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"
