From the recording The Blue (Visit to the Aquarium)
This song was written as part of the "Art as Song, Song as Art" collaboration between the Idaho Songwriters Association and the Boise Open Studios Collective Organization. It is based on a painting by Jenny Williams called "Visit to the Aquarium".
Lyrics
A gallery, an aquarium
Curiosity is why you come
You stop and stare and you wonder
If I'm drowning like a fish out of water
I sip my tea and I don't complain
As the colors bleed from the picture frame
Swimming through The Blue
Swimming through The Blue
Who is looking back
Through the looking glass
Through The Blue
A childhood love, simplicity
A sudden wash of memory
A game of chase with a long lost friend
Running through the tall grass
Coming home again
Repeat Chorus
A gallery, an aquarium
