lyrics

I knocked on the lion's mouth, and through the valley it echoes
In that desert desolation, the coffee lasted just until this moment
And thank God.

Under the stoic Golden Gate, you met my arrival
Standing in the sunlight, your skin was a stained glass window
To your soul.

Today this year, the summer recovery near

You were so whole when I was all strain out
Hung from the clothesline.

You were so strong, when I was all gone
Hung from the clothesline.

You rolled up your sleeves and asked for the bags I've been carrying.
i said " Thanks for your kindness, but they've kinda become a part of me,
And I've got 'em"

Under the goose neck's embrace, you asked what brings me so far away from home
I said "I've been collecting names, and tracing them from headstones".
