eddie berman - joann lyrics

Loading...

it’s hard to tell which way you’re going
when that salty shadow’s cast across the sun
in the brine of venice shallows
where the twisting of our roots have come undone

maybe our hearts lie over the ocean
maybe we never should’ve stepped out of this wreck
i’d k!ll to stand at two roads diverging
instead of here where fifty thousand intersect

and if i’m restless
like the gulf of siam
won’t you hold me
like the wolf that i am
and when i’m hard up
just shackle my feet
and throw the keys in the street, joann

i wish that i could know just how you’re feeling
beyond the way a farmer know his field
but i’ll proudly bow to your condition
better still, i will bear witness to your yield

someday we will lay in okinawa
or that island off the coast of greece
and we’ll live to be a hundred
unconcerned with silver apples or golden fleece

and if i’m restless
like the gulf of siam
won’t you hold me
like the wolf that i am
and when i’m hard up
just shackle my feet
and throw the keys in the street, joann

if our new civilization
our tributary, aching for the sea
if it dies off trying to get there
well i think that’d still be good enough for me
