The Quiet Ceased
Sali the man of the Pacific Coast waits quietly for the rains to come
Every autumn lets his face grow long
When the air mists he breaths
When he exhales a breath that has waited
Walks till his feet grow strong
Walks till his legs grow long
And he lives
What's this I have metal in my bones
What a bliss I have verse and four lobes
It is here and it lives again
The whole city sighed
And the pavement released
The clouds opened up
And the quiet ceased
Rain rain slow and low as Pete and Woody in harmony
Path laid in front of me and the traffic clear
All of these cars and their drivers pass by with their noise and their urgency
Drifting inevitably toward fear
Not me I have metal in my bones
Not this I have verse and four lobes
It is here and it lives again
A breath and a sigh
And a lasting release
The clouds opened up
And the quiet ceased
Every autumn lets his face grow long
When the air mists he breaths
When he exhales a breath that has waited
Walks till his feet grow strong
Walks till his legs grow long
And he lives
What's this I have metal in my bones
What a bliss I have verse and four lobes
It is here and it lives again
The whole city sighed
And the pavement released
The clouds opened up
And the quiet ceased
Rain rain slow and low as Pete and Woody in harmony
Path laid in front of me and the traffic clear
All of these cars and their drivers pass by with their noise and their urgency
Drifting inevitably toward fear
Not me I have metal in my bones
Not this I have verse and four lobes
It is here and it lives again
A breath and a sigh
And a lasting release
The clouds opened up
And the quiet ceased
