As we wait a little longer now
Standing here a little stronger now
I can feel all the changes
Waking up another season now
I felt the love of a listener
She came to me when I needed her
We walk hand in hand through the valley of worry
And climb the mountain to see the sun
And climb the mountain to see

Will I wake up - is this a dream?
Thought I saw you the other day
Did we walk together last night?
Wear my armor a little tight these days
These days I’m holding on, holding on
I try to let it go, to let it go, go
Won’t let you go
Staying inside, I’m hiding out
Just right now, can’t take a crowd
All the animals are leaving
Silence, silence I’m sitting in

Night people living by bright lights
Staying out too late to see the sun
Looking for a memory to forget
Darkness is an old and fickle friend
Colors seem to fade
Grey, grey blue
The trees are only barren
So they can make room
The new is coming
Hiding underground
Come, come out
The seed is in your hand
Waiting to sprout
The rains are coming

Sitting on the porch, eating mangoes
I haven’t slept for days
It’s no little thing - starting over
It’s gonna be okay - is it okay?
So many walls are in my way
I just made a list - it’s way too long
I’m feeling overwhelmed!
I’ll just take a break,
Go outside and plant it on in the ground
Into the ground
I hope it grows into something
I could wait a lifetime
To do the thing, to make moves and see
Why am I stuck in slow motion?
A play-by-play of all the ways I screwed up
How do people make “wise decisions?”
I haven’t slept for days
Dreaming all my dreams
Call it “vision”
Call it a holiday
Whatever you say
I hope I can get a move on
I could wait a lifetime
To do the thing - make moves and see what happens
Why am I stuck in the middle
Of my own mind?
Gonna take my time and go nowhere

Fire (Summer)
The sun shines warm on my skin
I fly over fields and mountains
I feel, I feel, I feel so much at once
My heart is racing like a bird’s
The tall grasses sway by the sea
I close my eyes and see the heat
I feel, I feel, I feel I might explode
From all the beauty I can’t begin to hold
My heart is fluttering like a bird’s
Earth (Transition)
As we wait a little longer now
Standing here a little stronger now
I can feel all the changes
Waking up another season now
