Kristin Hersh - 37 Hours lyrics

By now, I should know where you're going

By now I should but I don't

You're better off wherever you are off to

Agile or stoned

By now, I should wake you when I'm hungry

Right now I should but I'm not

We could be a silkworm tightrope

We could but we're not

I don't want this to be over

You're what I do

Every day the only thing

That makes any sense

Your liver twisting logic's

Far and away the smartest thing

I don't know where I am

Plus I don't know when I am

'Cause you insist on using fucked up military time

'Cause you are better off alone

I've been right here for 37 hours

I dropped a cigarette in my shoe

And dove in the water

Then I swam until my hair dreaded

Like flying on fire

That day I quit smoking and swimming

I heard some advice from above

Ducking under cramming it in

Isn't falling in love

I don't want this to be over

You're what I do

Everyday the only thing

That makes any sense

Your lover twister logic

Far and away the smartest thing

I don't know where I am

Plus I don't know when I am

'Cause you insist on using fucked up military time

'Cause you are better off alone

I've been right here for 37 hours
