"Higher Places" lyrics
"Higher Places"
Where the birds are piping
Without limitation
And incomparable stripe coloured bees
Pass over me
Black, black, blacker air De Shelby dares accumulate
At the breaking of the dawn
White, white, whiter than the tooth of man
A shard of delph or eggs under a crow
What if it's all gone the other way
And Hell is above us, heaven forbid
How will we ever know
Where the bicycle ends
And the body begins?
I feel my spokes itching
Still, still, stiller than John Callahan
His expertise, the police at least maintain
They ride, ride, ride a three speed when
I close my heavy eyes, after a dose of day
What if it's all gone the other way
And Hell is above us, heaven forbid
How will we ever know
Where the bicycle ends
And the body begins? I feel my spokes itching
And my pedals are aching
Think my brakes need replacing
And my tyres are tired
Where the birds are piping
Without limitation
And the days are as long
And the nights are as strange
As anything found on O'Nolan's page
So where do we go?

Every step's just a step until the one where you stop

S. Carey - "Take It With Me" Phone's off the hook, no one knows where we are
It's been a long time since I drank champagne
The ocean's blue, as blue as your eyes

Old long since gone, now way...
Iron & Wine - "Calm On The Valley" There's a rooster, a hen, a black dog
By my kid in the yard
And I've tattooed the head
Of the woman I've wed on my arm
We sit on the lawn
And she winks and she yawns
At the sound that the setting...
