Reshelving Hours from Silent Index by Spinewell

Lyrics

Cart wheels turning down familiar rows
Arms full of volumes coming home

Seven-thirty means the shelving starts
Fiction sorted by the author's name
Your hands reach where mine just pulled away
We're dancing but we can't explain

Biography finds its numbered place
While poetry spills past its designated space
Reference works need careful tending
But our careful distance is ending

Reshelving hours teach us how to share
The weight of books, the weight of care
Reshelving hours, side by side
No need to run, no need to hide

Orderers show us proper spine alignment
While Rewinds teach the art of gentle handling
Indexfolk ensure each volume's truly home
Together we're stronger than working alone

Classification serves connection now
Order holds what love allows
Every book back where it belongs
Every heart joining the song

Reshelving hours teach us how to share
The weight of books, the weight of care
Reshelving hours, we've found our way
To work together every day

Last book settled on its shelf
Last secret shared between ourselves
