Wittgenstein's Arm
Hey there, now, did I hear your voice
Ringing out in the early morning?
Did I hear you singing right through the night
Out there while I was rolling?
Did you see my brother lying in the ditch?
Knuckles all scraped and the powder on him
Passing like a shadow right through the night
Through my days and through my mind
Love is dead and truth is empty
It won't heal and it won't save me
See that girl in the checked white skirt
I'll hold her tonight and maybe it'll work
Love is all
A white dove in the snow
Passing through
Like a bright new moon
Mama froze
Women's blood once flowed
Death runs deep in this family
Write your song for the left and only
Lost my arm in the First Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
You see my brother drinking from the glass
They say he died with his eyes wide open
Poison flowing right through the veins
Glass of milk fell from his hands
Love is all (Love is all)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Powder moon (Powder moon)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Hey there, now, did you hear my voice
Ringing out in the early morning?
Did you hear me singing right through the night?
I wonder if you'll ever get tired of this
Death runs deep in this family
Write your song for the left and only
Lost my arm in the First Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
Love is all (Love is all)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Love is all (Love is all)
I'll find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Ringing out in the early morning?
Did I hear you singing right through the night
Out there while I was rolling?
Did you see my brother lying in the ditch?
Knuckles all scraped and the powder on him
Passing like a shadow right through the night
Through my days and through my mind
Love is dead and truth is empty
It won't heal and it won't save me
See that girl in the checked white skirt
I'll hold her tonight and maybe it'll work
Love is all
A white dove in the snow
Passing through
Like a bright new moon
Mama froze
Women's blood once flowed
Death runs deep in this family
Write your song for the left and only
Lost my arm in the First Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
You see my brother drinking from the glass
They say he died with his eyes wide open
Poison flowing right through the veins
Glass of milk fell from his hands
Love is all (Love is all)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Powder moon (Powder moon)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Hey there, now, did you hear my voice
Ringing out in the early morning?
Did you hear me singing right through the night?
I wonder if you'll ever get tired of this
Death runs deep in this family
Write your song for the left and only
Lost my arm in the First Great War
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
I wish I'd never learned that piano before
Love is all (Love is all)
Find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
Love is all (Love is all)
I'll find the right way home
Time is all (Time is all)
Find the right way home
