Gone a Long Time

Song # 495

I’ve been gone a long time
In the cage of my mind (x2)
But I am fully present with you right here and now

Can you hear the crows call
As the night starts to fall? (x2)
They’ve found a red tail hawk sleeping in an old dead tree

What if God was asleep
And we were her dream (x2)
Do you think she’ll still remember us when she wakes up?

What if I was a bird
And you were a tree? (x2)
And I landed in your branches, then flew away

Instrumental break

We’ll be gone a long time
Back to the divine (x2)
So we might as well take the time we have to be alive!
