J. Tillman - Minor Works lyrics

This may be the last that you
Hear for a long time
Because my mind just went blank
When I saw what the years had held
How the pieces fell

And everything that you said that you'd do
I can see was time well spent
How I wish the same were true
Those minor works I put you through

If we'd gone through this
And I caught just a fleeting glimpse
Well, I'd run like a dog on the scent
Of what could have been
Of what I've been doing

And everything that you said that you'd do
I can see was time well spent
How I wish the same were true
Those minor works I put you through

And I heard you wrestling for a spot
Next to Jacob or Elijah
Reveal‚ reveal yourself
To me and no one else to me and no one else
