Best To Believe

歌詞

She stands and unfurls her Clean bed clothes by the door Like a barber shakes all that falls From your shoulders to the floor; And I find a letter I’d once written Half buried in her drawer And I wonder how I’ve come to know So much less than I knew before. All over town, they’re lining up to watch As the carnival goes by, And tomorrow they’ll be sweeping up the streets And the last furloughed G.I.s; But by the early evening, You’ll wonder how it is and so will I That we ever let another Tuesday afternoon Come and pass us by. But I’m best to believe No more than I can carry when I leave, And I’ll be fearing nothing save good luck. Somebody’s burning something I can see the smoke from here Rising just above the hill and falling Like one last futile cheer; If I would’ve known the way it goes l’d’ve been the first to volunteer To climb up in the trees before aIl the ground around me disappeared. But I’m best to believe No more than I can carry when I leave, And I’ll be fearing nothing save good luck. But I’m best to believe No more than I can carry when I leave, And I’ll be fearing nothing save good luck.
