Hallowed Ground |
I’m walking on hallowed ground |
I’m breathing in ancient air |
I’m hearing a long lost sound from the water down there |
It’s a distant beat pulsing through the heat |
Of the long ago |
I’m walking on hallowed ground |
I’m stepping on sacred bones |
Another new fossil found in the silt and the stones |
Just beyond this hill, in the sultry still |
Of the summer |
I am trying to find something I left behind |
In the long ago |
I’m walking on hallowed ground |
I’m holding my daughter’s hand |
I’m taking a look around where my dad used to stand |
When he’d watch me play on some sun-scorched day |
In the long ago |
I’m following faded trails |
From when I was twelve years old |
I’m fishing out new details in the stories I’ve told |
Like the hearts I broke, like the truth unspoken |
In the summer |
Turn a corner, and then I am right back again |
In the long ago |
See that kid in the breeze? |
I keep telling him, «Easy does it» |
That’s the problem with him |
It was never that simple, really, was it? |
I’m walking on hallowed ground |
I’m checking out every clue |
I’m seeing my life unwound and assembled anew |
Then I hear that line, «Dad, relax, I’m fine» |
And she’s running off |
And she’ll stand here one day, watching me walk away |
In the long ago |
You can run, you can learn, but you’ll always return |
To the long ago |
