Timpanogos rising sun
far above us there is no one
in the valleys in the canyons
who my side would not abandon
through the deserts and the forests
in the concrete you were there
who but you could be true
who but you
none walk where you walk
none know what you know
Timpanogos brother mine
brother older beyond time
you are far now you are long
hear my cries now hear my song

Behind the Glass

open up your mind
step inside the door
note all of the furniture
the footprints on the floor
you've been here before
age of ages past
though the dust has settled
there's a light behind the glass
do you feel the currents stir within the air
do you hear the aching of the ancients there
all of this inside you all of this within
lean into the quiet let the light leak in
I am stretching out through the curtains grey
I am straining every muscle giving way
all my vain ambition all my foolish pride
quells before the quiet calms before the light

living in some dreadful days
living with the edges frayed
threadbare like a sail a toss
with waves of love left and lost
ready to abandon ship
ready just to call it quits
slash the lines that bind me to
the pine wood that the air rips through
and be through
but to be sure of any other way
you are more than my words could ever say
but I am not quite ready yet
to be so quick as to forget
all the words you spoke to me
when love was young and love was free
free indeed
but to be sure of any other way
you are more than my words could ever say
to be sure of any other way
you are more than my words could ever say

Moment

|
rushing like the wind that fills your lungs
fading like the grass beneath the sun
divide all of the zeros into ones
that's where you'll find me love
battered by the bastion of tomorrow
buried in the bones of yesterday
dying every minute you're alive
that's where I found you love
don't let me go
don't put me down
I've never been one for hanging around
I cannot stay
I cannot last
pushed by the future and pulled by the past
but you and I, you and I
time is turning faster than the planet
tumbling as it turns between the stars
oh darling, I am fading as the moon
so hold onto me love

If You Speak
03:44
|

|
if you speak I'll be listening
if you sing I'll write the words
I've been waiting on your wisdom
to settle on me like summer rain
on the floor where you left me
pulling for the blinds
feeling sunlight though the glass at last
marked your words on my skin
settled up with next of kin
and I laid it down, I carried much
much is made, but more is lost
oh, I counted the cost
