about

Featuring Jacob Jolliff of Yonder Mountain String Band on Mandolin.

lyrics

Seven days down in the hollow
Heavy suns, heavy nights
With a pull so strong to darkness
I embellish in the light
Still the night, too long, a temptress
Where the sun refused to shine
The spirit there she holds me
My love no longer lies

For years this land's been swallowed
By the battle of wrong and right
And the beauty that beholds her
Ingests a balance of song and spite
So now its time to story
That longing for the light
Matched with wild desire
To fuel the fire of night

And the feeling no longer has me
Like a grip lost on the sail
The wind she blows me freely
The spirit she moves me sweetly
I try to move to her completely
And I fear which will prevail

Heavy days now in the distance
Trapped my soul, drought my mind
Wrapped in steam heat can't escape me
What will become of those troubled times?
But behold you, sweet darlin'
Let it ride through on to shine
You are my soul, my light, my darkness
Land of love, I call you mine

And the feeling so strongly has me
Like a gust behind the sail
The wind she blows me freely
The spirit still moves me sweetly
I try to move to her completely
And I know which will prevail
