Well the YT Algo is being super-random today. 😆 Quite enjoyed the song... chorus/intro evokes Knockin' on Heaven's Door, by Bob Dylan. Which isn't a bad thing. 😉
Incomprehensible Let me be Incomprehensible Let me be [Verse 1] Highway 17, cotton candy rain Driving with my lover, we missed our plane So we added on the hours to see the lupine flowers Wave past the border, we blew through Thunder Bay The pine trees are narrow, a billion broken arrows The ravens and the crows, robins and the sparrows All across Ontario, just static on the stereo And swimming in the lake, Old Woman Bay Traveling with some stuff I left when I was a kid Mr. Bear and the wooden box I hid Full of broken gadgets that don't mean nothing now The only thing I'll keep are the letters and the photographs In two days it's my birthday and I'll be 33 But that doesn't really matter next to eternity And I like a double number, and I like an odd one too And everything I see from now on will be something new [Verse 2] "I'm afraid of getting older", that's what I learned to say 'Cause society has given me the words to think that way The message spins and spirals, "Don't get saggy, don't get grey" But the soft and lovely silvers are now falling on my shoulder My mother and my grandma, my great-grandmother too They wrinkle like the river, sweeten like the dew And as silver as the rainbow scales that shimmer purple blue How can beauty that is living be anything but true? So let gravity be my sculptor, let the wind do my hair Let me dance in front of people without a care Let me be naked alone with nobody there Or with mismatched socks and shoes and stuff stuffed in my underwear [Outro] Incomprehensible Let me be Incomprehensible Let me be

Incomprehensible
Let me be
Incomprehensible
Let me be
[Verse 1]
Highway 17, cotton candy rain
Driving with my lover, we missed our plane
So we added on the hours to see the lupine flowers
Wave past the border, we blew through Thunder Bay
The pine trees are narrow, a billion broken arrows
The ravens and the crows, robins and the sparrows
All across Ontario, just static on the stereo
And swimming in the lake, Old Woman Bay
Traveling with some stuff I left when I was a kid
Mr. Bear and the wooden box I hid
Full of broken gadgets that don't mean nothing now
The only thing I'll keep are the letters and the photographs
In two days it's my birthday and I'll be 33
But that doesn't really matter next to eternity
And I like a double number, and I like an odd one too
And everything I see from now on will be something new
[Verse 2]
"I'm afraid of getting older", that's what I learned to say
'Cause society has given me the words to think that way
The message spins and spirals, "Don't get saggy, don't get grey"
But the soft and lovely silvers are now falling on my shoulder
My mother and my grandma, my great-grandmother too
They wrinkle like the river, sweeten like the dew
And as silver as the rainbow scales that shimmer purple blue
How can beauty that is living be anything but true?
So let gravity be my sculptor, let the wind do my hair
Let me dance in front of people without a care
Let me be naked alone with nobody there
Or with mismatched socks and shoes and stuff stuffed in my underwear
[Outro]
Incomprehensible
Let me be
Incomprehensible
Let me be
In the high of the morning...
