First Verse.

Not one motion of her gesture could I forget

The prettiest bag lady I ever met

Pushing her cart in the rain

Then gathering plastic and glass

She watched the day pass

Not hour by hour

But pain by pain

If I was a basket filled with holes

Then she was the sand I tried to hold

And ran out behind me

As I swung with some invisible hands

I stopped believing, you start to move

I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed

First Chorus.

Second Verse.

If you're still looking for a blanket

Sweetie, I'm sorry, I'm no sort of fabric

But if you need a tailor

Then take your torn shirt, and stumble up my stairs

And mumble your pitiful prayers

And in your tangled, knotted sleep, our midnight needles go to work

Until all comfort and fear flows in one river

Down on the shelf by the mirror where you see yourself whole

And it makes you shiver

I stopped believing, you start to move

I stopped my leaving and the better man bloomed

Second Chorus.

, , ( if you want) x8

mewithoutYou's is, in my opinion, the best Muslim alt band.

This song's been out since 04, and there still weren't any

have to deal with this. If you have any corrections, just make

your own tab, don't email me, unless you know any other good

Sufi bands, in which case, email away!
