Every Little Bit of It
Just beyond my sight,
Something that I cannot see,
I've been circling around a thought,
That's been circling round me.
Like the vapor of a song,
That is just out of earshot,
And I thought I knew the question,
But I guess not.
There it is just below the surface of things,
In a flash of blue, and the turning of wings.
Drain the glass, drink it down, every moment
of this,
Every little bit of it, every little bit.
I swam against the tide,
I tripped on my own pride,
So I'll try again today,
To get out of my own way.
The face was always in the stone,
Said Michelangelo,
We just have to chip and clear,
To see what is already there.
There it is just below the surface of things,
In a flash of blue, and the turning of wings.
Drain the glass, drink it down, every moment

of this,
Every little bit of it, every little bit.
There it is in the apple of every new notion,
There it is in the scar healed over what was
broken,
In the branches, in the whispering, in the
silence and the sighs,
And the curious promise of limited time.
It's true although it's hard,
A shadow glides over the ridge.
And one fast beating heart,
Tries with all its might to live.
We sense but can't describe,
From the corner of our eye
Something nameless and abiding,
And so we keep transcribing.
There it is just below the surface of things,
In a flash of blue, and the turning of wings.
Drain the glass, drink it down, every moment
of this,
Every little bit of it, every little bit.
Every little bit of it.
