Feel stupid as a dog in space
Ain't nothing you can do or say about it
When you know what you know, it will not let you go
You hit me in the place that hurts
You put me in the hole you're digging there
You want what I've got or what's left of it
You had a lot of luck she said, she said
You had a lot of luck.
Here's my heart - take my heart
Why don't you bury it, why don't you bury it?
Here's my heart - take my heart
Why don't you bury it, why don't you bury it?
Coo ca choo - i just want you
I want to turn you around and look at you
No dragging your ass behind
You've got a lot of nerve, she said, she said
You've got a lot of nerve.
Here's my heart - take my heart
Why don't you bury it, why don't you bury it?
Here's my heart - take my heart
Why don't you bury it, why don't you bury it?

Child's Play

We walked on out to the tip of the sound
- and we rolled in the surf like seals there
And she sang songs to the dolphins and whales
- that moved through the deep water
We laughed we run we tumble over each other, sprawl in the long grass
and you touched my hand and I wept like I was in heaven
Tremaine was born on the 5th of July
And she grew like a wild flower
Plays with love as a dangerous game
Runs deep as the still water
She runs she laughs she twists inside of herself to land where she ought to
Because from on your back you can see straight up into heaven
New York in fall - Paris in the springtime
All the different places we could go - revolving like the backdrop of a show
If I couldn't live without you.
To be standing in the places I didn't want to go
Looking at the faces I never though I would know
Clearing of the lines for her to step in to
Thinking of the things that it might mean to you.
Then we walked on out to the tip of the sound
Walk on out to the tip of the sound.

Lost Hymn

Let me go
Let me return
I have seen what I should see, and what I must learn
The moon grows, the moon shrinks
But I am written on the sun
She must mean or suffer
Let me go
Let me return
I have seen what I should see, and what I should learn
The moon grows, the moon shrinks
I am written on the sun
Written on the sun
