in your pockets

hold me care-tight

hold me spellbound

cold and hand held over new ground

ancient whims have led us here

calling things have chewed our ears

skin's been drawn tight

breaking dawn-light

we're a well

a well from full heights

oh

you're my place to go

it's in your shadows

learning

gathered

in your pockets

children gathered

oh

now you're all i know

if i walk near you i hear voices

swirling truths and fractured choices

rapture in the sycamores

spinning to the seed-strewn floor

wet green shoots still as dead roots

well met

well met

my dear one

oh

you're my place to go

it's in your shadows

learning

gathered

in your pockets

children gathered

oh

now you're all i know

mountains found us

rivers came by

all the green things

all the blue sky

song of sorrow

song of death

song to step out emptiness

sing these songs of ages gone by

song about the future could lie

oh

you're my place to go

it's your shadows

learning

gathered

in your pockets

children gathered

oh

now you're all i know

we're a well

a well from full heights

oh

you're my place to go

it's in your shadows

learning

gathered

in your pockets

children gathered

oh oh

now you're all i know
