lyrics

A slender envelope
an aching heart
filled with things
built to tear us apart
a soul too good to have to go this way
I saw you shine like a thousand suns that day
I saw you float on as the wind called your name

so I asked the stone men
that I came across
that were richer in wisdom, wealth and loss
just what I might find before winter’s end
they said son, seek to find the love that you give
seek to find the love that you give

Chorus
hey...I
toss and turn
with a belly of fire
sometimes you get burned
hey...lately
what has it shown
between the dusk and the dawn
the ebb and the flow
we live up the days
‘til we go

now I’m waking early before the dawn
a chorus of bottles and birds sing along
to this song in my heart
a bright mourning dove
and Cathy Jo may you shine
forever above
may you live on in all that we love

Chorus
yeah, we live up the days
‘til we’re gone
