Lyrics

you snooze as I sip my coffee
the days are getting longer
just like you said
“why don’t you come down here
and just watch the canal
until you figure it out

you’ve been missing in inaction
you’ve been missing in inaction
but the seasons still changed
the bills still came due
while you’ve been missing in inaction
are you
rethinking
rebuilding
in this little town"

“She’s
living in The Quarters
looking just like a Black
living in The Quarters
talking just like a Black”
“There’s only good reason for that,
Lord knows”
things to be glad you don’t understand

you’ve been missing in inaction
you’ve been missing in inaction
but the seasons still changed
the bills still came due
the seasons still changed
the bills still came due
while you’ve been missing in inaction

are you
rethinking rebuilding
in this little town
in this little town

“you’re looking better in this heat”
you said a mouthful, brother
“sometimes you can be at home
but not really feel at home”

and when you wake up
and when you wake up
and when you wake up
I’ll say
Thanks —
Thanks —
Thanks for the coffee

you’re looking better in this heat
you said a mouthful, brother
sometimes you can be at home
but
not really
sometimes you can feel at home
but not really feel
sometimes you can be at home
but not really be at home
