Without Warning

without warning
she comes
into the slumbering soul of man
she is wisdom
she is lovely
she's a beauty not made by hand

i tripped and fell this morning
over a thought i didn't wanna think
something pulled me into the deeper water
i took a breath as i began to sink

Sirens wailing on the hidden interstate
someone's in trouble just beyond the wall
i can't go
i can't leave
i am frozen in the feeling
that one day a siren will come for us all

without warning
she comes
into the slumbering soul of man
she is wisdom
she is lovely
she's a beauty not made by hand

whistle a tune in the shadows
hum along as best you can
learn to laugh, walk in a meadow
it's the hope for every woman and man

got an email from a friend in Poland
he says the festival is coming soon
wants me to come all the way to Krakow
wants me to sing a song, play some tunes

without warning
she comes
into the slumbering soul of man
she is wisdom
she is lovely
she's a beauty not made by hand
