Lyrics
She said, "Lemme help you carry your things,"
Cause I always seem to take two trips
To get from one place to another,
Brothers, doin' their own things.
As if life galloped like horses
Under a starry dream of night,
But it ain't true for one second,
And I know, cause I stuck around.
She said, "Did you get everything?"
Cause I got the tendency
To leave stuff behind
Like shadows in my past
And poems that didn't rhyme.
And it's all a humble victory,
A different where? A different why?
The scenery changes and the people
Come and go as they please.
I'm waitin' around with my arms
Jammed in my sleeves
Wonderin' when my time will come.
So I say,
If you can't see clearly what you want,
I must be in your way.
So I say,
If you got somethin' goin' on for you,
Be on your way...
I'll see you some other day.
She lights a cigarette
As I unload all my things from her car.
It was very late and that made it seem
Far from home, for both her and me
And the moon isn't out tonight.
I try desperately to retire in the silence
And the world in its 2AM slumber
There's just no time to spend.
So I say,
If you can't see clearly what you want,
I must be in your way.
So I say,
If you got somethin' goin' on for you,
Be on your way...
I'll see you some other day.
Some other day.
