From Halcyon

Intro: verse 1 I finished writing this song in the summer Now I'm watching the snow flakes fall As the years go by I wonder if I Really like it here at all I woke this morning in a strange town The truth is I thought I'd be dead by now I guess I'll keep on going till they find me out With love from Halcyon verse 2 And I'm glad I stayed out drinking Put some medicine in my mind To distract me from this grain of sand In the middle of space and of time This morning my head is losing the war It's cold outside as I walk out the door And I get the feeling this has happened before With love from Halcyon And I can feel myself disappearing In the early morning sun And I fade with the road I'm walking on With love from Halcyon verse 3 As the morning breaks over Southampton I'm wondering how long and how far Still thinking about that old friend As the waitress trips on my guitar See he stopped singing songs and he moved away Heard he's picking apples down near Rattlesnake bay I can picture him now singing "Lowlands away" With love from Halcyon I remember early evening First time summer showed her face We sat outside with a GB and wine Talking about the good old days When we woke up in Paris all covered in dust And the man on the boat pulled a knife on us If time is money then money isn't much With love from Halcyon And I can feel us disappearing In the early morning sun For we were just dead men walking With love from Halcyon Well many years gone I've been travelling on Searching across this land Now I don't know what I've been looking for yet Hope someday I'll understand I'm just a copy of a copy my own version of time, I'll never see yours and you'll never see mine But we still see the same sunsets and walk the same lines With love from Halcyon Started writing this song in the winter, Now I'm watching the spring blossom fall Tell me how can the difference between hours and years Feel so endless and yet so small I left that house about 4 this morning And I got a feeling they'll carry on going Till the cigarettes freeze over and the whisky stops flowing They'll be singing "Lowlands away" And if Halcyon is the days gone by And she is the one that I love And if now is the place that I'm supposed to be Then it isn't long enough For someday soon I'll be a photograph Underneath my grandson's bed But I heard there's A universe somewhere WHere this song Wasn't written Yet So if you feel yourself disappearing In the early morning sun Just smile and keep on walking With love from Halcyon With love from Halzephron
