lirik lagu carousels – mewithoutyou (me without you)
on a bus ride into town
i wondered out loud “why am i going to town?”
and as i looked around at the billboards and the stores
i thought “why do i look around?”
and i kissed the filthy ground
and in the first dry spot i found
and i didn’t have to wonder why i was laying down.
before long i was too cold
took a bus back to the station
i found a letter left by a pay phone
with no return contact
and it read like a h-rn blown by some sad angel
“bunny, it was me… it was me who let you down”
it was the shyest attempt i’d ever seen at conversation
if i didn’t have you as my guide i’d still wander lost in sinai,
counting the plates of cars from out-of-state,
(how i could jump in their path as they hurry along!)
you surround me, you’re pretty but you’re all i can see,
like a thick fog – if there was no way into god,
i would never have laid in this grave of a body for so long.
and bonner fair always came through the first week of september
but it’s already the 19th
and there’s no sign of it.
yet i have a hard time
remembering all the things that i should remember
and a hard time
forgetting the all things that i am supposed forget.
oh christ when you’re ready to come back
i think i’m ready for you to come back
but if you want to stay wherever exactly it is you are,
that’s okay too – it’s really none of my business.
if i didn’t have you as my guide i’d still be wandering lost in sinai
or down by the tracks watching trains go by to remind me:
there are places that aren’t here.
i had a well but all the water left
so i’ll ask your forgiveness with every breath,
if there was no way into god,
i would never have laid in this grave of a body for so long, dear.
