The sidewalk bends where your house ends Like the neighborhood is on its knees You're surrounded by a chain link fence That keeps me out but let me see Well, I come by most every night The shutters pounding in the breeze A clothesline strung like paper kites That blow my words right back at me But someday when my heart exhales I'll tell you everything Those sweet words spilling all about us I'll say please, please be with me And I'll breathe so easily But instead I'm turning blue I look at you And keep my stupid mouth shut The hall light streams out through the screens And the shadows capture me in webs Just tangled up in what I've seen And every word I have not said, I have not said 'Cause the sidewalk bends where your house ends Like the neighborhood is on its knees
