Cover art for Haller Lake lyrics by Cave Singers, The

I read these out of the liner notes of the album!

"Everyone's on a long walk Ten huttin', tin cuppin' the same streets She's the kind that paces a room, stares at the gloom with a globe in her hand now and a treaty I made, in a hot house nowhere near mountains, finally fixing your car" [and you got the grape line right, ha]

"Wash those dishes, man Is this the life you set out for yourself in your younger days? Well, I might as well stand at attention Clouds in remission above Haller Lake

Well, call me up with the truth Yeah, what are you supposed to do?" [Lock/moon line is correct]

"So send me a daily evening call but too mach is falling in the things we've done Send me away in this evening sun on a boat of my branches in the world's dark hum

Always in a state of my mind She's found her purse by the building side but to tell you the truth, every swoon, every bird, every cliff is just out of focus"

The rest right, except it's "buffoons before tombs".
