All of Creation Groans

lyrics

Babe, dream of me
I'll think of you when I'm wide awake
While I'm still half-concerned
'Bout what happened to all the day
My mother said I was born with itchy legs
Like my dead grandfather was
And baby, they've been killing me today

And sleep is a hard feeling to fake
Yeah, sleep is a hard feeling to fake

My busted heart seems to be healing up quite fast
Nurses tell me if I get some rest
It might be fit for you to have
But just so you know, when it starts running from my past
I fear that if I let it go
It could bust right out of my chest

And I don't wanna get any blood on your hands
No, I don't wanna get any blood on your dress

My, can't you hear the nighttime moan?
All of creation groans,
Waiting to be reborn

My mother said I was born with itchy legs
Just like her whole family had
And half the northern European states

Say that love is a hard baby to make
Yeah, love is a hard baby to make
Love is a hard baby to make
