plummeting further still

I’m astonished and reeling
i can't believe this feeling
i'm trying, i'm trying, i'm trying
trying to hold on
but it keeps on coming on stronger
and lingering on longer i just can't seem to shake it
like some fever i can't sweat out
i'm astonished and reeling
i can't believe this feeling
i'm trying, i'm trying, i'm trying
trying to hold back
i'll just keep on biting my tongue
so not to smother you with praises
cuz i don't wanna overwhelm you
or make you think i'm an unmanageable situation
i was just caught completely off guard... staggering
tryna keep myself from falling
down, down, down, down
further into mystery
i wish you would come with me
plummeting further still

ballad

if there's something you know
go ahead and say so
and if you want me to know
just say so
we don't have too much time
but we've got so much to learn
we get just enough time to speak and show
lying here all but our love disappears
lying here all but our love is destroyed (what a joy!)
our flesh and limbs tussle in elation
teeming with gladness to see their longing reach its source
well it seems we've been
to forever and back again
we've seen everything
no we haven't missed a thing
sometimes its hard to believe
that your still here with me
after all we've been everywhere we've been everything

lover, please draw near
we've got secrets and warmth and effulgence to share
is it not time we go beyond words
and get down to our more pressing work?
answer to this question:
we're well aware that we've both been usurped by our true vocation
so why the waiting?
the hesitation?
we're right here
so if you can show me
lover, i assure you
i assure you i'm quick to learn
since that serendipitous moment
when i began to understand this dance we dance
i can't stand or sit still
trying to stay in step with your sinuous motion
something about that rhythm
keeps us pounding at the door pleading for more
so why the waiting?
the hesitation?
we're right here
why don't you show me
lover, i assure you
i assure you i'm quick to learn
we've been waiting so long
to be so near (more and more near)
next to us the stars are but ephemeral dust
next to us the moon herself might blush
we can only be bashful for so long

every time you sing there's an opening
every time you sing there's an opening
i keep seeing openings into the heart though i'm always tossed
i keep seeing openings but here i am again
tossed out again onto longing street
every time i'm cold and almost dead
her porchlight comes on
i stumble through the door
and disperse into her laughter
nevermind that we'll soon be ejected
to awake back into that bitter dream
(separation)
every time i'm cold
and almost dead her porchlight comes on
i stumble through the door
and disperse into her laughter
every time you sing there's an opening
never mind that we'll soon be back out on longing street
every time you sing there's an opening
even here on longing street
let me sing, let me sing even here from longing street
let me pay dues with as much gladness and dignity as i can muster
and then some
carry on with as much gladness and dignity as i can muster
and then some

they say it's far away

they say it's far away
but i can smell it
they say it's far away
but i can taste it
they say it's far away
but i feel it
come now into my arms
it's something we can touch
but we cannot hold
it's something
we can only behold
i just wanna carry you like you carry me
i just wanna hold you like you hold me
they say it's far away
but you and i bear witness
they say it's far away
but listen, you'll hear those bells ringing
they say it's far away
it's right here
stay now in our arms
(gotta keep on saying)
stay now in our arms
if only I'd known I'd known you all along
if only I'd known I'd loved you all along

devotion
03:11
|

i lived for my parents
until i lived for my children
and for a few ambivalent days in between
i lived for myself
cursing the hours
begging my lord "won't you please just let me see you"
although i had known that we had already met
i've song songs of trials and tribulations
i've cried out in the name of jubilation
but everyday i'm still withered by frustrations
still i remain drunk with devotion
if there's one thing i know i must be owned by devotion
