lyrics

I show you a picture
She walks by the lake
through a cloud of cottonwood as I come slow awake
I come slow awake
She turns through all dimensions,
time a carousel
You all know the story,
I don't even have to tell
I do not have to tell you

Loving a woman
too good for me

Beneath the rolling surface of mercurial light
she holds her breath a moment,
and rises to the night
She rises
Naked on the stone she watches the thunderhead
I'll show you a picture
but I won't tell you what she said
I will not tell you

Loving a woman
too good for me

Some love goes to church
Some love prays to power
Some love bows to nothing
except the final hour
Except maybe the final hour
I show you a picture
She walks by the lake
through a cloud of cottonwood as I come slow awake
I come slow awake

Loving a woman
too good for me
much too good for me
