"Here And Whole" lyrics

"Here And Whole"

Go home you sailors, go home for a while
The sea doesn't need you or know you
And push the goods to their ports and canals
And lay your head on the shore

Go home you soldiers, go home to your lovers
Your mom needs your warmth and your smile
The fight never filled you, you knew it was wrong
From the moment you held to a gun

I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you to be full and whole

The season opens, the moon coming out
The coyotes scream to the night
And seen through the trees on a path headed south
A lion retreats from her mountain

But stay my great girl, no don't leave us now
High in the branches you lay
Still and silent, your gaze keep us wild
And I'll never give you away

I need you
I need you
I need you
I need you to be full and whole
