lyrics

Take this road to the circle of trees or the monoliths that eat the sky

and the sky streaming red left unsaid words in elegant suggestion

pale crusader in chains were you born beneath starlight?

i look up for a cloud broken wide— quilted sky be my guide

Hear the thunder roar as I leave from this shore by the ship sailing into the sun

wrapped in waves of the sea you followed after me though the mooring's been undone

and in my dreams I set you free
though you held my back 'gainst the wall

you said: "take what you see and give none of it to me 'cause darlin I've seen it all"

when the earth shakes, the river spills across the dust of someone else's years

On the bank we lie still—sun streams shadow semblances that give us breath

don't sell your heart to stolen souls
dressed in pressed suits of concrete

don't give your heart—the song's still there
Breathe your mind clear and see the world fair
