I went down to the basement To check up on the sour mash I looked down to the nonreactive ceramic tub It was bubbling
I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down I saw the dust devils swarming around Incoming sunbeams cut them apart And I watched a shadow pass across my heart
You were upstairs in the kitchen With your head against the sink Trying to cool down Trying to cool down
I know you don't believe me but I could hear you breathing I looked into the tub and there the mixture was seething With new life, new life all around I had stirred up the dust on the stairs coming down
You were upstairs in the kitchen With your head against the sink Trying to cool down Trying to cool down
