When Was The Last Time - Robin Holcomb[00:00:00]

When was the last time[00:00:17]

You were the witness to[00:00:21]

The blacks of night blurring into blue[00:00:26]

And the weird grey light[00:00:29]

That washes up and over you[00:00:31]

The heavy blanket lifted strange[00:00:34]

And each fresh breath[00:00:37]

So soft feels new[00:00:39]

Can you name that place right now[00:00:42]

Where the dawn came over you[00:00:43]

Or do you feel you live too far[00:00:46]

From anywhere wild[00:00:48]

I sent ahead some money[00:01:06]

So they'd hold me for a room[00:01:07]

With a window that can open[00:01:10]

Not an easy thing to find here[00:01:12]

Uneven snow is falling[00:01:14]

Somewhere in another town[00:01:16]

The fat wet flakes so lazy[00:01:18]

That they suck up all the sound[00:01:20]

Here they're hanging lights[00:01:22]

And bells for Christmas[00:01:23]

Up and down the streets[00:01:24]

It used to be a desert here[00:01:26]

I know[00:01:28]

I tried to go out walking[00:01:29]

Ahead the sky was burning[00:01:31]

Painted snowflakes on the windows[00:01:32]

Snowflakes painted on the schoolyard[00:01:34]

And the little bells all ringing ringing[00:01:37]

When you stop or finally start[00:01:55]

To take the time to notice[00:01:57]

Every child who's wilding[00:02:00]

Or tangled in the mountains[00:02:01]

Is singing[00:02:03]

Running in the shadows[00:02:04]

If you get up in the morning[00:02:06]

O catch me if you can[00:02:07]

Turn each houseyard to a wild place[00:02:12]

The house too big[00:02:14]

The house too big[00:02:15]

Let each family breathe the sweet air[00:02:16]

In the morning[00:02:18]

Pale doomsayers on streetcorners[00:02:20]

These we shall unbalance[00:02:22]

If you get up in the morning[00:02:24]

I will look you in the eye[00:02:26]

Like many who have gone before[00:03:05]

We've moved so many times[00:03:07]

I chose a small town from the map[00:03:09]

It had the same name a mine[00:03:11]

But when we got there[00:03:14]

There was just[00:03:15]

A pole a tree a field a sign[00:03:15]

Followed at slow speed by a patrol car[00:03:18]

And there's no passing[00:03:21]

Lost towns are dying inside of verdant fields[00:03:22]

O I can show you[00:03:25]

Pale ghost signs flapping in the winds[00:03:26]

I will drive slowly[00:03:29]

How will you recognise[00:03:30]

The place of your birth[00:03:32]

O how many will know[00:03:33]

Of your place on this earth[00:03:35]

I am trying to live like I taught my baby[00:03:38]

Trying to live like I taught my baby[00:03:43]

And I'm going to try to live[00:03:46]

Like I learned from my baby[00:03:48]

Try to live like I taught my baby[00:03:51]

Try to live like I taught my baby[00:03:55]

And I'm going to try to live[00:03:59]

Like I learned from my baby[00:04:00]

The sun comes up[00:04:19]

And the world begins[00:04:21]

We used to lie there sleeping[00:04:26]

Try to live like I taught my baby[00:04:36]

Try to live like I taught my baby to[00:04:40]

And I'm going to try to live[00:04:44]

Like I learned from my baby[00:04:46]
