Get To Montana

Stayed too long in Nashville drew my line in the hills
I waited for you in the Carolinas the mountains movin' still
you said you'll be waiting I gotta keep myself awake
keep my eyes on the open stretch and the miles that I make
I gotta get to Montana before the morning
slip through the rising sun in all it's glory
we're all living downstream from the fallen heartland
we're all eating corn from somebody else's hand
fill every inch of green 'til the gray is all we have
I Slept all night in a cafe round Cedar Bend
burned my words in the ashtray when I couldn't find a friend
made my way to Flagstaff through the Painted Desert sun
I was high on diesel and caffeine fumes the more I tried to run
I gotta get to Montana before the morning
slip through the rising sun in all it's glory
we're all living downstream from the fallen heartland
we're all eating corn from somebody else's hand
fill every inch of green 'til the gray is all we have
the fossils and the blueprints of those who were here before
decorum for our living rooms the tiles on our bathroom floors
I pressed tight to the thunder cobalt iron sky
danced barefoot with the open rain
'till the morning dried her eyes
I tried to sort the mystery in the blood of the Bozeman Trail
the path's of our history have paved life as frail
we're all living downstream from the fallen heartland
we're all eating corn from somebody else's hand
fill every inch of green with the seeds in your hands
I gotta get to Montana before the morning
slip through the rising sun in all it's glory.

It's reaching that time of year again
When the dark outweighs the light
I stand between these crooked hills
Only redwoods in my sight
And I am jealous of the patient way the leaves
Wait to fall all autumn long
Before they gracefully surrender and release
Let go become what they are
What they are
The trees remind me I am craving of the sun
To bend this shivering I live
And in the midst of all this begging I have done
I seed potential and I give
Something else
Something else is waiting
Something else is waiting
Something else is waiting
For you
And I have longed for this
For always
In the face of it
I choose something else
It's reaching that time of year again
I see reflections in the ice
The day is breaking on mount washington
The river water soon will rise
Amidst the wind I feel alert and still alive
It touches hope beneath my skin
Facing up against this shortening of breath
Hungry waiting to begin
Something else is waiting
Something else is waiting
Something else is waiting
For you

Can you come back from Arizona?
I need you here with me
I haven't seen you in a lifetime
You've been waiting to be seen
While the moon is moving all around us
You will complement it's pull
Two flowers in the desert
Springing forth and blooming full
I will love you like you love me
And I will stand before your eyes
I will listen to your breathing
To anticipate it's rise
Sometimes you escalate my breathing
You leave your handprints on my walls
Stay unhurried to be waiting
Intoxicating as you are
Two flowers in the desert
Springing forth and blooming full
I will love you like you love me
And I will stand before your eyes
I will listen to your breathing
To anticipate it's rise
Something happens when you're near me
The ecstacy of feeling whole
I will love you like you love me
And I will stand before your eyes
I will listen to your breathing
To anticipate it's rise
