lyrics

Oh, I'm taking my time
your doorbell chimes
I'm glued to the floor

Oh, I'm nervous and cautious
I stick to my watches
I'm a calculator

I may never have faced you
but you're delicate and graceful
my elbows are sure

From here I see hints of your roots
a reemerging truth
you earned those silver hairs from all those books

I'm weepwalking 'cause you're sleep talking again, again
I have memorized the tops of your hands, and the top of your head, oh

I wanna go home
to the home in your heart
but I'm one floor up
and your apartment's dark
I watched you through a hole in the carpet
but telescopes can't harvest a garden
I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust
I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust

I'm weepwalking 'cause you're sleep talking again, again
I have memorized the tops of your hands, and the top of your head, oh

I wanna go home
to the home in your heart
but I'm one floor up
and your apartment's dark
I watched you through a hole in the carpet
but telescopes can't harvest a garden
I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust
I've got slow roots growin' in your stardust
