You told me, "Go."
I did not.
You told me slow,
but I forgot all of the pleasant things about you since the day that we had met.
But, darlin' I aint left you yet.
And now you lie awake,
but please don't feel afraid
of all the things that come into your mind when you are all alone.
'Cause, darlin', I'll be waiting here at home.
Well, I don't know where you're going, but I know where you came from
and all the seeds that I've been sowing, they're starting to come up
and if you give me just a season, I promise not to waste none of your time
And while the sun may be setting, I'm feeling awfully warm,
from all the yarns that we've been threading, and there's children to be born
so let us leave it all behind us,
I wonder if you'd let me call you mine.

Hold your breath for spring
and all the light the rain will bring.
As it's know a tree must come from a single seed.
But when it was young, did it long for where it came from,
Did it know what it would become? A canopy of shelter from the sun.
Water rocks and sand,
Sweet goodnights while hand in hand,
but all our best laid plans can never be laid again.
But who you are to me, is who I perceive you to be,
made from just the parts I can see, but in time you will know yourself through me.
And I through you.
And when you sleep, you dream.
Say I'm alone and I will be yours
But say I am yours and I will be gone.

I owe you naught,
I earned what I got.
And I'll take yours still.
Can't deny my will.
Follow me not.
I chose to walk.
Lay them stone by stone,
I'll call these walls my home.
Stay behind for now.
Leave behind memories of town.
But who will mind what I've got,
when my mind's all that I've got?

Gone, another one.
The timber is stacked away to keep them warm.
Sum, another one.
This oil and steel is not where I am from.
No Life, No Love,
How could I have ever thought to stay...
Head Down, Eyes Shut,
I know I will feed myself one day.
I'll feed myself one day.
Rounds, when you were found
My feet at last release from frozen ground.
Same, no longer strained,
I see my soul beneath your wiry grain.
No Life, No Love,
How could I have ever thought to stay...
Head Up, Eyes Wide,
I know I will feed myself Today.
I'll feed myself Today.
