Atlas Lyrics & Chords By Meg Hutchinson

Can't be Atlas any longer
I can't hold up the sky tonight
I can't sing the world a lullaby
Or, kiss the emptiness goodnight
I wish like milkweed in the sunlight
The wind would hollow me a place in life
Thinking about me thinking about you
As if I could come
to some kind of simple truth
Let it fall, down
I'd write a song
but would it make sense in the morning?
Cradled in a prayer of the mountains
November bares the bones of all things
The trees are naked on the horizon line
And I lose the myths that I've been hiding in
Winding home by the river
Sweet elusive lover
Between the fire and the Pleiades
Darkness falls
and I curl warm around this dream
