One Sunday Morning (Song For Jane Smiley's Boyfriend) Lyrics

Wilco

This is how I'll tell it
Oh, but it's long
One Sunday morning
Oh, one son is gone

Against the weather dawning
Over the sea
My father said what I had become
No-one should be

Outside I look lived in
Like the bones in a shrine
How am I forgiven?
Oh, I'll give it time

This, I learned without warning
Holding my brow
In time we thought I would kill him
Oh, but I didn't know how

I said it's your God I don't believe in
No, your Bible can't be true
Knocked down by the long lie
He cried, "I fear what waits for you"

I can hear those bells
Spoken and gone
I feel relief, I feel well
Now he knows he was wrong

Ring 'em cold for my father
Frozen underground
Jesus, I wouldn't bother
He belongs to me now

Something sad keeps moving
So I wandered around
I fell in love with the burden
Holding me down

Bless my mind, I miss
Being told how to live
What I learned without knowing
How much more I owe than I can give

This is how I tell it
Oh, but it's long
One Sunday morning
One son is gone
