lyrics

the ground is three feet deep dead leaves
you were born here, raised here underneath these trees
i never felt i could sleep outside
its so soft though id stay out all night

we walked until you found a path you recognized
and suddenly im 7 years old in your eyes
i cant stop talking, you call me your lighthouse

constantly rotating beam, constant word stream
from 20 ft behind you

see what gleaming things we are

and in the hush it all stood so clear
the dappled sprawl held our love and our fear
you didn't say a word to me
but i read your message in the decaying leaves

scars and euphoria, elation and pain
the ferns will die graceful when the summer heat wanes
perennial beauty, she said to me softly

what a gleaming ordinary thing you are

you are 70% water, 90% chance
