lyrics

On a pilgrimage to I don't know where
In the library a flash of black hair
These words, not buried underground

Take a train & then a bus
Sitting next to a man & his son
I was told I must go there, so

The world is small but some places are big
The world is small but some places are big

I meet two women they're the age of my mother
And the olive color of my father
They say, come with us in this borrowed car

We're drinking coffee & Gila looks at me a long time
You're a sweet girl
Why would you come here alone

The world is small but some places are big
The world is small but some places are big

Leaving the endless field, the monument
The flat black barracks

At night we dress for the play
In sparkles silk & lace
Up the road the old man left unclothed

Gila says, I know why I came here
But now it's time to go
Darling, leave those shoes by the door when you get home

The world is small but some places are big
The world is small but some places are big
The world is small but some places are big
The world is small but some places are big
