Kate's Guitar Songtext / Lyric

If I had a peaceful heart
it would look like this-
some trees & hills, a creek
by which to kiss-
The fog would be this cool,
The hawk would sail that far,
and the song I'd hear
would come from Kate's guitar

I know why we live
& I know why we die-
I know why we laugh
& I know why we cry
but I don't know how this
color of sky invites the evening star
& I don't know how such peacefulness
found a home in Kate's guitar-

In the hills of California
lovers struggle on-
there's discussions in the kitchen,
a tired embrace at dawn-
Kate left but I don't think
she really went that far-
Sometimes I swear there's
more than two hands
playing Kate's guitar
