I asked the atlantic when my time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic when our time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic for to call my baby home
she said honey now
your time ain't come and gone
i know that she loved me like the moon pulls in the tide
i carry round her photograph 'cause it makes for shorter nights
and when i held her face between my palms i could see the water rise
and i saw that she loved me like the moon pulls in the tide
theres a curse on the town where i come from
and that plague has taken so many i love
the city's dark and sobbing still with a terror overcast
seems i run away just to take the long walk back
if i freeze and panic will you kneel down next to me
if i freeze and panic will you softly help me see
that when i freeze and harden please remind me that i'm free
you're the salt that gives way to warm waters underneath
so i asked the atlantic when my time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic when our time is gonna come
i asked the atlantic for to please let me come home
she said honey now
you're time ain't come and gone

What you say and play resonates so heavy we can feel it in our bones. We relate and understand and appreciate what you have to say and the musical way you present what you have to say. Thank you for everything you have exposed the world to. Thank you for exposing the world to what you have lived through. We all need more than what you have given us. So many have lived real loss (including my wife and I) and you present and express it more than most. A big favorite for the wife and I for sure. Michael Benoit
