A New Body And Soul - Kurt Elling[00:00:00]
My heart was misty-hued and lonely from missing you[00:00:08]
Without you near-around me man was I blue [00:00:17]
My eyes would show what I could not say while you were away[00:00:26]
Even so my tears would flow in endless hopeless replay[00:00:34]
Love was always only hearsay Yet [00:00:40]
I'd drift around town with downcast dreams in my pockets[00:00:44]
Stumbling every step[00:00:50]
Trying to motion my frozen feelings in thick-set flop sweats[00:00:53]
My mind would echo with treacherous senseless empty[00:01:02]
My head was inept[00:01:08]
Time was a pathway filled with regret [00:01:11]
Life was just a trial of wanting things that are true now[00:01:17]
Now it's something I can say aloud[00:01:24]
Now that I know we two can make life anew[00:01:29]
And come shining through[00:01:34]
I'll make us a space inasmuch as much as love can do[00:01:37]
A place safe from thunders made by fearlessness and wonders[00:01:42]
Now that love has come now that I have found you[00:01:50]
I watch the sun rise on you and on the hour you wake[00:01:58]
Not knowing waking from dreaming or remembering[00:02:05]
Songs I sing you then I hope you will hear[00:02:13]
If ever you feel fear or coming to an end [00:02:19]
Love is the only thing to balance fearing[00:02:23]
Loving the deepest depths appearing [00:02:27]
Waiting too long for a sign you would come was what[00:02:34]
Nearly killed the spirit in the house within me[00:02:36]
And when you appeared you brought an answer after praying[00:02:42]
Like a sailor sighting landfall on horizons of green[00:02:47]
Or sunrise after endless nights of burning scenes[00:02:52]
Or having sense be restored to me [00:02:56]
Finally the music has a reason to be singing [00:03:00]
Hearing voices calling out of every corner of the city[00:03:06]
Glittering pretty but it seemed like empty pity here[00:03:16]
Chasing them feeling a stinging[00:03:26]
Searching to find a lasting thing[00:03:30]
But always following whatever was flashing[00:03:33]
People thought I had the mentality of a shambles[00:03:41]
Or a house deserted[00:03:45]
I remember stories of Orpheus and his love ruinous Euridice[00:03:48]
Spirited away on their wedding day[00:03:53]
Bitten by a snake upon the way and Euridice had to stay[00:03:56]
In under-day SAD [00:03:59]
Just as bad Orphie had to stay up and lay up with us here but without her [00:04:03]
Some Stun [00:04:11]
Can you just imagine living without it[00:04:13]
Love that was destined to perfect everything that was imperfect[00:04:16]
But Orpheus went played songs for the man[00:04:25]
Jamming a plan[00:04:30]
Sounding a span[00:04:32]
Taking a stand[00:04:34]
Burning in sand[00:04:36]
Fanning the legend of the man who playing music[00:04:38]
Made the sun to stand[00:04:43]
And sad though the ending was I can feel it 'cause[00:04:45]
I would do the same for you 'Cause[00:04:49]
Knowing what we live is part of history[00:04:54]
A myst'ry philosophic asked a thousand years ago[00:04:56]
Living after living spent in killing or in giving or unwilling[00:05:00]
Under-fulfilling a cosmic freak show[00:05:02]
And in all that Shiva takes in closing one massive eye[00:05:06]
Darkening sight and sky[00:05:10]
Hundreds of lifetimes we must try hoping to break the cycle[00:05:12]
And enter heaven's eye[00:05:18]
But heaven's here it comes clear[00:05:21]
When loving is living understanding giving power[00:05:25]
Wonder when we'll get together or if life's a broken song[00:05:31]
Just because we're so headstrong[00:05:39]
And we'll never get along[00:05:43]
It seems like the throng meanders along[00:05:46]
But just as sad as just as sappy just as angry just as scared as sad[00:05:52]
You'd think we'd be happy just to be straight-standing[00:05:59]
On the earth every new date[00:06:05]
Just to breathe in the air and to love every day away[00:06:08]
We're given a life to try all our breath to mend the tears over the world where it is clear the world is broken [00:06:13]
But still the suffering and terrors go on[00:06:23]
Every time I think we may be coming to the brink the glue on[00:06:26]
Something pushes us and down we fall to shatter in pieces[00:06:30]
And that's why our teachers teach "The Itsy Bitsy Spider"[00:06:37]
To the smallest ones:[00:06:40]
We need a fight song to keep us moving along[00:06:44]
I should've sung it when thinking you gone [00:06:46]
You weren't lost you were coming[00:06:48]
I'll teach you I hope to[00:06:50]
Give you love that shows you wonders that only love can show[00:06:55]
And more than you'll ever know I do love you so [00:07:01]
You have got a light living in you in with and through you[00:07:06]
That's what a father's love should teach you [00:07:12]
My life a heaven you are making you have got me in the bag[00:08:58]
You know I'm yours for taking home or for forsaking[00:09:08]
I'll give my life up to make sure you're lacking nothing[00:09:16]
That's the gist of it [00:09:27]
You're the north south west and Eden east of it all[00:09:31]
(I'm least of it all)[00:09:35]
And so my baby then perhaps (then) you will realize[00:09:41]
I have found loving[00:09:47]
With[00:09:53]
YOU [00:09:55]
I love you[00:10:01]
