it doesn\u2019t matter that we don\u2019t\nknow the way what is lost\nanyway but just an excuse\nto be found\n\nthe road ahead a bow untied\nand behind ribbons fall\naway twisting blue black and\nred as veins\n\nthe mind wanders\nthe heart stays\n\npress your face against the glass\nfog it up with your dreams\nabout losing yourself in some\nwhistle-stop town\n\nbut i know you better than that\nyou get restless when that\nwhistle stops you\u2019ll follow some\nother pied piper\n\nthe mind wanders\nthe heart stays\n\nsome souls are leaky baskets\npouring out over the floor\nto be mopped up by some fool\nyou\u2019ll never know\n\nthe mind wanders\nthe heart stays \n\nepw 12.16.07 perrysburg, oh
