The Sign Songtext
von The Mountain Goats

[john spoken] i never get tired of this one...

i′ve got a new life
you would hardly recognize me.
i'm so glad.
how could a person like me care for you?
why should i bother when you′re not the one?

i saw the sign
and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign.
love is demanding without understanding
yeah i saw the sign and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign
and noone's gonna drag you up.


under the pale moon,
for so many years i've wondered who you are.
how could a person like you bring me joy?
under the pale moon where i see a lot of stars.

i saw the sign
and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign.
love is demanding without understanding
yeah i saw the sign and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign
and noone′s gonna drag you up
to get into the light where you belong.

i saw the sign
and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign.
love is demanding without understanding
yeah i saw the sign and it opened up my eyes i saw the sign
and noone′s gonna drag you up
hey!
