| He slammed a deck of cards on the table wicked hard
|
| And said «Feel free to count them, if you want»
|
| I had better things to do, and knew there’d be fifty-two
|
| I said «I'm good, thanks,» acting nonchalant
|
| He went on from there
|
| He waved them in the air
|
| «A normal deck of playing cards,» he said
|
| «Pick one!» |
| he barked at me, but do not let me see it
|
| I didn’t pick a card, I left instead
|
| Just a little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now
|
| A little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now
|
| She had a god’s eye up on the beautiful bonsai
|
| She hung the rosary beads around the Buddha’s neck
|
| A dreamcatcher fell and rang a sacred bell
|
| Near the Hindu tapestry that was a wreck
|
| I heard the bell toll when I struck the singing bowl
|
| With a crystal that I found behind the chimes
|
| Flipped through a copy of *Eat, Pray, Love*
|
| I didn’t judge her, no, I don’t sometimes
|
| Just a little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now
|
| A little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now
|
| You’re nowhere right now to me
|
| You’re nowhere right now to me
|
| Bonnie Blackstone and Monday moon beams
|
| I dream of dragons and a rainbow ice cream
|
| Rockets' red glare and chemical warfare
|
| You might be here, but you are nowhere
|
| You are nowhere!
|
| Just a little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now
|
| A little bit closer to nowhere
|
| A little more somewhere somehow
|
| As close as can be without actually
|
| Being nowhere right now |
