Good Sons And Daughters lyrics

(B. Walkenhorst)
Looking out my window, the eclipse has begun
I grab your hand, we run outside and dance in the dimming sun
Light through the leaves casts a zillion crescents on the ground
And you say hold me tight (Alright!)
Peeking through a pinhole, the eclipse has begun
The shadow tag of sun and moon washes over us and everyone
Lives that overlap without ever seeing that it`s so
And you say hold me close
Don`t let me go
High noon and midnight we`re standing in the path
Where shadows beget shadows and every step has an aftermath
Leaving tiptoe ripples of a stepping stone
Nobody walks alone
Things are set in motion, sounds clash and harmonize
And the fire of the moment becomes the light in my baby`s eyes
We plant by the moon, by chance and by design
And I know this is mine
This is mine all the time
There`s a butterfly in China and a Kansas thunderstorm
A man laying down a dollar and a young girl`s clothes being torn
Actions and reactions, echoes only dogs can hear
And I say what`s that sound?
Spinning me round and around and round
And I`m looking at the sky, I see the eclipse at an end
I am but an arm`s length from my lover and my friend
And from every other soul that I may know or never will
Under the shining sun
Life goes on and on
