Cedar and Salt

Verse 1

Wood smoke

Sifting through the cedar

Silver bells

Tied to the iron gate

Rust on the hinges

Wait

I saw you by the creek

Wet clay staining your palms

Silver bells

Cold water

Heavy heart

Chorus

Low light on the valley floor

Low light on the valley floor

Everything is golden now

Everything is golden now

Lift the heavy latch

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Post-Chorus

Hey-ya

Ah-lo

River run wide

River run wide

Verse 2

Dust

Floating in a sunbeam

A loose thread hanging from your sweater

I pull it

Just to see it unravel

Quiet

Breathe

Deeply

Count the rings inside the stump

Old growth

New scars

Steady hands hold the grain

Breathe

Deeply

Chorus

Low light on the valley floor

Low light on the valley floor

Everything is golden now

Everything is golden now

Lift the heavy latch

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Bridge

The wind has no name

The wind has no home

The wind has no rest

Over the ridge

Under the pine

Through the white bone

Found a path

Lost a map

Kept the salt

Chorus

Low light on the valley floor

Low light on the valley floor

Everything is golden now

Everything is golden now

Lift the heavy latch

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Let the morning in

Outro

Cedar

Sifting through the smoke

Cedar

Wait

Quiet now

Wait

Wait

Wait
