Horizon
Why these cloudy eyes my friend, these thoughtful frowning brows
I’m afraid to lose again what’s only just been found
Why is everybody so sad I ask and look at you
Just don’t forget what you love, you say, it is the only truth
Then you point at the horizon, that’s where we belong
Face towards a line that draws a promise to move on for
Cause we are the hopeful ones we are destined to see
The beauty of what is now and what is still to be
Will you always remind me of how to sing out loud
I can hardly hear my heartbeat now, muted by the old doubts
Oh say all’s not lost there’s a place for us of sea breeze, fires and trees
There is kindness and there’s friends around
And music, always music
Do you see the horizon, that’s where we belong
Face towards a line that draws a promise to move on for
Cause we are the hopeful ones we are destined to see
The beauty of what is now and what is still to be.

Footsteps
I never meant to wait for you
To listen for your footsteps on the floor
The moment you came back I never meant to fall around your neck
But oh my arms don’t belong to me no more
I never meant to smile at these blue eyes like this
Reach out for your hair, let my fingers run through
And though I was alarmed to feel so comfortable in your arms
I couldn’t move an inch away from you
Cause I have never breathed so calm in years
Can’t remember the last time I laughed so loud
And I had not planned to miss you in the end
But then plans are never meant for working out
And it’s no use to mention what was never my intention
And there’s no use to try, to turn back and deny
Even if the last thing I meant to do is falling for…

Into the Woods
Stretch your arms out and reach
For the world above your head and down your at your feet
We have seen and felt so much
Now all is green and all is quietly breathing touch
Walk with me into the woods
Back to something simple, something good
And make me think a little bit less
In the sheltered space between us I can rest
And forget what happens around us while we’re here
Plunge backwards into the river
Let the clear current wash it out and take it down the mountain
Leaving cold water tingling on our skin
Walk with me into the woods
Back to something simple, something good
And make me care a little bit less
In the sheltered space between us I can rest
Over roots and moss and stones our steps are quick and light
Deep inside we make a hut our home
Share the silence, share a smile, a place for us to hide
And ground where we can grow
Stretch your arms out and reach
For the world above your head and down your at your feet
We have seen and felt so much
Now all is green and all is quietly breathing touch.

Autumn Come for Me
I’m so tired I have to lie down and watch the clouds for a while now
See them wandering slowly
Indifferent to all I’ve been fighting for
All the lives that I’ve led and the things that I loved and goodbyes that I’ve said
and the joy and sadness upon your face
And I welcome change and I try to be now
But sometimes I still wonder how
To grow old
Autumn come for me, I’m waiting by your door
Give a fresh breeze to my glowing skin and hold
Me in your worn out arms and gentle light
Like grandmas hands, so soft and dark
When I was a child and I didn’t find it so hard to let go
Grandpa would hum along, in the kitchen to an old song
Peeling pears and cracking nuts and preparing bread in little cuts for me
I can hear him laugh and shake his head about something grandma said
And she would wink at me over the table and I’d wink back
Oh I guess that’s how you grow old
Oh I guess that’s how you grow old

Sandpaperhands
Deeper, deep into the soil I work my hands all day
Densest grass, through winding roots and damp and heavy clay
My fingers cut, skin roughened up, and all the structures fade
I breathe the forest, rolling greens are running through my veins
Deeper, deep into the sea you work your feet all day
Coldest water, forceful winds against the rocky bay
Your toes are cut, your soles are numb, and all the structures fade
You breathe the ocean, rolling blues in the rhythm of the waves
And when the night comes we’ll return to our house by the shore
Sandpaperhands, sandpaperfeet will meet and feel once more
I will cover you like autumn leaves and keep you warm
You will hold me close as if you keep me from the storm
And every night we will return to our house by the shore
Sweetest soil and salty sea will meet and feel once more
Fingertips and lips run through the scratches and the scars
As we lie sheltered by the darkness and the stars.
