Gotta write this one quick
While the daylight fades
See the shadows shrinking down
They’re going back in their cage
The leaves are silent
And the frogs are making noise
I would stop if I could
But I don’t have a choice
I don’t have a choice

This has been the summer
Of taking you to see
All the ones that love you most
Your distant family
Every type of locomotion
I guess except for boat
Maybe we’ll do that next year
Down a river we will go
Down a river we will go

I’m giving a talk 
In Portland next month
It’s all that I can think about
It makes my heart go thump
I want to get it right
Last night I had nightmares
I want to say something profound
But I’m scared it’s just not there
I’m scared it’s just not there

I like coming here
Because it’s slower than the city
Driving by Manhattan I think
Damn this place is pretty
Made made and nature made
They’ve each got their own style
It’s good to have one
Instead of the other once in a while
Once in a while

Now the light is going
So I’m writing as fast as I can
All these thoughts swimming in my head
I can’t formulate a plan
I try to surrender
But I just want to hold on
I have one good idea
And then the ideas gone
And then the ideas gone
