lyrics

You’ll be with me until April comes around
We can’t plant this love in winter’s frozen ground
Only keep warm miles above the wait for green
In a dusty jar of envelopes and seeds…

There’s no certainty to how the seasons turn
What will gather roots and flourish, what will burn
But we gather clouds and patterns as they fly
Count the changes, guess the next move by and by

And when you come, you tell a story
And when you go, I’ll write a song
to live
to live and wait for green

Breathe with me to make a little warmer space
A nest for hope we hum together face to face
Blood to body, shoulder, tender bone to bone
We’re each storing summer’s sweetness on our own

And when you come, you tell a story
And when we go, I’ll write a song
To live
To live and wait for green

Side by side but not the same our winter hearts
Leave the work of learning to survive the dark
In this quiet space of resting out of time
Share this mystery, a little glass of wine
