lyrics

bury all of your prayers
so you can find them anywhere.
cast them into the wind,
so you hear them in everything.
oh child, you will lay down in the light.

child, find your home--get there by walking alone.

it's past that time of year again
when all your energy is spent
trying to keep things from changing,
but the light is fading.

we kill a little piece each day
to keep the bigger death at bay
bury the still parts in the ground
and trust they will know when to come out.

standing at the door of fall
i can see its light dancing on the walls
i want to learn to dance like that.

and i want to be here with you
but like dust motes winking out of view
we're in a long hall
and these are old rooms.

and this is not my tune--
but it's mine to use. this is an old song,
these are old blues.
