Lyrics

I will plant the seed of us with the ash of a long winter. I will exhale it all away... and begin anew. I'm going down, I'm going under. returning to soil. returning to seed. I don't know where I've been, but it is not here where I belong. So, I will sleep now and i will dream of tomorrow On the branch of the wild pear tree he sits, a spangled starling. Each morning I watch for him, with the sun he comes with song. In the breath that moves through wooden flutes. in the sigh of the strings of a dilruba, in the lament of a spanish guitar, I remember here in the soil, I remember who I am... here in the seed, I remember I'm going down, I'm going under. I'm returning to soil. I'm returning to seed. i'm returning to you I don't know where I've been, but it is not here with you where I belong. So, I will sleep now and dream of tomorrow, So, I will sleep now and dream of tomorrow
