Who did you say you were, I didn′t catch your name
Falling down to earth, down from a higher plane
Oh, it's been decades, say, what did you seeOh, I′ve been so lonely, won't you keep me company
Do you remember me, we met out on the farm
By the fire you spoke to me and held me in your arms
The songs you played for me I long to understand
"All Along The Watchtower" and "Castles Made of Sand"
When there was a wilderness we wandered wild and free
Guilt, she is the governess that guides me back to grief
What if we were dumb enough to spend eternity
Gathering the garbage washed up on the beach
Do you remember me, we spoke by telephone
The bad connection had a meaning of its own
Of all the good and all the stupid shit I've done
The worst was all for me, not hurting anyone
When there was a wilderness I wandered wild and free
Guilt, she is the governess that guides me back to grief
Wish that I was old enough to end the century
Gather all the garbage washed up on the beach
