lyrics

I thought I was a thistle seed blowin'
Across the vast & deep, but it seems I was wrong
Yet you watch me as though you'd always known
As though you'd seen me dancin' in your visions, mama

When you bring the knife to the beast of my soul
It bellows the hearth and keeps us warm
A drifter fallen to the winter's cold
I'm helplessly living without secrets

No more doubt in my mind
You're a gem, a real find
Through the rough edges of time
We wind up here

So this drifter hangs on the wall by a wire
A photograph now of a lost shoreline
Bare and beaten as the crucifix
All jangled and spread across the watery depths

Yet wrecked and revived on the living room floor
With castaway dreams that aren't dark anymore
They play out like movies or novels or songs
About drifting so far that I have no more doubt

Together through whatever
'Til death or bust
If the world goes to hell
In this love I trust
To drift like a thistle seed
From here to the sun
Burn out forever
And return to stardust clouds in my mind
