lyrics

Often a ghost of someone yet to be
Walks through this house. Walks carefully.

Watches a wind of dogwood and waits
Under a blanketing sky of olive and slate.

Waits for our weak voices to speak
In a quiet only silence could break

When morning dew confiscates the sun
These are the good days not yet undone

These are the days we half recognise
Lost in a breath of blue in our eyes

Lost like a rose whose scent we can’t hold.
How do we know?
How do any of any of us know?
