American Dharma - You

3 years ago
14

Final track off our debut album, COSMOSIS!
With Guest Vocalist: Cin Beach

One of those songs that write themselves.

'You' came from a jam session we were fortunate enough to record in the moment of its inception. Everything from the riffs to the initial lyrics were discovered in that first improvisational movement.

It was upon realizing just how much more powerful this song could be with a female vocalist, that we reached out to Cin Beach, whose airy and ethereal voice brought the song to another level.

Enjoy!

lyrics:

You

You read my mind
and said the most beautiful things
and I mirrored them right back to you
feeling blessed, yes richer than wildest dreams

because we were One together,
we weathered a many storm of the century,
I know it sounds crazy but it’s true:
a spark set it off and we were One

As above, so below,
unbeknownst we’re in Heaven

Thought I saw you
[We were] Singing under starlight
How I found you, this story’s left untold.

It was like you read my mind

Thought I’d found the Truth
Thought I needed something more
Hoped you’d seen our maker
Hoped you’d be my savior 

but was it right
to set my sights outside
when it’s already Heaven?

So I mirrored it right back to you
was a sleepless endeavor,
could go on forever 
dreaming of ever with You

Singing under starlight
Healing by the sunrise
When it broke into sight 
was like it revived for the first time
and we were in Heaven

A spark set it off, we were One
Until I fell from Grace
And left so much undone
[we were] Singing under starlight
Healing by the sunrise

and a thousand faces
we’re opening their eyes!

Thought I found you
sleepless on the porch,
singing under starlight
healing by the sunrise!

Like for the first time
when I opened my eyes,
it was already Heaven.

And I had forgotten
No, don’t have to look outside, anymore [anymore]
Don’t have to look outside, anymore [anymore]

I believe in our Unity
I believe in your Majesty
You are Divine

You let them know,
until this earth is done
until the sun comes to claim this home
until the stars blink out of night
shattering the known

until the sun comes to claim this home
until the stars blink out of night
until the very earth is done
shattering the known.
