The Upper Room

Sunlight
I lost track of time
I wander through patterns of fragrance and light
In the valley of the shadow of the sky

Wind sighs
Ghosts fly
Torn curtains flutter and rise
In the valley of the shadow of our time

In the upper room
On a shaded avenue
I'll ache for you
As we while away
The last of our summer days
In the upper room

Mown grass
Hay season last
I lie down in green pastures
In the valley of the shadow of the past

Stand tall
Arch your back and yawn
Time shepherds us languid and drawn
Through the valley of the shadow
Of the dawn
In the upper room

On a shaded avenue
I'll ache for you
As we while away
The last of our summer days
In the upper room
All these long summer afternoons
In the upper room

Lie, lie awake recalling
Try and make the sky stop falling
In a quiet room
All these long summer afternoons
In the upper room

Praying hands
Funeral parlor fans
I lie down beside still waters
In the valley of the shadow of man

Midnight
I lost track of time
I wander through patterns of fragrance and light (light)
In the valley of the shadow of the sky

In the upper room (lie)
With a shaded garden view (lie awake recalling)
I'll lay with you as we while away (try)
The last of our summer days (and make the sky stop falling)
In the upper room (in a quiet room)
All these long summer afternoons
In the upper room
