lyrics

the cottonwood limbs are bare.
bare bones in the air.
the whole world is dressed in shades of brown
and i’m thinking hard about skipping town.

the harvest is long since dead,
just empty husks in a garden bed.
trying to find a reason to smile
but i'm telling you now it might be a while.

i’m waiting
for a winter that will never come,
a spring that won’t be sprung,
a summer on the run.

my heart is laid open, bare.
i would have thought this heart could take me anywhere
but now I see it’s all been a lie.
i’ve never been a queen. i’m a pawn just getting by.

i’m waiting
for a winter that will never come,
a spring that won’t be sprung,
a summer on the run.

i’m waiting
for a season to try
to open our eyes,
a reason to do more
than get by.

all the leaves have fallen down,
and i'm thinking hard about skipping town.

Just discovered these guys at a live show (Christmas concert, which I normally avoid). Blown away. Heart and energy. Not sweet, not preachy. Brought interesting people together on stage and in audience. REALLY cool. Mitchell Wade

It's like seasoning to food...it flavors the spiritual and blesses the walk I have with Jesus Christ. My God, and Savior. How wonderful He is and how He who made the universe, the beauty of the earth, cares for us and loves us... arterry
