Early Spring Till (Live at Red Rocks / September 20, 2020)
[Verse 1]
I was out there missing steps when you swung around to me
Best to land, not to crash, you're pulling out too late
Call on everyone you ever knew and plead
Hell, I've been the bum who's underfed
I've been the one, and I should've said
Maybe I'm wrong and I've always been that way
Are you tired? Do you feel wrung out?
Have you fallen from where glory sprouts?
Are you cut off in fields and pressed down
Like an early spring 'til that don't come around?
I think I've been there

[Verse 2]
I think I'm waiting too long
You try this panting and paw
You set a course to cross me out
Are you tired and broken? Once so stout
Are you full of feeling? Don't doubt it when it's gone
I could cut this reel and leave now
I could fill up with air and scream so loud
I think I'm going to
