The Innocence Mission - Washington Field Trip Lyrics

The Innocence Mission – Washington Field Trip Lyrics

Having our picture taken
in front of the Capitol building
depends on direction of light,
and on crowds.
I don’t feel comfortable standing
in front of this many people, or speaking,
but I see we’re all the same now.
Up five blocks,
the one o’clock snowing of flowers.

Wanting to be helpful in this life.
Carrying these flowering trees
further in daylight.

Beautiful Francis, I agree,
I do not want fear to hold me.
I don’t want to be kept from loving, at all.
On my soles
the five o’clock snowing of flowers.

Wanting to be loving in this life.
Carrying these flowering trees
further in daylight.
