How could it be
That tendons bound to bones with in my feet
Were bound to believe
That they should move themselves to up and leave
I should say that I'm sorry on their behalf
I should say something funny
But you will not laugh
I didn't see the steps they took
Had taken you from me
Where would we be
If I let myself be swept away to sea
I would cry out to tell you
But you'd not be there
I would cry out to tell you
But you wouldn't care
Oh, I could lead a stationary life
Oh, you will see and you'll believe
My love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong sometimes
Sometimes my bones are wrong
Oh, I know I'm not leavin'
Oh, I know I believe it
So do my bones
That tendons bound to bones with in my feet

I didn't see the steps they took
Had taken you from me
Where would we be

I would cry out to tell you

Oh, you will see and you'll believe
My love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong sometimes
Sometimes my bones are wrong
Oh, I know I'm not leavin'
Oh, I know I believe it
So do my bones
