Somehow I think we had missed it 
A turn of phrase on quicksand 
Caught by another way underground, we found 
No kind of diamond or sapphire 
Across a telephone wire 
I might have heard a lot more than you 
And the more that we guessed it 
The more it became unknown 
Kept moving against it 
Kept burning the bridge that lead home 
I said "Olly olly oxen free 
I'll bet you really missed me." 
You said "Not too much, really I was fine." 
Buried beneath a little story 
You wrote so long ago for me 
I found the answer to the question, finally 
And the more that we guessed it 
The more it became unknown 
Kept moving against it 
Kept burning the bridge that lead home
Before when I was saying more 
When we implored about this 
I thought it might be out of line 
Now I know it was completely fine
And the more that we guessed it 
The more it became unknown 
Kept moving against it 
Kept burning the bridge that lead home
And the more that we guessed it 
The more it became unknown 
Kept moving against it 
Kept burning the bridge that lead home
