Following Sparks

© Lucy Wise 2017

If I lived in a shack on the hill
If I lived in a shack on the hill
Would I keep borrowing days
In love with you still?

Daisies in a vase on the table
Singing in the morning glow
Of yellow fields and faraway snow

Follow, we’re following sparks
That tore away from the dark
Gone, all gone now for good
From the shore where we stood

If I lived where the desert meets the sea
If I lived where the desert meets the sea
Saltwater would renew me

Loneliness lives under the skin
To find you I would sing from within
Sitting where the dawn light begins

Follow, we’re following sparks
That tore away from the dark
Gone, all gone now for good
From the shore where we stood

Follow, we’re following sparks
That tore away from the dark
Far, we’re far down the road
With our whole hearts in tow
