[00:00.38]There are times that walk from you
[00:05.43]Like some passing afternoon
[00:11.16]Summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon
[00:21.23]And she chose a yard to burn
[00:26.66]But the ground remembers her
[00:32.41]Wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms
[00:42.53]There are things that drift away
[00:47.56]Like our endless numbered days
[00:53.11]Autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made
[01:03.07]And she's chosen to believe
[01:08.23]In the hymns her mother sings
[01:14.02]Sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves
[01:23.76]There are sailing ships that pass
[01:28.91]All our bodies in the grass
[01:34.46]Springtime calls her children til she lets them go at last
[01:44.36]And she's chosen where to be
[01:49.41]Though she's lost her wedding ring
[01:55.38]Somewhere near her misplaced jar of Bougainvillea seeds
[02:05.03]There are things we can't recall
[02:10.14]Blind as night that finds us all
[02:15.77]Winter tucks her children in, her fragile china dolls
[02:25.55]But my hands remember hers
[02:30.51]Rolling around the shaded ferns
[02:36.39]Naked arms, her secrets still like songs I'd never learned
[02:45.96]There are names across the sea
[02:51.14]Only now I do believe
[02:56.60]Sometimes, with the window closed, she'll sit and think of me
[03:06.51]But she'll mend his tattered clothes
[03:11.54]And they'll kiss as if they know
[03:17.12]A baby sleeps in all our bones, so scared to be alone
[03:29.26]
