[00:00.52] Casimir Pulaski Day - Sufjan Stevens
[00:01.81]
[00:16.03] Golden rod and the 4-h stone
[00:18.88]
[00:19.51] The things I brought you
[00:21.08] When I found out you had cancer of the bone
[00:24.62]
[00:29.98] Your father cried on the telephone
[00:32.79]
[00:33.54] And he drove his car to the navy yard
[00:36.92] Just to prove that he was sorry
[00:38.94]
[00:44.15] In the morning through the window shade
[00:47.72] When the light pressed up against your shoulder blade
[00:51.48] I could see what you were reading
[00:53.03]
[00:58.37] Oh the glory that the lord has made
[01:02.08] And the complications you could do without
[01:05.60] When I kissed you on the mouth
[01:07.91]
[01:27.69] Tuesday night at the bible study
[01:30.93] We lift our hands and pray over your body
[01:34.56] But nothing ever happens
[01:36.20]
[01:42.02] I remember at Michael's house
[01:45.05] In the living room when you kissed my neck
[01:48.72] And I almost touched your blouse
[01:50.96]
[01:55.76] In the morning at the top of the stairs
[01:59.43] When your father found out what we did that night
[02:02.93] And you told me you were scared
[02:05.27]
[02:09.65] Oh the glory when you ran outside
[02:13.69] With your shirt tucked in and your shoes untied
[02:17.30] And you told me not to follow you
[02:19.49]
[02:53.57] Sunday night when I cleaned the house
[02:57.14] I find the card where you wrote it out
[03:00.25] With the pictures of your mother
[03:02.07]
[03:08.04] On the floor at the great divide
[03:10.57]
[03:11.11] With my shirt tucked in and my shoes untied
[03:14.62] I am crying in the bathroom
[03:16.77]
[03:21.79] In the morning when you finally go
[03:25.34] And the nurse runs in with her head hung low
[03:29.19] And the cardinal hits the window
[03:30.62]
[03:35.98] In the morning in the winter shade
[03:39.68] On the first of march on the holiday
[03:42.70]
[03:43.61] I thought I saw you breathing
[03:45.06]
[03:50.15] Oh the glory that the lord has made
[03:53.97] And the complications when I see his face
[03:57.05]
[03:57.69] In the morning in the window
[03:59.32]
[04:04.58] Oh the glory when he took our place
[04:08.26] But he took my shoulders and he shook my face
[04:11.84] And he takes and he takes and he takes
