[Verse 1] Saint Anthony, who has run out of patience Forgot who I loved and can't unerase it We walked to the water of lost things Adjacent to the house where his daughter was born in the basement [Chorus] Here on the Island of Lost Things Of lonely socks, leather wallets, and dropped wedding rings The white queen that never checkmated her king They're all here, on the Island of Lost Things [Verse 2] Students with coffees have kidnapped the mayor Now all of our laws read like poems or Hegel Saint Anthony says he can not untangle The dreams he keeps piled 'neath the dining room table [Chorus] Here on the Island of Lost Things Of lonely socks, leather wallets, and dropped wedding rings The white queen that never checkmated her king They're all here, on the Island of Lost Things [Verse 3] Snakes tempt the apples to fall from their trees So worms all move out from the reds to the greens After whiskey, Saint Anthony always gets mean Throws out the last thoughts that I think before sleep [Bridge] And when I lose my mind He returns, he returns it missing time And in the blank spaces I find I burrow down, blinded but not blind [Verse 4] A man jumped in front of my train without warning And then sprouted wings and flew into the morning I, with my coffee, change the Constitution Spill all of the ink like blue absolution [Chorus] Here on the Island of Lost Things Of lonely socks, leather wallets, and dropped wedding rings The white queen that never checkmated her king They're all here, on the Island of Lost Things We're all here on the Island of Lost Things We're all here on the Island of Lost
