THIS CRYSTAL MORNING wake in this crystal morning, walk as one bird is soaring while all the world is snoring, wake in this crystal morning could you and i go on sleeping with all these mad dreams we’re keeping? walk in this crystal morning ran into robbie as he fought with his band he got so sobby, they were kicking him out of his command i asked him would you like to talk to a friend he said i’m busy, got to build a new house out on the sand and jess bought a piece of a jigsaw to cry in his beer and said, sit back and rest and be blessed, til we fly out of here. ran into murder as he walked on the sand he said, i shot the sheep herder, but it didn’t turn out as planned he started choking and said can i come visit you next week? i said joking, is your satellite tracking us as we speak? walk in this crystal morning, walk in this crystal morning walk in this crystal morning, walk as one bird is soaring while all the world is snoring, walk in this crystal morning i’m here with you to be living — that’s all i ask to be given ahh walk in this crystal morning, walk as one bird is soaring i’m grateful you’re still here to greet me as my mind’s picked clear i’m falling apart so completely i can’t find our fear. and jess bought a piece of a jigsaw to cry in his beer and said, sit back and rest and be blessed, til we fly out of here. walk in this crystal morning, walk as one bird is soaring walk in this crystal morning, this crystal morning nate s. 2008 - 04 - 06
