lyrics

It’s hard to say if I’ll ever gain capacity for joy again because where I’m broken is so very broken
And it’s hard to say if I’ll ever play in front of gathered hearts again
Unless they’re open – are you open?
It’s important to me that we hold to this memory

Have you seen how love can bring a joy beyond imagining?
It will lift you – it uplifts you
Have you seen how love can be the source of your vitality?
Until it leaves you – and it might leave you
That’s what I need you to see the heart of this memory

Count your blessings and count your woes, time isn’t ours you know
The wheel is spinning and it’s going to stop – you’ll either be lucky or lost

Look at me can you see I’m a witness of catastrophe, a kind of nightmare
Look at me and you will see the lines drawn through the heart of me
That were not there when we last shared
No I don’t care to see that part of the memory

Count your blessings and count your woes, time isn’t ours you know
The wheel is spinning and it’s going to stop – you’ll either be lucky or lost

Over and over and over again, we go through the motions
Getting closer and closer and closer I think to the life that we want to live
So I will give you a seed to plant the memory

Deep down in the soil, deep down in the hole – see how the garden grows
Count your blessings and count your woes, time isn’t ours you know
The wheel is spinning and it’s going to stop – you’ll either be lucky or lost
