lyrics

Home to get my mind together
Time away is good to some extent
I can’t compose my thoughts without you
Put me on the spot, I’ll pay you rent

Repetition makes me dizzy
The same shit comes around, ‘cause we don’t change much
I’ll be driven less than busy
Time alone enables one to arrange such

Home to let my mind be scattered
Sit among the stuff that came before you
Lacksidaising less than centered
Though certainly aware that I adore you

You can’t expect me to say the right thing every time we talk
I don’t expect that I’ll think the right thing ever
I love you, and you know it, but I’m practicing my walk
And I expect we’ll be like this forever

Home again to sleep without you
All this will dissolve into the past
I’ll be saying something stupid
To test you from a point descending fast
And when it’s gone, I’ll drop unto you
You’re the only home I need or have

Time alone has taught me well but...
