The Season Of Mercy Lyrics

Traveling north
Tall straight pines
Ghost white birch
On the Hannover Line

Red tile roofs
A lone blue kite
It's barely tethered
In the silver light

It's the time of memory
The season of mercy
Following out the thread
Humming the tune in my head
Just out of reach
Always out of reach

Entering radio silence
In a train car of sound
Two dark eyed children
Look up and then down

You buy a strong coffee
I consider the miles
Will I be remembered
As the woman who smiled

It's the time of memory
The season of mercy
Following out the thread
Humming the tune in my head Just out of reach
Always out of reach

How much did I miss or forget to remember
Here at the edge of November
With all we've gained and lost
Do I love my life enough to brave it
Do I love my life enough to save it
Where does this train stop

A red tail hawk
Makes a perfect arc
A silent owl
Glides in the dark

The car fills with light
That was all that it took
It was already there
Before I thought to look

It's the time of memory
The season of mercy
Following out the thread
Humming the tune in my head
Just out of reach
Always out of reach
Always out of reach
