When I walk, I hear
Many sounds all dis-
-tinctly clear, nothin
Gets washed out and
When I walk, I see
All around, nothin
Comes too close to block
Nothin out and
I
Got it all to myself
My kingdom here, so
Lie
To me now all you like
I don't mind
Or need
You near

Are you all that you want
when you dream?
Are you everything you always
Thought you could be?
And if I'm not,
What does that mean?
And if you don't choose her
You better say so
And if I'm a loser
Then why did you stay so
Long tripping on the best possible outcome?
Am I so low?
Sometimes I say yes
When I wanna say no
Let's take it slow
We got all day
And I've nowhere to go
♪
Sometimes I wonder,
Was anything learned?
Was it stupid or cruel?
Man, the whole thing's absurd--
I’m not gonna watch as you tumble and burn,
So just go
Once, I had hope for us
Once, I was bold and
Once, I was strong enough to bear the load
But once was enough
And now twice you've been told
Amnesiac--
Or is it me who denies how it seems?
I take it back
I know what it means, what it means when I
Dream what I dream

You're a typhoon

The great lakes warm,

Swingin on your front porch
Shaded from the heat
In your summer short shorts

And I miss you
I hope you're alright
I remember stayin' up all night
Last June

Swingin on your front porch
Shaded from the heat

Kick up some dust on Little Run
You said I
Gotta get out

I've arrived, I lied
Naked on my back
Watching as you dress
Could I love you less?

Wasn't how I planned
Leave my empty hand
Take the weight

Last
Time I'll
Catch you running around
As I
Circled for days
Round the scent of what I never found

John,
When I think about you,
I wanna go back
To that place we shared
Just sittin' all summer
In the window by the fountain,
In the heat
That we could hardly bear
Is that for you?
I can't say
Was it you or I
Who walked away?
Now I watch you
Stumble in
Turn over on the carpet
Tell the same story again
And your eyes roll back
As you laugh in a sweat,
And I'm lookin' for you
But I can't see through all that
Oh buddy,
Oh baby,
I just
Want you back

How strange,
To wake up to find
The one I knew
All rearranged
Such a marvel
What the light can do
Call, sister, I
Have no place to turn
Call, mother, I
Have so much to learn
All I ever
Could have offered
Never would have
Made you follow
Yet--I wondered,
Yet--I bothered,
Building where
The ground was hollow
Leave me my home--
All through the winter
Leave books on the table
Let me alone--
Quiet nights,
Time to find peace
If I'm able

Waves of echoes
Rise up from the road
Hear the swell of footsteps
They come and they go,
And they talk in a murmur
To someone they know
Can I take this with me
Wherever I go

Feel the quiet dark,
How the cold runs so deep
In the cradled oxbow,
The old crooked creek
And I lie on the water,
Too breathless to speak
Dare I beg my maker,
This moment, to keep

Circle circle, drips like blood
All over the clean birchwood
And rocky hillside, melting tar

Will it ever come back down to you and me?

The clouds are above the clear sky below
The cold's everywhere but there's no sign of snow
And circle circle, spin in my head
Would you lay me down dizzy, daunted in bed

People come and go
And we all move so slow
Bet we don't even know
But circle circle circle us all
We're all needed somewhere, though we're all so small
