I smell you and I know I’m home
I listen to your heartbeat as I drift asleep
I see your beauty first thing in the morning
I touch you when I need to reset
I taste you on my lips when I ride you

I think we’ve been here before
You kick me when I’m on the floor
You kick me until I bleed
But maybe it’s what I need
I was always true
But I never knew the real you

I think we’ve been here before
You want something, but you’re not sure
How can somebody hope to know
The things you refuse to show
How can I hope to help
When you don’t even know yourself

I think I’ve been here before
Don’t want this cycle anymore
It’s nobody’s fault but mine
I can choose a better design
Calling in something more aligned
As I come to know myself in time

San Diego, California

Take your feelings
And all of your dealings
And find them in your
Dreams

Write your story
First thing in the morning
Find out what it
Means

Ooh it’s a kaleidoscope
Ooh it’s a kaleidoscope
Ooh it’s a kaleidoscope
I see

Hear a little whisper
And you start to miss her
Cry out in the
Streets

Burn another picture
When I used to kiss her
Memories of sweet
Scenes

Original poem posting

Studio audio

I saw you standin’
Silently
I saw you standin’
But not with me

I saw you starin’
I saw you carin’
I saw your starin’
But not at me

San Diego, CA

I’m trying
To find my way home
I’m crying
I’m not able

I need so much to
Get in the right zone
I need your touch to
Feel stable

Berkeley, California

When I saw you
In the morning
Beautif’lly snoring
I wished that
I could freeze
Time

When I left you
In the evening
Painf’lly grieving
I wished that
I could
Rewind

Help me
Find my
Peace of mind

When I met you
That afternoon
Everything seemed in tune
I knew that
We’d
Harmonize

When I kissed you
That night
Everything seemed so bright
I knew we’d
Be each others’
Light

Berkeley, California

I went to the seashore
And I thought I could see more
If I took the next boat out of
Here
I was in a hurry
But I didn’t worry
Cause uncertainty is not what I
Fear

Across the ocean
Across the ocean

40 nights at sea
Knocked the wind out of me
By the time we anchored on the next
Dock
When my crewmates scattered
I was feeling tattered
Alone with my bag on a
Rock

Berkeley, California

I tried 1000 times to get
Through to you
I tried and tried, even though
I’m not supposed to

Slipping down and out through
The other side
I think I might be losing
My alibi
I might be discovering
My shadow side
It’s not the first and I fear it’s not
The last time

I give it my all
But still I fall
I lay my soul bare
But you’re not there
