(Mary Chapin Carpenter) | |
Today Joseph is sitting alone, with occasional nods to the waitress | |
She tops off his cup while she's snapping her gum, making her rounds on the lunch shift | |
Counting out coins, he leaves them arranged, in neat lines and circles and arcs | |
She just stares at the tip that spells out her name and ideas are like stars | |
And yesterday pedaling down 4th Avenue, between the stalls and the bookshops | |
The sepia tones of a lost afternoon cradled a curio storefront | |
And inside the air was thick with the past, as the dust settled onto his heart | |
And here for a moment is every place in the world and ideas are like stars | |
They fall from the sky, they run round your head | |
They litter your sleep as they beckon | |
They'd teach you to fly without wires or thread | |
They promise if only you'd let them | |
For the language of longing never had words, so how did you speak from your heart | |
Yet here is a box that swears it has heard that ideas are like stars | |
Tonight Joseph stood out in the yard, as Debussy played from the kitchen | |
Celestial companions 'til mornings first lark, shone overhead and he listened | |
And who was that shadow there by the gate, who was that there standing guard | |
It was only loneliness, and loneliness waits, and ideas are like stars | |
Ideas are like stars |
