The Nabber: 

I'll find a place somewhere in the corner 
I'm gonna waste the rest of my days 
Just watching patiently in the window 
Just waiting, seasons change, some day, oh oh, 
My dreams will pull your shadow through that plate 

Jimmy Jay: 

Your pens have set men's hearts ablaze
And you have had your will of him
Are you not weary of ardent ways? 

The Nabber: 

I want to be the wandering pedophile and scholar
Shaded and Shadowed by the ash trees and the moon 
Sit playing chess with Eliot by the window 
Just waiting, seasons change, ah hah, you'll see 
Some day these dreams will pull your shadow through my plate

Jimmy Jay: 

Above the flame the smoke of praise
Goes up from candles glim to rim
Tell no more of enchanted days.

Our broken cries and mournful lays, 
Rise in one Eucharist hymn
Are you not weary of ardent ways? 

The Nabber: 

And I'll come running to tie your shoe 
I'll come running to tie your shoe 
I'll come running to tie your shoe 
I'll come running to tie your shoe
