Time Waits

Someday there’ll be nothin' more to say
When life is seen as the dance of the seven veils
Each teaser reveals the beauty that was always already there
My body and soul and my car are not for sale
Some days are made of silent anticipation
Some days are just quarter-pumpin', cheap peepshows
Make-believe is all we have some of these days
Tie your money to your dog if you fear you might lose your way
The sun slips off each night to enjoy on the other side of town
Where barstools and dreamers and glasses all get refilled
Clocks and bar tabs are just numbers
And memories fighting gravity against the wall
Steam boat, fish light dancin' on the windows chill
The jukebox man never hits us with the latest
No, he just brushes the, the dust from the grooves
Of the songs we love
Drunk couple sayin,' «Baby no, no, you are no, you are no
You, you are the greatest»
Hellos and hornies, they’re squared off toe to toe
Someday there’ll be nothin' more to say
As life is seen as the dance of the seven veils
Each teaser reveal the beauty that was always already there
Body and soul and my car are not for sale
Body and soul and my car are not for sale
