about

Recorded by Emily Hall at the University of Iowa's Natural History Museum

lyrics

Where does the soul go
Where does it live
When we are dying
why's it stay hid

I cannot see yours
It went somewhere else
Some other body
taken down from the shelf

Oh darlin I wish you well
Oh darlin I wish you well

Maybe it's breathing
eons from now
I don't know why and
I don't know how

Maybe it's feeding
the roots of that tree
Maybe it's nothing

Oh darlin I wish you well
Oh darlin I wish you well

When I go flying
away from myself
I don't remember the things that I see
All I can say is it's never a dream
I leave I am empty
I leave I am empty

Oh then I return to myself
I remember the things that I've held

Oh the things this body has held
Oh the things this body has held

Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo

We wax and we wane like the moon
We are thoughts but we're animals too

Oh the things our bodies have held
Oh the things our bodies have held
