Song For August

Lyrics

It feels like you can’t listen Don’t have a thing to say A song that needs rehearsing But all you do is play

You seem to lose the tempo I’ve seen that face before The steps you cannot follow A taste of Mirador A taste of Mirador

I drift above the moment Pretending I can see The pattern and the meaning But none of it is me

I seem to lose the tempo I’ve seen that face before The steps I cannot follow A glimpse of Mirador A glimpse of Mirador

Come down from your high window There’s thunder in the sand The desert hums forgiveness For what it understands

I seem to lose the tempo I’ve seen that face before The steps I cannot follow A bit of Mirador A bit of Mirador

Can you hear me, August Are you too high to feel You hide yourself in silence And call the darkness real

I seem to find the tempo I’ve seen that face before The steps I now can follow The view from Mirador The view from Mirador
