lyrics

I passed a monk today on a
Crow fly highway
The moon was in his eye
The picture told me words of a
Fateful flyby
History’s left behind

I saw him today in a
Gila wood den
Yesterday down by
White Sands

We didn’t speak a word
Still heard love killing sorrow
A robe full of gold
A climbing soul

A rough chin ever so
Slightly tucked in
Asked for naught and yet he was
Given

We didn’t speak a word
Still heard love killing sorrow
A robe full of gold
A climbing soul

It’s Angel Fire
In every soul I know
Truth or Consequences
