Sign of the Times

17

Dedicated to Clint, the Romany Wicca mechanic from Tennessee. May we meet again soon.

These songs were written between 11/08/04 and 4/07/05. 17songs. 17 is the number of the tarot Star card, the number of hope. Blind unwavering hope. May these 17 songs help in some way help rebalance whatever karmic debt I may owe.

THE ONLY THING LEFT

Synchronicity...it's synchronicity
You slam right into me
And we collide
Always in the right place
At the wrong time
I retreat...I resist...I resign

Now, I...I have to explain myself
I have to show you that I'm for real

AND IT'S THE ONLY THING LEFT
BUT IT'S THE HARDEST THING
THE ONLY THING LEFT I CAN DO
IS PROVE MYSELF TO YOU...

Possibilities...endless possibilities
The possibilities
Make my stomach sick
You could be receptive
Or you could close your heart
I am at your mercy and in your debt

How...how can I stress this enough?
How can I urge you enough that I am real?

ANDTHE ONLY THING LEFT
IS THE HARDEST THING
BUT IT'S THE ONLY THING LEFT I CAN DO
TO PROVE MYSELF TO YOU...

I wonder where you are
I wonder if you're far
And if you can hear my call
I give everything I have
Everything I can
I give you it all....

Electricity...electricity
You were right in front of me
And I bough out
Can I get another change?
Could I have another try?
Can I make it up to you somehow?

And I...I would do everything
I would do anything to convince you I'm for real

AND THE ONLY THING LEFT
IS THE HARDEST THING
BUT IT'S THE ONLY THING LEFT I CAN DO
TO PROVE MYSELF TO YOU...
