Doesn't Just Go

I who took the words out before they were formed You who came marching over the hill without hesitation I know how uneven we were I forgot more than you'd ever learn You who used to fill my room now chase out all the air And time that grew wings to fly Moves molasses slow When love starts to leave it doesn't just go When love starts to leave she doesn't just go INSTRUMENTAL Love gets heavy like pulling an oak across the road She returns uninvited, she doesn't go all at once Cracks ribs like pine logs in a cooking stove She mocks the carriage that once held her We're not emptied to be filled, we're filled to be emptied out Maybe we're allowed to pick up the burdens to learn to put them down Time that grew wings to fly Moves molasses slow When love starts to leave she doesn't just go When love starts to leave she doesn't just go INSTRUMENTAL Give me ten thousand watts to my chest Maybe it could bring me back, back from this Ten thousand watts to my chest Maybe it could bring me back, back from this Ten thousand watts to my chest Maybe it could bring me back back from this Give me ten thousand watts to my chest Maybe it could bring me back back from this Time that grew wings to fly Moves molasses slow When love starts to leave she doesn't just go When love starts to leave it doesn't just go
