Ease on with the soft breeze at your bare back
There's nothing new here so get runnin' fast
Ease on with the breeze soft on your pale back
There's nothing new here so carry light with your pack
We both knew we'd never reach that dotted finish line
Carry your soul close n' know there ain't never any time

Slow down after the season floats into Fall
Lift your feet when you cross that rocky river bed
Slow down after reason drifts into a rocky fall
Lift your feet as you trek past the rocky river bed
I'll be with you but only through sky lit milk white stars
Soon you'll forget what we even meant to finish too

Carry your heart close with clear ribbons n' ivory bows
Cause' many men will want to cut close to see only you
Carry your heart close with ribbons n' blue yellow bows
For many men will cut n' turn unruly for you n' only you
I will not lie that at nights I will dream to do quite the same
With my lids pinched I'll crack n' think of the miles I've yet to gain

Neither eye nor I could see the beauty which you are
So so long farewell capture your soul in living well
Neither eye nor I could see the beauty which you are
So so long farewell capture thy' soul n' fare thee well
And when you look through your window in the twilight of night
Just whisper for me once "you did good an' alright"
