[00:02.15]
[00:09.41] I came to you and you to me
[00:12.59]
[00:13.84] And we were tapping
[00:15.34] On the window of the children
[00:17.65] When the piggy-bank broke
[00:19.30]
[00:22.13] Pitching quite a fifth
[00:23.89]
[00:27.73] But how the makers of the medicine
[00:30.61] Will always say you're looking sick
[00:33.04]
[00:41.64] I came to you and you to me
[00:44.82]
[00:45.95] And we would wear up to the women
[00:48.29] Washing new in the form of white gloves
[00:51.69]
[00:54.11] But the funny thing was how in in God
[01:00.81] And his people were dreaming about
[01:02.77] The wilds to leave
[01:04.66]
[01:08.12] And all the fingers that we damaged
[01:10.33] When all we wanted was a diamond ring
[01:13.09]
[01:20.55] I came to you and you to me
[01:23.28]
[01:24.48] And we were barking at the drug dogs
[01:26.88] Blood-dried-black on their hands
[01:29.53]
[01:31.27] Never realized
[01:32.99]
[01:35.73] You never tussle with a giant
[01:37.65] Till you can hit him right between the eyes
[01:40.52]
[01:43.65] That no matter how we chose 'em
[01:45.47] We'll be chocking on the compromised
[01:47.83]
[01:51.02] Cause all the jaws all the claws
[01:52.74] They're restless by the riverside
[01:55.08]
[01:58.35] And it was a muscle and a shadow
[02:00.23] That was shoving us into the light
[02:03.10]
[02:08.89] I came to you and you to me
[02:11.52]
[02:12.30] And we were snatching out
[02:13.40] A poor baby's bottle
[02:15.06] Just to trade it for change
[02:16.93]
[02:18.46] But now it's come to pass
[02:20.22]
[02:22.73] The every eye beneath the mountains
[02:24.59] Saw the smoke and no one heard the blast
[02:27.12]
[02:29.68] And no one knew the arm was broken
[02:31.35] And although everybody signed the cast
[02:34.08]
[02:36.56] Until the compliment was good
[02:38.23] She said man I thought you'd never ask
[02:41.25]
[02:43.51] And when the world wore out their welcome
[02:45.25] They just booked up for a bag of grass
[02:47.94]
[02:50.41] But when she cried on the grounds
[02:52.10] We were sucking all the laughing gas
[02:54.68]
[02:57.36] And when the hat had left
[02:58.73] The body not a flag was hanging on us
[03:03.61] U-u-uh
[03:06.44]
[03:54.70] I came to you and you to me
[03:56.91]
[03:57.88] And then we lost our own lovers revolution
[04:00.54] But then it all started again
[04:02.33]
[04:04.20] Now we're one
[04:05.65]
[04:07.98] One of the parade wailing widows
[04:09.64] Walking home into the setting sun
[04:12.62]
[04:15.04] One of the soldiers lost
[04:16.60] And then dreams and never lose their gun
[04:19.17]
[04:21.75] One of the wise-men wondered
[04:23.42] Onto the podium without a tongue
[04:25.81]
[04:28.54] One of the trophies' corners
[04:30.06] By the mess we made of being young
[04:32.15]
[04:35.34] One of the Wrayers one of the promises
[04:37.03] Swallowed without chewing gum
[04:39.12]
[04:42.28] One of the deaf ear's dumber
[04:44.02] All of the time for all the years of drums
[04:47.35]
[04:49.52] One of the wide-eyed soap boxes
[04:51.49] Buried under washing time
[04:53.95]
[04:57.14] One of the bee-cops combing
[04:58.74] Every sidewalk-crack for love
[05:02.04]
[05:05.65] One of the crowded stars uncounted
[05:08.36] When the math was done
[05:10.56]
[05:14.61] One of the weather in the garden
[05:16.86] Left to wonder when the rain will come
