Answering Bell (Live at Carnegie Hall, May 14, 2022) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Did I slip? I know I stumbled
Did I trip? 'Cause I know I fell
All's I know is I'll wake up here in my clothes tomorrow
[Chorus]
But oh girl, I wish I knew you well
Oh girl, I wish I knew you well
But I'm just saying hi to your answering bell
[Verse 2]
Did I run? I thought I was walking
Through your inexhaustible gale
The names are changed but the constellations
Are still falling
[Chorus 2]
Oh girl, if you could only tell
Oh girl, if you could only tell
But I'm just saying hi
[Bridge]
Let your tears fall and touch my skin
Then your thunderclouds could rage and wail
I will collect them all for you in butterfly jars
Did I slip? I know I stumbled
Did I trip? 'Cause I know I fell
All's I know is I'll wake up here in my clothes tomorrow
[Chorus]
But oh girl, I wish I knew you well
Oh girl, I wish I knew you well
But I'm just saying hi to your answering bell
[Verse 2]
Did I run? I thought I was walking
Through your inexhaustible gale
The names are changed but the constellations
Are still falling
[Chorus 2]
Oh girl, if you could only tell
Oh girl, if you could only tell
But I'm just saying hi
[Bridge]
Let your tears fall and touch my skin
Then your thunderclouds could rage and wail
I will collect them all for you in butterfly jars
[Chorus 3]
And oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
Oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
But I'm just saying hi to your answering bell
[Verse 3]
Did I sleep? Must have been dreaming
Did I weep? 'Cause I cried like hеll
All's I want is your fortress of tears to crumble
[Chorus 4]
And oh girl, I'd tеar 'em down myself
And oh girl, the stories they could tell
But I'm just saying hi
And oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
Oh girl, I'll build your wishing well
But I'm just saying hi to your answering bell
[Verse 3]
Did I sleep? Must have been dreaming
Did I weep? 'Cause I cried like hеll
All's I want is your fortress of tears to crumble
[Chorus 4]
And oh girl, I'd tеar 'em down myself
And oh girl, the stories they could tell
But I'm just saying hi
