Day Busted Open
02:04
|
|||
The time and the season align
and I'm keeping my eye on the sky
busted open
It feels like a daydream combined
with a wanting inside of a heart
busted open
This wish:
a simple growing body
held up on the brink of the day
This stream
it done washed up all that's holy
Oh, what a reason to stay
Now I lay pining
I'm shocked what I'm finding
in the depths of a day
busted open

Growing Shadow
02:53
|
|||
Dust mote on my window sill
in growing shadow,
growing shadow
Whippoorwill you whisper still
all is spoken,
all is spoken
alone
Nightingale alight with will
slowly floating,
slowly floating
Graciously you eat your fill
open window,
open window
I'm awake and almost real
a growing pillar,
growing pillar
alone
Dust mote on my window sill
in growing shadow

Old Growth
02:58
|
|||
Old growth beneath me
receive me
completely free
receive me
Old growth inside me
disguise me
so truthfully
disguise me
All is alive in the love and the light of this moment
All that is anchored and lasting is steadily growing
Old growth complete me
Old growth a towering
a bowing
in simple breeze
always surround me

Letting Go
01:58
|
|||
Irreparable I drift to sleep
clouded in the fog of what I've seen
way off in the meadow lying there
my future self
This bedazzled monument is growing round me
This amazing grace how great thou art
come guide me
I'm letting go,
I'm letting go
Irreparable i drift to sleep,
letting go

Captured Heart
03:01
|
|||
The weight of it all
has caused me to fall
in a daydream
don't you wake me
Lovely and strong
you captured my heart
like a tiger
all a hunting
I opened up a songbird
inside I found you
Oh, what the song
means to the falling leaf
all a sailing
We've come to find
all that's in sight
Oh I see you
don't you see me?
I opened up a songbird
inside I found you
I found you underneath
I kept you so
deep inside of me

This Love
01:31
|
|||
This love is a bear cave
warm in the snow
this love is a wild hibernating glow
This love is a full moon
all through the night
this love is the beaming mother of the tides
All good things combined
inside
this love
This love is a strong wind
filling a sail
this love is a peaceful guiding gale
Take me where you will
inside
this love

Here I Am
03:22
|
|||
The nest emptied out
how the shell falls upon you
crumbled up by the hoof
of a doe lying in you
through the night
the dew rests so peacefully on you
spiderweb through the bough
shines like diamonds
within you
Here I am just a man
trying to understand you
"Who are you?" I am singing.
You sing back "I'm the space
of the finding and keeping,
here I am, here I am"

Sing You in a Song
03:02
|
|||
Sing you in a song
about how your body lays so gracefully
in the dawn
Sing you in a song
how your wild heart is quietly bewildering
and strong
Sing you in a song
how the seedling looks cupped so gently
in your palm
sing you in a song
Sing a song of me
so what the wisemen lost arrives to me
in a dream
Sing a song of me
to wish the best in things, to see my blues
washed out to sea
Sing a song of me
to open up my heart and listen to the prayer
of everything
sing a song
of me

Wild Kindness
01:45
|
|||
There's a wildness, there's a kindness
a hope in the heavy hanging moon
this eruption in the distance
I pray to you, why don't you pray to me?
I kneel to you, why don't you bow to me?
Wear a gold ring drink a potion
keep a key close to your heart
Don't see a difference in the hunting
and the killing
and the eating.
Taste the rainbow,
break a magic wand
I'm real today
though i'm mostly washed up and guttered like rain
I'm real today
and I see no fault
in anything at all.

Summon Love
04:20
|
|||
So long,
let it roll and roam roll the dice
rewind
Beating on a boulder, taking up your size
way above
a body lays alone rewind,
laying on it's side beaten up & wild
sewing up a sail
wind wild
come on darling, loosen up your eyes
Summon love inside the eye
SUMMON LOVE
Why why
Why?
We are the head inside of it, rewind
waking up in light
waking up alive
wait to see what's real open like a diamond
open like a sign. Be the heaven on a wind
be wise
hovering in the woods
AH AH AH
rewind
