Generate meaning
1
Coldest night of the winter
2
Working up my farewell
3
In the middle of everything
4
Under no particular spell
5
Dreaming of the mountains
6
Where the children learn the stars
7
Clouds roll in from Nebraska
8
Dark chords on a big guitar
9
My restlessness is long gone
10
Standing like an old jack pine
11
I'm looking for Rexroth's daughter
12
She's a friend of a friend of mine
13
Can't believe your hands and mouth
14
Did all that to me
15
And they are so daily naked
16
For all the world to see
17
That thunderstorm in Michigan
18
I never will forget
19
We shook right with the thunder
20
& with the pounding rain got wet
21
Where did you turn when you turned from me
22
With your arms across your chest
23
Ya,I'm looking for Rexroth's daughter
24
Saw her in the great northwest
25
Would she have said it was the wrong time
26
If I had found her then
27
I don't ask very much
28
A field across the road and a few good friends
29
She used to come & see me
30
She was always there & gone
31
Even the very longest love
32
Do'nt last very long
33
She'd stood there in my doorway
34
Smoothing out her dress
35
Saying 'life is a thump-ripe melon-
36
-so sweet and such a mess'
37
[I wanted to get to know you
38
But you said you were shy
39
I would have followed you anywhere
40
But hello rolled into goodbye
41
I just stood there watching
42
As you walked along the fence
43
Beware of them that look at you
44
As an experience
45
You're back out on the highway
46
With your poems of city heat
47
I'm looking for Rexroth's daughter
48
Here on my own side street]
49
Well,The murderer who lived next door
50
Seemed such a normal guy--
51
You try to swallow what they shove at us
52
You run out of tears to cry
53
I heard a man speak quietly
54
I listened for a while
55
He spoke from his heart to my woe
56
& then he bowed & smiled
57
What is real but compassion
58
As we move from birth to death
59
Ya,I'm looking for Rexroth's daughter
60
& I'm running out of breath
61
Spring will come back I know it will
62
& it'll do it's best
63
So useful, so endangered
64
Like a lion or a breast
65
I think about my children
66
When I look at any child's face
67
Pray that we will find a way
68
To get with all this amazing grace
69
It's so cold out there tonight
70
Stormy I can hardly see
71
I'm looking for Rexroth's daughter
72
& I guess I always will be.
