"Reverie" lyrics

"Reverie"

You came to me
In quiet dream
The softly spoken
Words you speak are all
Surer everyday you stay
The life you make in subtle ways
Run my eyes across your face
In hoping you don't run away

All the games you've played
And times you've won
Yesterday's the dream
Tomorrow's waiting on the sun
The Gatherings we buy in haste
The Offerings before our names
Measured means, to the end
We try our best to pretend

That everything is more
And all is you
Seeping into bone
Your shadow stretches to the moon
All I do is stall my words
Remind myself of its worth
Run my eyes across your face
The memories
The reverie

All the games you've played
And times you've won
Yesterday's the dream
Tomorrow's waiting on the sun
The morning rises slowly
Taking time, composing
April, May, and June
The frozen ocean
Stills my heart
Rest assured, the work will win
Country girls and boys will sing
A child like me will live again
Born and die - begin again
