[Verse 1] Wednesday, you say I’m yours Such a small sentence Such a large door I say yes the way cities do when they are still being named You say you called me with your mind I say, I know I felt it too [Verse 2] Books on the table A child’s drawing A beer can out of place The eye forgives what the heart wants So much doesn’t belong yet insists on staying We pass poems back and forth You call one heartstopping I read yours again when you’re gone [Chorus] See me whole See me whole Before you decide what I mean Stay a little Stay with me Long enough to see me whole [Verse 3] I say, once more before you leave You say, leave where? Bodies learn borders late Then silence Then your letter So certain of its words So certain of me [Chorus] See me whole See me whole Before you decide what I mean Stay a little Stay with me Long enough to see me whole [Bridge — almost spoken] I tell you where I came from What I made, what I repaired I lay my life out on the table and hope you’ll find me there You say I’d make a thing of you I think you’ve done the same Intimacy is its own occupation We each have something to explain [Outro — whispered, beat falling away] We were both right That is a version of the truth You said there were forces larger than us Yes But they moved through us They moved through us See me whole See me whole
