lyrics

SUNDAY PRAYER, xliii


Time & time again,
a single, giant grain of sand.
Good God won't laugh at this new plan,
He'll see it's fool-proof, just like Man,
just like bears don't need a reason,
sleep it off until next season.
Yesterday's papers in the fire.
Yesterday's widows out for hire. I am, I am.


Time & time again,
bend a good heart from left to right,
we watch it break before our eyes,
you never meant to hold so tight.
Growing up is about commitment,
being an adult is about decisions.
Play the field, then work your part.
Young in the face, too old at heart I am, I am, I am.


But you're a birthday,
deep with the dayshine.
From dusk to moonbreak,
the dust of keepsakes.


Time & time again, I am, I am.
