Between Here and Gone

Tonight the moon came up, it was nearly full Way down here on earth, I could feel it's pull The weight of gravity, or just the lure of light Made me want to leave my only home tonight I'm just wondering how we know where we belong Is it in a photograph, or a dashboard's poet's song Will I have missed my chance to right some ancient wrong Should I find myself between here and gone Now I could grab my keys, peel out in my truck With every saint on board bringing me their luck I could drive too fast like a midnight's thief As if there was a way to outrun the grave Now I'm just wondering how we know where we belong In a song that's left behind, in a dream I couldn't wake from Could I have felt the brush of a soul that's passing on Somewhere in between here and gone Up above me, wayward angels, a blur of wings and grace One for courage, one for safety, one for just in case I thought a light went out, but now a candle shines I thought my tears wouldn't stop hen I dried my eyes And after all of this, the truth that holds me here Is that this emptiness is something not to fear Yeah I'll keep wondering how we know where we belong After all the journeys made and the journeys yet to come When I feel like giving up instead of going on Somewhere in between... Yeah, I'm just wondering how we know where we belong Is it in the arc of the moon leaving shadows on the lawn In the path of fireflies and a single bird at dawn Singing in between here and gone
