The trees are hedged in darkness

And the sun is tucked below

A sky who proves its blackness

By the grain of my shadow

Dear Judy, do we know

The meaning of patience and of love?

Can a river know the meaning

Of patience and of love before it hits the ocean?

Oh, Judy, the waiting is ferocious

Oh, the Lord's faces shine upon you

Like the breezes you are free

And your grace has grown like the kudzu vines

That swallow all the trees

You are the coolest summer shadow

You are the gentle Southern reach

The finest vine you've made yourself, Judy

Dear Judy, a fine vine you've made yourself

And when the jungle grew around me I was helpless

And if I couldn't breathe, 'twas only 'cause I was breathless

Oh, what I'd do to have you here with me

Oh, what I'd do to have you here with me, baby

Oh, what I'd do to have you here with me all night long

Hold me close, I'm coming home to you, baby

Only time, tears us apart, and what is time really made of?

A flash of light

Hold me close, I'm coming home to you baby, alright

Before the sun is beaten

Overtaken by the moon

Right when the summer's heat is lifting

And the afternoon has cooled

When the violet spears of light

Are shooting bravely at the sky

When the human engine's cooling

When time is passing by a little slower

Oh, Judy, the waiting is ferocious
