Calling

When the lights are low
and the evening's falling
you hear them come & go
there's someone calling
all that you knew before
hits you like a sudden blow

If reason is in our head
let it go
whisper more than can be said
keep it so
words unsaid are softly said
let it go
let it go

In the light we're calling
something like the sense of falling
where the day is going
deep within the heart
a sense of growing

We whisper more than can be said
beyond the wisdom of the head
tracks where loneliness has led
let it go
let it go
let it go

Everything is glowing
in the night the water's flowing
beyond the shade a voice is calling
there's still that simple sense of falling

If reason is in our head
let it go
whisper more than can be said
something low
a face whose want is never fed
let it go let it go let it go let it go etc.

Work emanates from a wooden shed in mid-Wales, serenaded by owls & robin-song.
