Evening Prayer (Feat. Loulou Lamotte) - Jens Lekman
At Babak's school
there is a 3D printer
And he prints out a model
of the tumor
That was surgically removed
from his back this winter
In its rugged gray plastic
it looks lunar
He puts the tumor
in his breast pocket
As we head out for a beer
It's been a long hard year
For a friend who's not sure
if he's close enough
To be allowed to care
or just be there
To include you in
his evening prayer
How I prayed
that I could stop the pain
When the pain needed
more than ibuprofen
How I prayed that I could
take away your worries
When they ran deeper than
the West Pacific Ocean
He puts the tumor on our table
Says So
this is what caused all my fears
It's been a long hard year
For a friend who's not sure
if he's close enough
To be allowed to care
or just be there
To include you in
his evening prayer

Last orders
the waitress slides
Down from her bar stool
Looks at the tumor says
What is this
It looks kinda cool

Babak's okay despite
what he's been through
But he sees I'm made uneasy
by the model he's done
He says
It's helped me a lot to
have a friend like you
When I saw you worry
I knew I had to be strong
He gives the tumor
to the waitress
Says Give my friend here a beer
It's been a long hard year
I just wasn't sure if we
were close enough
But I want you to know
how much I cared
That you were
in my evening prayer
I want you to know that
you were in my prayer
I want you to know that
you were in my prayer
