Rise And Shine

(album: Jazzhound - 2020)

When I fell out alone from a dream
I gripped my cloud for a reckoning
Once you claimed me oh so desperately
Now between us are oceans of streets
All I know is
Your not here but I'm fine

All false fronts deflect and suspend
That's why I keep lying to me again and again
Climbing every highest intention
Turn back and laugh at all interventions
All I know is

If you had it your way I'd stay but don't hold your breath
It's the blind leading blind
Oh yeah you're so innocent?
Rise and shine
Bye bye cloud nine

In a year share a new disposition
Here and there and conditioned
If we had it my way you'd have stayed
Fickle ain't brave
Just the blind leading blind
I know I'm no innocent all right
So rise and shine
Bye bye to cloud 9

When I cry out alone in the night
I grip your side and hope you're all right
Cause all I know is you
