And this is how it is

"And this is how it is
and it's no easy trick
we can promise what we want to
but we can't make it stick
half a life ago
with this ring we wed
and now we're sittin’ at this table
with the things we never said"

Who am I to doubt these mysteries ...

Who am I to doubt these mysteries,
cured in centuries of blood and candle smoke,
I am the least of all your pilgrims here,
but I am most in need of hope

"Well she lit up the sky that fourth of July
By the time that the firemen come
They just put out the flames, and took down some names
And sent me to the county home"
