THE DECEMBERISTS Why Would I Now? Lyrics, singer by THE DECEMBERISTS

---

Have I ever lost your way?
Have I ever left you waylaid?
Have I ever called and stayed?
Why would I now?
There were times I load your name
There were times I laid on plain
There were times I brought on shame
Why would I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?

Have I ever steered you wrong?
Have I ever strung you along?
Have I ever kept you long?
Why would I now?
There were times I broke through the walls
There were times I broke through it all
There were times it felt so hard,
Why would I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?

Though the years they may upbraid you
How it all nearly unmade you laying down
Why would now?

Remember when it all went dark
Remember when it first ran apart
Remember how I held my marks
So wouldn't I now?
But I will never be your familiar soul
and I will never see your interior whole
But have I ever stood back and watched you fall?
Ditched your call? Cut you, bend around?
Why would I now?
