Lyrics

HOLDEN

Holden,
Where have you gone?

I’m gone where the autumn stars are rising.
Out where the lonely birds are spiraling down.

And gone as you are
Can you hold on?

I’m warmed by the moon and winter lightening.
And up in the clouds a comet brightens the sky!

And the forest’s shadow creeps.
There are figures in the leaves.
I see them through the trees,
Talking low and calling me.

And the deep wood shadows creep.
There is someone in the leaves.
A voice within the trees,
Speaking low and summoning me.

Holden,
Where have you gone?

I’m out where the gold night finds communion.
Future and past in tangled union,
Circle about my jeweled reunions,
Much like the lonely birds go spiraling down.
