Liquid Days

Lyrics

Sunlight has not found us Over forty days or more While the flood outside Provides no guide To bring this little boat ashore Where we are this hour Is not where we will be When these liquid days are done In a turn of light Like sun on subtle rose We will see how far we've come I held my breath to bursting 'Til I found myself inhaled Three days and nights To waive my rights In the belly of a diving whale Where we are this hour Is not where we will be When these liquid days are done In a turn of light Like sun on subtle rose We will see what we've become See it rising from the sea I see something Something that I might have missed There's a shadow of a cloud now A cloud no bigger than a big man's fist There's a shadow of a cloud now A cloud no bigger than a big man's fist What we know this hour Is not what we will know When these liquid days are done In a turn of light Like sun on subtle rose We will see what's just begun Rivers, no uprising And the seas will cease to rage When the mourning's past Thank God at last He's gonna come And wipe these tears away Rivers, no uprising And the seas will cease to rage When the mourning's past Thank God at last He's gonna come And wipe these tears away...
