On a bus ride into town I wondered, "Why am I going to town?" As I looked around At the billboards and the stores I thought, "Why do I look around?" I got up and bowed And I kissed the filthy ground And in the first dry spot I found I laid back down Without having to wonder Why I was laying down Before long I was too cold And so I took a bus back to the station I found a letter left by a pay phone With no return contact And it read like a horn blown By some sad angel: "Bunny, it was me It was me who let you down" It was the shyest attempt I'd ever seen at conversation If I didn't have you as my guide I'd still wander lost in Sinai Counting the plates of cars from out of state (How I could jump in their path as they hurry along!) Until you surround me You're pretty but you're all I can see Like a thick fog If there was no way into God I would never have laid in this grave of a body For so long St. Cyril's fair always came through The first week of September But it's already the 19th And there's no sign of it yet I have a hard time remembering The things I should remember And a hard time forgetting All the things I should forget Oh Christ, when you're ready to come back I think I'm ready for you to come back But if you want to stay wherever exactly it is you are That's okay too - It's really none of my business And if I didn't have you as my guide I'd still be wandering lost in Sinai Or down by the tracks Watching trains go by to remind me: There are places that aren't here I had a well but all the water left So I'll ask for your forgiveness With every breath If there was no way into God I would never have laid in this grave of a body So long, dear
