Southern minnesota in the year of 1997
There was a great natural light in the sky
And people ran in fear
And i was so concerned with the welfare
Of the woman standing nearest to me
That i didn't notic
Looking down from the apple tree
My hands tied in back of me
With this rope below my chin
We don't fear death my adrian
Trust me son that one day soon
You'll be on the bottom where the boat breaks

Well she told me let's stay out late
Let's stay out late
Let's walk the world
Well she told me, it was my mistake
My mistake
Amphetamine girl
She told me let's stay out long
Let's stay out long
On
Sleeping in a cherry tree
High above a monastery
Where the bells are ringing slow
To say farewell when hours go
And all the while I'm dreaming of
The ballad for my one true love
Searching for the per
I left my country when i was nineteen
1925
And drifted to a town on the Cuban coast
Met a woman who became my life
And oh when i saw her
Darkness fled from me
And flew like a blackbird into the sun
This is not a conquering
I am not conquered
Even as the helicopters come for me
My wife sleeps in her clothes in the corner
I'm looking down at the police on the street
We all woke on this planet toge
It might have been some other story
Our book must have been bought used

There's no street lamps on the road i take
I'm not blessed with brakes
I've got no place to be
The things i love always get up and go
Like they're late for a show
Well, late they'll always be
'cause
I thought i could live forever here on my own
It seemed things were so much better out here
alone
A lonely dreamer, a nonbeliever, now
I'm living in the moment with the friends i love

Make yourself at home, 'cause i'm going out
Across the street to get us some water
'cause this water's brown, and i'm so embarrassed
To have you here but i want you around
Usually i'd sing, or play you
Dawn breaks across our little room
You're sleeping silently and still
I love you and i always will
Good morning baby
Wake up you sleepy little thing
New leaves are blowing on the trees
Today i'll do
I went in to twelve bookstores looking for
ulysses
Motherwell led me to believe all my questions
would be answered
Now i have it here sitting on the table
Another word for the universe
Loose green tea
