Til The Band Comes In

Here on the outskirts of life
Its a world with the voice of a caretakers wife
Im leaving tomorrow dont let it bring you down
Stick around and around and around and around.
Til the band comes in
And the clouds begin to open
Til the band comes in
And we hear them all as one
Ill be back again
If you promise that youll write me
Til the band comes rollin in.
Keep your friends
With their windows so high
Keep your city
With children that shine through its eye
If you need me to move thru
You know where Im found
Still alive with my subhuman sound to the ground.
Til the band comes in
And the clouds begin to open
Til the band comes in
And we hear them all as one
Ill be back again
If you promise that youll write me
Til the band comes rollin in.
The times we sat and sang of all the hidden things we knew
Did they ever come up true
Cant remember, cant remember
And its the time to sing a song
Across the emptiness between us
And remember.
