Between Earth & Starlight Lyrics

BETWEEN EARTH AND STARLIGHT

There's a house on the edge of town

A lot of folks they want to knock it down

But don't let 'em make you think like that

Such a place I wish they'd just leave alone

You can see it when you pass it by

Set back in dry grass three foot high

There's a goat there from time to time

Like the ghost of the old man's son

Behind the house stand two tall trees, tall and thin

Spirit sisters, like they've always been

And with brother goat and his manchurian grin

You can feel how they won't let you in

There's a feeling there

And when I'm chasing down my headlights at night

They're in the air, spinning free

They anchor the twilight between earth and starlight

Shimmer and float and they dance and they joke

At these things humans will never know
