Dreams

Sleep without a care
Beneath my loving eyes
Let arms enfolding you
Give comfort for a while
Let troubles come undone
Let worries melt away
Let dreams come and go as they may
Angel I adore
So beautiful
I would kiss you awake
Let me take
All your doubt and pain
Let dreams come and go as they may
Rolling out of bed
There is work to do
Put your pants on
One leg at a time
Already I'm missing you
Kiss goodbye at the door
Dreams come and go...

Kingsnake
04:54
|

I caught a king snake
When I was just a child
A captive play thing
Stolen from the wild
Courage
To seek what I find, yeah
Ignored the playground
And fierceness of the cries
I climbed the oak tree
Wanting to get high
Courage
To seek what I find
To seek what I find
To see... it's already mine
Way up, I'm feeling down
Kick off shoes to hit the ground
They go, bam-bam crashing free
I don't need that weight on my feet
Cool air, for my souls
Seems I know something
Seems that we both
Crawl for the freedom, say
Crawl for freedom king snake
He don't need no arms or legs
They would only get in his way
Another morning
And I am not a child
Lean back into my state
I feel ok but watch my thoughts go wild
They make me smile
Mmm... Yeah
Way up, I'm looking down
With no shoes to hit the ground
Do I fight a war, or let it be
I don't need that weight to drag on me
(He don't need no arms or legs)
Oh, seems I know
Seems that we both
Crawl for freedom, said
Crawl for freedom
King snake...
There is nothing in your way

Bound
03:54

Ol' eye but a pearl
Wane like the moon
Who did smile from a black pit
Sigh without lips
Blow the chill from the bone
With no life left to worry
Rise like the sunlight slow
In cemetery old
Nay a marker shows
Frozen ground
Gave me way
Grass roots push
Tender blades through
In the sun
Horses play
In the valley where I last lay
Left the hands, fingers parted
Left the feet to rest in darkness
Left the ribs O'er silent heart
One of those bones will be you
Will ya be among them, pining body broken?
In the hour of your soul
Don't be bound
To your life when you go
When I was alive my skin smooth
Beautiful face of my youth
Too soon I did die
Saw my body from the outside
Left the hands, fingers parted
Left the feet to rest in darkness
Left the ribs O'er silent heart
One of those bones will be you
Will ya be among them, pining body broken?
In the hour of your soul
Don't be bound
To your life
Floating freely 'er I go
Soar in sunlight deepest gold
Left the hands, fingers parted
Left the feet to rest in darkness
Left the ribs O'er silent heart
One of those bones will be you
In the hour of your soul
Don't be bound
To your life
Don't be bound

Words
03:41
|

On the road
To a calm reply
I anticipate
It could take a while
I am falling like the fading of the sunlight
Shivering in cold and helpless to the night
Is what you said
Beneath it all
The kind of thing
To make me slip and fall
Ambiguities so innocent I do not know
I believe the worst
And fall to earth below
Oh, on the way down
My crazy head
Will hit the ground
On words you said
You impale me
With what you imply
Insecurity hidden deep
Behind my eyes
What is it you mean
How can I reply
All the thoughts it brings
Leave me paralyzed
Oh, my crazy head
Will hit the ground
On words you said
Words you said
Oh, I turn it into pain
Oh, as I fall
Everyone the same
Oh, save
Save us all

Blueness
03:53
|
|||
Oh, wipe a tear away
That won't flow
Empty of the thunder
Just sunshine, blue skies, and hope
Oh, cry a little tear for the darkness
Of the sea now
As I lie here
Oh, I won't die alone
My heart
Hungry and worn
As I go
Overboard
Off your coast
Blueness as a kindness
Blueness as a lie
Blue as empathy unwind
Sharks are friends of mine
Floating free and wild
Eat me up and I will smile
So let it be the way we always take it
In our stride
Savor drama savor life
Blueness overflow
Till the future makes us old
In the blueness that we know
Oh, I won't die alone
And I know you
And I die a fool
And I die a fool

