  • We just had to ask
    Maybe some one out of heaven
    Would hear us down here

    We couldn't bear to stand
    How the people leave us waiting
    For something up there

    Oh, why did you leave?
    Why won't you come?
    And save us again?

    Come back to us spiders
    Come uncrushed my hand
    Let me sent beauty rain
    And bring us love again, like you can

    We just didn't know
    Some one there outside of heaven
    Heard us down here

    We couldn't stand it here
    Other people leave us longing
    For something up there

    Oh, why did you leave?
    Why won't you come?
    And save us again?

    Come back to us spiders
    Come uncross my hand
    Let me sent beauty rain
    And bring us love again, like you can
    [2x]

    So much time, we need to ask everything
    How did it go, you need it I got it

    Come back to us spiders
    Come uncross my hand
    Let me sent beauty rain
    And bring us love again, like you can
