Original Goodness

Original Goodness
Close your eyes and let it come to you
Sorry, from this side I can't look at you
From this side I can't look at you

Sometimes I hear you
But it's my voice, out of my head
I saw you mouth something from a mountain
How do we go through hell and then just go to bed?

Ordinary devotion
That is what she gave you
And what I gave up when you gave it to me too
How do I add up if I'm half of you?

Maybe between worlds
I can show you all my letters
How I'm a lefty when I want to
How I can hold my breath under water

And I will tell you
How to close a chasm with a clothespin
How it can come undone for good reason
How to renew without a season
