lyrics

CARIE'S HANDS

A blind man bluffing, hearts in his sleeve.
A wise man learning the scriptures in leaves.

Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands.

An old man sweeping hearts on the floor.
A new man rowing cloud-colored oars.

Carie's hands, make an example of me.
Carie's hands, within and without me always.
Carie's hands, Carie's hands.

Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about

when morning comes
and duty calls
from widow walks.
I can't feel at all

Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands, Carie's hands
I think about, I think about
Carie's hands.
