Hejira - Joni Mitchell[00:00:00]
I'm traveling in some vehicle[00:00:29]
I'm sitting in some cafe[00:00:35]
A defector from the petty wars[00:00:38]
That shell shocked love away[00:00:43]
There's comfort in melancholy[00:00:51]
When there's no need to explain[00:00:56]
It's just as natural as the weather[00:01:00]
In this moody sky today[00:01:04]
In our possessive coupling[00:01:10]
So much could not be expressed[00:01:15]
So now I'm returning to myself[00:01:20]
These things that you and I suppressed[00:01:26]
I see something of myself in everyone[00:01:31]
Just at this moment of the world[00:01:37]
As snow gathers like bolts of lace[00:01:42]
Waltzing on a ballroom girl[00:01:48]
You know it never has been easy[00:02:06]
Whether you do or you do not resign[00:02:11]
Whether you travel the breadth of extremities[00:02:16]
Or stick to some straighter line[00:02:19]
Now here's a man[00:02:28]
And a woman sitting on a rock[00:02:28]
They're either going to thaw out or freeze[00:02:33]
Listen strains of Benny Goodman[00:02:37]
Coming through' the snow[00:02:40]
And the pinewood trees[00:02:41]
I'm porous with travel fever[00:02:47]
But I'm so glad to be on my own[00:02:52]
Still somehow the slightest touch of a stranger[00:02:57]
Can set up trembling in my bones[00:03:03]
I know no one's going[00:03:08]
To show me everything[00:03:10]
We all come and go unknown[00:03:14]
Each so deep and superficial[00:03:18]
Between the forceps and the stone[00:03:24]
Well I looked at the granite markers[00:03:43]
Those tribute to finality to eternity[00:03:48]
And then I looked at myself here[00:03:54]
Chicken scratching for my immortality[00:03:56]
In the church they light the candles[00:04:04]
And the wax rolls down like tears[00:04:09]
There's the hope and the hopelessness[00:04:15]
I've witnessed thirty years[00:04:18]
Most easier way[00:04:21]
We're only particles[00:04:23]
Of change I know I know[00:04:25]
Orbiting around the sun[00:04:28]
But how can I have that point of view[00:04:34]
When I'm always bound[00:04:39]
Hung up on someone[00:04:40]
White flags of winter chimneys[00:04:44]
Waving truce against the moon[00:04:49]
In the mirrors of a modern bank[00:04:55]
From the window of a hotel room[00:05:00]
I'm traveling in some vehicle[00:05:18]
I'm sitting in some cafe[00:05:25]
A defector from the petty wars[00:05:28]
Until love sucks me back that way[00:05:32]
