The Woman I'll Become
In a house upstate there lives the woman I'll become
I do not have her address, but I'm living where she's from
She drives the maps I'm drawing, singing tunes I only hum
The woman I'll become
In a house upstate there lives the woman who I'll be
She has more money saved and a graduate degree
She figured out her smoky eye, she has a PCP
The woman who I'll be
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
In a house upstate, a couple wrinkles on her brow
She's given up her shovel for an automatic plow
She stumbled on some victories, but can't remember how
She'll find some new ones now
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
In a house upstate she's far beyond my best design
I don't stay up to date, but I assume she's doing fine
I try not to expect her, she keeps her distance, I keep mine
We never quite align
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
I do not have her address, but I'm living where she's from
She drives the maps I'm drawing, singing tunes I only hum
The woman I'll become
In a house upstate there lives the woman who I'll be
She has more money saved and a graduate degree
She figured out her smoky eye, she has a PCP
The woman who I'll be
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
In a house upstate, a couple wrinkles on her brow
She's given up her shovel for an automatic plow
She stumbled on some victories, but can't remember how
She'll find some new ones now
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know that I don't know, I don't know
That I don't know, that I don't know, I don't know
In a house upstate she's far beyond my best design
I don't stay up to date, but I assume she's doing fine
I try not to expect her, she keeps her distance, I keep mine
We never quite align
The things I think will break me, she handles them okay
The dreams that I am chasing, they aren't mine anyway
The people I hold on to, she softly lets them go
She knows the things I know that I don't know
