Текст песни Esme - Joanna Newsom
I
can
feel
a
difference.
Today,
a
difference:
All
of
us,
in
our
tents,
Fearing
god
like
a
mistress.
We
lay
on
the
rocks,
in
the
sun,
Watching
you
and
your
mama
row
in,
I
sat
up
and
blinked,
When
you
appeared,
So
pale
you
were
nearly
clear!
Later,
I
stumbled
to
my
bed,
All
alone
in
the
branches.
I
lay
in
the
dark,
Thinking
about
all
of
my
friends,
And
their
changes.
And
I
do
not
know
If
you
know
just
what
you
have
done.
You
are
the
sweetest
one
I
have
ever
laid
my
eyes
upon.
It's
a
beautiful
town,
With
the
rain
coming
down.
Blackberry,
rosemary,
Jimmy-crack-corn.
You've
got
the
run
of
the
place,
Now
that
you're
running
around;
And
may
kindness,
Kindness,
kindness
abound.
In
this
hour
of
our
lives--
Hour
of
effortless
plenty--
How
do
we
know
Which
parts
of
our
hearts
want
what,
With
such
base
generosity?
Taking
so
many
photographs--
So
amazed!--
We've
never
seen
a
baby
so
newlyborn.
And,
when
the
bulbs
do
flash,
As
bright
as
morning,
The
crowd
keeps
on
gathering
Like
an
electric
storm.
The
phantom
of
love
Moves
among
us
at
will.
Each
phantom-limb
lost,
Has
got
an
angel
(So
confused,
Like
the
wagging
bobbed-tail
Of
a
bulldog):
Kindness,
kindness
prevails.
Kindness
prevails!
Ties
and
rails
fall
into
line,
Bearing
kindness.
Where
will
you
go,
if
not
here?
What
will
you
say,
When
you
write
to
us?
This
is
a
world
of
terrible
hardship,
Everywhere,
And
I
search
for
words
To
set
you
at
ease.
But
there,
in
the
looking-glass,
A
kite
is
soaring,
Stilling
my
warring
heart
And
my
trembling
knees.
Clean
as
a
breeze,
Bright
as
the
day:
All
of
the
people
gather
to
say:
"Sweet
Esme!
Sweet
Esme!
Oh,
oh,
oh!"
I
believe
love
will
always
surround
you--
Brave
as
a
bear,
With
a
heart
rare
and
true.
But
if
you
are
scared,
If
you
are
blue,
I
have
prepared
this
small
song
for
you:
Sweet
Esme!
Sweet
Esme!
Oh,
oh,
oh!
