The Light

her eyes could have only been born of this ocean
 delph blue, longing and weepy
 they want me so much to want you
 all wrapped up beside you and winded
 after you've taken me
 my minds' roamin' free
 dozin' dazin' driftin' out of this evening
 with a verse so sweetly sung
 to a world we've longed to come
 but somehow we are not one
 and all her lavender meadows, so fragrant and beautiful
 and at your dining room table
 the sun falls on my face so warm
 and all the turbulent highways
 ive taken to get here
 to you in this home in this moment
 for that i am greatful
 though this house feels like an old lost song
 that calls for me to play along
 somehow i dont belong
 the night lit by moon, the day sun
 oh baby im wondering how come
 the light is nearly gone
 her soul could have only been born of a wild oak
 so far reachin' and swayin' and free
 but stands stoically alone
 when the skies come apart
 she leans over so helpless and cowering
 until the storms come to cease
 and somehow she's the only one standing
 and though we've grown so close my love
 and though these nights we've shared so many of
 a part of me is numb
 her eyes look up to me so open and true
 our window's in perfect clear view
 that somehow i cant see through
