|
Make a hole with a gun perpendicular |
|
To the name of this town in a desk-top globe |
|
Exit wound in a foreign nation |
|
Showing the home of the one this was written for |
|
My apartment looks upside down from there |
|
Water spirals the wrong way the sink |
|
And her voice is a backwards record |
|
It's like a whirlpool and it never ends |
|
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
|
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each others majestic presence |
|
Listen Ana hear my words |
|
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you |
|
All alone at the '64 World's Fair |
|
Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all" |
|
Who was at the DuPont Pavilion? |
|
Why was the bench still warm? Who has been there? |
|
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire |
|
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot |
|
And in the back of the edge of hearing |
|
These are the words the voice was repeating: |
|
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
|
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each others majestic presence |
|
Listen Ana hear my words |
|
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you |
|
When I was driving once I saw this painted on a bridge: |
|
"I don't want the world, I just want your half" |
|
They don't need me here, and I know you're there |
|
Where the world goes by like the humid air |
|
And it sticks like a broken record |
|
Everything sticks like a broken record |
|
Everything sticks until it goes away |
|
And the truth is, we don't know anything |
|
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
|
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence |
|
Listen Ana hear my words |
|
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you |
|
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
|
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence |
|
Listen Ana hear my words |
|
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you |
|
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
|
And we still haven't walked in the glow of each other's majestic presence |
|
Listen Ana hear my words |
|
They're the ones you would think I would say if there was a me for you |
