Hold Within

One man singing is another man sung
Try singing out from the mouth to the tongue
One hand hitting on the rim of the drum
Shell shock voice like a lighter in my lung

Leveling the pines for the time, let it pass
Same time that will wash you like the grounds from a glass
Raking out the backyard, taking out the trash
Listen to the sounds of the hounds in the grass

But oh, jawbone, what you gonna do?
Know it glows as it grows inside of you

Oleo whistled and he said to me
"You know, this is just how it was supposed to be
Dog at my heel and a hummingbird beak
Baking in the kitchen with the bread and a bee"

And you know I go reach for a pen
To discover a love that lives within

One man singing is another man sung
Still feel the heat of the liquor on my tongue
One hand hitting on the rim of the drum
Taking up a day 'till the giving is done

Calm as the salt laced on your skin
No I'd love to see the love that you hold within

I'd love to see the love that you hold within
I'd love to see the love that you hold within
I'd love to see the love that you hold within
I'd love to see the love that you hold within
