lyrics

you build castles in the air as i shatter all my stones
give my water to the desert such a long way from my home
we are strangers in a stranger land silent in our dreams
your walls were unexpected, your distance unforseen

i can feel your ragged edges but the wanting calls my name
i paint quiet yearning pictures try to hang them in your frame
it could be so holy and it would be so right
but ghosts of past and present keep us separate tonight

ride the neon river of 66 see the red cliffs of Jemez
standing on Sandia higher than i had ever been
i felt the turn of time and season, lost my bearings and my reason
the sorrow of my loving, i am trying to transcend

i tremble as you hold me, as it comes time to go
leave your eyes of darkest amber that see my very soul
no words can pass between us, that could ever speak that way
so i'll leave my songs to touch you, as i turn and walk away

maybe somewhere on the road, in a different time and place
we may try this dance again with an understanding grace
i'm growing and i'm learning as i rise toward the call
of a different kind of loving, with not so far to fall
not so far to fall
