This song also appears on our album, Two-Way Power, in it's original format. It was reworked so we can play it live since the original version contains no banjo or guitar. We like the way this one turned out in good old 6/8 time.
lyrics
Oh, how morning sunlight squares on pre-arranged and pushed in chairs, for now we look to the warming skies for the ones that tell and the ones that can't be told.
A breeze can pass through the summers as a mother drifts through her lovers.
You know we can be fine to bury a head or two.
I will go on to tell these stories if we have to part and you, you won't be the one left when they move.
Not everyone in the market cares if science shows how porous thin we are.
Can't leap through the windows fires but they'll all look down to weigh you when you do.
When they do,
a breeze can pass through the summers as a mother drifts through her lovers.
You know we can be fine to bury a head or two.
Pines will be burning through summers and the boys will be gone to their mothers.
When the houses are left the lights shine right through.
We had it all in the daughters we had come to free,
the towers we once climbed to see the view.
To see the view.
