i could n't help but wonder if that was his way of letting me go . the current tune is fading out of the speakers and i hear a click as he steps on the foot pedal which pauses the recording tape . and so her cousins came and took her and so she went away , and you knew nothing of it . '' the chair kept rocking , and he made like he was going to sit in it . he had turned his back on that world years earlier , and he didnt want me to be a part of it .
