So we drive and we've driven ten thousand miles In our hometown sink back into the driveway Which is Zen The head in the stars Or the body in the chair A saving grace at odds with technology A saving grace Eighteen with a bottle of water Cold jeans and the face of Gibraltar How many trunks of your goods How many goods do you give away I'm spellbound when I can't move I stand in front of you I'm flipping back through pages Of your calendar and your books And your childhood and your looks I try to move in your direction Against the grain of time I'm hoping to recollect My thoughts and motions I pray to science and history Like cancer doesn't grow I worship and forget you Bye worship and forget you A saving grace And holding on to what we've made As it drags us by the legs Across the living room Put the children to bed For a good night for tomorrow
