Wednesday

Nothing here to fear
I'm just sitting around being foolish
When there is work to be done
Just a hang-up call
And the quiet breathing of our Persian
We call Cajun on a wednesday

So we go from year to year
With secrets we've been keeping
Though you say you're not a Templar man
Seems as if we're circling
For very different reasons
But one day the eagle has to land

Out past the fountain, a left by the station
I start the day in the usual way
Then think "well, why not?" and stop for a coffee
And begin to recall things that you say

No one's at the door
You suggest a ghost, perhaps a phantom
I agree with this in part
Something is with us
I can't put my finger on
Is Thumbelina size 10 on a wednesday

So we go from year to year
With secrets we've been keeping
Though you say you're not a Templar man
You tell me to cheer up
You suspect we're oddly even
Even still the Eagle has to land

Out past the fountain, a left by the station
I start the day in the usual way
Then think "well, why not?" and stop for a coffee
And begin to recall things that you say

Pluck up the courage
And snap, it's gone again
I start humming "When Doves Cry"
Can someone help me?
I think that I'm lost here
Lost in a place called America
