Minor Works

This may be the last that you hear for a long time
Because my mind just went blank
When I saw what the years had held
How the pieces fell
And everything that you said that you’d do
I can see was time well spent
How I wish the same were true
Those minor works I put you through
If we’d gone through this
And I caught just a fleeting glimpse
Well, I’d run like a dog on the scent
Of what could have been
Of what I’ve been doing
And everything that you said that you’d do
I can see was time well spent
How I wish the same were true
Those minor works I put you through
And I heard you wrestling for a spot
Next to Jacob or Elijah
Reveal‚ reveal yourself
To me and no one else
To me and no one else
