Lyrics
James C. Akans
2380 Centennial Lane
Ann Arbor, MI 48103
(734) 665-4259
Pendulum By Jim Akans c. 2000
She?s made a quilt of her desires
Each one in its place
And she finds some satisfaction
In those tears on her pillowcase
Worn uneven, hand me down
Living out of season
Continually coming around
Like a pendulum motion, she?s never still
Like a pendulum motion, ever clear of you, ever near to you
Never still?
I feel it in her eyes, see it in her face
as a part of her life?s
been torn away and misplaced
It?s a bitter sensation
Between a reason and a doubt
She knows just where she?s going
But she can?t think of anyway out
CHORUS
She goes sailing to the stars
Leaves the door ajar
So she can always find
What she left behind
She?s never still
She goes sailing
She?s never still
far away
CHORUS
