|
We were sitting round a dying fire |
|
Somebody lit incense, somebody lit a cigarette |
|
And passed the bottle around |
|
It was just strawberry season |
|
Backbreakin' pickers in the patches |
|
Every thing's burning down to ashes and down to the ground |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I don't even think she knows it |
|
It's a strange way to show it as distant |
|
As last night's dream unravels |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I'm a very lost soul |
|
I was born with a hole in my heart |
|
The size of my land locked travels |
|
I try to put it aside but it's too much bigger than me |
|
There's a big brown hawk in the tree |
|
Lighting and leaving |
|
And this tea leaves tossing |
|
Heads up pennies in my pocket |
|
Dead star like a rocket, the arc of my grieving |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I don't even think she knows it |
|
It's a strange way to show it as distant |
|
As last night's dream unravels |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I'm a very lost soul |
|
I was born with a hole in my heart |
|
The size of my land locked travels |
|
The sky pours out biblical rain |
|
Then days so still the beauty gives you pain |
|
The heatwave kills the green and she remains unseen |
|
But colors up my dream with all things blooming |
|
This is not all there is, it's not a kingdom |
|
It's not an angry |
|
God, it feels like her |
|
It feels like no fear, it feels like no doubt |
|
It feels like inside out, the ashes stir |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I don't really think she knows it |
|
It's a strange way to show it as distant |
|
As last night's dream unravels |
|
She's saving me, |
|
I'm a very lost soul |
|
I was born with a hole in my heart |
|
As wide as my land locked travels |
