Haller Lake by The Cave Singers Lyrics
[Verse 1: Pete Quirk]
Everyone's on a long walk
Ten huttin', ten cuppin'
The same streets
She's the kind that paces a room, stares at the gloom with a globe in her hand now
And a treaty I made, in a hot house
Nowhere near mountains, finally fixing your car
If I could find a better way to issue you a grape I would
Maybe a nice restaurant
[Verse 2: Pete Quirk]
Wash those dishes man
Is this the life you set out for yourself in your younger days
Well I might as well stand at attention
Clouds in remission above Haller Lake
Well call me up with a truth
Yeah, what are you supposed to do
Maybe the keys that you got are for a broken lock
In the moon
That could be true (too)
[Chorous: Pete Quirk]
So send me a daily evening call
But too much is falling in the things we've done
So send me away in this evening sun
On a boat of my branches
In the world's dark hum
[Verse 3: Pete Quirk]
Always in a state of my mind
She's found her purse by the building side
But to tell you the truth
Every swoon, every bird, every cliff
Is just out of focus
[Verse 4: Pete Quirk]
But c'mon, see I lost my hand in a wave
And I, I've never given up on outer space
To weaken the blow
I moved my camp north
Buffoons before tombs
Yeah behind those stones I found my place
[Chorous: Pete Quirk]
So send me away in the evening sun
But too much is falling in the things we've done
Send me a way in this evening sun
On a boat of my branches waving you right home
Everyone's on a long walk
Ten huttin', ten cuppin'
The same streets
She's the kind that paces a room, stares at the gloom with a globe in her hand now
And a treaty I made, in a hot house
Nowhere near mountains, finally fixing your car
If I could find a better way to issue you a grape I would
Maybe a nice restaurant
[Verse 2: Pete Quirk]
Wash those dishes man
Is this the life you set out for yourself in your younger days
Well I might as well stand at attention
Clouds in remission above Haller Lake
Well call me up with a truth
Yeah, what are you supposed to do
Maybe the keys that you got are for a broken lock
In the moon
That could be true (too)
[Chorous: Pete Quirk]
So send me a daily evening call
But too much is falling in the things we've done
So send me away in this evening sun
On a boat of my branches
In the world's dark hum
[Verse 3: Pete Quirk]
Always in a state of my mind
She's found her purse by the building side
But to tell you the truth
Every swoon, every bird, every cliff
Is just out of focus
[Verse 4: Pete Quirk]
But c'mon, see I lost my hand in a wave
And I, I've never given up on outer space
To weaken the blow

[Chorous: Pete Quirk]
So send me away in the evening sun
But too much is falling in the things we've done
Send me a way in this evening sun
On a boat of my branches waving you right home
