Elephant tears tracking
softly down his face
All the pain he couldn’t place
someone had to take the fall
Didn’t look close enough to see
that this elephant was me
Butterfly Quilt stretching
all across the sky
Fill the autumn day with light
They flew straight into my eyes
Well I was blinded by their song,
but it turned cold and now they’re gone
Well, I'm free just like I wanted
Got no promises to tend,
got no favors left to lend
Just this mark that’s on my hand
Well the black-eyed Susan
knows my number
My name she’s soon to learn
I'm just one step from the turn
and then I’m done
So I'll go out just the same,
with my body and my name
I've got nothing left to hide,
everything is open wide
But I hear you in your song
Yeah girl I heard you along
Yeah, I hear you in your song
Yeah baby I heard you along
