Bottom of the Sea Blues
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
There's a space in the heavens
There's a hole in my heart
There's a lack of fine dining gone to work on my art
There's a flavour of fullness
There's an empty retreat
And the restaurant buffet is an all I can eat
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Onward to get up
Too quick to get down
While love, food, and money
Do all the trade in this town
With eyes looking hollow
And my bones are still white
I haven't the patience to stay out tonight
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Stuck with thoughts of the buttercups
And the bees that do know
They suck on the yellow as nature is told
I'll suck on the colors that I find in the sea
The blues and the greens, they don't bother me
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
My soul is in the trees
It's in the sap that fills the wood
It's in the rings that tell her age
It's in the smoke that marks the day
It's in the fire in my heart
It's in the embers in the soot
It's in the place I put the ash
It's in the soil it’s in the grass
It's in the miles of all the herd
It's in the beetles and the birds
It's in the feathers that I found one morning lying on the ground
It's hallelujah and oh
It's where I’ve been and where I go
It's in the people that I meet
It's kneeling silent at their feet
It's ever dutifully yours, it stems my pride
It opens doors
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Colours, they don’t swallow me
Colours, the night time set me free
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
There's a space in the heavens
There's a hole in my heart
There's a lack of fine dining gone to work on my art
There's a flavour of fullness
There's an empty retreat
And the restaurant buffet is an all I can eat
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Onward to get up
Too quick to get down
While love, food, and money
Do all the trade in this town
With eyes looking hollow
And my bones are still white
I haven't the patience to stay out tonight
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Stuck with thoughts of the buttercups
And the bees that do know
They suck on the yellow as nature is told
I'll suck on the colors that I find in the sea
The blues and the greens, they don't bother me
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
My soul is in the trees
It's in the sap that fills the wood
It's in the rings that tell her age
It's in the smoke that marks the day
It's in the fire in my heart
It's in the embers in the soot
It's in the place I put the ash
It's in the soil it’s in the grass
It's in the miles of all the herd
It's in the beetles and the birds
It's in the feathers that I found one morning lying on the ground
It's hallelujah and oh
It's where I’ve been and where I go
It's in the people that I meet
It's kneeling silent at their feet
It's ever dutifully yours, it stems my pride
It opens doors
My age is my condition
My love is my intent
I bathed time with ageless love
Or forget what came and went
For a well full of content
Colours, they don’t swallow me
Colours, the night time set me free
