From the recording Long Drive Home Under An Autumn Eclipse
written enroute to my 2nd brain surgery
Lyrics
Just a touch of sorrow sweeps across the front seat
No one has a single word to say
Some soft breeze of promise, sweeps across the back seat
We're caught between the black of night and the light of day
I can see the sun a shining
But the moon is creeping by
I can hear my shadow screaming:
Lord, I don't let me die
There's a dawn after each midnight
There's a spring after each fall
Just let me sleep through this eclipse
I'll be waiting for my wakeup call
This highway's got no borders; this highway's got no fences
This highway's got no road signs, and no dead ends
This highway takes no prisoners, this highway starts in heaven
This highway goes through hell then comes back to life again
This highway that we're traveling, takes us all to places
We must admit we know nothing of
This highway that we're traveling, this highway it's got three lanes
We keep moving between them, faith, hope, and love
There's a dawn after each midnight
There's a spring after each fall
Just let me sleep through this eclipse
I'll be waiting for my wakeup call
