lyrics

Read about us in a book about Missouri
We weren't so much the characters
As the loss of you and I
Was as plain as Williams' prose

So we are of the world after all
We should have known that
We're always when and were
In the tense of every book you are always there

To a woman or to a poem
It said, simply: Look! I'm alive!

So we are of the world after all
We should have known that
We did know it I believe
So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little

So that we could make our deal with time
Because we'll never be in the present tense again
That's the deal we make with the past
Trade us in for growth, it's all that we can ask

To a woman or to a poem
It said, simply: Look! I'm alive!

So we are of the world after all
We should have known that
We did know it I believe
So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little

I can see you in the margin there
A printed place we will always share
A pretend life we can always dare
We can always dare

Two little lives so very far
So far away we don't even call
We're going to have to pretend
And withdraw

So we are of the world after all
We should have known that
We did know it I believe
So we had to withdraw a little, pretend a little
