Wittgenstein’s Arm Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey there now, did I hear your voice
Ringing out in the early morning
Did I hear you singing right through the night
Out there while I was rolling

[Verse 2]
Did you see my brother lying in the ditch
Knuckles all scraped and the powder on him
Passing like a shadow right through the night
Through my days and through my mind

[Verse 3]
Love is dead and truth is empty
It won't heal and it won't save me
See that girl in the checked white skirt
I'll hold her tonight and maybe it'll work

[Chorus]
Love is all
A white dove in the snow
Passing through
Like a bright new moon
Mama froze
Women's blood once flowed

[Verse 4]
Death runs deep in this family
Writes a song for the left hand only
Lost my arm in the first Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before

[Verse 5]
See my brother drinking from the glass
They say he died with his eyes wide open
Poison flowing right through the veins
Glass of milk fell from his hands

[Chorus]
Love is all
Love is all
Find the right way home
Time is all
Time is all
Find the right way home
Powder moon
Powder moon
Find the right way home
Time is all
Time is all
Find the right way home

[Verse 6]
Hey there now, did you hear my voice
Ringing out in the early morning
Did you hear me singing right through the night
I wonder if you'll ever get tired of this

[Verse 4]
Death runs deep in this family
Write a song for the left hand only
Lost my arm in the first Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
I wish I'd never learned that piano before

[Chorus]
Love is all
Love is all
Find the right way home
Time is all
Time is all
Find the right way home
Love is all
Love is all
Find the right way home
Time is all
Time is all
Find the right way home
