If only you'd stay
In the water
To wade
It's only a rake
In the garden I made
It's only a rake
A dead dirty spade
It's enough to win me
Or dig me a grave
If only you'd wait
With a bottle
Where you lay
It's only a day
A tomorrow away
It's only a day
It's what these hours make
It's enough to win me
Or make everything change
If only you'd play
I have made up a game
You give chase
And a message
And wait
If only you'd play
Hammer and nail
It's enough to win me
Or send me away
If only you'd stay
In the water
To wade
It's only a rake
In the garden I made
It's only a rake
A dead dirty spade
It's enough to win me
Or dig me a grave
If only you'd wait
With a bottle
Where you lay
It's only a day
A tomorrow away
It's only a day
It's what these hours make
It's enough to win me
Or make everything change
If only you'd play
I have made up a game
You give chase
And a message
And wait
If only you'd play
Hammer and nail
It's enough to win me
Or send me away
