(专辑: The Practice Of Love - 2019)

didn't think about it at the

was trying to write to Georgia O'Keeffe Georgia, Georgia, Georgia, Georgia, Georgia Like Joni Mitchell writes to Amelia Earhart When she is driving, driving, driving in the
desert As if a
song can communicate With the

mean, isn't that what it's for? 1976, 1980 1986, 1999 Awaken the
dead I
was but wasn't quite writing "I spotted six red cannas" As I
was driving towards Ghost Ranch In the
north of New Mexico New, New, New, New, New, New, New Mexico New, New, New, New, New, New, New Mexico But I
was seeing them Red cannas in the
sky Red cannas in the
sky As they were tearing up the
heavens Opening the
zipper To let loose all kinds of spirits, of spirits, of spirits 1943 And you know, there used to be an ocean here 1937, 1924 We used to be all under water 1821, 1563 We used to be all under water Clovis points We used to be all under water The
Niobraran Sea We used to be all under water The
ocean We used to be all under water The
ocean We used to be all under water The
ocean, in the
ocean We used to be all under water The
ocean, the
ocean We used to be all under water
