Ana Ng |
Make a hole with a gun perpendicular |
To the name of this town in a desktop globe |
Exit wound in a foreign nation |
Showing the home of the one this was written for |
My apartment looks upside down from there |
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink |
And her voice is a backwards record |
It’s like a whirlpool and it never ends |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
All alone at the '64 World’s Fair |
80 dolls yelling «Small girl after all» |
Who was at the DuPont pavilion? |
Why was the bench still warm? |
Who had been there? |
Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire |
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot |
And in back of the edge of hearing |
These are the words that the voice was repeating |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
When I was driving once |
I saw this painted on a bridge |
«I don’t want the world, I just want your half» |
They don’t need me here, and I know you’re there |
Where the world goes by like the humid air |
And it sticks like a broken record |
Everything sticks like a broken record |
Everything sticks until it goes away |
And the truth is we don’t know anything |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
Ana Ng and I are getting old |
And we still haven’t walked in the glow |
Of each others' majestic presence |
Listen, Ana, hear my words |
They’re the ones you would think I would say |
If there was a me for you |
