Gone, advice from a side road
And a dying breath, yellow oak
Big tall weeds and leaves of gold
Now, a wasted clock hollow
And I'm not the drowning man you think
Though I flail my arms I refuse to sinkAll I ever wanted was to see
Scottish windows opening for me
It's all I ever needed in the endI saw you in a store window
Dress the orange window glow
Walking down a winding close
Gray evening fell over me
And I saw your face, though fleetingly
As the bus pulled away from me
All I ever wanted was to see
This glimmer in your eyes as they closed on me
It's all I ever needed in the endYou need different boots in this country
An' I see you through the screen door
Abandoned below in the birch's above you
You left me on the church floorAll I ever wanted was to see
Scottish windows closing as I leave
It's all I ever needed in the end
In the end, in the end
In the end, in the end
Do do do
Do do do
Do do do
