Lyrics

Spring

it's spring in this place
and now it's dusk
back home in this little town

on the streets I hear
mostly cars
sometimes voices
but mostly cars

out there the sun sets
behind ridgelines lost to houses

there is wholeness still
it's hidden back in these old hills
away from too many roads
away from too many people

it's still there

I looked in the city today
and they had no ideas
just outfits and lifestyles
the greed that hunger becomes
left too long unfed

tomorrow morning there'll be more light
sweet photosynthesis
will offer her chlorophyll
affections yet again

CHORUS
Out there the sun sets
Behind ridgelines lost to houses
There is wholeness still
It?s hidden back in these old hills
Away from too many roads
Away from too many people

It?s still out there, the sun sets
Behind ridgelines, lost to houses
There is wholeness still
It?s hidden back in these old hills
Away from too many roads
Away from too many people
It?s still there
Oh
Still there
in the city it always feels like twilight now
desperate unwanted knowledge
strident against the skin

a poison wind is rushing by
metal and vapors which
chlorophyll
must have a hard time loving

CHORUS

it?s still there
