Down on her street I've got someone I really want you to meet In good time, like all things A prayer for a plum Up all night, waiting for the mail to come In a lightless window I've been afraid to depend on love And it's fare thee well, my friend I'll see you at the promised land Where the wind is laughter And that home we never made Is waiting in the desert shade Happily ever after Down on her street, I've got someone I really want you to meet In good time, like all things Step into place, take my heart Put it in a pillowcase It's been still for hours We can get high down on Old Kings Road And watch as the lights explode I can get lost if you want me to And it's fare thee well, my friend I'll see you at the promised land Where the wind is laughter And that home we never made Is waiting in the desert shade Happily ever after Like a bird on broken wings I've been so afraid to sing All my life I've wanted In this violent world that spins I've been so afraid to live By the light of comets
