By the Beams - Daniel Martin Moore

By the beams of the sun

Don’t waste it on just anyone

Giving you the same old answers

That were never worth a dame

Where my heart goes

There my hand follows

And under every sky

I see you and I

You see yourself

In scraps and odds and ends

An I can’t even begin

To tell you how I see you

By the beams of the sun

And this long and steady road

Do you ever wonder

If you’re not already whole?

However foolish we may be

We stand to make amends

And carry these embers

To a new place again
