Your Fonder Heart (2014)
[Verse 1]
Come out, come on, come outside
Don't you hide your handsome face from me
I want to see you half-lit in the half-light
Laughing with the whites of your dark eyes
Shining darkly

[Refrain]
Way over yonder, I'm waiting and wondering
Whither your fonder heart lies

[Verse 2]
Come out, the streets are breathing
Heaving green to red to green
Come with your nicotine and wine and tambourine
Keeping time
You come and find me in the evening

[Refrain]
Way over yonder, I'm waiting and wondering
Whither your fonder heart lies
Way over yonder, I'm waiting and wondering
Whether your fonder heart lies
Oh, oh—

[Verse 3]
Come out, come inspired
You will not come to harm
If I cannot take you for a liar or a lover
I'll take you for my brother-in-arms
[Refrain]
Way over yonder, I'm waiting and wondering
Whither your fonder heart lies
Way over yonder, I'm waiting and wondering
Whether your fonder heart lies
Oh, oh—
