Joe Henry - Stop lyrics

Don't tell me to stop Tell the rain not to drop, Tell the wind not to blow Cause you said so; Tell me love isn't true It's just something we do, Tell me everything I'm not But don't tell me to stop Tell the sun not to shine Not to get up this time, Let it fall by the way, Leave me where I lay; Tell the leaves not to turn But don't tell me I'll learn, Take the black off a crow But don't tell me to go Tell the bed not to lay Like the mouth of a grave, Not to stare up at me Like a calf on its knees; Tell me love isn't true It's just something we do, Tell me everything I'm not But don't tell me to stop
