The Turning 05:05
Early morning sky You and I could track the phases of our lives Across the riverside Chasing, churning Something caught our eye Turing over stones Pouring over time to find the hidden words To find a space to fit Pieces, passing Years rolling by And you slow it down to breathe But the movement brings relief When it all turns wrong But you’re still all right When the roads long gone But you still got light to drive on ahead And the turning feels like breathing But the stillness can’t provide any peace of mind Early evening sky You and I have passed those phases of our lives We’ve seen the other side Of hurting, healing So much we’ve left behind And you slow it down to grieve But the movement brings relief When it all turns wrong But you’re still all right When the roads long gone But you still got light to drive on ahead And the turning feels like breathing But the stillness can’t provide any peace of mind And the turning feels like flying

Oldies moan on the radio And I’m feeling past my age And the mirror shows the feet of crows And my drum beat sounds like fools on parade Well she shines from bed like the rising sun And she burns for the stage to play And a fathers love, and the contradictions To stay in the moment, not to wish the days away It’s hard to show a smiling face When the world is falling apart And I know she sees the smallest trace Of sadness in my heart Cold wind blows on a dreary day And I’m feeling past my age And the winter slows a distant glow Of a new hope rising, or an asteroid on the way It’s hard to show a smiling face When the world is falling apart And I know she sees the smallest trace Of sadness in my heart And the slowness of it all And the simple and the small Is all we ever wanted this to be But the pressures built too tall Became the prison walls And we just can’t push through it But our prison’s a fortress too It’s hard to show a smiling face When the world is falling apart And I know she sees the smallest trace Of sadness in my heart

Ice encases the field, The dawn reveals its stillness Crystal to water, Solid to liquid Has a thawing come here Gather around my children, Whose sight is too near Gather around my elders, Whose ears can’t hear Let me circle around you, Let me hold your fear Has a thawing come here Laying fallow my field, Waiting to harvest and reap my yield Oh youth can be tragic , But aging makes clear A thawing grows near Young and old, My center holds I’ll grow for you to hold onto And I love you all, And I won’t let go Even though I shake I will not fall Stretching warm in the field Entangled together with dove and deer Rotting to rising A numbness to feel, A heart thaws here, A future thaws here, Resolution thaws here, Resurrection thaws here My heart thaws here, My future thaws here Resolution thaws here, Resurrection thaws here My heart thaws here, My lungs thaws here My voice thaws here, My love thaws here

Me and you Ignite and combust and launch with escape velocity Me and you Blast through the atmosphere but exit oh so quietly And I do remember the feel of solid ground And I love the way we launch to orbit around Massive stars, massive stars, exploding Massive stars, massive stars, exploding Me and you Radio transmit life from the edge of the galaxy Me and you Pull at the strings of light and love and honesty And I do remember the feel of your mouth on mine And I love the way your breath filled up mine Massive stars, massive stars, exploding Past our stars light and dark, unfolding Me and you, always find our way through the clouds Me and you, always find our way back to the ground Massive hearts, massive hearts, enfolding
