A song about staying put with the one you love... shared here on the day we sold our house.
Looks like a few days away from the forum and I have some catching up to do, but I have to post now: its Canada Day, eh!

When Her Eyes Shine

a stowaway to the gates of heaven
didn`t mind they were closed
she brought back the radiance
spilled onto her clothes

people piled higher`n higher she said
from earth up into space
grabbing grasping yearning
until the stars back away

I always was the restless kind
one more twist to tune my string
since she told me of her vision
settle and stick that`s my thing

been hither `n thither
I can live wherever
we hang our do not disturb sign
home grown happy
when her eyes shine

sometimes she wants to walk out of our painting
we have to widen the frame
when someones been close to heaven
you just want to stay near their flame

the meadow mown in spirals we have tea
at the door of the soul within
don`t need scientists or preachers
in her arms is where my world begins

been hither `n thither
I can live wherever
we hang our do not disturb sign
home grown happy
when her eyes shine
home grown happy
when her eyes shine
