Jewels

Hosing the yard, the dogs recoil
The water is not water, it's the longest sound in the world
They could go, the gate is open wide
But they'd rather keep me in sight

Routine surrounds the chaos moving in your eye
Like stillness around a flickering candle light

I listen to the words pour through
The hole of your brain, like the rain
Yeah they strike me, randomly, wherever I go
Catch me off guard sometimes just staring at the lines of the road

Routine surrounds the chaos moving in your eye
Like stillness around a flickering candle light
Is it really real this time?
Is it really real?
Or is life pulling my leg again?

I like the wry sidewalk candy wrappers
That always match the tiny jewel inside of flowers
And you are one green jewel floating in my eye
We like to play but never win the staring contest against

The sky surrounding everything all of the time
Like the sky is the sky, and you're everything in my life
Is it really real this time?
Is it really real?
Or is life pulling my leg again?
