lyrics

She was looking over my shoulder

Out of the window at the moon

As I watched her there in the silver

Napkin dispenser to my right

Her left, my right

There was no one at the jukebox

When suddenly it turned on

And suddenly there's Motown

And the trumpets blow, towards Jericho, they go-

"No one knows how no one feels,

I wonder why I bother"

But tonight the sky caught flower

It was damn near absurd

A wash of wasp and bob-white,

Moth and mockingbird

In the blinding hind-sight

Of the long-dead starlight stood the

Unconnected dots of history

The patron saints of Luck and Mystery

The unnerving coincidence of reoccurring fingerprints

A white rose in an onion and an ocean in the oxygen

Muhammad, Kali, Buddha, baby Jesus and the gang

The whole slipshod she-bang

Under this perfect awning my pretty girl is yawning

"No one knows how no one feels I wonder why I bother"

She says "Look- the sky is perfectly clear-
Just there-", Where, there? "No, right here"

And when I finally feel I've found it

Each star points to the five around it

And on and on and off and on and on

She was looking over my shoulder

Out of the window at the moon

about

Cory Branan Nashville, Tennessee

Throughout his decade-and-a-half-long career, Cory Branan has been too punk for country, too country for punk, too Memphis for Nashville, and probably a little too Cory Branan for anyone’s damn good.
