From the recording Miles From Nowhere
Lyrics
The moon rises like a ripe peach
I'd like to taste it, but it's out of my reach
I shoot for the stars, but I mean no harm
I just want to be where they are
The air is heavy like a sigh
And it grows stronger the faster I drive
I stick my hand out and try to catch it
But like anything else, it just passes
And the beauty of the evening makes me think of you
’Cause summer evenings make the winter worth living through
I can't help wondering where you are
So many nights I have wished on these stars
Connected them like lines between dots
I have sketched out your face with my thoughts
And the beauty of the evening makes me think of you
’Cause summer evenings make the winter worth living through
And I trust the universe takes care of me
But sometimes my trust is just so hard to believe
I don't want to be where I'm leaving
I don't want to be where I am going, either
Right now I just feel kind of open
Soaking up the present moment
I trust that the universe takes care of me
But sometimes my trust is just so hard to believe
The moon rises like a ripe peach
I'd like to taste it, but it's out of my reach
I shoot for the stars - I mean no harm
I just want to be where they are
I just want to be where they are
I just want to be where you are
