Two Places at Once

Arrive in a hive city
 somewhere in the east
 floating down a crowded street
 as though I am or I will be released
 Elly's stopped yawning, clear blue morning
 In mourning no more
 Come and see the wild things that are
 Just beyond the door
 (Well) There's an old man here
 He claims that he knew you in another life
 I'm not sure what he's sayin', Elly,
 Could it be he still thinks you're his wife?
 I've been waiting, seems like eternity
 I've been waiting waiting for you
 I'm still waiting if you remember me
 I'll be waiting, waiting for you
 Trinkets sing on a desert wind behind here
 Where ghosts have laid their final claims to rest
 But who they left and what they thought they stayed for
 Has crumbled in their last dusty caress
 They were so blind (rpt.)
 (Steve)
 Hiding in a hotel room, somewhere in the west
 I heard they brought a priest in to sanctify the place
 But it remains unblessed
 Things move around - my guitar sometimes plays itself
 They say it's static electricity but
 Yesterday it took twenty dollars off the shelf
 There's a young man here, says he married you
 In another time
 The children cry and ask where their mother is
 Gonna have to let them down
 Yeah, I've been hurt, I've been around
 I've been waiting...(rpt.)
 Limpet shells are fading in the vally
 Where once the sea had strength enough to reach
 But out of the twisted metal of discarded fortune's curse
 No-one here can quite translate thes that they wanted to preach
 They were blind
 They were so blind (rpt.)
 I've been waiting, seems like eternity
 I've been waiting, waiting for you
 I'm still waiting, if you remember me
 I'll be waiting, waiting for you
