Brook Revisited

Brook Revisited

Have you ever seen someone with dreamcatchers for teeth

Islands in their eyes and fire in their speech

Hair grown like the willow tree and water runnin' in their name

And so how could you blame

A river born is water that was meant to move

How could I catch water that ran through my youth

Everyday I wonder what you turned into and what you became

Are you the very same

Are you the very same

Brook who told me you're the one I needed

I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'

Oh, I never knew if it was okay to feel it

Oh, I suppose I should know

The past is void, and all the future’s too

And neither will make sense just as they never do

Julie called me up and when she asked me if I heard the news

I knew that it was true

I knew that it was true

When Brook told me Drew’s the one you're leavin'

I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'

Oh, I never knew if it was okay to feel it

Oh, I suppose, I should know

The loudest prayers are silent in the way they move

The greatest secrets ever found are in my youth

We’re all just a couple kids with dreamcatchers for teeth

Islands in our eyes and fire in our speech

Tryin' to find some freedom from the troubled streams of form

That's why I feel it all

That's why I feel it all

When I told Brook you're the one I needed

I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'

Oh I never knew if it was okay to feel it

Oh, I should know, I should know

You leave, you turn me to see my

Body’s just a monument the spirit bleeds in

Drawn in like the river, drawn in like the brook, and

Oh, I should know, I should know

You’re never comin' back

You're never comin' back

You're never comin' back

You're never comin' back
