Long Into The Evening Lyrics - Bodies & Minds - Great Lake Swimmers

It? s only human to wonder why 

it? s only animal to do it 

It? s only animal to run along the rocks 

And move along instead of talk 

It? s only human to wonder how 

And how I wish I could talk to you now 

And the words tumble out of your mouth 

Like apples from a wild tree 

And mine they spy out cautiously 

Like a creature from its cave 

Our able bodies and able minds 

Are animals and things on vines 

Greening fields and windy mines 

In our sounds and movements 

And the waves like lessons 

Thrashing over me in waves 

Of self-doubt and illusion 

Like night? s intrusion 

On the daylight of the strings 

They gently let me play 

I? ve got points of icicles 

Piercing into me and I miss your warmth 

And the sound of your voice 

Like apples tumbling from a wild and windy tree 

My body aches for you, and shakes for you 

And sways for you 

And dances with your little woman body 

Long into the evening
