Are You Cleaning Off the Stone?
John Darnielle
[Verse 1]
I'd like to begin by saying that I saw you coming
But that would be a lie
I'd like to say that I can hear your voice
But I couldn't mean "hear" in the accepted sense of the word
[Refrain]
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you
[Verse 2]
They tell me your hair's gotten much, much longer
I bet it looks nice
They tell me your eyes are the same color as they always were
That kind of information just floors me
[Refrain]
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you
