shadowfeet

Walking, stumbling
On these shadowfeet
Toward home, a land that I've never seen

I am changing
Less and less asleep
Made of different stuff than when I began

And I have sensed it all along
Fast approaching is the day

[Chorus]
When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in you, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

There's distraction
Buzzing in my head
Saying in the shadows it's easier to stay

But I've heard rumours
Of true reality
Whispers of a well-lit way

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in you, still standin'
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

Albertine arrived this past Sunday. Brooke's been on repeat ever since. I did not realise how much she means to me, how far-reaching her impact was in my life, until we held the small package, reverently, at her arrival. Olivia did the honors and we stood in silence as she pulled the bubble wrap from the slim jewel case, nodded in agreement when she motioned to the stereo.

The first hushed steps of "shadowfeet" brought me to tears. You know there is something bigger, something better here that we can ever fathom.
