For Bill Barbre. A wonderful grandfather, an admirable person, and a truly remarkable soul. Also, the painter of this beautiful cover art.

He will be missed. And forever loved.

lyrics

Refrigerator magnets can't hold me up this time
I fall down in your kitchen
You speak in crossword lines

The power lines are down
The streets are looking dark
The wind's holding its breath
It naps across your yard

We'll get some rest
As sure as your heart is
On the right side of your chest
We'll get some rest
As sure as the sun is
Waving from the west

You sometimes speak in Spanish
I don't know what you mean
You'll translate always
In my heart and in my dreams

You once dreamed you were a marble
I would pick you up and dust you off
You kissed my forehead
You dropped me off at school
And some days you picked me up

You say you remember everything
I'll remember you in the smell of spring
You say you remember everything
Do you remember the songs I'd sing
You say you remember everything
I'll remember you in breakfast cereals
In early mornings
If you remember everything
Will you remember all you mean to me?

We'll get some rest
As sure as your heart is
On the right side of your chest
We'll get some rest
As sure as the sun is
Waving from the west
