Shallow Breath Lyrics

 

(Top)

it doesn’t matter where you come from

it doesn’t matter where you’ve been

the time is now to uncover

the love from within

the turning pages

once you read yourself

you will know where to begin

uncover me

it doesn’t matter where you’re going

it doesn’t matter how far you see

once you’re on the road

you get there eventually

the turning pages

between the lines

we read discover uncovering

uncover me

why ponder the unseen

in all its mysteries

when one can simply

show your love

show your love

uncovering

it doesn’t matter who what where from

it doesn’t matter one bit you see

once you read yourself you can begin to free

the turning the learning

has brought us here to uncover

the love from within

(Top)

I don’t understand perhaps I’m not intended to

waking up sometimes is so hard to do

so much easier to remain asleep

to create the dreams and worlds we wish to keep

but we let them go

we finally let it go

it’s the final cut

we finally let it go

it’s the final cut

I can’t explain this push and pull between us

a little tug of love and war

unconscious cravings we both starred as

Juliet and Romeo

romantic roles we shall never forget

we finally let them go

it’s the final cut

we finally let it go

it’s the final cut

guided by the mystery that brought us together

as unconscious becomes conscious

we find the mystery is so much greater than we

ever imagined it could be

and the final cut is only the beginning

we finally let it go to the final cut

as hard as this may seem

I know it’s not part of a dream

I know I won’t escape these feelings

the pain will not remain deep within me

and there’s nothing else I need to know

we finally let it show

yeah we finally let it go

we finally let it go

it’s the final cut

we finally let it go

it’s the final cut

(Top)

I recognize your eyes though your face is new

a thousand years have gone by

and your still so beautiful

the past of our knowing has faded through

yet the love has remained that I see in you

in the name of

love

in the name of the nameless of the one that’s true

in this stateless state I have found you

I have strived to be resign to thee

all that I am I now surrender

in the name of

love

I do recognize that we have shared our love

from another time in the circle of

we are here again to face it

to recognize and embrace it

we are here and we are calling in the name of

love

(Top)

