about

A track about vision, with a shout to Lancaster, PA.

lyrics

I was walking down Prince Street
In this city of red & grey
When your call came
You spoke of a cost that can’t be paid
With any currency the mint had made
As the snow blew under the street lights

You always said that the small things
They seem to be the only way

When your call came, did you have the
Presence of mind, presence of mind
Even if it meant you had to bleed
Hands & feet that would
Carry their weight, carry their weight
A hand held out in need

I was walking up Prince Street
Spring in this city of green & white
When you came by
You were dreaming in languages undefined
Love profound that wrapped my mind
Like a poet who’s found his voice

Dreaming in languages undefined
Dreaming in languages undefined

I was walking down Prince Street
In this city of red & grey
When your call came
