Jane Siberry Miscellaneous The Magic Beads I reached the desert as the sun was rising On the day that you were passing through The caravan you travelled in was crowded I didn't like the people around you Those people hushed me when I tried to call you The pushed me back and would not let me through And these thin arms weren't strong enough to part them So back into the roadside rocks I withdrew Sometimes I am nervous when the night comes I hear so many noises that are new But I try not to think of you too often I try not to use the beads you threw Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake I know that I'm supposed to wait But when will I see you again In daytime I do dances for the tourists I strike a pose I hope they can't ignore My hope is to attract your caravan to me And then beat them to your side before they know Oh babe I'm really sitting by the road I hug my knees and hope that I'll see you I made up that bit about the dances But it keeps me from using the beads you threw Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake I know that I'm supposed to wait But when will I see you again Your caravan told me I was not one of them Because the way I talked was not part of their school I made too much fun of California Well--I made too much fun of paper tools You yourself--you told me not to join them You said I would do better where I was But is this really true--I get so lonely The only wine that fills me up is you Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake I know that I'm supposed to wait But when will I see you again I am not as nervous when the night comes And darkness falls among these desert rocks Even though I still touch your beads and wish for you Waiting becomes easier than not Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake I know that I'm supposed to wait I just wanted to see you again But when will I see you again when? |
