Lyrics

almost august

here the margins of water are thin
and people, some dance for crop water

some don?t bother
they offer nothing
beyond the payment of bills

it?s hard to wait
when the wind blows
little drops through heavy air
it?s hard to wait with the promise of something
a promise of sometime

Chorus:
chant
juniper coyote
chant
cottonwood and scrubjay
chant
scrub oak and manzanita
chant the last thing you noticed
that made any difference
to anything which matters
chant as if there?s something you understood

what viciousness
a god who answers prayers with money
lord bless my real estate

chant sacraments
sunlight on the ocean
the physics of evaporation
sing oh blessed wind
come north to us this summer

Chorus:
chant
juniper coyote
chant
cottonwood and scrubjay
chant
scruboak and manzanita
chant the last thing you noticed
that made any difference
to anything which mattered
chant as if there is something you understood

I ache for cumulus tomorrow
and a sky alive with lightning
the ATMs all silent
in the truth of rain and life
