Minor Works Songtext

von J. Tillman

This may be the last
That you hear
For a long time

Because my mind just went blank
When i saw
What the years had held
How the pieces fell

And everything that you said
That you'd do
I can see was time well spent
How i wish the same were true
Those minor works i put you through

If we'd gone through this
And i caught
Just a fleeting glimpse

Well i'd run like a dog
On the scent
Of what could have been
Of what i've been doing

And everything that you said
That you'd do
I can see was time well spent
How i wish the same were true
Those minor works i put you through

And i heard you wrestling
For a spot
Next to Jacob
Or Elijah
Reveal
Reveal yourself
To me and no-one else
To me and no-one else
