Lyrics Headwaters II - Arbouretum

Headwaters II

Headed for gone away days, to where they begin
From where it springs
from far off
Unwinding spools of
A ribbon laid out
Growing as it falls
I’ve been downstream for as long as I can recall
The days go by
Rolling and drifting away
creek up above
And I spend all the time
Watching rising tides, and
Forward or behind
Where then would you proffer the line?
Coursing in my mind
The down
Sun on bare stone to the whistling winds home I’ll return
Before the song ends
And the firelit dancers are frozen
The rivers borne high where the sky
As time unrolls
Down the bordered sides and under the treeline
