lyrics

lolling in in impossible washed out white
the Autumn light throbbed and winced
wide open

rain came, washed all the buses away
and I could see how it'd be easy to stay
I doubt it

cuz if we don't already know
there's a vacancy posted at the Whaler's Echo
I wanna take you where you think you'd like to go
and there's just no quelling this
if we stifle it there's no telling where it'll end up
I know

the restraint it takes not to wake you at eight
and the weight of my devotion
are welcome strains in these derelict days
a break from all the aimless motion

they quartered off the orchard with a chainlink fence
so we put on our shoes and backed your car out of the ditch
down to the Hudson with a stolen honeycomb
to watch the sun go down behind the condominiums

as if we don't already know
there's a vacancy posted at the Whaler's Echo
I wanna take you where you think you'd like to go
and there's just no quelling this
if we stifle it there's no telling where it'll end up
I know
