kentucky - cricket blue lyrics

here is how it comes to me:
dropping gr-ss into your pail
and lying deep in churchyard sleep
still whispering our tales

and you became a part of mine
the day that death lay down at my door
and every light burned twice as bright
to ease around your form

then suddenly, the truth becomes there’s time
my mother comes and says there’s wine to cover me
lost, like a boy with his lord bound around him with cords
on the night that we fell into tune

how well she knows the blood that pours is good
born into wars she never would’ve chose
(shows that the staff and the rod of the terror of god
have finally gotten to you.)
let all that is old be made new

then, through the dust of winters long
we kept each other’s fingers strong
despite what was proved, we smiled, unmoved
like rocks under the rain
boulders on the lawn

our fathers said that love needs to be sure
took to our knees to be the pure among the dead
(every last inch, every page, of the cage that they gave you
burns in you like love that is true.)
let all that is old be made new

oh! and then you said that you had got a letter from your man
like the sky had broken open
oh! and then you said that we are blown along by his great plan
like the sand breathed into motion
oh! you prayed (though you can’t save me) i might someday understand
you bucked like io by the ocean
stuck somewhere between ohio and the blue of dixieland
you lost your mind but found your hope
and then i left you to your sickness, white as stone inside his hand

i see it all; it comes to me, and i bow:
how melody is married now, and tall
nine years since love, when the heat glowed all over our feet
the fire, the howl let loose
let all that is old be made new
