The fourth song from the bands fourth album Puzzle. The song documents Simon’s final attempts to save his mothers life before her death.
[Verse 1]
There's a man on the corner selling dozens of bones
Every type of bone except the one that I want
Ever think what your eyes do when trying to sleep
Or where your tongue rests, is it against your teeth?
[Chorus]
But now, it's bigger than us
It's bigger than everything it decides to touch
[Verse 2]
Asleep is the safest place you can be
You can try hard to catch it, it just catches you
Imagine a camera coming up from your feet
Relax all your muscles, son, just hope your heart's in one piece
[Chorus]
Now, it's bigger than us
It's bigger than everything it decides to touch
It's bigger than a halo, a devil, an angel, and a crow
The bone's got the wrong detail, I hoped it would have
Save for a shinbone or even a hand
[Bridge]
Such a lonely ride, such a lonely ride
Such a lonely ride, such a lonely ride
Such a lonely ride, such a lonely ride
Such a lonely ride, such a lonely ride
[Chorus]
Now, it's bigger than us
It's bigger than everything it decides to touch
The bone's got the wrong detail, I hoped it would have for you
Save for a shinbone or even a hand
[Outro]
There's a man on the corner selling dozens of bones
Every type of bone except the one that I want
As Dust Dances was written by Simon Neil.
