Did you notice?

Things are not the same

The feeling of your voice upon

my name

 

We’ve drawn it out so

I’ll be on my way

Find something to protect me from the anguish

I can’t face

 

None can tell you

the road you are to take

But you live to let the words appear

upon the page

 

And if you tend this

Perhaps the rest will come

But I see the shifting shadow

on the dial in the sun

 

Go my love

Strike the match

With the heartstrings unattached

 

Go my love

Watch the moon

I see it oh, my window through

 

We try to find it

Some semblance of control

We try to make things happen

but they just want to unfold

 

And if in leaving

I’m clearing out the way 

Then I accept that losing you

would be the price I pay

 

This raging battle

The logic has its part

I try to find a way around

the wounding of my heart

 

But still I’d rather

See your open wings

Break it so that I can see

that far more precious thing

Go my love

Strike the match

With the heartstrings unattached

 

Go my love

Watch the moon

I see it oh, my window through

 

Hey oh hey, 

It’s you again

Let your tears run dry

Oh our love unraveling

We come back to life

Spring is coming

Summer soon

The leaves will shake the frost will nip

no matter what we do

 

So put the words down

Down upon the page

Keep on through the thickets,

catch the meanings where they stray

 

Go my love

Strike the match

With the heartstrings unattached

 

Go my love

Watch the moon

I see it oh, my window through

I see it oh, I see it oh

 

Did you notice?

Things are not the same

The absence of your voice

Upon my name
