In Spring Alchemy (Lyrics)

In Spring Alchemy (Lyrics)

New beginnings and sunshine daydreams in the text of songs,
And recollections of ourselves,
In gifts given in 6/8 time, and time is still.
You’re something I never thought I’d see, in my own flawed recognition,
But now I see you for what you are, in grace, where I never thought I’d be.

I was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1999
Without words what do we have?
I said without words what do we have?

Spring thaw, I’m drowning in spring downpours
And words finally said to willing listeners,
Lives lived in the manner we’d imagined.
I’m cleaned out, I’m sobered up,
Pen’s flowing too fast for words or recognition.
And in spring alchemy I wake up not alone,
Though old mistakes follow me and wake me in the night.

I was destroyed by fire and rebuilt in 1999
Without words what do we have? I said without words what do we have?
