From the recording Glad Days
Lyrics
THE END FROM THE MIDDLE
Coming to the morning
Half awake and dreaming
Minutes turn to hours
Can’t remember the end from the middle now it seems
I’ve got a superpower
We’re jumping from a tower
To find that it is leaning
Can’t remember the end from the middle now it seems
Every time I close my eyes I see a wonderment above
And every time I realize it’s gone gone gone
The sun comes up behind the stars shining just because
And every day’s a reason to go on
The why of things is funny
Lost the plans got no money
Do we make the zero hour
Can’t remember the end from the middle now it seems
Every time I close my eyes I see a wonderment above
And every time I realize it’s gone gone gone
The sun comes up behind the stars shining just because
And every day’s a reason to go on
Hanging on to little things that disappear behind a song
Keeping all the meaning in a tiny glitter box
Everything is all that’s left when all you are is gone
And I’ll love you always
It’s 2 o’clock in Birdland
Working on the old man
The preacher to the choir
Can’t remember the end from the middle now it seems
