I heard this song by Gavin Degraw on the radio, and I was surprised by all the tarot references. has anyone else heard this? What do you get from it? Some of the phrases don't make sense to me yet... Staring at a maple leaf Leaning on the mother tree I said to myself we all lost touch Your favorite fruit is chocolate covered cherries And seedless watermelon ohhhh Nothing from the ground is good enough Body rised It puts over me [chorus:] Oh chariot your golden waves are walking down upon this face Oh chariot I'm singing out loud To guide me Give me your: Strength Remember seeking moons of birth Rings made mirrors of the earth The sun was just yellow energy It is a living promise land Even over fields of sand City filled with burden Cover me From bringing back More than a memory [chorus] You'll be my vacation away from this place You know what I want Holding that cup, It's pouring over the sides Make me wanna spread my arms and fly

I like it ! Maybe someone used a tarot deck as an Idea generator and came up with this song. Ace
