River of Time

River of Thyme

The Words · Lyrics

Morning opens in a whisper Oxford breathing through ancient stone Knowing - calling in my chest A new plan begins to rise Two Coffees waiting on the other side Upon the river of time Deeper knowing says… arrive Stepping onto Folly bridge Every footstep feels like me Softer… wider… undefined Leaving plans far behind Bridge opens a portal of time A passage drawn Between versions I have become And who I shapeshifter into by the river of time Living from quiet knowing within River of time moving my life Carrying stories into sea All the names we both held Drifting into distant sea Why this step is in my feet The mystery is yet to be revealed I just know what feels right Follow the compass inside Let my steps reveal the view Let the view reveal my steps There’s a guide I feel A Blue diamond navigator within Feet on stones Heart in sky Breathing old stories By the river of time People moving Life in flow No one sees the shift I know Soft reveal Just the bridge… and where we begin 2 Coffees in paper boats Our story unfolds Bridge behind me Still within me We walk forward with a silent breeze Every step a doorway World-bridgers alive Two coffees Tolkien’s bench parked by a River of Time Planting yew trees for all time Laurel calls in winds of time With gratitude we come … into our new life World bridgers creating a new time line World building through sound World building… Through Sound…. Meet you on the other side….
Stay in the wave
