lyrics

So it seems that I’m all thumbs
Whenever talk of parting comes
I hardly know quite what to say
If it was up to me you’d stay

But in the distance church bells ring
Inside a fat church lady sings
Dare me to ask her if she knows my
“Love Grows When Rosemary Goes”

Enjoy your new home in the sky
Where Bobby Ewing didn’t die
He’s in the shower making steam
Was just an overwhelming dream

So if you ever feel ashamed
Don't wanna cry or assign blame
Just take the one truth you can't face
Press a button and erase

Give my regards to Juliet
Oh I'm so glad she's finally wed
And now she wears Romeo's ring
True love should know no suffering

I say to you The Man Upstairs
When you take an interest in our affairs
Please send her back to me again
Inside an overwhelming dream
