These Things are You

about

This song about a past life on another planet was written by Peter while picking apples, for pay, in Michigan in 1974.

lyrics

The crackle of an early autumn freeze,
The perfume in an evening, ocean breeze,
The rumble of a distant thundercloud,
Floating trees above a misty shroud,
The melody across a sparkling stream,
A laughing child, a lover's dream.

How I miss you and how I remember you.
The hour fades, the vision pales,
My ship of love no longer sails.
Though memories stay to linger on,
When evening comes, the winds have gone.

The breaking of a wild and angry wave,
A precious crystal in some hidden cave,
Dying suns above an endless pain,
Filtered light across the falling rain,
The instant just before a mountain falls,
Mysteries locked away in ancient walls.

How I loved you and how I long for you -
Through dusty panes, I see a day,
A golden god with feet of clay,
A moment lost in deja vu,
As, in my mind, these things are you.
