track 09 from the album "New Year's Eve In The Hospice Ballroom"
lyrics
I watched the numbers fall on the ground
Some kind of program, you’re not around
And I’ll watch the paint as it peels off the walls
I can remember, remember it all
I never remember the faces I see
And names are just syllables, so easy to lose
But I’ve got a way of remembering numbers
You’ve got a face like a number to me
I watched the carnival load up the trailers
Just dusty taillights fading tonight
And I got embarrassed when children were asking
“Do blind men have memories of when they had sight?”
