Easy On My Mind

from Echoes and Overtones by Paul DeHaven

lyrics

Wind is blowing in paradise
And it howls from across the garden
Pulling the petals right off the petunias
And we can’t ascertain how it started
If we knew how it started
Then we might know where it came from
If we knew where it came from
Then we might figure out how to stop it

But after days like this spent picking up the pieces
Of the world you thought you belonged in
Gonna need something easy,
Something easy on my mind

All the while the dogs keep barking
And the rivers start running black
I’m not getting much sleep these days
Can’t separate the dream from the fact
If we could separate dream from fact
Then we might might know where we were going
If we knew where we were going
Maybe we’d go ahead and get there.

But after days like this spent
Picking up the pieces
And after days like this spent
Running through the wilderness
After days like this spent
Working through a heart attack
Spending fifty to get one back
Gathering up the growing slack
Of a world you were told you belonged in

Gonna need something easy
Something easy on my mind
