"Jobie's Song" lyrics

"Jobie's Song"

You were holding up a smile
It was dripping with the rain
Shoulders square to the window
You were framed in the pane

It was dry where I stood
And I wished you were the same
Fate sitting on the paper
And you read it like a game

Rocks in the river
Couldn't stop the flow
I see you darling
Even when I don't

Oh child, I'm broken-hearted
And filled with holes
The look you left on the window
Never goes

When I woke in the aisle
You were past the door
Sun beamed in denial
Veiling what you wore
Oh, couldn't lie where I stood
And I couldn't find the floor

Oh, give me more time, give me more
Rocks in the river
Couldn't stop the flow
I see you darling
Even when I don't

Oh child, I'm broken-hearted
And filled with holes
The look you left on the window
Never goes

Here's something I can tell ya
I'll be there on the bright side of the moon
When you're not doing well
Look up, I'm the silence coming through
If you need to yell
I'll be playing in the echo of the room
Ringing like bells
