Sunblind [Solstice]

[Verse 1]

For Richard Swift, for John and Bill

For every gift lifted far before its will

Judee and Smith, for Berman too

I've met the myth hanging heavy over you

[Verse 2]

I loved you long, you rose to go

Beneath your songs, perfect angels in the snow

So time to stage, forget reserve

The type of great coronation you deserve

[Pre-Chorus]

I'm going out for a weekend

I'm gonna borrow a Martin or Gibson

With Either/Or and The Hex for my Bookends

Carrying every text that you've given

[Chorus]

I'm gonna swim for a week in

Warm American Watеr with dear friends

Swimming high on a lea in an Edеn

Running all of the leads you've been leaving

[Verse 3]

I'm overmatched, I'm half as wise

If this is flat, brother, I apologize

No one alone can leave the cave

And all you've loaned won't be kept inside the grave

[Chorus]

I'm gonna swim for a week in

Warm American Water with dear friends

Just intending that I would delight them

Swimming high on a lea in an Eden

[Break]

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

[Refrain]

So I dream, dream

So I dream, dream

[Chorus]

I'm gonna swim for a week in

Warm American Water with dear friends

Swimming high on a lea in an Eden

Follow all of the leads you've been leaving

[Outro]

And in your rarified air I feel sunblind

I'm looking up at you there high in my mind

Only way that I made it for a long time

But I'm loud and alive, singing you all night, night
