Sound of the breeze some morning left
Sound of a thought inside your breath
Wrapped around on your thumb
With it’s knots and it’s bumps
All that you collect in your path
Hold it up close and press record
Little sounds that someone else let go
Why be afraid?
I’ll still be loving you the same
And all the ways you sow noise and note
Whistle of the pot
Creaks of the tip toe
For you it’s never ‘bout how it seems
Shuffle of the leaves
All the sounds you’re weaving
For you it’s never ‘bout how it seems
But what it could be
A forgotten word, a fumbled phrase
And the blush that bloomed across your face
You could tinker and buff
But it’s the way you said it, that I loved
Are we any good without the mistakes?
Ripple of the pond
Tweet of the birdsong
For you it’s never ‘bout how it seems
Shuffle of the leaves
All the sounds you’re weaving
For you it’s never ‘bout how it seems
But what it could be
Sound of a heart against my ear
One of these nights we’ll disappear
We won’t hear it again
So spin those threads before it ends
And could you keep those recollections close, my dear?
