about

“Rose of Jericho was written with my father and an old friend from my hometown in mind. They were both remarkable men that radiated a lot of love out into the world during their relatively short lives. That love continues to radiate out into the world through all of us that had the good fortune of having known them.”

lyrics

In our hearts
In our blood
Come the fire
Come the flood

Wood to ash
Stone to dust
Empires crumble
To rubble and rust

And so it is
We come and we go
But our love lives on
Like a Rose of Jericho

Lights grow dim
Faces fade
Debts come due
That gotta be paid

The days grow short
Summer to fall
It’s a long, slow walk
Down a beautiful hall

And so it is
We come and we go
But our love lives on
Like a Rose of Jericho

And I know in my heart
That I’ll see you again
Don’t know where
Can’t say when

Everything that’s yours
Is yours to give
So much more time
Than life to live

And so it is
We come and we go
But our love lives on
Like a Rose of Jericho

Our love lives on
Like a Rose of Jericho
