" "
Children come running to the truth
But you've got to peel the skin to get the fruit
And while one's living high another's grieving
But what's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening
Oh - What's sweet by morning is bitter by the evening.

Just to hear it fall is the sweetest sounding thing.
And to see it fall on your simple country dress
