Even Now

I can’t help but keep a lookout

Try to find the way it worked out

Covering my loneliness nowhere

See it for the art at any rate

To suffer and not change

Change my heart almost daily

Mother me with warmth and safety

Bound by the days we spent them through

Held by the eyes I look at you

Bustling through Barcelona

Feel the heart inside her

Working by the hammer, sees you through

Working by the light makes us two

Tired of protecting my loneliness

The greatest thing I’ve known is holiness

When there was hunger you held me

When I was only 23

Watch me in my great departure

Daughterhood to greener pasture

Distance is required

Distance is desired

Even now

Climb on board my slow train, baby

To suffer and not change

Won’t see you through

Bound by the days, we spent them through

I see you in your glory, there you are

Gentle in it's action, falling star

Simple in it's knowing

Words without a home

I can't help but keep watch, darling

Distance is required

Distance is desired

Even now
