Arrival

Arrival Lyrics

My dad's a miracle and so's my mom.
They fly over the blue.
They finish their dinner and then they take one another's hand.
And off they go to find a broader point of view.
For it's a give and take beyond the ordinary.
What with all the cats and kid's that they've loved.
And they will not be alone.

Well my friends give me purple flowers
and orange tea and goosedown spinning quilts
and torquoise chairs.
we greet one another in a wild profusion
and wave farewell among the wonderment of it

In the laughing times we know we are lucky
In the quiet times we know that we are blessed
And we will not be alone.

Well the light that stopped the night felt like forgiveness to me
as the garbage trucks came bustling through their rounds
you stared at the pictures on your walls
