The spirit blows where it will
So can I get a little bit over here
A constant need to reach
For the stars above you and me
Sister moon
Will your tides rise up too soon
And I’m gonna move
To a northland where stars are in view
To a northland where stars are in view
The heat knows how to creep
Into an afternoon in early spring
So I asked that lady by the sea
If she was starting to worry
Sister moon
Will your tides rise up too soon
And I’m gonna move
To a northland where stars are in view
To a northland where stars are in view

Mimas

One day they will shake this trunk
And all the fruit will fall from the tree
And we will eat for free
It’s the chaos of God’s will
Take a trip to Omaha
Driving slowly in the snow
Crossing state lines after dark
My family’s kept that house for years
It’s the chaos of God’s will
That I’m still living here
One day and a woman will walk
Straight through the farmhouse door
Tell me why this art is for free for all
Drive out west leave the chestnut tree
Find a place where we can live
Fall in love in our giant Mimas home
People turn into other things

Juniper

I wish I had a forest full of Junipers
I could breathe and be easy for awhile
Why can’t we see the trees for the woods just once
Not worrying how to use it all
We spent the evening
Sparks in the sky
And you told me that you
Would rather die
I begged you to listen
It’s not how it seems
But a mind can betray you
On all sorts of things
Let’s spread them all across the Northern hemisphere
Have countless goods to share
I want to lay sweetly in mother earth
Where juniper branches sway

She lived in a college town on Cedar Street
A tree in the front yard that once covered the earth
Wet from a shower, turns off the light
Dead for a minute, then comes back to life
She moved from that eastern town somewhere on cedar street
The greater the number
Harder the cry of
Fire Inside
If there was a problem
Someone would have already screamed
Fire
Fire
Fire on the inside
She had a vision of, looming trees
begged her to go out west save them all
Picked up a man somewhere on the drive
An Iowan who needed to feel alive
Tied to the redwoods they cried for all of us
The greater the number
The harder the cry of
Fire
If there was a problem
Someone would have already screamed
Fire
Fire
Fire on the inside

Such Love Does

Such love does
the sky now pour,
that whenever I stand in a field,
I have to wring out the light
when I get
Home.

I can still hear them rustle
I can still see their light
The way that they could catch the wind blow
Makes me still wonder why
You couldn’t see them like a family
Maybe sisters standing tall
Yet they would carry me through summer
As I swung all day long
Oh where oh where did you go
I was just passing by to say hello
Does this man know what he’s done
For the ease of a fall without some snow
I thought they were so ancient
When i was just a child
Jokes on me cause they were children
Still waiting to grow tall
All those years alone not really
There were friends standing by
You can say they didn’t feel it
But i cried when they died
Oh where oh where did you go
I was just passing by to say hello
Does this man know what he’s done
for the ease of a life lived for one

Robin your mind’s a pocket universe
Robin your mom named you from her favorite bird
Seeing the world in a different way
Shouldn't be wrong
Worryin’ about where we’re spinning to
We should be alarmed
Robin we fall short so beautifully
Lying here then you’re floating down the creek
Seeing the world in a different way
Shouldn't be wrong
Worryin’ about where we’re spinning to
We should be alarmed
(instrumental break)
Robin your mind’s a pocket universe
Robin you remind me so much of her
Seeing the world in a different way
Shouldn't be wrong

Let’s ride our bikes down to 48th
A drop in a pool that never permeates
And I found rhubarb even if it’s late
Find me something sweet and I’ll make it okay
August in the heat
Beneath a shady tree
I hope our kids can feel the breeze
All my dreams so free
But tell me how to be
In this late summer heat
I’m scared of
All the things they’ll miss, Decembers turning white
The beauty of the forest the Ogalala still high
The air was heavy even when it’s late
The nighttime will come but the cool will stay away

Wonder

My mind can’t stop reeling
Thoughts that I once was told
Your father he is scary
Thumping all the rules that
Keep him cold
Let’s hold it all wonder
Hold it all in wonder
I don’t know

A Fox, A Bird

A house for sale is not a home
And we are what we’ve done
I think the world began in love
Shouldn’t be a problem to solve
You wouldn’t catch me climbing
Or winning or at the race
I’d rather fall into a whole place
Spend your whole life saving
Never learn to give
Someone said “what you seek is what you get”
Oooooo
A fox, a bird, my Rosie girl
A light exists in them all
They know how to live better
Than I do
And in the end, Bonnie said
It’s all love
You wouldn’t catch me climbing
Or winning or at the race
I’d rather fall into a whole place
Spend your whole life saving
Never learn to give
Someone said “what you seek is what you get”
Oooo
