You've Got Me Wonderin' Now

(album: Tally All The Things That You Broke - 2013)

Cavity click keeps the rhythm, keeps it moving
Any day it's gonna crack
Popcorn kernel, olive pit, at any moment smashed to bits (yeah)

Toothache's better than heartache baby
I've figured that much out
And I thought I knew a thing or two about the blues
But you've got me wondering now

Dog-eyed kindess (naïve and trusting)
Fans the purest flame of morning fire
But once it fizzles out into charred, formless evening
How do you ignite without turning to ash (yeah)

Seasick's better than heartsick, baby
I know that much by now
And I thought I knew nausea from sea to cars

But you've got me wondering' now
But you've got me wondering' now
But you've got me wondering' now
But you've got me wondering' now

Forced into morning, tempted into night
Tally all the things that you broke
Bending her branches, snapping, sapping and writhing
For me alone

Yeah, I guess sunburn's better than heartburn (barely)
I know that much by now
And I thought I knew a thing or two about the blues

But you've got me wondering now
But you've got me wondering now
But you've got me wondering now
But you've got me wondering now
