Idlewild – Once In Your Life

To come apart in mountain tops

is to come apart in rain

Every note creates a picture of

a road worn over again

You speak only in memories

but what memories dictate

is if you don’t know what you want

then what you want won’t wait

And he sparks a ten center

as an epilogue waits

it’s a centre of attention

and it’s a road we won’t leave behind

So far away

and I’m free from disguise

but I can see the devil hiding

in the circles around your eyes

What do I signify when

lifetime’s away

I can see that look in northern faces

and looks are made from far off places

And maybe the life waits over the hill

over the hill while I wait
