Lyrics
SPACE IN BETWEEN
Music and lyrics: (c.) 2023 Bill Dake ASCAP
Chilly early morning
Frosty silver ground
Trees are getting naked
Just a few leaves still hangin' 'round
But, you're warm and toasty
Snuggled 'neath those covers
While I'm here watching you sleep
I'm not drunk, I'm not sober
I'm in some SPACE IN BETWEEN
Where the sound of your breathin'
Has me believin'
That the world's not as crazy as it seems
Scrambled eggs and sausage
Brandy in our coffee
Friendly food to feed the soul
Then, wrapped in autumn colors
We'll venture through the hillside
And let the woodlands take control
Here beneath a sunburned sky
Above a painted valley
In this SPACE IN BETWEEN
Where trees have full dominion
The winds hold no opinion
Where we're free to shed the the voice of the machine
And as we listen carefully
Ignore that cold cacophony
Of noise meant to divide us into tribes
We'll touch the earth and breathe the air
Forget the tech and the billionaires
Remember what it means to be alive
As we wander back with lighter steps
Thankful for our home
Glad for friends who've stayed the course
And friends still now unknown
We'll lend a steady shoulder
A place for them to lean,
Practice ancient lessons learned
From a SPACE IN BETWEEN
