lyrics

All these stories that we tell, we know them well
Will be dispelled when the wind comes, to blow my breath away

Figures and configurations, colors, shapes, and constellations
Will dissolve, like they were never there at all

Calms of Capricorn and Cancer, westerlies and levanters laden with dust
Will whisk away these words

When the wind comes through the grass, well I’m not the one to say good bye to
When the wind comes through the grass, well I’m not the one to say good bye to

All this lattice mesh and lace, netting warp and weave
Will unravel like penelope’s shroud

Semiotics codes and signs, rivers, veins, and criss-crossed lines
Will fade away, into the space behind our minds

Give me love and give me room, I’ll take a mare’s nest as my groom
There’s only one to whom I answer, yes you, the levanter

When the wind comes, through the grass well I’m not the one to say goodbye to
When the wind comes, through the grass, well I’m not the one to say goodbye to
