It is in these drifting times that my fingers taste
And I know you in your sweetness
Mercurial violet runs from fresh gleaming skies
Washed white in the dew of recent mourning
Gold will tumble from the mountains
Sending up feathered songs like stars
As it floods the wasted earth
But now it is dark
It is dark
A shadow stillness hides the rustling ground
Steadily creeping dullness; home for me
You are here feeling and hearing and knowing me
Don't leave me
Gold will tumble from the mountains
Sending up feathered songs like stars
As it floods the wasted earth
But now it is dark
It is dark
Sometimes I wonder if you are even there
But I know that you're here, I can taste you in the air
You are here with me, God please stay with me
Dawn is in the anxious ground
I hear it like humming gears still spinning
I am so blinded by the dawn
I've faltered in this, Oh my God
Oh my God, I choose you over the rest
Because you are home for me
Take me home
