He worked all night And didn't notice that the light had changed Looked up And the sun just jumped all suddenly around If all those hours feel like busy work Can you still maintain Can you still hang on But out on the porch It's nothing but sun Nothing is over until you say it's done Half drunk and frayed The marsh all agleam And I know exactly What that busy work means A little coffee And I'm ready now to call you up I see the shower slowly opening your eyes I see the mornings I was half asleep And you were there Even when you weren't And out in the yard There's nothing but sun A bright English garden, wet webs newly spun The salt in my hair I'm free and I'm clean And as your phone rings Letras de cancionesI know what busy work means You know it's me And for a second we just sit and wait Like when you brace yourself And jump into the sea All the colors of the sky And now the sun's come up The sun, it snuck right up And out on the sea It's nothing but sun And all of those storms we built converge into one We'll weather the tides We'll build and be strong Children and work and picket fences and songs And out in the world There's nothing but sun I know it'll change, but when it's all said and done I'll still be here There's no in between And that's what the pain of all that busy work means From Letras Mania
