lyrics
Verse 1
From the tenement stacks, to the white halls of pretense
The forced-perspective black and white
Untitled pieces, stringed lights
I come from the back, with a mind full of color
I swear I’m not the only one
The token folksinger, but…
Chorus 1
Here in your arms, there is solace and respite
Here in your arms, there is good
When you give yourself away to the floodwaters, babe
Only one thing remains to be understood
Verse 2
Atop pediment peaks, lightning strikes Mount Olympus
I watch it from a passing car
I still can feel it from afar
And much the same way, nature works out in circles
The prairie fire and coming storm
I swear that I’ve been here before, but…
Chorus 2
Here in your arms, there is promise of safety
Here in your arms, there is truth
When you give yourself away to the wind and the rain
Only one thing remains as proof
Chorus 3
Here in your arms, I am filled with such wonder
That life could afford something kind
When you give yourself away to the currents of fate
Only one thing remains
