I am a woman haunted by hands
  Even though I'm alone
  Traces of Pompey
  Across my skin
  And an invisible map
  Of where you've been
  It's dry road to Idaho
  A thirsty tongue across the land
  And soil so dry
  You could swallow and entire man
  Took the first road out of town
  Hoping that you were just skin deep
  Well I feel you like
  Some sort of phantom limb
  Beside me when I sleep
  Cause you are here when gone
  You are here when gone
  You are here when gone
  You are here when gone
  I watch another grey day unfold
  It's dusty wings
  Sometimes I wish I were more like
  Rocks and stones and things
  Sometimes I wish my heart
  Were not like flowers at all
  That way I wouldn't get butterflies
  When you called
  begin extra
  And the night swallows itself
  You can see it in the stars
  The moon blinks it's tired eyes
  I may be a thousand miles to nowhere
  Does that make me lost or found?
  Oh - is it that relative to if you're around?
  end extra
  And some birds abandon their young
  Cause the instinct is too strong to fly
  Well I feel like abandoning
  My guitar and my books and I'm afraid
  I don't know why
  Cause you are here when gone
  You are here when gone
  You are here when gone
  You are here when gone
