Caleb Trask Lyrics - The Crane Wives

So you got bad in your blood 

Brother, you're one of us 

So you got bad in your blood 

How long you gonna wait for those azaleas to bud? 

"When the azaleas bloom," he said 

"When the flower blossoms spread, 

That's the day, that's the day, 

That's the day I'll love you 

That's the day, that's the day I'll love you" 

So you got bad in your blood 

Brother, you're one of us 

So you got bad in your blood 

How long you gonna wait for those azaleas to bud? 

If you might, then you may 

There's no reason to live bound in chains 

'Cause you're not alone 

We're the daughters of sinners 

We're the sons of saints 

When it's love turns you sour 

Only love can turn you back 

Stop waiting on the flowers 

Blood don't mean nothing 

In the end 

If you might, then you may 

There's no reason to live bound in chains 

'Cause you're not alone, 

We're the daughters of sinners 

We're the sons of saints
