Lyrics: The light comes in and settles low It finds the places that I know It rests on wood, it warms the chair It moves as slow as I can bear My hands remain where they have been They hold the shape of where I’ve been The lines are soft, the skin is thin But something quiet stays within I let the hours pass me by I do not ask them where or why They move like air across a room A gentle and familiar tune The sounds arrive, then fall away They do not always choose to stay I hear them less, but feel them more Like waves that fade along the shore The names I knew don’t always come They rest somewhere I can’t become But in their place there is no fear Just something warm and always near The past is not a thing I hold It folds itself in quiet gold It lives in light, not memory In how the day still touches me I let the hours pass me by No need to keep, no need to try The world remains, calm and the same Even when I lose its name The light comes in, it always will It finds me quiet, finds me still And when I fade, it will remain Untouched by time, untouched by name
