"Take It All In" lyrics

"Take It All In"

The light is leaving, it's that time again
Crossing the canopy, river and fen
Glowing in ombre as everything dims
And I'm trying to take it all in

Do you remember Nicollet Creek
Cut through the valley in layers of green
Color and water no moment the same
More than a heart can contain

Life is relentlessly changing a vapor
Fire at the edges of kindling and paper
Dancing in half light off on a whim
How do I take it all in

I listen closely to what you are saying
Timbre and syntax, detail and pacing
The light is leaving it's that time again
And I'm trying to take it all in
