andrew bird - distant stations lyrics
[verse 1]
i found an old rock
in the dry dirt outside
the door of my motel room
it was a triangle
with soft, round edges
and a split down the middle of one corner
it was darker than english moss
green like the soft frills of a peac-ck’s plume
[chorus 1]
i waited for you
but i never told you where i was
it was you who taught me
how to write these kinds of equations
and i waited on the steps for you
and i hid in the bushes whenever a car pulled into the parking lot
you taught me how to listen
to these
distant stations (distant stations)
distant stations (distant stations)
distant stations
[interlude: instrumental]
[verse 2]
i saw the sky break
i threw a rock at a crow who was playing in the mulch of some rosebushes by the motel office
and i missed him
by a good yard or two
and i sang old songs from nowhere
los angeles to albuquerque
i said a small prayer for the poor and the naked and the hungry
and i prayed real hard for you
[chorus 2]
i waited for you
but i never told you where i was
it was you who taught me
how to write these kinds of equations
i waited on the steps for you
and i hid in the bushes whenever a car pulled into the parking lot
you taught me how to listen
to these
distant stations (distant stations)
distant stations (distant stations)
distant stations (distant stations)
distant stations (distant stations)
i waited on the steps for you; distant stations
(distant stations)
these kinds of equations; distant stations
(distant stations)
the naked and the hungry; distant stations
(distant stations) aw yeah
i prayed real hard for you; distant stations
(distant stations)
[outro: instrumental]
