about
It seems to me that my songs often run on the theme of longing versus finding, and none more than this one. You can’t long for something unless you have once known it. It lives in your cells. The memory is the way home.
lyrics
Pocket of Treasures
Picture yourself as a pocket of treasures
That multiply when you give them away
Imagine that you could have that kind of confidence
That your riches were here to stay
I wonder – how would that be?
Picture yourself as a garden of flowers
That wither and bloom again
Imagine that you could have that kind of confidence
That dying is not the end
I wonder – how would that be?
Picture yourself as a baby whose mother is wrapping you up in her arms
Holding you so close
Imagine that you could have that kind of confidence
That love would never cease to flow
I wonder – how would that be?
Picture yourself adrift on a river
That’s flowing to the sea
Imagine that you could have that kind of confidence
In your destination – How would that be?
I wonder – how would that be?
