lyrics

Lo and behold I have still got a soul
A collection of selves made of heavens and hells
Loosely arranged, bits of memory and space
Just a series of moments, serious and strange

Now be good, we’ve been told
Gotta think about our souls
But we’ve got teeth and gotta eat
Just like all animals

And I still love you
And I love myself too

Wandering this way in my old old age
Making marks on a page, still insisting it’s my name
Strange as it sounds, it’s all written in the cloud
Don’t you fret, for the internet never forgets

And I won’t forget you
If you’ll remember me too

Pieces of twine hooking your heart up to mine
Through the years we’ve been pressing tin cans up to our ears
Lucky to find something lovely as a vine
Climbing trellis and brick, and when we think it will not stick
Each spring it reappears

And I still love you
And I still love you
And I still love you
