lyrics

Harvest is my favourite time
Hold my hand and pour the wine
Walk the garden rows
Point out the seeds that we’ll be saving

Look at all the things we grew
It’s almost as if we were meant to,
I cannot pretend
That this is less than perfect for me

Sunlight settles on our path
I feel safe and so I ask you
About all the things you see
Deep inside your secret dreaming

My dreams are unsettling
I dream of people I love dying
As if to prepare me
For the inevitable -
Of everything shifting

So I sit with my dreams
And every day I am living
Perfectly aware
Harvest cannot last forever

And I cannot not pretend
That this is less than perfect for me.

Would it be enough
If we only had the time we’ve had?
Would it be enough?
