Neko Case - I Missed the Point Song Lyrics

I have lightening, if the stars dry up, to guide me
I have soft clay to knit my bones astride
What a miracle. they say
Dark clouds gather
Velvet holes gaping gaping wide, oh

And they pour it down, and they sing to me
Of wonders unseen
Like clouds that rise from the sea, oh

And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry
That I missed the point of this pageantry
But I'm grateful that you love me
