lyrics

your genius was to me first heard in the rankest basement in all of portland -- you sang my song with such authority -- it had a dignity it did not deserve -- but we didn't have a chance to take it someplace else -- yeah i was sure i'd found the one -- who'd give a voice to all my dreams and wishes -- with perfect time and a gift for phrasing -- but then you disappeared and hid yourself away -- and we never pressed record -- there's no proof that you happened -- it's the loneliest position working on your own -- especially when you've glimpsed a future you could know -- but first you gotta find and keep and hold a collaborator -- i could do it myself but there's something not right -- i'm walking through a tunnel with a 20-watt light -- just show up at my space, i'll make it worth your night -- my collaborator, want a collaborator
