In my dream
You were an ant in the palm of my hand
In my dream
I couldn't see that you were broken in two pieces
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
'Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something as small and fragile as an ant
You were an ant in the palm of my hand
In my dream
I couldn't see that you were broken in two pieces
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
'Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something as small and fragile as an ant
In my dream
I set you free in a stream of gasoline
And the pieces
They scattered out to the north and the south
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
'Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something as small and fragile as an ant
I set you free in a stream of gasoline
And the pieces
They scattered out to the north and the south
And I couldn't put you back together
I couldn't put you back together
'Cause my big hands
Could never understand
Something as small and fragile as an ant
So I took a match
And threw it in
And watched the trail of fire spin
And it scattered out north and south
Burning down the stream
And threw it in
And watched the trail of fire spin
And it scattered out north and south
Burning down the stream
In my dream
Just one piece found a tree
And there it stayed
And had laugh
One whole half
Just one piece found a tree
And there it stayed
And had laugh
One whole half
