She works at the bank, she likes it a lot
When Eleanor finds the safe is unlocked
The money is gone and so is her pride
A chance to move on towards Mexico’s light
She borrows a car without any plan
Drives south for a while out of Iowa’s hands
Suddenly light, an angel appears
She’s made to be blind and then she can hear
Out from the dark a vision appears
Every future for everything she has ever held dear
Her mother at home, washing her clothes
Her friends at the bank, the bloom on a rose
Jupiter moans, it’s ready to die
As the galaxy’s edge begins to collide
Eleanor smiles, it’s not in her head
The universe is a pearl in her hand
