about

It’s difficult to know what to say about this one. My closing songs are often the most personal and hard to talk about.

“You and You Alone” isn’t about God. This one is.

lyrics

It’s been a while
since we’ve done business.
It’s been a while.
Y’know I’ve kinda missed this.
When we last spoke,
it felt like a joke;
just waiting for you
to read the punchline.
When last we talked,
I said I’d walk
if you failed to meet
my demands on time.

So how do we fix this now?
I’m waiting.
I hope you hear me.

‘Cause I’m tired…
I’m tired of fighting you.
I’m tired…
I’m tired of denying you.
I’d like to think
there’s indelible ink;
signed and sealed,
if not delivered.
I’d like to think
there’s fresh water still to drink
and you didn’t break me down to
leave me on this river for good.

So how do we fix this now?
I’m asking.
I hope you hear me.

If you open up the door,
I’m running through for sure.
It’d cost you almost nothing.
It’s always been your move,
but if it’s mine to choose,
I’d like to get back to simply loving you.

So how do we fix this now?
I’m listening.
I hope you hear me.

Wheel within a Wheel
by Grace Basement

Grace Basement's driving force is Kevin Buckley. I went to high school with him and he was a great musician even then. Like fine wine, his music has gotten even more wonderful over time. Derek Brink
