[00:37.450]I could never build the ether
[00:41.370]Or the grass overgrown
[00:44.710]Could never build the river
[00:48.280]With a mouthful of foam
[00:51.040]I could never build the winter
[00:54.100]With her cold tears of glitter
[00:59.070]I've been listening to the red oak
[01:02.790]The acorn she cries
[01:06.230]Listening to the white birch
[01:09.260]The paper she dries
[01:12.440]Listening to the frogs joke
[01:15.960]Listening to the firesmoke
[01:21.820]I could never tell you now
[01:25.010]What I had often said before
[01:28.320]Because promise is a pendulum
[01:32.000]Just swinging at the door
[01:34.720]I'm not saying I'm not jealous
[01:38.520]Or scared anymore
[01:41.190]I'm just saying
[01:47.780]I could never build a rainbow
[01:51.790]Or any kind of flower
[01:54.940]I could never make a sparrow
[01:58.110]Or a meteor shower
[02:01.630]Could never make an earthworm
[02:05.230]Never make the earth turn
[02:09.670]I've been listening to the laughing
[02:13.390]Of the fox down the trail
[02:16.940]Clasping to the listening of the moss to the snail
[02:23.610]The shimmer of the beech leaves
[02:26.960]As the wind does a big sneeze
[02:33.590]I could never tell you now
[02:36.580]What I had often said before
[02:40.130]Because promise is a pendulum
[02:44.160]Just swinging at the door
[02:47.140]I'm not saying I'm not jealous
[02:51.210]Or scared anymore
[02:54.140]I'm just saying
[03:08.150]I could never build the shadow
[03:11.850]Between your cheek and your eye
[03:15.120]I could never make a freckle or the warm breath you sigh
[03:22.280]The canopy of lashes
[03:25.900]With the softness of ashes
[03:30.860]I've been listening to a memory
[03:34.940]The way that it was
[03:38.610]Listening to the echo of why and because
[03:45.480]Listening to the echo
[03:49.080]Telling me to let go
[03:55.710]I could never tell you now
[03:58.610]What I had often said before
[04:02.220]Because promise is a pendulum
[04:06.220]Just swinging at the door
[04:09.310]I'm not saying I'm not jealous
[04:13.500]Or scared anymore
[04:16.460]I'm just saying
[04:23.660]Saying, saying, saying
