How’d you find me, sinking like a ship to the bottom of the sea?
Another life I’ve been your mother
How fortunate to be born as your lover
You came to me to wake me from the deepest sleep
More beautiful than anything I’ve ever seen
My love, your heart is all I trust
And I am lost in a wilderness without your touch
All I ever wanted was to live life brokenhearted
All I ever wanted was to live life brokenhearted
I’ve spent so many lives staring in your eyes
I'm just a child drawn to your light
I know I’ve been confused, ignoring the truth
But what you’ve given me is coming through
It’s burning up all of my rules
Deeper than skin, deeper than bone, your open heart’s become my home
your open heart’s become my home. your open heart’s become my home
I’ve spent so many lives staring in your eyes
I'm just a child drawn to your light
I know I’ve been confused, ignoring the truth
But what you’ve given me is coming through
It’s burning up all of my rules

Lost in the setting sun, so many fears to overcome
Lost in the setting sun, so much work yet to be done
Doubt it comes in waves. Echoes fill this hollow cave
The doubt, it comes in waves. Echoes fill this hollow cave
And I’m so tired of trying to keep, to keep you by my side
Oh, by my side
Oh yea. It’s all happening. Oh yea. It’s all happening. It’s all happening
Do I wanna be free or do I want to fill all my desires?
Oh yea. It’s all happening. Oh yea. It’s all happening. It’s all happening
Lord it comes in waves and sweeps me off of my feet again
Lord I feel your pain. I feel it in my bones. I feel it in my marrow, from where the blood flows.
Oh yea. It’s all happening. Oh yea. It’s not going anywhere. It’s not going anywhere.
Lost in the setting sun, so many fears to overcome
Lost in the setting sun, so much work yet to be done

Love and Space

Over mountains you have crawled to find what you had lost
Before you were a man, you held it in your palm
But now you are afraid because you can’t recall how you became aware of mountains you have crawled
Love and space, what hides behind your face, interpenetrates
Love and space, no line can separate
Over mountains you have crawled to find what you had lost
Before you were a man, you held it in your palm and swallowed it whole
Love and space, what hides behind your face, interpenetrates
Love and space, no line can separate
Oh my love, you’ve been so brave, embracing fear while giving your heart away
And you’ve been searching for your place when all you are is love and space

Throughout the day and night, look at your mind
When you look what do you find? Nothing abides
And if nothing, if nothing is there
Just Let go and relax
Oh look there’s a tree. Eat the fruit. Spread the seed
Watch the shadows that we cast playing on the cool grass
Each day’s a lifetime, each night’s a death
But don’t be afraid my love, it’s all for the best
Throughout the day and night, look at your mind
Look and what do you find? Nothing abides. Nothing abides
Please lord, send a guide, someone who can shed a light
For when I look inside, I’m terrified of what I find
That all this, it is my mind
And I’m living each day on borrowed time
Throughout the day and night, look at your mind
Look and what do you find? Nothing abides. Nothing abides
