Everything (Nothing)

from Everything so Far by Grace Gillespie

/

about

-the first song I every wrote, sitting on the steps outside at my parents house, wondering if I should pursue music or if it was too much of a dangerous thing to start-

lyrics

Sunlight say grace to the cold stone I’m waiting
for that firelight god to lift his darkened eyes

and don’t fear the skies they know no need for reason
the stars can’t keep that shiny dancing charade

Chor:
But oh, to feel your eyes on me
to want nothing .. and everything.

Don’t you see how the water has shown you the fire
and the standing statue stones are the current’s greatest desire
and to grace the lonely moon the sun does rise
but like the moon go i
for the grace of you..
for the grace of you.

The clouds can’t hold the weight of rain much longer
nothings as sure as it would have you believe
and the ground can’t turn its face from what it longs for
can’t close its eyes in pain or ecstasy

but oh to feel your eyes on me
to want nothing and everything.
