about

This song comes from "The Better Angels of Our Nature". Some could say it is the single.

lyrics

her eyes they beckon me
to the cabin by the sea
we lay there for a while
blessed by her smile
sun backed in the sand
we clasp each others hand
staring to the sun
nowhere left to run

i am only half myself
the other half belongs to you
people always stumble and fall
but in the end what it true

father and the son
united into one
raise them up real strong
let your will be done
teach them right from wrong
before the kingdom comes
your burdens lay at rest
as your heart beats in your chest

i am only half myself
the other half belongs to you
people always stumble and fall
but in the end what it true
