I've forgotten what fall looks like Weather wets the string and threads another week of 85 degrees While blood clots at the turnpike Bachelors wander pockets stuff with rings I'm disappearing daily to the trees The future's near I'm hoarding every penny from the street in case we're out of change Before your reappear Remind me of the life between monotonies Digging our new place to be I've created something tiny Jeopardy: what is a DMZ? A trench, a safe of light and shadow for our dreams That's right The future's near I'm hoarding every penny from the street in case we're out of change Before your reappear Remind me of the life between monotonies And all the week spent struggling to spell sentences Like "I am here" and "We are fine" Carving out small corners of the sky for you and me Let's count up the days of our separate stories Let them count against our separation You said with conviction, "There must be time for us somewhere." I quick-clicked off the stopwatch and led you into the trees The future's here And now it's safe to settle From under here We'll block the city with our thumb It took a year But now there's room for anything So many possibilities Like weeks to spend on sentences Like "We are here" and "spin the globe" I did my best to make a little home I did my best to make a little home I did my best to make a little home For you and me
