Is there some freewheeling watcher Shooting marbles in the sky? Holding your years between their fingers Watching it burn till the fire dies Why is it heroic to untether? How is alone some holy grail? And if we really come and go unknown Couldn't I find myself in jail? Oh, keeper how I love you I love you and you and you And returning to myself is such a lonely thing to do But it's the only thing to do Is it evolving turning inward? Oh, what an easy way to be Only kneeling at the altar of The great and mighty me Let me break myself apart Instead and scatter to my birds Like a burial at sea To be the gospel without words Oh, my darlings how I love you I love you and you and you And returning to myself is such a lonely thing to do But it's the only thing to do There's no honor in the pilgrimage Until a soul returns To hold another's hand and then And only then it learns That life is like a stone Only skipping for a time Oh, it never really holds its own It'll never see the other side And I was born to love you I love you and you and you Oh, returning to myself is such a lonely thing to do Returning to myself is just returning me to you And that's the only thing I want to do
