Even Now

[Verse 1]
I can’t help but keep a lookout
Try to find the way it worked out
Covering my loneliness nowhere
See it for the art at any rate
To suffer and not change

[Verse 2]
Change my heart almost daily
Mother me with warmth and safety
Bound by the days we spent them through
Held by the eyes I look at you, hmm

[Verse 3]
Bustling through Barcelona
Feel the heart inside her
Working by the hammer sees you through
Working by the light makes us two, hmm

[Verse 4]
Tired of protecting my loneliness
The greatest thing I’ve known is holiness
When there was hunger you held me
When I was only 23, hmm

[Verse 5]
Watch me in my great departure
Daughterhood to greener pasture
Distance is required
Distance is desired
Even now

[Bridge]
Climb on board my slow train, baby
To suffer and not change
Won’t see you through
Bound by the days
We spent them through
I see you in your glory, there you are
Gentle in its action, falling star
Simple in its knowing
Words without a home

[Outro]
I can’t help but keep watch darling
Distance is required
Distance is desired
Even now
