Tangle in This Trampled Wheat

And so many days of longing now Why should it ever be this far? Where I get frightened I could never gather birds enough to carry 'round your part But I see traces of your thoughts out here I see a sight; I hear a sound I only comfort in the brittleness of days when I can Hold what I just found In the untired eyes of the laughing child And the dirtiest sweater he owns Early sun warmed mine And all those life-like sins That will pull out the memories to show I'm not leavin' alone I'm not leavin' alone If just that weather-beatin' plane was here Haven't seen it since I came Can only wonder if it's near or in the skies When this damn city sounds the same And sometimes I'm just a tangle in this trampled wheat Shirk a-like a losing dog If just tonight that I could be where you are near And just forget where I am lost In the untired eyes of the laughing child And the dirtiest sweater he owns Early sun warmed mine And all those life-like sins That will pull out the memories to show I'm not leavin' alone I'm not leavin' alone
