Closing Day

from Put Out The Stars by Rachel Efron

/

lyrics

Day becomes the evening
Sea becomes the sand
I become this letter in your hand
Sent without a message
Signed a different name
Everything recedes to where it came

I could hold my breath another day
I could hold the space to love you anyway
Not ever of you, no longer with you
Still

Wait another moment
Wait another year
Hide your tired mind from what you hear
You, the wisest teacher
You, the truest friend
Further from your god than from our end

I could hold my breath another day
I could hold the space to love you anyway
Fix your broken heart with balls of clay
Not ever of you, no longer with you
Still here, now
Yours until the closing day
