From the recording State of the Heart
Lyrics
I am staring out into the world
And if my eyes do not deceive
I have found you without me
And now I see you
Time and time and time again
No I never what this to end
And I can stop pretending
Cuz you are real to me
My love
So where do we go from here?
To the eastern hemisphere
Where the shadows rise and fall
And we fall for love
Like an ancient china cup
I will not remain all broken up
You hold me like a treasure
Like I will always be enough
This was meant to be a protest song
But the politics were wrong
Not a time to be sublime
And I can only sing these love songs
Since I met you
This is where we start
It’s the state of the heart
Everytime I go to speak
I only want to kiss your cheek
To have us something we can keep
Make it beautiful
So we should see things from afar
And understand just who we are
From the highest mountain top
You are beautiful to me
This was meant to be a protest song
But the politics were wrong
Not a time to be sublime
And I can only sing these love songs
Since I met you
This is where we start
It’s the state of the heart
Not a time to be sublime
Let’s leave the politics behind
We don’t have to tow the party line
Cuz I hear a calling, from the end of time
