lyrics

1.
Do we ride our bikes around
the circle in the cemetary, weaving?

I wave up to you on the cross.

Am I to come upon you suddenly
like this, forever—happy, relieved
you are here?

And I can see you.
I can feel you.

I can see you.

2.
You are like the ticket-half
I find inside the pocket of my
old leaf-raking coat.

There all the time, all the while,
forgotten.

I so often seem to leave you
in churches and other islands
and on my beads.

Where I can see you.
I can feel you.

I can see you.

3.
I take the ticket-half and
put it on the table saying:
this is God and he’s here
through my comings
and my goings.

But I walk past the ticket-half,
I walk past the ticket-half,
I walk past the ticket-half—
just as I’ve walked past the cross
on our wall.

Our self-importance grows so
dazzling, we don’t see you
(dazzling, we don’t see you,
dazzling we don’t see you).

(But) gentle Jesus,
aren’t you always,
aren’t you ever hour here? (x 3)
