lyrics

Cracks

Do you remember... how you.... ?
In the beginning.... when I would..... ?
Has it been that long? I wonder....
Since we were laughing together like we always did.

I didn't know you.... when you....
Before you knew me.... I would always...
I had to see you....that time
And then you hit the floor hard when I walked in

And time it keeps running
Our thoughts take us back
The light that is coming
Will shine though this crack

You couldn't see me.... so I....
Though we were frightened... we never...
You couldn't show me.... so we....
Really one can't tell what will be from what used to be

And time it keeps running
Our thoughts HOLD us back
The light that is coming
Will shine though this crack

Now I don't know you.... and she....
But when I'm dreaming... you tell me....
I wake and wonder... if I.....
Before I float back to so-called reality

And time it keeps running
Our DREAMS take us back
The light that is coming
Will shine though this crack

From your perspective.... was there....
Now when you see me... you never....
It doesn't matter... but I....
Can hear the clock tick and wonder what that really was...

There's bells that need ringing
the sun's at my back
This song that I'm singing
Will shine though my cracks

Margarita O'Brien Eugene, Oregon

Margarita rediscovered her musical roots when she found a guitar in the house she was housesitting in the rain forest in Costa Rica during rainy season.

Soon after the ukulele stole her heart away.

In a developing style she likes to call quirk-folk, she writes songs of her life, stories for which you may have been an unwitting muse, encouraging words, and the saddest happy songs she can muster.
