Letra de Zigzagging Toward The Light

[Verso 1]
I'm blessed with a heart that doesn't stop
My mind's a weathervane
It spins around just like a top
Knows what the winds of fortune bring
In the season of the witch
Home is a perjury, a parlor trick, an urban myth

Oh, how the circumstances change (Oh)
This world of smoke and steel
And compromise and meter maids
I'm going to leave here before too long (Oh)
Zigzagging toward the light
I'm off to sing my bounder song

True love, it hides like city stars
Nothing to gaze upon or contemplate
How near or far
If it comes, it comes quite unannounced
A momentary glance
Lit up by sun or moon
Or bonfire or ambulance

Then how the circumstances change (Oh)
Feels unmistakable, with no idea from where it came
But you will know it when it's gone (Oh)
Zigzagging through the night
Half-dead you sing your bounder song

Half-dead you sing the bounder song
Half-dead you sing, half-dead you sing

Save for the bounder (Save it for [?])
His word is never kept (Never say[?])
A bandeau of flowers ([?])
To stave his mind and bloom when he forgets

It's true that shadows tell the time
On sunny afternoons, on crowded sidewalks, passersby
I'm in a queue that stretches out
Far as the eye can see
It forms a figure eight and goes on for eternity

Oh how the circumstances change (Oh)
I fly by interstate across a purple mountain range
I'll find a place to come undone
Zigzagging toward you now
I sing out loud our bounder song
