many lives

I have your hands
My precious head
Strands where I've been
Weave words you said
Take out my eyes
For lucky stones
Staring at you
Feel tremors through
House of a dream
Walk into me
Dead in the morning
Shines the eve
Fire pouring out
The blinking stones
A blanket thrown
You're not alone

You're not alone
You're not alone
You know I've lived many lives, many lies, many tides
Hang me high over the hills, water cries, broken by
Turn my shadow three times round in
You know I've lived many lives, many lies, many tides
To the long night, blinking out like
Hang me high over the hills, water cries, broken by

Long as the road of dreams where I leave you
Blue as the veins, we separate into
Not all was said, for words leave a shadow
Leave me behind, within, between, below
Follow the sun, a thread spun around me
Your word, a breath, I held it inside me
Run, running through the places, I won't be
Stand next to me, the river in memory

It's only age
And all I've seen
Born of a cave
I'm opening
Take out this heart
In beating heat
Then rinse it in
The river deep
Now as I watch
You bow your head
There is no other
Way you said
Still, I shine from
This watching eye
Facing toward
What faces mine

You're not alone
You're not alone
Turn my shadow three times round in
To the long night, blinking out like

Long as the road of dreams where I leave you
Blue as the veins, we separate into
Not all was said, for words leave a shadow
Leave me behind, within, between, below
Follow the sun, a thread spun around me
Your word, a breath, I held it inside me
Run, running through the places, I won't be
Stand next to me, the river in memory
