Time Away From Time

Do you agree
That every day slips into night
Every word is a lie?
A movement of lips
Gone as fast as a kiss
From a lover of just one night
Everyone I love will die

I am only
A moment to a mountain
A droplet to the sea
And the ancient seeds live in me
I know the river
She's a friend of mine
Sparse and serpentine
She lives her freedom
And I live mine
Can she always be that kind?
Can she always be that kind?

Steer me away from
The minutes and the hours into
The desert and the pines
Time away from time
Time away from time

The light lingered longer
And we found some other stones to turn
Another prophecy to burn
I feel the swell
Surround me from time to time
There are still mountains in my mind

Steer me into
The valleys and the orchards
The desert and the pines
Time away from time
Thoughts away from mind

Steer me into
The sweetness of the sea
And the ether of the sky
Time away from time
Time away from time
