lyrics

The wind it moves across the river
all the way into your hair
There is snow on the streets now
there is something in the air
I look out my window
sometime around 3 a.m.
There is nothing happening
There is nothing there
Oh but if you could see me right now
I'm just like the sun
I'm not really here

I put on my snow boots
and walk up to the hills
I see the sun shining
I see it in the air
Oh and if you could see me right now
I'm just like the wind
I'm not really here

Back in the day
You said I was both a loser and saint
On that's what she said
a loser and a saint
Oh and if you could see me right now
you 'd have your own sense
of what I'm getting at

The last time I saw you
was almost 10 years ago
Oh but if you could see me right now
you'd say 10 years is not even long enough

I made it through the last bottle
of second rate gin
oh the ceiling is spinning
but maybe that is the ceiling fan
I forgot to turn the heating on
Oh and maybe if you where with me right now
you'd tell me this cold
is not really here

"Satisfied with his care and the width of his belly, Lewis escaped and returned to San Francisco, where he was arrested after ripping open his clothing and asking passersbys to witness the divine light that burned in his breast."
