Not Ready To Yet
Lyrics & Music by Jeff Walker

I cross the river that splits this town
Twilight falls with the snow
Memories come with an ache at my age
Makes it hard to let go

The water below barely flows in its banks
The winter makes everything slow
The snow draws a veil over glimmering lights
Like secrets we’re not meant to know

The rises and falls of the ridge line 
Our story in silhouette
I’ll drop some flowers off of this bridge
But I think I’m not ready to yet 
I’m not ready to yet

Our hearts connected later in life 
Such wild unexpected desire
But the petals are red on a Valentine’s rose
To remind us love is a fire

I re-read the note that shattered my heart
In places the ink was all blurred
Where somebody’s tears fell onto the page
Salt in the wounds between words

The rises and falls of the ridge line 
Our story in silhouette
I’ll drop some flowers off of this bridge
But I guess I’m not ready to yet 

Without you here, there’s a dark empty space
Sometimes it’s like there’s a ghost in your place
Seems I don’t know how to forget

The rises and falls of the ridge line
Our story in silhouette
I’ll drop some flowers off of this bridge
But I think I’m not ready to yet 
No, I'm not ready to yet

Breath, Body
