If a man walks with purpose, will you remember him?
By the way his hands sink sideways in the dirt and nested green.
Would you dare to bless his silence as he walks away sincere?
Without a word, unblinking eyelash with a clear, intended gleam.
I don't know what leaves him silent.
I don't know.
I don't know what leaves him silent.
I don't know.
I don't know what leaves him silent in the evening.
If a man walks with purpose
If a man walks with purpose
If a man walks with purpose, will you remember him?

Today it occurred to me that the less I know,
the better off I am.
Closer to the ground and half a length ahead.
I would be much more true to myself and all the people around me here, who just deserve the best from me.
Without saying much, you bring everything into focus inside this sphere.
With everyone around you. they have nothing left to fear.
You keep the moment close and remember every detail inside you
It's so clear, you just deserve the best from me.
You keep the moment close
without knowing what you need.
You keep the moment close
without saying what...
Today it occurred to me that the less I know, the better off I am.
Better off I am right here with you.

I took the road down to the fields I knew so well, thinking that I would be the only one to put my feet down near the rows I tilled alone, wishing that I would be the only one to know
Who let the wind out on the rolling hills I know? Blowing back heaps of soil through rain and toil I'd put my life down for the chance to always know, somehow that I would be the only one

Sunday Shoes

once we held our hands out in front of us
to slow our sisters down
racing off in Sunday shoes
with their umbrellas out
all these pictures sent
a whirlwind that I won't live down
and all our plans have bent
the edges lay buried in the ground
Mary left me thinking of the better days
when we would talk for hours
Mary if you're out there listening
would you sing your stories now?
and all these memories spent
a whirlwind that I won't live down
and all our plans have bent
the edges lay creased on the ground
remember catching Leigh 'cross your shoulder
before she tripped and fell
how many times we broke the rules together
and missed our trouble well
