nolan patton - pentecost, 1987 lyrics

Loading...

time is running away
from this morning and this day
i see things much clearer now
my eyes still hold the world somehow

and i can feel the heat of spring
screen doors don’t mean anything
the bridges i now walk upon
have been burned in the midnight sun

and i am coming home
at the first light today
this river must be better
than the fields along the way

on the way where we walked beneath skies
on the way where it all came undone
on my way out of this town tonight
into shadows of the night i will run

the fire that comes into the room now brings a glow with the warmth
and it finds its way to you now, your eyes shining through the storm
i heard every word that you said then, but i could not understand
i can’t explain away the reasons for the things that have no end

that won’t end by the side of the road
won’t stop where the water line fades
won’t reach to the valley below
even if it’s the last thing i’ll say

i know you see the way forward, and you can see yourself out
it all rose up in the distance, where it had no reason to be found
can you hold it like the hunger that has held you through the heat?
can you use what left you broken, to build something new in me?

and maybe these days will slow down
maybe i’ll find a way to see
maybe the something i never found
was really someone to believe
