How could it be?
That tendons bound to bones within my feet
Were bound to believe
That they should move themselves to up and leave

I should say that I'm sorry on their behalf
I should say something funny
But you will not laugh

I didn't see the steps I took
Had taken you from me
Where would we be
If I let myself be swept away to sea

I would cry out to tell you
But you'd not be there
I would cry out to tell you
But you wouldn't care

I could lead a stationary life
You will see and you'll believe
My love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong sometimes
Sometimes my bones are wrong

I know I'm not leavin'
I know I believe it

Oh how could it be
These teeny little things within your knees
Bring you to me
And they can keep on moving when you sleep

I know I'm not leavin'
You all alone
I know I believe it
And so do my bones
So do my bones
So do my bones

I could lead a stationary life
And you will see and you'll believe
My love is carried to you by my feet
My bones are wrong sometimes
Sometimes my bones are wrong
