Chapter And Verse

I feel you like a dream of a hearse

I know you like the angle of the Sun

That hangs above me like an ancient curse

That echoes in my ears when the day is done

For what is lost I will rehearse

For I’ve memorized it chapter and verse

I walk the line in the white out time

I sit alone not lonely in the dark

The laws of karma like a nursery rhyme

Every breath I take every move I make leaves a mark

Yeah this is how worse came to worse

And I’ve memorized it chapter and verse

Got no plans but time on my hands

You on my mind and nothing but time

Got no plans and nothing to hide

Time on my hands and you on my mind

Who are you, I never knew

You played so many roles upon my stage

Father, mother, lover, friend

I said I’d stay until the story’s end

(Well, I guess this is the end)

What’s done is done, I can’t reverse

‘Cause you’ve memorized it chapter and verse

But what will save me from my worst

These fragments of chapter and verse

Got no plans but time on my hands

You on my mind and nothing but time

Got no plans and nothing to hide

Time on my hands and you on my mind
