Lyric Fragments (Dar Williams)

and it felt like a winter machine that you go through and then
winter starts again, and everyone else is springbound
  tonight i went running
through the screen doors of discretion
if you're gonna get your heart broke
you'd better do it just right
 
  you never know who understands

but i fear to fall in love with you
is to fall from a great and gruesome height

 
  I like the way these people read the signs
and walk away
what's the rush, dip your brush
into this twilight
there are leaves upon the skylight
Trace your hand, trace your hand
 
  and the ones that can know you so well
are the ones that can swallow you whole
all the static waltzed around me  
 

so tonight i turned your station on
just so I'd be understood
instead another voice said i was
just too late
and just no good

the moon wanted more of my night  
Then I'd go outside to join the others - I am the others!.
