Contextual Analysis of "meander" in Lyrics

start

a girl standing with arms so warm and kind

it's only when you listen that you learn. and i wonder at the ways

through our close and distant days

it's only when you listen that you learn. and i wonder at the ways

through our close and distant days

this river rolls like a rocket

ain't a power on earth that can stop it

and i am old and i am settled in the place where i will stay

yeah whatever else maybe i will not forget my friends

start

the river looks like skin tonight

i am a lullaby

bellybutton until i

start

washed out the old road as to what did i bring

through the moors and through the briars

in the blue august moon

postprandial

just like we used to

postprandial

just like we used to

my flying machine

i've set the date take off's tonight

start

now there is a song beneath the song

start

now there is a song beneath the song

i'll eavesdrop on their debates

and so do i

an endless string of lights

through houses with gaping doors

i love her so

our appalachian clime

start

when twilight is fading

and see the damage done

the streets of america

mixing drinks at water holes get snarled up in the suburbs

when work is done
