lyrics

felt like five generations had passed
saw the wheat grow, saw it turnin’ in your hands
but it was only one course of the moon
til’ those wheels touched the ground at last
and i’d know your name

well my brother, your lantern’s been out
oh my friend, how your garden’s run down
but you write pretty words in the night
so is it worth all the wounds that you count
and am i one, oh am i one

but when you held me that night in the desert
i forgot where i was, lost track of where we’re standing
i was melting into the heavens
with that wide sky above us
every star just watching us swaying
and then i thought to myself, lord is this right
did i lead you on
and then it was gone

come o’er, there’s a ghost that must be named
well it sees its soul in another, but it’s afraid
for if i write you these words in the night
oh it’s to tell you i don’t feel the same
will i haunt you now
or will you forget my name
no i don’t feel the same
