Me Without You - Carousels lyrics

On a bus ride into town I wondered out loud, "Why am I going to town?" And as I looked around At the billboards and the stores I thought, "Why do I look around?" And I kissed the filthy ground First dry spot I found And I didn't have to wonder why I was laying down Before long I was too cold Took a bus back to the station I found a letter left by a pay phone With no return contact And it read like a horn blown by some sad angel "Bunny, it was me, it was me who let you down" It was the shyest attempt I'd ever seen at conversation If I didn't have you as my guide I'd still wander lost in Sinai Counting the plates of cars from out-of-state (How I could jump in their path as they hurry along) You surround me You're pretty but you're all I can see like a thick fog If there was no way into God I would never have laid in this grave of a body for so long And Bonner fair always came through The first week of September But it's already the 19th And there's no sign of it Yet, I have a hard time Remembering all the things that I should remember And a hard time Forgetting the all things that I am supposed to forget Oh Christ, when You're ready to come back And I think I'm ready for You to come back But if You want to stay wherever exactly it is You are That's okay too, it's really none of my business If I didn't have You as my guide I'd still be wandering lost in Sinai Or down by the tracks watching trains go by to remind me There are places that aren't here I had a well but all the water left So I'll ask Your forgiveness with every breath If there was no way into God I would never have laid in this grave of a body for so long, dear
