Where have I been?

where have i been with my soul
where horizons are broken by empty silos and we're slipping into a city of grain where no-one can leave once it's spoken your name
where have a been with my soul
riding the sun on its daily chore swimming along in the high prairie grass windmill arms we're on our backs
where have i been with my soul
the slow cremation of all that we know the howl is a sound like wind through the barn the swirling cyclone inside of my heart
where have i been with my soul
i promised you something i never controlled all the ridiculed lovers lay down in the ditch where heaven and hell can coexist
where have i been with my soul
that wondering warehouse where i made my home the bats swarmed above while i floated to sleep there was no-one to save me from anything
where have i been with my soul
ive mined the darkness looking for gold and years have gone by like pigeons in flight and all that I've done is lost my sight
tell me where have i been with my soul

cheek to cheek honey feet to feet
in a circular pattern
come with me baby following we can take turn as the leader
all this time we have been circling each other
step by step day by day closer to the other
i am held i am safe always in an orbit
bodies close or far away dancing with my other
cheek to cheek honey feet to feet
in a circular pattern
come with me baby we are free in the faith of love enduring

we went walking and came upon a pond it was frozen across but not through i slid my foot out and then my whole leg out until my body fell through insulated coat with a blanket you wrapped me up in a cocoon sweet pea soup and hot pepper stew I'm warming up to you
dandelion persimmon wine i'm spending my time with you
sweet potato on toasted sourdough i'm spending my hours with you
it's winter outside and we're under the pine our breaths in the ghostly embrace you're my present and i'll be contented to open you day after day from an old camper to simmering embers you kissed me from my forehead to my toes you're my baby my pocket hankie the one that i pull to my nose
dandelion persimmon wine i'm spending my time with you
sweet potato on toasted sourdough i'm spending my hours with you
honey gravy on cornbread cake i'm spending my days with you
dandelion persimmon wine i'm spending my time with you
