Lucky for the Light

lyrics

Lucky for the lines, the canyon of my palms
That send my eyes to look at this day
That allow my lips to kiss the page
Animated by the smoke of song

I’m grateful for the joys of laughing loud
And the breaking shingles of my roof
The many wishes, the holding of the early hours
The nights I worship you

Lucky that the world shook underneath me
Compelled to push the limit of the blur
Thrilled to see you my lover, but don’t look so angry
Sometimes dinners late when you got music in you

Even now, my feelings quake in some disorder
I’m reminded I should slow and get some sleep
but I’m penciling down the lines and patterns and color
and singing tall tales of you and me

the sound, the dream of this, the sway and ohh
got me walking on water
