Where are You Now?
The Up / Down EP
where are you now?
the garden is dizzy with the sunrise / the colors taste cool on the edge of the dew / the scent explodes from within us / everything old is re-made new / with effortless motion we cover the ground. / the fastest of animals can't even keep up / we perch high in tree tops and we glisten / the moon's half as bright when we make love. / where were you when i was dreaming? / where are the arms that held me so tight. / where is the sun so late this evening / why are the stars hiding their light? look at the stars hiding their light / the voice of the Father rumbles like thunder / but in the soft of our ear it is a sweet lullaby / glorious days pass without number / there's only hello there is no goodbye / a different hue on the horizon. / a forbidden seed told not to touch / and how red your lips are (stained) with deception. / while the taste of knowledge burns on my tongue / where were you when i was dreaming? / where are the arms that held me and sighed.. / where is the sun so late this evening / why are the stars hiding their light? / where is the river headed so hurried / into the ocean somewhere to hide / where are you now, my children / what have you done my beautiful bride? / gravity's chains surround us / the deafening absence of Your Voice in the rain. / the mask of leaves i gather around us / does so little to cover our shame / and where were you when i was dreaming / where are the arms that held me so tight?/ where is the sun so late this evening?/ why have the heavens started to cry?/ where is the river headed so hurried? / into the ocean somewhere to hide? / where are you now, my children? / what have you done my beautiful bride?
