To wander past your window in the nighttime 'cross the floor

Went to wanderin' Nordhbridge way out on the railroad
And you wander away from your hillside retreated view
Oh child, to never wonder why
All the scrapbooks built together stuck with glue

In the night you cry and you want spirits to tell you
Open and just hold the lantern in the doorway
Down the road so dark and narrow
To never, never, never, never wonder why
Together all the tipping trucks will unload

The dynamo of your smile caressed the barefoot virgin child
And I'll stand beside you, beside you

And I'll point a finger at you, point a finger at you
And he's right on time, right on time

Go well against the pointed idle breeze

Everything's alright

Crying as ecstasy surrounds you
You're satisfied I guess, you're way up
You say which way, which way
Oh child, to never wonder why
To never, never, never, never wonder why at all

Through the night air your proud time is open
That's alright, we've gotten hip to it

Goin' to do it right now, behind you, beside you, beside you
Across the crystal pavements
Past the footlights of the brazen silence easy
That's why Broken Arrow waved his finger
And you breathe in out, in out
Way across the country where the hillside mountains glide
It's gotta be, it has to be
In the evening just before the Sunday six-bells chime
And you take the night air through your nostrils

To never, never, never, never wonder why at all
And way out on the highway
For the freedom of it
All the dogs are barkin' way down below
Go ahead and do it one more time, baby
And you breathe just like that, just like that
How does it get you when it gets you, when it gets ya

And the sky comes down kaleidoscope
You may not know it's got you until you turn around
