Tapestry 07:27
I need to remember to let go From time to time 'Cause you'll remember to let love grow In your mind Planting seeds in your chest Leaving the rest behind Feel the beating in your breast Left for me to find 'Cause our love is like an ocean Full of infinite space Filled with emotions When I see your face Through thoughts and commotion I'll wait patiently To be the reflection Of the love you see Spoke the truth and you opened up Before my eyes I want just to drink from your cup And float into bluer skies Planting seeds in your chest Leaving the rest behind Feel the beating in your breast Left for me to find 'Cause our spirits are woven In this tapestry I can hear their whispers From the tops of the trees They know who you have chosen If meant to be The reflection Of the love you see You know love is all I can give So go where your heart goes Free is how I want you to live Just riding the river's flow Your roots grow deep down in my chest Leaving the rest behind Feel the beating in my breast Left for you to find 'Cause this love is like an ocean Full of infinite space Filling with emotions When I see your face Through thoughts and commotion I'll wait patiently You are Wisdom It's so true to me To be the reflection Of the love you see

You keep changing shapes like a cloud I'm not allowed to change your mind Or turn you into things I think I see I have to let you loose from these chains But I know it's now the same without you baby You're out of sight, not black and white Strung up tight like gift wrapping, when I want it to happen You stuck inside just black and white I'm not gonna fight to see you laughing Just gonna let it happen 'Cause I know you're falling right into me

Isn't it strange when you feel like you're stuck in mid air? You have to rearrange the space that's left to spare And I understand that you're loving another man It may be hard but I'll do the best I can Life is just a road Maybe I'll never figure out where it goes But I know that I'll get there Given time, this I know Started to speak but you didn't know I was there I still seek what I know in my heart is so rare Didn't go as planned, still I opened up my hands It's enough just to see you smiling Life is just a road Maybe I'll never figure out where it goes But I know that I'll get there Given time, this I know Life is just a road Maybe I'll never figure out where it goes But I know that I'll get there Given time, this I know

Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Some say you gotta touch the flame just to feel the burn I got a sweet sweet woman but she won't listen to me at all I got a sweet sweet woman but don't hear me at all She don't take nobody's orders, she don't answer my calls Well I'm swimming in sunlight, I don't even know where I've been Well I'm swimming in sunlight, don't even care where I'm going Ever since you opened you eyes baby sunlight is all I've seen Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Some say you gotta touch the flame just to feel the burn Someday I'll realize what it is I didn't do Someday I'll realize what I meant to you Though I think I have a clue You can find me under the covers where I spend most my days You can find me under the covers where I spend most my days I ain't got much to do, ain't got nothing to say Got these waking nightmares, can't be put at ease I got these waking nightmares, can't be put at ease Won't you free me from these shackles, may I be released? Someday I'll realize what it is I didn't do Someday I'll realize what I meant to you Though I think I have a clue Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Raccoon or raccoon dog, when will we ever learn? Some say you gotta touch the flame just to feel the burn

Like Sand 05:28
My heart was in your hand It was under your command And you let it slip away like sand You let it slip away like sand Water stretches thin Over the stories in your skin Girl you're making my head spin Girl you're making my head spin The moonlight strokes your sheets And the warm air underneath Girl are you lying through your teeth? Girl are you lying through your teeth? (I don't know) But I never did find Any kind of warning sign Girl are you leaving me behind? I know you're leaving me behind (I don't mind)

To No One 05:59
I don't always know the places you've been Well I just grin I know you'll be fine with or without me I don't always know the places you've been But I'll let you in I'll try to show you how we could be Someday I'll feel the ground I'm just lifted by this love I've found And you owe it to no one Just like these colors in the setting sun Give it to yourself I can't always hear you from far away Well here I lay I will wait for you to catch up I can't always listen to what I say To my dismay I know that I think too much Someday I'll feel the ground I'm just lifted by this love I've found And you owe it to no one Just like these colors in the setting sun Give it to yourself Someday I'll have a choice Captivated by your sweet sweet voice But you owe it to no one Just like these colors in the setting sun Give it to yourself Someday I'll feel the ground I'm just lifted by this love I've found And you owe it to no one Just like them colors in the setting sun Give it to yourself

Keep me in your clothes tonight Not everybody know it's right I don't look like him, not one bit But you know that enough to make me quit for your love If it's not me it's him, I'd rather sink than swim Now that I've said my say Should I wait another day And wash my dreams away? Hold me in your thoughts tonight Honey I don't know if it's right I'm just waiting for my luck to turn around Searching for a sight or a sound of your love If it's not me it's him, I'd rather sink than swim (If it's him I'd rather sink than swim) Now that I've said my say (Now, now that I've said please stay) Should I wait another day And wash my dreams away?

Dying Flame 05:50
Springtime came then left me in smoke Drinking clouds, guess I was far from reach Turning red with every word I spoke Sighing slowly on that empty beach Now I see I ain't ever going back to those days I'm amazed You showed me to embrace what is now Someday I will look back and hit replay But until then girl, all we got is today So won't you give it what you got, and I'll do the same 'Cause living in hell ain't easy, when you're just a dying flame I searched for you in so many souls And in the bottom of a bottle Oh how I managed to crawl out of those holes Back then it seemed impossible Now I see I ain't ever going back to those days I'm amazed You showed me to embrace here and now Someday I will look back and hit replay But until then girl, all we got is today So won't you give it what you got, and I'll do the same 'Cause living in hell ain't easy, when you're just a dying flame Someday I will look back and hit replay But until then girl, all we got is today So won't you give it what you got, and I'll do the same 'Cause living in hell ain't easy, when you're just a dying flame Someday I will look back and hit replay But until then girl, all we got is today So won't you give it what you got, and I'll do the same 'Cause living in hell ain't easy Living in hell ain't easy Living, hell, it ain't easy when you're just a dying flame

Heaven Knows 03:45
Evening, spirits shouting Blue skies are turning violet Heartbreak, tears are spouting And the answers under your eyelids Heaven knows I'll love you Through wind and through rain Whoever you hold I'll love you How can I explain? Heaven know's I'll knows I'll love you Through wind and through rain Heaven knows I'll love you Noah knows I'll love you There's no use in trying to catch you Wandering through our dreamscapes I've already attached you There's no way we could escape Heaven knows I'll love you Through wind and through rain Whoever you hold I'll love you How can I explain? Heaven knows I'll love you Heaven knows I'll love you Noah knows I'll love you

Waterfalls 05:41
You were all I had to hold Even though I never did I cut the ropes off your wrists And I let you go Your hands started to unfold But like a frightened child you hid I lost you in the fog Far down below So scared you'd be gone for good 'Cause I love you like no other could (x4) Moments before it came out I just bottled up inside Til waterfalls flowed down Through your eardrums Then I knew without a doubt That your mind had been corrupt But I'll follow you through this maze With every strum So scared to let you be I was sure you were leaving me (x4) You were all I had to keep Lost somewhere dark and deep But oh you go You go where you please Underground or high above the trees I'm still here upon my knees Oh you go where you please You were all I had to hide Locked somewhere safe inside But oh you go You go where you please Underground or high above the trees I'm still down on earth on my knees Oh you go where you please O waterfalls carry you where you please O waterfalls bring you where you please O waterfalls bring you ease
