We Are All Beads on the Same String Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Rotted away the ides of your May

As far as falls from Grace are placed

I guess you're graciously effaced



[Chorus]

But don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down so gently



[Verse 2]

The wine is mine to serve

To dribble on your skirts

The napkin dab is a task best left for the guests to work



[Chorus]

But don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down so gently



[Verse 3]

Wholly incomplete

Or holy and complete

Don't I feel you when you weep



[Bridge]

We're all just beads on the same string

Seemingly discrete

Tethered inextricably

No eve ain't naive no more

No you've no use to know you anymore



[Chorus]

But don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down again

Don't you let me down so gently
