Counterpart

I can't remember the face of my wife,

But from halfway around the world I can smell her hair.

And every stranger that brushes by becomes the love of my

life,

Oh but I can't betray her, her arms are everywhere.

She said 'don't just touch, I want you to crawl inside,'

As she backed out the door with both hands on my gun,

Well I never knew my father,

So I guess I don't expect that I will ever meet my son.

Now I surrender, I'll go blind to her side.

I guess I'll spend the evening in the passenger chair.

Yes I've studied the scriptures, the guidebooks, the

maps,

Oh I drank, I drank, more from habit than thirst.

Somehow I never noticed that you only touch your shadow

When your feet are on the earth.

And I can't remember if I'm still on the train,

But I'll just trust the driver.

I just trust the driver.

Her arms are everywhere.

Please don't tell me where we're going.

Just drive. Just drive.

Please don't tell me where we're going.

I like to be surprised.
