Lamb / Hail Mary Blue

[Lamb / Part 1]
If you catch me sleeping
You'll catch me dreaming that you're here
And if you wake me
Then just like magic, you'll appear

And when the ocean was a little girl
She had a dream that she'd break up the world
But even she couldn't do it
Even she couldn't do it

If you catch me leaving
You'll catch me leaving you behind
And how could I do it?
How could I treat you so unkind?

And when the morning was a little boy
He had a dream he'd make the sun his toy
But even he couldn't do it
Even he couldn't do it

If you catch me lying
You'll catch me lying to myself
And if you tell me
I'll go and send me off to hell

And when Jesus was a little lamb
He took the lonely ones up in His hands
But even he couldn't hold them
Even he couldn't hold them

Now at night, she slips through
Now at night, she threads between me and you
Now at night, she slips through
Now at night, she threads between me and you
Now at night, she slips through
Now at night, she threads between me and you
Now at night, she slips through
Now at night, she threads between me and you

[Hail Mary Blue / Part 2]
Hail Mary Blue
Blank as a Greek's lost head cut in two
The Dutch Boy dissolved in lead

On the moon
The dark spots are growing bright
Dream come true
A stomachache in the night

On the wind
The kite is a palimpsest
In the end
You're sleeping for someone else

[Outro]
Watch the patterns change in bristling brindled black
Speckled night comes down to spackle up the cracks
But I don't trust it, not at all
What's that shifting at the wall?
