Break Even lyrics

everybody`s leaving, they`re going far away
they`re taking nothing that might remind them of today
they`re sweeping out the ashes and singing to the breeze
they only know that they`re best to believe
they only know that they`re best to believe

from the highway of diamonds I sent you all my love
I sent you good news every time they wished me luck
and now I`m passing by the brakeman who says just wait and see
he only knows that he`s best to believe

he only knows that he`s best to believe
he only knows that he`s best to believe
the peddler and the parson asked for no reprieve
they only know that they`re best to believe

the October ladies, they`re just standing still
they talk of flying and being buried on a hill
they`re shipping out this morning, they`re praying for godspeed
they only know that they`re best to believe
they only know that they`re best to believe

all of your disappointments are hoping for a rest
they`ve asked for nothing except wishing you the best
of all that you have imagined but you never really see
they only know that you`re best to believe

they only know that you`re best to believe
they only know that you`re best to believe
a sister and a brother might be just a dream
but I only know that I`m best to believe
a sister and a brother might be just a dream
but I only know that I`m best to believe
I only know that I`m best to believe
I only know that I`m best to believe