I feel as if I’m dying with nothing to say

there’s nothing I can think of

and nothing in the way

nothing to count on

nothing I pray for myself

but I do pray for you

there’s just nothing I seem to be

could it be that nothing has finally come to me

can’t take nothing away from me

can’t take nothing away from me

bury my insistence

bury my persistence

cause in this nothing I face there is no resistance

please pardon me as I proceed

from the left and the righteous point of view

to the nothing I’ve become accustomed to

there’s just nothing I seem to be

could it be that nothing has finally come to me

can’t take nothing away from me

can’t take nothing away from me

oh when the waves attempt to pull me out to sea

oh in my darkest hour

I know that nothing’s there to comfort me

nothing surrounds me

nothing will always be

there’s nothing I know and nothing I’ve seen

there’s nothing lost

even if nothing just means nothing

there’s nothing I am and nothing I need

but as you know

nothing indeed is truly something

there’s just nothing I seem to be

could it be that nothing has finally come to me

can’t take nothing away from me

can’t take nothing away from me

Simple Love

simple me

so simply to see

Love so simple

let it be

come to me

take of me

Cannot hold what is not mine

Love so bold so undefined

formless are the raging seas

and wind that blows the life i breathe

win or lose doesn’t matter here

just as long the truth is clear

my heart is willing to receive

for the day she comes to me

Simple Love

simple me

so simply to see

Love so simple

let it be

come to me

take of me

The mirror shines an empty light

its source pervades both day and night

my mind is willing to believe

there’s more to life than what we see

actions speak so loud and clear

warm the cold and heal the fear

my heart is ready to receive

the Love she comes to me

Simple Love

simple me

so simply to see

Love so simple

let it be

come to me

take of me

Riding on the coattails of his fame and fortune

he looks out in the distance

as he stares at the ocean

and he breathes a shallow breath

All the years he had travelled

fighting a constant battle

climbing the uphill road

had taken its toll

had worn on his soul

there was a sigh as he breathed a shallow breath

how long

Eyes set a gaze on just one stone

saw his heart and his love

out there in the winter cold

oh but that was many years ago

Things are so much better now he heard himself say

this time alone had made him strong some way

and he breathed a shallow breath

Well all things in life have their price to pay

he said long ago he’s gonna do it this way

and that was many years ago

how long

Graced by life and the next day it’s gone

the old man goes sleeping and a new baby’s
born

each of us so different

each of us the same

live your own life there is no one to blame

cursed or blessed by the human condition

how do you see what is your position

how long

Riding on his coattails of fame and fortune

he sees it’s worth nothing but a drop in the
ocean

and the pressure’s gone

and he breathes a shallow breath

he breathes a shallow breath

calling me from my youth today

I swear it was her voice to come her way

expressionless faces

from a pain that leaves no traces

the truth seems to hide somewhere inside

wishing me

she’s wishing me

calling her spirit to come join with me

to withhold is not my destiny

waking and wanting to feel her existence

I lay aside all resistance

to wish to be

she’s wishing me

calling a whisper comes from the mountain

wishing hoping to drink from the fountain

to lay aside the truth to be strong

calling listen oh hallowed canyon

wishing remember camp near the ocean

to lay beside innocence gone

wishing me

she’s wishing me

coming and going I’ve left it all behind

to lead a life I know is mine

laying at night I see grand designs

of the wishes now left behind

wishing me

wishing me

calling a whisper comes from the mountain

wishing hoping to drink from the fountain

to lay aside the truth to be strong

calling listen oh hallowed canyon

wishing remember camp near the ocean

to lay beside innocence gone

wishing me

wishing me

I can’t let you in if I won’t let me out

so safe I feel beneath these covers

there is no need to bout

in time there will be love again

so safe and so secure within these walls so sure

for so long I’ve been running

I’ve been hiding behind the door

in time there would be love again

in time there could be love again

in time there will be love again

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the time is past is future

and we are here

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the timeless seed unspoken is the love

love she knocked me out

we would scream and shout

world welled up with anger

you know I’ll just sit this one out

in time there would be love again

holding on so dear what is there to fear

I am not my past nor future

what is now is real

the time is here for love again

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the time is past is future

and we are here

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the timeless seed is here

here today

not yesterday or tomorrow

the time is here for love again

life lived through open doors

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the time is past, is future and we are here

the timeless seed yields timeless love

the timeless seed unspoken is the love

there’s a blue light over me and the blue night

there’s a blue light over me

blue serenity

there’s nothing sad about blue to me

there’s a quiet blue sky

it’s a quiet blue high and the blue night

yeah makes me feel alright

blue serenity

there’s nothing sad about blue to me

there’s a blue light over me and the blue
night

there’s a blue light over me

blue serenity

there’s nothing sad about blue to me

there’s a blue eyed baby wanting red hot maybe

and the purple when we meet in the blue night

blue serenity

there’s nothing sad about blue to me

i feel empty with nothing inside of me

i’ve been clearing the past fallen debris

in this emptiness there’s a bit of bliss

a ripe strawberry

a perfect kiss

in this emptiness there’s a bit of fear

surroundings unfamiliar

as if from outer space i’ve just been dropped here

dear emptiness i welcome you now

i knew we’d meet someday somehow

nothing can break this wild stallion

running through the river canyon

dear emptiness i welcome you now

in this emptiness i welcome you

i feel empty with nothing to hide from me

i’ve been cheering the celebration side of me

with no reservation runs the raging river

and these flowers and trees neither toil or spin

no crutches to cling to no crutches to keep me

from running as a free wild stallion

running through the red heart canyon

dear emptiness i welcome you now

i knew we’d meet someday somehow

nothing can break this wild stallion

running through the river canyon

dear emptiness i welcome you now

in this emptiness I welcome you

wake up the sun is risen

i walk through these streets to no destination

with an empty face and i’m singing

way down at my feet a pigeon looks way up at me

and begins to speak, and it says

in your emptiness i can hear your true voice

in your emptiness i hear your true voice

dear emptiness i welcome you now

i knew we’d meet someday somehow

nothing can break this wild stallion

running through the river canyon
