lyrics

As we find ourselves in time,
we dream inside a dream
Light a candle with a candle and breathe
And you may forget you name
As you drift away to sleep
And find yourself awake
Within another dream
And what should I care for?
The dawn gave me sight
In this old grove where we laughed and let it go
There's a city beyond the lights
Lightly tread on the books we never read
I am dawning at your feet
An orange glow from a past we didn't know
Is calling from the streets:
“To find the water that lives within the ice
There's colors in the night
To find the ember that lives within the flame
There's colors in the day”

Heard WB on a late BC night. Wow. Sometimes feels familiar, then "Can't Go Home" pops up as the jewel that says there is more here than you thought! Anthony B Cook

Shane Butler (Quilt) formed a band with his love interest Caity Shaffer and made great indie rock/pop tunes with lyrics that full of art, poetry and complex human emotions. How to choose a favorite track? Goodness, The epic finale, "Takes One To Know One"? The rollicking "Cut To The Quick"? The folky "Common Ground" and "Vital Sign" featuring the swoony, swaying vocals of Caity? So, so many! But I will choose the ever-lovely "Gamblers On A Dime" which I can listen to constantly!

If Wooden Shjips traded their sails for a prairie schooner, this is what you might hear them playing around the campfire at night on the Great Plains: homespun country-rock with a hint of psychedelia. Wonderful stuff, from start to finish. neu-mann
