lyrics

SUNDAY PRAYER, xxviii


Time & time again,
when we were little dad would beam,
you will grow up to do great things.
You'll make me proud. I have this feeling.
Were his lucky stars not answering,
when he knocked them up with wishing?
They went black eons ago.
Star in the East, I'm on my own, I am, I am.


Time & time again,
sometimes I find these notes she wrote me,
hid in strange and stranger nooks,
places you'd never think to look.
Except me now two years later,
just when I'd thought I'd near forgot her,
I find this note behind the mirror
that reads, "look no further, I am here." I am, I am, I am.


But you're a birthday,
deep with the dayshine.
Dusk to a moonbreak,
the dust of keepsakes.


Time & time again, I am, I am.