Mother
03:21
|

We know
Arms that hold us close
So tight they won't let go
Even with life spinning by
Ride the merry-go-round with me
My child
We know what grace is
Kisses on faces and
Reaching to hold
You inside
This is the waltz
We waltz through time
Mother, daughter
Each generation
Our fingers entwined
No age will matter
Where you go I’ll follow
Each time
Joy to find
You are mine
This is the waltz
We waltz through time
Mother, daughter

Summertime
05:34

In the summertime
In the darkness of mind
When I told you goodbye
Let it go
When the body cannot mend
Such a sorrow
To see it end
Love pouring forth
Tears from their eyes
Your children standing nearby
In the summertime
In the cool darkness of the mind
Oh, in those young spring days
Your smile was the answer
To my child's gaze
Loving father
Loving father...
We carry on
Some lonely
Just ripples on the tide
What we can and cannot hold
When time will steal and make me
Cry
For the smiles from your eyes
Father
Who I love
Oh, in those young spring days
When comfort was found in your sweet face
Young child will laugh and play
Always knowing she holds a kind of grace
Like her father
Like a river flowing now
Feel the love pouring out
Like your halo
Warm and mellow
Father...

Weakness
05:46
|

Morning glory eyes
I dove inside
When all I know
Falls down
Oh, ruins of the night
When morning comes
You are just the brooding moonlight
What I see in your eyes
Are changing colors
Days give way to night
And I know
I'm falling
In your sweet face
With foggy eyes
Only a fool
Would take a smile for granted
Insist in the lie
Love is weakness we must hide
I can't believe
Can't you see
Who am I
Hopelessly
Meant to be
Love
Who we are
Fuel my burning heart
Of love...
Stir the crazy atoms
Like the rock you sat on
And pull it apart
And know for certain
Like a heavy burden
Who we are
Who we are
Love is my weakness
Flight of the mind
If love is superficial
I'd rather be blind
Then open my eyes...
Don't open my eyes

Gnome
04:07

Life with a gnome is nothing but joy
Is nothing but fantasy turned into
A world that got small
But I will take it on
I will
So if I sink the boat
I sank the boat
I learned to swim while he floats
And I know life with a gnome
Just won't be typical
And I'll pursue it with a smile
Cuz ours is the biggest love by a mile
Peek through the trees and
Spin my head
In our enchanted forest
Life with a gnome is nothing but fun
Is nothing but magical thinking gone wrong
And I'm freaky tall
But he will take it all
He will
So hop on the dog
A horse for his size
I'll lag behind while he flies
To be chased by a bird,
In our own little world
Let the passion
Sweetly unfurl
And I'll pursue it with a smile
Cuz ours is the biggest love by a mile
I can't complain
'Bout all the mess
Cuz we made it our love nest
And if he asks me I won't say no
Toss the gold dust
Let's elope
And we will fly through these dreams
And I'll be 10 feet tall, my darling
So let the bird sing
And I'll pursue it with a grin
Cuz he always knows what mood I'm in
Don't give it a worry, yeah well,
Happy is how it will end
And when I sleep
And if I have to roll
If I should squish him under me
He cries, "Don't let go!"

Dragonfly
What force
Contains my heart burst?
Bright love
Dragonfly my spark
Dragonfly my heart
Whee!
Dance dip down
Free!
Hum me a sound
Follow the old dusty road
To a sky a mirrored bold
Dance upon the water
Sunlight grows
Bending reeds sing like the swallows
For the eyes and mind and heart and soul
Dragonfly on and on and on
You go
Whoo!
Dance dip down
Tiny king
Make the eyes now hungry
Wonder that you hold
I can make my own
Make my own
Joy
Do you fly
Far away?
Who can say
What you leave before the eyes
Won't be surprise?
Oh, life
Oh, life
Oh, dragonfly
Oh, dragonfly
Dragonfly
One fine day for love
To bring me in
I've come this far
To be here where I am
If I love
If I hide
If I see your blinding light
I know I am
I know I am near
Love oh love
Love, love, love, love
I wadded deep in your pond this time
So soak my core
Fly in scarlet hum a heart burst
I will make my home
So I know what I know
Bring this moment
Time newly born
So I own what I know
What I know
Whee!
Dance dip down
