One of my favorites songs for over 7 years now. Phish is perennially beautiful.
She started the blaze from one tiny spark
She didn't even detect
She loved the light, was dismayed by the dark
The stars though she seemed to respect
A faint light that flutters at night to the earth
Would land in her eyes and collect
Luminous creatures she'd find in the surf
I never thought to inspect
Pebbles and marbles like things on my mind
Seem to get lost and harder to find
When I am alone I am inclined
If I find a pebble in the sand
to think that it fell from my hand
She gave me ideas, planted the seed
But she never stopped to reflect
The course that she's on, wherever it leads
I never would redirect.
Pebbles and marbles like words from a friend
Seem to hold tight but are lost in the end
When we're alone, we all seem to tend
If we find a marble in dust
to wish someone left it for us.
Pebbles and marbles like things on my mind
Seem to get lost and harder to find
When I am alone I am am inclined
If I find a pebble in sand
To think that it fell from my hand
