Loretta (feat. J.R. Kaufman)

Wasting time on the corner with Loretta
Breaking bread out of the bag
Crush it in our hands
Throw it out together

Less a stroll and more an amble
Walking stick across your shoulder
Tell the story of your mother shut your mouth
And what you learned from her example

Oh don't fear the end
When your story's going over
When you're staring at the edge
When your body's moving forward

Outta mind, you can't find the notes or names
Try to hum it for a while
You can tell it's not the same

What a catholic devotion
To gin and lime at noon
To sitting in the ocean
To laughing at the youth
Oh don't fear the end
When your story's going over
When you're staring at the edge
When your body's moving forward

Oh don't fear the end
What you reach is bound to break
Let it roll into the open space
The final touch of rain

Names of your family
Knowing how the story ends
Dog next to the TV
Garden of succulents
Falling so slowly
Out of elegance

Oh don't fear the end
When your story's going over
When you're staring at the edge
When your body's moving forward

Oh don't fear the end
What you reach is bound to break
Let it roll into the open space
The final touch of rain
