Sand Dunes Lyrics by Erin Durant

Islands

2019

Go away summer, let me be
Okay, fine, I'll get to Edward Abbey
Buried in Joshua Tree
Closed the book for fear
I am sand moving across the ocean
Till it ends up on the dunes of Colorado
There's been two ways this could go
And I've been waiting to say
How the passage of a book had frightened me
Though passage as a route can be so beautifully damned
But I'd rather be fishing, slowly passing time
So I'm drinking my wine on a Saturday night
But we're headed real fast, yes, we're headed alright
To a place I've never been and never really wanted to go
This is not what I know
Crack of thunder opens my eyes
This is not what I know
The sunset makes a sharp line
It makes a sharp line
From the east to the west
You want to look at me when I am old
Do you want more light sweetheart, and a blanket to keep warm?
'Cause it's silly to sit in the dark and cold
When everything is all around you're never getting old
I am sand moving across the ocean
Till it ends up on the dunes of Colorado
You are not at home
But I know which way you roam
You are not at home
But the lights are low and warm
You are not at home
But it sounds so good on the stereo
You are not at home
Where did you go?
The echoes of your face are here to stay
For a little while longer till time falls away
But if you're going and you're gone and you're never coming back
Can you tell me one time "I'll see you in the morning"?
