lyrics

tiny little point where the light pours out
writing down what’s said
still notes to finish as the time runs out
almost had it

arrive in style
gettin' there was so hard
can only take it so far
out of things to say

and when she smiles
I see it in a new light
shorter as the crow flies
a stone’s throw away

and I’ll be coming down her way

and then you find
the little things that she hides
only shows the good side
ate all the grapes

until next time
they’re giving you a new chore
something new to live for
your turn on the stage

a zillion times
sorting through what she said
angels on a pinhead
photographs and tapes

so pick your side
whichever one that you’re on
the old one or the new one
you know they’re the same

maybe I called it in too late

arrive in style
gettin' there was so hard
can only take it so far
elevate the day

and when she smiles
I see it in a new light
shorter as the crow flies
a stone’s throw away

and then you find
the little things that she hides
only shows the good side
ate all the grapes

until next time
they’re giving you a new chore
something new to live for
your turn on the stage

a zillion times
sorting through what she said
angels on a pinhead
photographs and tapes

so pick your side
whichever one that you’re on
the old one or the new one
you know they’re the same

I guess I called it in too late
