[al:Unrepentant Geraldines] |
| [00:12.40] |
The other America |
| [00:19.74] |
You can find her Sundays |
| [00:24.06] |
Sitting by a stream |
| [00:28.16] |
On her own |
| [00:31.18] |
All alone |
| [00:34.99] |
The other America |
| [00:42.04] |
Might show up on Tuesdays |
| [00:46.44] |
At your kitchen door |
| [00:51.10] |
She will ask politely |
| [00:55.58] |
"Is anybody home? |
| [01:01.99] |
Or did they all lay down |
| [01:08.63] |
To sleep through the now |
| [01:14.34] |
And if they all lay down |
| [01:20.60] |
I'll be waiting for them |
| [01:27.56] |
At the river bed |
| [01:32.97] |
Once they wake from their rest" |
| [01:40.79] |
|
| [01:42.77] |
The other America |
| [01:50.06] |
Takes herself to night school |
| [01:54.52] |
To understand the law |
| [01:59.16] |
She may bring you questions |
| [02:03.67] |
When she finds the flaw |
| [02:09.99] |
"Why did they all lay down |
| [02:16.57] |
To sleep through the now? |
| [02:22.40] |
And if they all lay down |
| [02:28.40] |
I'll be waiting for them |
| [02:35.76] |
At the river bed |
| [02:40.86] |
Once they wake from their rest" |
| [02:47.86] |
|
| [02:52.10] |
We could be opening a doorway globally |
| [02:55.84] |
But that's okay |
| [02:58.33] |
Once upon a time you had faith |
| [03:01.26] |
You would not be swayed |
| [03:03.57] |
By fools untouched by clairvoyance |
| [03:07.34] |
And you swore that we'd be brave |
| [03:10.89] |
Well not today |
| [03:13.92] |
No not today |
| [03:19.72] |
Because we all lay down |
| [03:25.79] |
To sleep through the now |
| [03:31.66] |
And if we all lay down |
| [03:38.17] |
She'll be waiting for us |
| [03:44.92] |
Where the rivers cross |
| [03:50.40] |
Once we wake from our rest |
| [03:56.70] |
"All the best," The Other America |
