I felt my life with both my hands
To see if it was there
I held my spirit to the glass
To prove it possiblerI turned my being round and round
And paused at every pound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the sound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the soundI judged my features, jelled my hair
I pushed my dimples by
And waited if they twinkled back
Conviction might of meI turned my being round and round
And paused at every pound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the sound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the soundI told myself take courage, friend
That was a former time
But we might learn to like the Heaven
As well as our old homeI turned my being round and round and round
Paused at every pound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the sound
To ask the owner's name
For doubt that I should know the soundI felt my life with both my hands
To see if it was there
