lyrics

I write a letter every winter
to slip under the door
of that old abandoned house
where we stayed before
I'm not writing it to you
or to what might have been
just sharing the memories
with the ghosts in between

and the chances are remote
that someone will look
through all those letters in that hallway
to find the path we took

Those days keep slowly fading
old coats hanging in my closet
I try to mend the memories
but that never works, does it
Time has slipped away and run off
laughing down the road
Hope left to dress as truth
lights my lonely road

and the chances are remote
that someone will look
through all those letters in that hallway
to find the path we took

Ever since we parted ways
my dreams keep me awake
it's not what I think will be
it's the choices that I make
one day I'll write it in a book
tie our story down with fetters
for now words drift unfettered
into these doorstop letters

and the chances are remote
that someone will look
through all those letters in that hallway
to find the path we took
still I keep writing
and hope one day they'll see
the truth of you
and what you mean to me

beauty is... tears in laughter, small joys even in the midst of sorrow, a drifting feather, a cold beach, the wind over the ocean, cold fingers on the skin making your heart warm, storm clouds and lightning, rain, the sun through green leaves in the morning, voices singing, the rhythm of a drum, the beat of your heart, the sigh of your breath and moments of pure relaxation...and a ukulele helps. ... more
