A Hymn for a Returning Planet

from Early Magic by Tom Hymn

/

lyrics

I think of money and what I've spent
Sit and think about the government
And the days how they keep passing me by
And what I'm doing with my life

I see the cardinal in the beard of the tree
Backyard, Christmas Eve
And the Holly Hocks how I remembered them not
When I cut em down below the knee

I'm waiting for a coast that's all too clear
Before I start accounting for all my years
Sit with the sea and let it swallow me whole
With the waves that rock and roll

But I keep hearing that it's all we can do
Awaken the spirits in these bodies built for two (plus one)
And I'll keep going till the fireworks are done
But tonight I can't hear past these sounds now
Tonight can't hear past these thoughts now
Tonight, dear soul, please come out

Saturn's returning to it's place in the sky
Where it was July 1985
And Jesus Christ waited till he was 30
So I'll take my time that's fine by me
