Ease My Mind Letra

In her mother's garden
She would come on with no warning
Flashing summer sheets
We would lay out in the grass
And we'd listen to the sound
Of the falling leaves
She saw what I thought
That only I could see
Her and me could turn the key

Where's that girl gone?
I can't find her
I've got trouble on my mind
Oh, Kentucky, oh Virginia, California
Ease my mind

If you come back in spring
There will be flowers in our room
And on the window sill
Candles like a mirror
Of my stubborn will
Hollowed out but burning still
There's a key under the mat
If you happen to come back
When I'm asleep
I kept all the letters
That you wrote to me
Memorized them easily

There's a free wind on the highway
Whispers soft my holy name
There is no place that I'm going to
Blood I offer is yours to claim

A stranger once came to me
With a book of hymns
In each one I saw your face
Learned the melodies
And then I sang them
On my knees
To find your hiding place
There's a key and there's a map
There are whispers on the path
So I pack my things
Just in case I left a little note for thee
I'll be back soon, hopefully

Oh, my mother, oh my sister
Oh, my woman, oh my child
I will go now
Try to earn you
I will leave this rope behind
Oh, Kentucky, oh, Virginia, California
Ease my mind
Ease my mind
