Trembling Blue Stars

November Starlings

The world is beautiful and it’s waiting

We’re hungry for what’s on the table

Under clouds that keep on changing

Hope returns and keeps returning

That trace of sunshine in the winter

That breeze when summer’s at its highest

Part of the ride, of the adventure

You and I will journey together

Sharing whatever

We uncover

The dusk upon The Marsh

The stations of the cross

Rest your head on me and I’ll catch you

Your head on me and I’ll catch you

I’ll catch you

This life that you and I are living

It’s a scrapbook in the making

Flick to the howl of England’s garden

Save a page for November starlings

Pinning down what we are feeling

Is something we’ll never be awake to

Love does the hiding we the seeking

And there will never be a breakthrough

Undefined it will stay

A handful of snowflakes

Trying to tell you how much and how

Beyond squeezing your hand three times in a crowd

Rest your head on me and I’ll catch you

Your head on me and I’ll catch you

I’ll catch you
