about

About an imagined encounter with a silent-film star.

lyrics

Old woman, sittin' there
Sweet eyes, childlike
There's something in there
That's telling me
"I know more than you ever will"

Old woman, starin' back
Sweet time, dreamlike
Somehow, something there
And could it be
That time has grown still?

(Chorus)
Take me down with you when you go
'Cause there's just so many things I still need to know

Old woman, lyin' there
Sweet eyes, starin' back
There's a fire burnin' in there
It's tellin' me
Never let yourself keep standing still

(Chorus)

Old woman, dyin' there
Sweet eyes, closed forever
She blows a whisper
And she tells me,
"I know more than I’d ever tell"
