Are You Cleaning Off the Stone?

The Mountain Goats

I'd like to begin by saying that i saw you coming,
But that would be a lie.
I'd like to say that i can hear your voice,
But i couldn't mean 'hear' in the accepted sense of the word.

Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do.
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you.

They tell me your hair's gotten much, much longer.
I bet it looks nice.
They tell me your eyes are the same color as they always were.
That kind of information just floors* me.

Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do.
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you.

Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's a sweet thing to do.
Are you cleaning off the stone?
That's sweet of you.
