Intro riff 1


Riff 2 Riff 2
It's not that she walked away,
Riff 2
her world got smaller.
Riff 2
All the usual places,
Riff 2
the same destinations,
Riff 2
only something's changed.

Same as verse 1
It's not that she wasn't rewarded
with pomegranate afternoons
of mingus, chet baker and chess.
It's not stampeding fortune,
or prim affectations.
She's off on her own
but she knows

Now is greater than the whole of the past
is greater, and now she knows

Riff 2
It's not that the transparency
of her earlier incarnations
now looked back on, weren't rich
and loaded with beautiful vulnerability
and now she knows

Riff 2:
It's not like if angels
could truly look down
stir up the trappings
and light on the ground.
Remind us of what, when, why or who
that how's up to us, me and you.
And now is greater than the whole of the past


Is greater, and now she knows that.
Now she knows.
