Jericho Lyrics

You can't see me yet, seeing takes a long, long time.
From the outside in, measuring each shift and sound.
But as you let your eyes adjust to the darkness deep within,
Sifting through the ash and dust, we are the places that we've been.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e90825-mary_chapin_carpenter~jericho_lyrics.html ]
And you can't hear me yet, listening takes a long, long time.
And I've so much to tell, but words die on these lips of mine.
But in the stillness you may sense everything I long to say,
Unraveling like golden threads, the walls will all come down this way.

And you don't know me yet, knowing takes a long, long time
And time is all we have, never travelling in straight lines.
So memorize each turn and twist, and just be careful as you go
For love is a labyrinth and my heart is Jericho.
