// Lyrics //

The scene then was daylight failing,
You on the sidewalk, me at the railing.
A raincloud growled low in the distance —
My sorrow, my engine, warming its pistons.

“I can’t live without you,” I said.
You were grinning.
Such are the swamps that we swim in.

Wherever you go, the sun ought to shine,
Though it won’t shine for you all of the time.
But clouds are just clouds,
And mirrors just sand.
And if you should want me,
You know where I am.

Old songs on the radio play.
I can’t feel ‘em.
Will I someday?
Strangers walk slow past my window.
Kind, gentle people, maybe,
But how will I know?

I wish I could hate you, but I cannot do it.
You are my fortune, my ruin.

Wherever you go, the sun ought to shine
Though it won’t shine for you all of the time.
But clouds are just clouds,
And mirrors just sand.
And if you should want me,
You know where I am.

I work and I wash and I laugh when I can,
But I don’t feel nothing,
And no one understands
Why I miss you — my shackle, my jailer, my jail.
Memory’s the vessel.
Time is just a sail.

I still can’t live without you,
And you’re still here grinning.
Such are the swamps that we swim in.

Wherever you go, the sun ought to shine
Though it won’t shine for you all of the time.
But clouds are just clouds,
And mirrors just sand.
And if you should want me,
You know where I am.
