lyrics

There's a game show on, so I look at that
Weird holes punched in the giant board that glides across the set
They time their jumps so their bodies fly on through
Soundless spectacle to stare at in this waiting room

Where should I go if I've been moving through life like a series of holes?
Stepping in and out of sets of clothes that stretch before me
Tediously? And on my bedroom floor
Socks pile like so many cast-off shells

But you've got a ticket, you've got a plan
Move up to the redwood coast
Settle in among the waves and ghosts
Make yogurt from a herd of goats and write

Well, I prayed that God would hear my prayers and start existing
And then start listening
No dial tone on the telephone with a line up to the sky
Scoured my box of alphabet blocks, looking for the Y

Yeah, I saw your shoes with the creases across the leather toes and I was moved
There's nothing permanent, they'll be worn then wear away
The world bends itself around your body until you're gone one day
O great tenderness when I see the marks the sheets leave on your face
I was moved
I was moved
I was moved
I was moved
