I Do Not Know Its Name - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]

He leaned and whispered as he turned the page[00:00:17]

And he said make yourself into a flame[00:00:23]

A crazy old lion with his hair all backlit[00:00:29]

Grinnin' like a little boy who has a secret[00:00:35]

I do not know its name[00:00:45]

Though it's ever intertwining[00:00:48]

And I believe it must look like an old man shining[00:00:53]

We were eating summer peaches by a roadside stand[00:01:04]

Juice running down like laughter on our chin and on our hands[00:01:10]

When we were done we looked around and smiled at each other[00:01:16]

And you said come on carrie let's have another[00:01:23]

I do not know its name[00:01:33]

No matter how I try[00:01:36]

But I believe it must taste like peaches eaten by the roadside[00:01:40]

He drove a rental car shuttle to the airport on Sundays[00:01:52]

We chatted that gray morning 'bout the choir he sang with Wednesdays[00:01:58]

He sang a haunting gospel hymn shameless and clear[00:02:04]

With only me a wandering stranger sitting there to hear[00:02:10]

I do not know its name[00:02:21]

Elusive and subtle[00:02:24]

But I believe it must sound like that man singing in the shuttle[00:02:28]

Standing in the river barefoot in the current[00:03:03]

I hear the sound a bird calling and I try to learn it[00:03:09]

The water is a wonder it's cold and fast and deep[00:03:15]

I saw fish go swimming out too far for me to reach[00:03:20]

I do not know its name[00:03:32]

Swimmer or watcher[00:03:35]

But I believe that there is always something[00:03:39]

Moving beneath the water[00:03:42]

If holy is a sphere that cannot be rendered[00:03:51]

There is no middle place because all of it is center[00:03:58]

I do not know its name[00:04:09]

I do not know its name[00:04:15]

I do not know its name[00:04:21]
