Winter Grass (2006)

“I Don’t Aim”

 

Don’t let it be someone you know
Take care to watch where my friends go
This is no life on a mountain top
There’s a wind that will never stop
Take care to watch where your friends go.

Don’t let the blues get out of hand
We travel on because we can
This isn’t life on a TV show
There’s a part we will never know
We get back up because we can.

     Because I don’t aim to be letting go
     I don’t aim to be letting go
     I will watch and fend though I’ve been afraid
     I will mind your step though I’ve never passed this way
     Cause I don’t aim to be letting go.

Don’t let them get away with it
We only come around bit by bit
Is there no dream on a summers eve?
There is more than you can believe
We only get there bit by bit.

     I’ve got a friend who can endure
          Most folks say they can’t be sure.

Don’t you forget to hold me close
Be unmoved when i needed it most
There is no sun that will never set
And what you get is what you get
Be unmoved when it’s needed most.

     Because I don’t aim to be letting go
     I don’t aim to be letting go
     I will watch and fend though I’ve been afraid
     I will mind your step though I’ve never passed this way
     Cause I don’t aim to be letting go.
