Constellations - James Vincent McMorrow

The mountain broke it’s back

There was nothing we could do about it

Boys still like me fine

Exacting what love means

Distance made

Catching trains

Left you there alone

But baby you feel everything

And there’s nothing we could can do about it

I try and make you laugh

As a fire starts in June

Tired to death

You hold me close and say

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go?

How do we go?

Then you find a way

To be separate

To desire in different ways

That’s convenient and safe

Doesn’t need to be your heart

Can be any living part

Of your body dragged through stone

Then I miss the shape you form

Into deeper constellations

Into wider outer space

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go on?

How do we go?
