in the summer that you came
there was something eating everyone
and the sunshine fund was low

we couldn't greet you
with a simple hello


and the watchers of the flood
were busy in their chambers
making sure there was new blood

to sustain their dying veins

but i believed you

no need for further questioning
i'm gonna leave with you
you can teach me all you know

which way will we go now
on our trip to taller windows
i really don't know now

i really don't know

in the winter that you left

there was business as usual
with the same old fears and frustrations
but the word got out

it was really such a pity

but the judges and the saints

and the textbook committee
decided you should be left out
not even mentioned


but i believed you
no need for further questioning

i'm gonna leave with you
you can teach me all you know
which way will we go now

on our trip to taller windows
i really don't know now
i really don't know
