  • words and music by van morrison

    little jimmy's gone way out of the back streets
    out of the window, into the falling rain,
    and he's right on time, right on time.
    that's why broken arrow waved his finger
    down the road so dark and narrow
    in the evening just before the sunday sixbells chime
    and way out on the highway
    all the dogs are barkin' way down below
    and you wander away from your hillside retreated view
    went to wanderin' nordhbridge way out on the railroad
    together all the tipping trucks will unload
    all the scrapbooks built together stuck with glue
    and i'll stand beside you, beside you

    oh child, to never wonder why
    to never, never, never, never wonder why at all
    to never, never, never, never wonder why
    it's gotta be, it has to be

    across the crystal pavements
    way across the country where the hillside mountains glide
    the dynamo of your smile caressed the
    barefoot virgin child
    to wander past your window in the nighttime cross the floor
    crying as ecstasy surrounds you
    through the night air your proud time is open
    go well against the pointed idle breeze

    past the footlights of the brazen silence easy
    in the night you cry and you want spirits to tell you
    everything's alright
    go ahead and do it one more time baby
    you're satisfied i guess, you're way up and the sky comes down
    kaleidoscope

    open and just hold the lantern in the doorway,
    for the freedom of it.
    and you take the night air through your nostrils and you breathe
    in out, in out
    and you breathe just like that, just like that

    how does it get you when it gets you
    when it gets ya
    you may not know it's got you until you turn around
    and i'll point a finger at you, point a finger at you
    you say which way, which way
    that's alright, we've gotten hip to it
    goin' to do it right now.
    behind you
    beside you, beside you

    oh child to never wonder why
    to never, never, never, never wonder why at all
    never never never never wonder why at all.
