lyrics

Should I come to write over a thousand other lines,
Still I would not find the one to reach you.
To sing ever so slightly out of time
And just the slightest touch out of tune.

To see how love has kept you alive,
Is a thing at which to pause and to revere.
Your imperfections shining into brighter, falser lights.
As you move into an ever farther near.

So come on home, lovely, come on home.
Save me from these tyrannic dreams.
Come on home, won’t you come on home
Be the whole of what you are to me.

When all the answers belt me in the face
And crush me down into the dust I breathe,
Do I modify or purify the absence at my right
Or still pursue the fiction I believe?

To see how I've come to keep all this in line,
Even in the trenches of your reign,
Is to know that love has kept you alive
Without the faintest blemish on your name.

Come on home, lovely, come on home.
Save me from these tyrannic dreams.
Come on home, won't you come on home
You'll see exactly just what I mean.
