I didn't go to Washington, instead I swept the floor. The only things I've ever done you can't see anymore. I knew there would be magic but I turned at the last chance.
You said, "Everything sounds right". I say, 'everything is beautiful. I'll get to see you tonight. And wake up to your smile". . You said, "Everything sounds right".
You thank me all the time. But now it's my turn. 'Cause truly a word of gratitude so due. Can't go unheard. . And it made me feel better. To have you there in my corner.
Oleander, Oleander. Will you bloom again this spring?. I adored you, then I ignored you. And now to me youre everything. . And those white blossoms that you gave freely.
There is just one apple on the tree. It isn't like I hoped it'd be. Yesterday when there was still you. I looked and I swear that I saw two. . Maybe a wandering white-tailed deer.
Oh late bloomer, the rumors were true. You know I checked your ID when you left the room. I didn't want to see it coming, I showed off my heart. Now there's a scar in the shape of a question mark.
I think it'll float. I think it'll sail. We may take on waves. Hit a gale. . But considering this love. Most everything. Says I think it'll fly. And I think it'll sing.
Well, now how did they get that lady on TV?. Laughing so naturally for a Walmart ad. Is it not as bad as I thought?. . There's a woman sending poisonous mail.
How deep in the valley. Must you go. To find what your footsteps. Already know?. . The way on is the way out. There are signs to follow. There is deep in the valley.
When the days close on. The memories that you've acquired. And your body. Cannot hold your soul inspired. . You are here and not alone. Everybody has come home.
If they blow a hole in my backyard. Everyone is gonna run away. The creeks won't flow to the Great Lake below. Will the water in the wells still be okay?.
Woke up. In my head I heard your voice saying something. Deep in the fog that was covering me. You said, "Why don't you call or at least call back sometime?".
