Track Insight / Lyrics
I Keep Six Eggs In A Paper Bag
The Lamp Oil Leans By Every Door
Flour Dusts My Sleeves At The Flag
And Matches Wait Upon The Floor
The Bread Is Soft, The Kettle Sings
A Small Blue List Is All It Brings
The Wind Can Pull My Socks Away
But Nothing Leaves Before The Day
I Write What The Keeper Needed
And Leave It On The Shelf
Two Cups Of Tea Still Bleeding
For Someone Else
No Name Is On The List
No Hand Knocks On The Door
I Guess The Quiet Is Best
When Two Want Something More
I Buy One Pear For Morning
A Lemon Bright As Moonlight
The Village Girl Keeps Coming
To Leave The Pantry Right
She Reads My Letters By The Blue
I Never Finish What I Do
Her Hands Hold Weathered Wooden Rungs
While Mine Know How The Lighthouse Runs
I Write What The Keeper Needed
And Leave It On The Shelf
Two Cups Of Tea Still Bleeding For Someone Else
No Name Is On The List
No Hand Knocks On The Door
I Guess The Quiet Is Best
When Two Want Something More
The Sugar Jar Is Nearly Gone
The Boat Must Sail At Four
I Leave A Feather By The Stone
And Sweep Twice Across The Floor
I Count The Spoons And String The Wire
A Loaf, A Lamp, A Small Dry Fire
The Shop Bell Rings Across The Bay
She Catches Me And Looks Away
A Tin Of Salt, A Rope Of Linen
A Turnip Warm From Mother's Ground
The Bottle Holds The Rain In
The Shutters bang And Shake
I Mend A Coat With Careful Thread
Then Sit With Her Beside The Bread
No Vow Is Made, No Promise Kept
But Every Quiet Word Has Stepped
At Dawn The Gulls Begin To Go
Beyond The Rock, Beyond The Foam
I Hold The List Against The Snow
And Fear The Light Will Find Us Home
I Add One Line In Pencil Thin
Two Words I Never Dare Begin
Perhaps Her Hand Is On The Rope
And Pulling Me Through Open Door
I Bring What The Keeper Needed
And Put It On The Shelf
Two Cups Of Tea Both Bleeding
For Us, Not Someone Else
I Dare To Cross The Dark
Your Hand Finds Mine By The Door
I Never Knew The Mark
Until I Needed More
The Bread Is Warm, The Sugar Stays
The Lamp Burns Low, The Quiet Rises
I Crossed The Dark, You Stood In Praise
And All My Needed Things Surprised Me
