[Chorus]
Singing to the mandolin
Over the roadside din
Standing in your kitchen
Singing to the mandolin
Singing to the mandolin
Over the roadside din
Standing in your kitchen
Singing to the mandolin

[Verse 2]
I saw the kids we once were in that picture you sent me
Cupping a cig on the fire escape, reeling a line of laundry

[Chorus]
Singing to the mandolin
Over the roadside din
Standing in your kitchen
Singing to the mandolin
Thumbing through The Waste Land
Making eggs to Graceland
Singing to the mandolin
Singing to the mandolin

[Refrain]
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm
[Verse 2]
We put it all in boxes, singing "Rain, Rain, Go Away"
Chip in the china saucer, see it again another day

[Chorus]
Singing to the mandolin
Over the roadside din
Standing in your kitchen
Singing to the mandolin
Another sun rises
Wonder what the prize is
Singing to the mandolin
Singing to the mandolin

[Refrain]
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm
