What Are The Lyrics For Learning the World By Mary Chapin Carpenter?
Grief rides quietly on the passenger side
Unwanted company on a long, long drive It turns down the quiet songs and turns up the din It goes where you go, it's been where you've been And pushing your empty cart mile after mile Leaves you weeping in the wilderness Of the supermarket aisle And in the late night kitchen light it sits in a chair Watching you pretend that it's not really there But it is, so it is and you ask Are you predator or friend The future or the past? It hands you your overcoat and opens the door You are learning the world again just as before But the first time was childhood And now you are grown Broken wide open, cut to the bone And all that you used to know is of no use at all The same eyes you've always had have you walking into walls And the same heart can't understand Why it's so hard to feel What used to be true What's now so unreal But it is, so it is and you say I wish I were the wind so that I could blow away Grief sits silently on the edge of your bed It's closing your eyes, it's stroking your head The dear old companion is taking up air Watching you pretend that it's not really there |
