Ballad of R & J

I’ll give it back if you want it All that time you wasted on it I dreamed of you in the car I wanna know how you are From August to October It felt like it was over Don’t wear yourself out me Don’t lie down about me Ricky felt alone now So he went to the store Gathered up some flowers To mail to Julie’s door The field so watery and wide Passes me on either side Didn’t talk to you today Doesn’t matter either way You know I like 'em cut With a certain I-don’t-know-what Dipped into the reserve Bathed in the dirt I deserve Julie had his flowers Taped up on the wall It's better to love Ricky From afar than not at all
