you're somewhere where I can't see you
you're on the road driving by
you're the golden light on the leaves
and love is a sturdy tree
I've never watched your face
and I've never felt your brace
and maybe I never will
but at least I've had them with me to keep me filled
a company I would keep
and be the sacred heart I'd reap
the day is strong as it is long
and I love you when I sleep
but you haven't come to me
do I wait or do I see thee
life is certainly not short
and I will not report that I'm nothing
I can feel the you inside
scratching underneath my hide
and I know you're around
but I'll have to take it in stride
I'm coming around a corner
and I'm not sure whats behind
and the landscapes unravel
and I'm on that train they call time
and I take the words that come to me
and fire them from the tops of trees
never asking where they come from
just where they're gonna be
when you find them
