lyrics

So many gallons, it pours and pours
There's a hole in my boat.
But, I'm so close to shore.

And all these punctures,
all these things that slipped away,
all these thrown away yesterdays

will soon be found.

So many people, jokesters and whores,
speak their own little language,
slow and jagged.

So many conversations with fools.
and all these conversations,
all these precious words I've blown,
all these ideas I've tasted

will come to some use in my time.

In my old age, just before the upper room,
I'll know... that I made use of every moon.

There's something to say of a man who hopes.
There's a whole in my bucket.
But, my heart's intact.

Healing fire. Smoldering Mind.
Creation for the daughters.
Giggling mime.

And I'm laughing up and down the street.
Yes, I'm giggling like a mime...
Cause I know...

There's a hole in my bucket.
But, my heart's intact.

There's a hole in my bucket.
But, my soul.
