After Minneapolis (face toward mo[u]rning)

Joshua Redman, Woody Guthrie

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 1]
Knee on neck, near naked night
Colors cleave
Fear forms hate in faithless fight
Love that leaves
Racing fast, resigned to ruin
Are we really blind to the moon
And deaf to the tune?
Tasteless tears, amoral might
Souls set out to sea

[Verse 2]
Can we feel the distant light?
Does it breathe?
Broken mirrors subtract our sight
Shadows seethe
Arc that bend forever long
Will it even stretch past this song?
Turn right from a wrong?
Rise up, face toward morning bright
Bravely make our pеace

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
In this land of debts deniеd
Dare we dream?
Draw our breath, lay arms aside
Mend the seam
Sense the home deep in our hearts
Hands held we make sum of our part
To end with a start
Stirring pride, let hope abide
So shall we be free

[Outro]
So shall we be
So shall we be free
