Not one motion of her gesture could I forget 
The prettiest bag lady I ever met 
Pushing her cart in the rain 
Then gathering plastic and glass 

She watched the day pass 
Not hour by hour 
But pain by pain 
If I was a basket filled with holes 

Then she was the sand I tried to hold 
And ran out behind me 
As I swung with some invisible hands 

I stopped believing, you start to move 
She was like wine turned to water then turned back to wine 
I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed 
And you can pour us out and we won't mind 

I was dead, then alive 
She was like wine turned to water and turned back to wine 
You can pour us out, we won't mind 
A scratch around the mouth of the glass 
My life is no longer mine 

If you're still looking for a blanket 
Sweetie, I'm sorry, I'm no sort of fabric 
But if you need a tailor 
Then take your torn shirt, and stumble up my stairs 

And mumble your pitiful prayers 
And in your tangled night's sleep, our midnight needles go to work 
Until all comfort and fear flows in one river 
Down on the shelf by the mirror where you see yourself whole 
And it makes you shiver 

I stopped believing, you start to move 
She was like wine turned to water then turned back to wine 
I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed 
And you can pour us out and we won't mind 

I was dead, then alive 
She was like wine turned to water and turned back to wine 
You can pour us out, we won't mind 
A scratch around the mouth of the glass 
My life is no longer mine 

Our lives our not our own even the wind plays still. All I felt was fire and bone 
And movement, movement 
If they ask you for a sign of the Father 
Tell them it's movement, movement (of hope)
