Follow Every Finger

i remember one day you\nsaid you’d leave for a while\ni thought some people should never smile\ni thought what a spot you put her in\nbut the realness of each answer\nwas put in question by each grin\nand it was a goodbye off a television\nyou talked full and fast with no seams of indecision\nfull and fast your defense against her grief\nif your mind was on a mission\nit was a mission of relief\nand oh you’re out following every finger\noh to still a doubt but still it linger\nyou just have to be an animal\nto hear her overtones\nthrough the letters and through the phones\nyou been on that trail like a cause of birth\nnot to have what you track down\nbut to find out what it’s worth\nand oh even big girls cry\nyou kept everything so clean\nall that soap hurts her eyes\nyou kept everything so clean\nit might have slipped your mind\nthe knot was small but\nthe knot was tight\nand oh you’re out\nfollowing every finger\noh to still a doubt but still it linger\nyou just have to be an animal\nto feel her overtones\nthrough the letters and through the phones\nyou been on that trail like a cause of birth\nnot to have what you track down\nbut to find out what it’s worth\nand it’s so tough keeping\nevery time fair\njust to love once\nwithout having to care\njust to love once without\ncracking the spell\nof relaxing into a pleasure\nthat you know so well\nand oh you’re out\nfollowing every finger\noh to still a doubt but still it linger\nyou just have to be an animal\nto hear her overtones\nthrough the letters\nand through the phones\nyou been on that trail\noh you been on that trail\nyou been on that trail\nsince you were born\nnot to have what you track down\nbut to find out how it’s worn\nlanding only when your wings hurt\nyou’re out following every finger
