In The Company Of You

Grey Eye Glances

Mississippi's arms move slowly

Bourbon Street on a Sunday afternoon

Beignets, you gotta love these blues

Last week Chicago

Almost froze in place a couple of times

Off to shuttle to a charter

London called at halfpast nine

 

I've been around and found

I've walked for miles

On this beaten path and borrowed ground

And it's time to put my feet down

In the company of you

 

This life is crazy

With weekend stints to Nashville Tennessee

Only want to hold you closer

But Europe's where they're sending me

Oslo to Bergen, Norway

An all night train

Cutting glaciers with the tracks

Back down to Paris

To meet someone and get my clothes back

 

I've been around and found

I've walked for miles

On this beaten path and borrowed ground

And it's time to put my feet down

 

You know so much better than I

And sense the things I can't see

And I smile while you throw me a line

All the soul that needs rescuing in me

 

Angels in Philadelphia

Reflected in the ancient Delaware

Keep the door unlocked I promise

I can be so unaware but

 

I've been around and found

I've walked for miles

On this beaten path and borrowed ground

And it's time to put my foot down

 

I've been around and found

I've walked for miles

I've been tired, torn and beaten down

And it's time to build my life around

The company of you
