Looking for answers; asking the sky for direction, and knowing everything is a mirror.
We were in the Gatineau - Low, Quebec. I found a meadow hidden among the hills of flaming leaves, and there was this song in the sky. Some fields over sat Dana with his guitar. He must have looked up at about the same time, because when we got back to the cabin we found that we had written a song - together - apart.

lyrics
There’s a face in the sky,
tellin’ me why I’m sittin’ here.
Though I know he’s talkin’,
words so slowly walkin’,
get blown away as the sky clears.
Sun comes through,
an eye in the sky of blue,
starin’ truth down on me.
I can’t see the light,
I am the shadow and the night,
my fear eclipses all I see.
The kind of love we all share is,
The kind of love we all need and,
it’s all around you and me.
There’s a face in the sky,
tellin’ me why I’m sittin’ here.
