Straight to the bone. Both music and words. Jayne's Blue Wish :(Tom Waits/ Kathleen Brennan)The sky holds all our wishesThe dish ran away with the spoonChimney smoke ties the roofs to the skyThere's a hole overheadIt's only the moonWill there ever be a treeGrown from the seeds I've sownLife is a path lit only by the light of those I've lovedBy the light of those I loveLife's a path lit only by the light of those I've lovedBy the light of those I love

Notice the CD sleeves on Orphans...with all the antiquated text with odd ball facts, etc. On all three CD's and now on all seven of the record sleeves on the LP box set? Ever wonder where that stuff came from? Wonder no more.
