[ Featuring the Willows ]
Wait till the morning to rise and it breaks
All over the tiles in the kitchen sink
The water it's flowing like it did before
But this time it's sinking all over the floor
Oh but that night before it reached the moon
All tangled in cotton, and tangled in you
But that's how it goes, oh most of these days
A poor wish to welcome is a wish for you to stay
So I'll keep on shuffling through all the mud
Pretend like the last night we were in love
But can you imagine how strange it must feel
To share all our worlds to have you disappear
But you've been on my mind
Yes you've been on my mind
Through the window watch you leave
I stay behind and I start to clean
Up all of the mess that comes in time
We've done before each and every time
You think I'd learn by day by now
To move on softly, move on loud
But craving closeness in the silence of night
Numbs all the nightmares of being alone tonight
But you've been on my mind
Yes you've been on my mind
Yes you have my dear
So watch the water build and spill all day
Can't keep swimming lonely through these waves
So watch the morning rise until it breaks
Where you my dear, you leave and sail away
You've been on my mind
You've been on my mind
Oh I've been told myself a time
To let it go, let it die
And I've been told a time or two
I don't need sailors, and I don't want you
