Timeburn

I take a nap in my car
Down at Spratt Park
I'm supposed to be working my job
But I'm dreaming of the summer
You spend a season with a person
You start to think of them in the morning
It feels so good to be occupied
So focused on a feeling

I want to know
What you've been thinking
Is this important?
Is it still worth it?
Because i'm so sure
How i'd answer
If you asked me
T​​he same question

The slow rhythm of the day
The recursive locomotion
Gives structure to the waiting
Soft shape to all the distance
You have to hang on to the moment
And a semblance of perspective
Resist the urge to quantify
The time spent
The investment

I’ve been told that the ship of the tide
was at back when the whip, ionized
so give it all you’ve got
& let em' shine
mmhm

I’m talking ‘bout the f - a - m - i - l - y
family
When you’re out lost sailing choppy seas 

I'm talking 'bout the
f a m & i l y
Lord, keep em all by my side

So, what’s it gonna be?
Tell me 
Tell me
Please, please
Yeah, I wanna know

And ask them to remind you of the
F - a - m - i - l - y

F - a - m - & i - l - y
Lord, keep em all by my side 

F - a - m - i - l - y

I'm talking 'bout the
F - a - m - & i - l - y
Talking 'bout
F - a - m & i - l - y

Oh, keep to my side

Nature's water pouring down on me,
Come back down & rinse my body clean

For, water
Nature's water

Let me float with you on down the stream
Water changing me,

For, water
Water,
Nature's water
mmhm

Sweet water.
