Among the Leaves
Sun Kil Moon

A pillow lays on cold cement, a blanket by a broken vent

She's there a while, and then she's gone

I'm away for weeks, arrive at night

She hears my steps, turns off the light and runs

No mind at all, more space than I need

It's just me among the weeds, among the ghosts, among the leaves

We've never met but she's a girl

Romance paper books

The floor is covered in long blonde curls

On afternoons I walk the graves

The rusted cars, the mine shaft caves

See a girl sadly unkempt, a child of neglect

Under moons I pass the tombs

Cross the highways, smell the fumes

See a girl frighteningly gaunt, somebody didn't want

How do I tell her I don't care, if she sleeps downstairs?

-

I see her on my errand runs

Looking nervous like a young Mia Farrow

Walking 'long the gas stops

Window browsing pawn shops, guns, bows and arrows

Up on past the Halfway house

Past the signs Eighty South, Buttercup and Carrows

Drinking Wild Irish Rose

At the dead end down the road, sleeping with the sparrows

When evening comes I play guitar

For the planets and the stars

I leave the porch light on like I do when I'm gone

Winter, spring, summer, fall

Basement's yours, have a ball

There's always room for you there... really baby I don't care
