Finishing The Hat
Yes, she looks for me, goodLet her look for me to tell me why she left meAs I always knew she wouldI had thought she understoodThey have never understoodAnd no reason that they shouldBut if anybody could
Finishing the hatHow you have to finish the hatHow you watch the rest of the worldFrom a windowWhile you finish the hatMapping out a skyWhat you feel like, planning a skyWhat you feel when voices that come through the window?Go until they distance and dieUntil there's nothing but sky
And how you're always turning back too lateFrom the grass or the stickOr the dog or the lightHow the kind of woman willing to waitNot the kind that you want to find waitingTo return you to the nightDizzy from the heightComing from the hat, studying the hatEntering the world of the hatReaching through the world of the hatLike a windowBack to this one from that
Studying a faceStepping back to look at a faceLeaves a little space in the way like a windowBut to see, it's the only way to see
And when the woman that you wanted goesYou can say to yourself, well, I give what I giveBut the woman who won't wait for you knowsThat however you liveThere's a part of you always standing byMapping out the sky
