A meadow
What are you talking about?
I’ve got solace tonight
And it was so hard to find
All you do is talk and talk and talk all the time
No it doesn’t seem right
What are you doing here?
Get it all off your chest
Give your soul some rest
Just learn to sit still
And just root like the trees
With the moss and the leaves
You are golden now

KK

You open bottles with nothing but your teeth
You make your money with a bike taxi
And you’re so strong when you carry me
You’re beautiful I love you
You are so beautiful with your shaved head
Your high cheeks bones and cheerfulness
Your smiles changes lives and your joy is from the Lord
You’re beautiful I love you
We go to church and the kids always dance
You go up cuz you want to be with them
You don’t know the moves so you fake it and you smile
You’re beautiful I love you
The only brass band in our hometown
We march through the streets with the notes blaring loud
And you play trombone though you never have before
You’re beautiful I love you
The back of my house is a great big farm
The only place is KK with lettuce I’ve hear
You don’t know how to cook it so you put it in your eggs
You’re beautiful I love you
You love it when I tell you dirty jokes
You cackle and bend and laugh til it hurts
But you taught me how to love the ones I’m with
You taught me how to loves those who are different
You taught me how to father
How to pastor
How to pray
You’re beautiful I love

Feels

You always say what you mean to say
“There’s a love so pure you want to change”
You choose your words so carefully
Biting your tongue when you should
But it feels right
Saying everything we know
In the night time
We will sleep all on our own
It seems as though your ears should hang
Right down to the floor
The way you sit and listen to me
Knowing how to be
And it feels right
Just sitting here so soft
And it feels right
Letting our hair grow
And it feels right
It feels right
And if it feels right
We know
You and I and a love so tender
I will wait with you

Wedding Day

I remember on our wedding day
It was beautiful how we all sang
It’s not you and me only
But God, our friends, and families
It’s not you and me only
But pictures something bigger
I remember how my life changed
Now all that I can do is sing
I’m a bride and I will be
Draped in gowns of glory
I’m a bride and I will be loved
In the darkness you’re right beside me
And when it’s brightest, you’re right beside me

Loving Kindness
03:45
|

I am found by loving kindness
It’s all around underneath the things that I hold on to
Stored up in the attic
The boxes mold
And the mirrors are cracking
Cuz the summer has damaged all I've known to be
It’s somewhere underneath my skin
A loving kindness
It welcomes me and hems me in
A loving kindness
I am known by loving kindness
It’s overgrown all the weeds of the garden
It’s gone to seed ever so slightly
It’s good for me
Cuz the sun in the sky
Gives me what I need
It's only underneath my skin
A loving kindness
It welcomes me and hems me in
A loving kindness
It’ll be alright
It just took a long time
It’ll all be fine
It's only underneath my skin
A loving kindness

Honest
03:12

It’s not that hard to be honest
Swallow your pride and be honest
Just do what’s right
All of the time
Speaking the truth
Like you know you ought to
It’s not that hard to be honest
Swallow your pride and be honest
Staring at the back of what I want
I try and try but I never can cut off
Fiery arrows piercing through the night
If only I could change
And be a better man
A knowledge bank for
You and me and everything we now
You and me and everything
You and me and everything we know
It’s not that hard to be honest
But I find it hard if I’m honest

Yellow House
03:55
|

|
Yellow houses gone
Tree in the living room
The roots go down so deep and big and strong
And show us how to be
Hidden garden found
Moss and flowers are growing well
But let’s sit down and rest here in the shade
And learn how to be
Life and action go
Hand in hand or so we’ve always been told
But we barely talk or even sit at all
We’ve forgotten how to be
The cattail growing near the road
The grass between the sidewalk cracks
And I don’t think I’ve ever been alone
The leaves are buds and then turn green
But soon are brown and gone again
The cycle is the only thing we know
Hallelujah
