Finishing The Hat Lyrics - Always - Kelli O'hara

Yes, he looks for me, good 

Let him look for me 

To tell me why he left me 

As I always knew he would 

I had thought he understood 

They have never understood 

And no reason that they should 

But if anybody could 

Finishing the hat 

How you have to finish the hat 

How you watch the rest of the world 

From a window while you finish the hat 

Mapping out a sky 

What you feel like, planning a sky 

What you feel when the voices that come from the window go 

Until they distance and die, until there's nothing but sky 

And how you're always turning back too late, from the grass 

Or the stick or the dog or the light, how the kind of man 

Who's willing to waits, not the kind that you want to find waiting 

To return you to the night, dizzy from the height 

Coming from the hat, studying the hat 

Entering the world of the hat 

Reaching through the world of the hat like a window 

Back to this one from that 

Studying the face, stepping back to look at a face 

Leaves a little space in the way 

Like a window but to see 

It's the only way to see 

And when the one man that you wanted goes 

You can say to yourself, "Well, I'd give what I'd give" 

But the one man who won't wait for you knows 

That however you live, there's a part of you 

Always standing by, mapping out the sky 

Finishing the hat, starting on a hat 

Finishing a hat, look, I made a hat 

Where there never was a hat
