about

I wrote this as a tribute to a friend that had been murdered in San Francisco. I was going to perform a song at her wake and I wanted to write something just for her. I went for a walk up on Mt. Tamalpais and as I walked the lyrics just came one by one. I definitely felt her presence that day and that is what the song became about. The people we love and care about are always with us, they never really leave our side.

lyrics

When the wind shakes the trees, I know it’s you
And no one feels the breeze but me, it’s you
And when the light points like fingers to earth, it’s you
When my poppies bloom first, I know it’s you

Heaven couldn’t keep you away from me now
I don’t know why, and I don’t know how
But I know, I know it’s you

Amidst all the chaos there’s a moment of calm
Or when a butterfly lands right in your palm
When the sun in December burns warmer than Spring
Then I know it is you in everything

Heaven couldn’t keep you away from me now
I don’t know why, and I don’t know how
But I know, I know, I know, I know it’s you

When I’m alone, I can hear your laughter
And in everyone I can see your face
From the sky, I can feel, I can feel you watching
And in every touch is your embrace

Heaven couldn’t keep you away from me now
I don’t know why, and I don’t know how
But I know, I know it’s you
Heaven couldn’t keep you away from me now
I don’t know why, and I don’t know how
But I know, I know it’s you
I know, I know it’s you, I know, I know it’s you
