lyrics

It's hard not to break
when the tectonic plates beneath your face
shiver and shake
I quiver and quake, tuned to your ways.

And love is blind,
like a spider is blind. It only sees motion,
won't you move your hand next to mine?

It's like growing a garden
or building a house:
Love takes your body
and spreads it out.

So when it rains on your porch
It pours in my room
and when your heart's broken --
I know, I live there,
feel the draft coming through.

When we first met I was thin
I could bookmark my page in life's story, slip in,
and not worry anyone. Then came your love
and it made me big.
I expanded.

So now when we meet I've got limbs all apart --
one foot in my dreams and one foot in your heart,
one hand in the dirt of the family farm
and the other in yours.

HARD NOT TO BREAK.

I've got you under my skin
and over it too.
I remind me of you.

I've got your hair on my clothes
and everyone knows
I remind me of you.
