You walked out to The Apostles 
All the way across the water 
And you came back burning ember 
At least that’s how I remember 
And you raised your hand so all could see 
Dropped it hard when we were all leaving 
That’s when the willow started to buckle 
But we both know it’s not that easy 
And you called me out 
Yeah you called me out 
You curse the mountain 
And you curse the sea 
When you reflected you reflected back on me 
In cars and motels and bars and pews 
Where typewriters burned and papers flew 
I won’t laugh unless you’re laughing, too 
I swear I won’t ever laugh at you 
Lamplight burst and fever broke 
You lost your nerve and you missed the joke 
I won’t laugh unless you’re laughing, too 
I swear I won’t ever laugh at you 
And you called me out 
Yeah you called me out 
You curse the mountain 
And you curse the sea 
When you reflected you reflected back on me 
Inside before the skies opened up 
You went down before you felt the cut 
I held out my hand to help you up 
I didn’t mean to let you down so easy 
And I’ve read and reread the words you wrote 
“This is doomed, this is sinking boat” 
I didn’t mean to let you down so easy 
Don’t worry darling, I’m just leaving
