Who knew
At this party that i
Would walk in and i’d see you.
I guess now
We could just get drunk
Yeah, that could be our excuse
You could slip
From out of nowhere
I could be there to catch your fall
We could laugh
At ourselves
And the writing that’s on the wall

It’s a narrow margin
Just room enough for regret
In the inch and a half between
Hey, how ya been?
And
Can i kiss you yet?
So we talk, like
Nervous neighbors over a tall fence
True love, but for the lack of providence

But i just got one more
Thing to tell you

‘cuz words are vitamins
And life is short
And i know when we get up
To the front office
We’re gonna have to fill out
A full report
And the first question will be
What were you thinking?
And the next question will be
What did you say?
Then they’re gonna check to see
If the answers to one and two
Matched up much
Along the way

In the interest of poetry
And the cowboy movie
That’s you and me
I’m back on the horse now
And i am riding
I am striding so effortlessly
What i mean is
It’s late
Much to late for us
And i’m fixing to go home
With just my conscious
And a bitter sense of irony
As my chaperone

True love, but for the lack of providence.

I talk to you in turbulence
That’s when i see the light
But she has visions on the hillside
Then she speaks in tongues all night

You’ve got such a faithful little servant
Why don’t you pay her no mind?

Chorus
She prays for providence
She needs a little more of your attention
She waits for providence
Just a little intervention

She was driving out on highway 1
She felt the presence of something strange
She could not tell if it was alien
She only knew her life would change

If you were sending down a message
Why do you hang her on a line?

She prays for providence
I don’t know why you cannot hear her
She waits for providence
Are you just waiting to be near her

Are you thinking something
And not letting on?
Will she understand what you planned
Before she’s gone?

"watt here! i’m downstairs from your window… if you’re up…
Pub ‘phone booth… if you’re up…(i get tense) [beep]"

"thurston! watt! thurston! i think it’s ten thirty, we’re calling
From providence, rhode island. did you find your shit? you gotta
Watch the motin’ thurston, your fuckin’ memory just goes out tha window.
We couldn’t find it in the van at all, we wonderin’ if you looked in
That trash can. when we threw out that trash, man, was the bag in
Your hand, did you dump it? call later. bye."
