A Separate Flame
04:18
|
|||
All of the love dissolves
Down a shaft of blue light
But it comes when you call
And hides the past in plain sight
You wipe another fingerprint off the wall
You turn at last your day to night
Another one down revolves
A dream in a casque shut tight
A separate flame
Ignites a ripened day
A separate flame
Had scorched the rock and clay
All of sudden you can’t pretend
You can’t go thinking anymore
That there is a hurting you can mend
You’re just kicking up dust off the floor
Days and dreams begin to blend
I can’t tell what’s in store
I can’t see where it’ll end
I won’t even try to shut the door
A separate flame
Ignites a ripened day
A separate flame
Had scorched the rock and clay

I Don't Belong
03:25
|
|||
I don’t know where to go in this world
Maybe stand still, maybe run off
I don’t know what the hell I’m doing
Is this progress? Should I even care?
They know right
Right from wrong
No not I
I don’t belong
Tell no lie
I don’t belong
The world dries up because of all of us
But no one can blame just one face
The world heats up because of all of us
They want out of here, to throw up some dust
They know right
Right from wrong
No not I
I don’t belong
Tell no lie
I don’t belong
I don’t belong
Where do I belong?

Moon & Tide
03:38
|
|||
Take me down the road
Let this tale unfold
Lend your hand to hold
This is love to behold
My addled thoughts collide
You perceive I can’t decide
That I’m the moon and you’re the tide
To never know the other side
But what is your true name
This devilish heart has come to praise
To conjure up what I’ve erased
And what was buried set ablaze
Can we simply live in one breath
A thin line, life and death
What is left?
I see the swirling mist
Down below I can’t resist
To wonder how it can exist
How a mind can get lost in this
Try so hard to see
Beyond what we know
The seeds that lovers sow
Underground, under toe
Can we simply live in one breath
A thin line, life and death
What is left?

Curtains Down
03:45
|
|||
Desert bloom fades to dust
An empty room, slate and rust
Tree limbs sway, frightful gusts
Is it my heart you cannot trust?
Let dead branches down
To keep what we found
Hidden safe and sound
Let the curtains down
A refuge in a million leaves
She tastes the sky and then believes
A serpent’s hiding up my sleeve
To curse the ground that did not grieve
Let dead branches down
To keep what we found
Hidden safe and sound
Let the curtains down

Ask You Something
03:29
|
|||
I know that you have gone to bed
Honey, I know that you have gone to bed
But honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
Ask you something
Honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
Ask you something right now
Do you think this love is right?
Could it change overnight someday?
Could it change overnight?
I know that you have driven off
Honey, I know that you have driven off
But honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
Ask you something
Honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
Asking you something right now
If you could come back to stay
Would we fix all our mistakes somehow?
Would we fix all our mistakes?
I know we're going to buy the farm
Honey, I know we're going to buy the farm
But honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
Ask you something
Honey I would like to ask you something
Ask you something
ASk you something

Your Light Shows
03:11
|

Hey
Your light shows
Your light shows
Your light shows
Your light shows
Never know
How far it goes
How far it goes
How far it goes
What you leave behind
All the light still shines
In someone's memory
Hey
Your light shows
Your light shows
Your light shows
Your light shows
You're full grown
You're full grown
Stepping stones
Steps unknown
You're full grown
There is a place
You can go to retrace
Whatever it was that went wrong
Hey

My Heart is Yours
04:40
|
|||
Mistletoe; hardened snow
Twilit glow; a memory grows
Frosted den; a draft seeps in
Candles dim on shimmering skin
Do me eyes fade into a haze?
A serenade of cloud and shade
I'm still trying
To understand
What makes this man
Where does he stand
Don't you know my heart is yours?
My heart is yours
My heart is yours
Don't you know my heart is yours?
My heart is yours
My heart is yours
Perish does the spring, oh how it does sting
Life's full swing and the night bell means nothing
Desert sun overcome
And we've begun to love this one
Your bed a sea of fallen leaves
Crawl beneath to find your peace
The words are gone, my tongue won't speak
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Don't you know my heart is yours?
My heart is yours
My heart is yours
Don't you know my heart is yours?
My heart is yours
My heart is yours

Folding
04:39
|
|||
Sometimes I remember, dear
Never to forget
To look back, train tracks
Lead back to when we met
A train ride, a line of sight
Unraveling a lifetime
Time, time is folding around us
Time, time will swallow us whole
We share a window
a half glow of summer stars
To repair a hollow
Shine and show, mended and marred
I stare; you know
Light throws us out and far
Light, light is folding around us
Light, light will swallow us whole
At midnight conversion
Gateways our hungry eyes
To know without hesitation
What waits for us under blistering skies
Is a sweltering love everladen
Life is a paradise
Love, love is folding around us
Love, love will swallow us whole

The Heart of It All
03:39
|
|||
Our paths point east
A past deceased
Long loved at least
Fully fledged and released
The hands of time are closing in
A mind stretched so thin
Neither one can win
Your kith or kin
When I'm alone in the dark
A hermit's home makes its mark
But you belong at the heart of it all
Your would not find grace
In your lover's ways
Such a manic pace
A hard line to trace
Life's path it narrows fast
What you see behind the glass
A love that spoils or a love that lasts
Gradually is all we ask
When I'm alone in the dark
A hermit's home makes its mark
But you belong at the heart of it all

Out of Sight
05:13
|
|||
"Wake up" sun says
"Don't have all day"
"Got your fair share
To learn again"
"Make up your mind
Keep it or leave it behind"
"Don't stop just yet
Chase the sunset"
In the night I'm out of sight
In the night I'm out of sight
Might just be alright
Keep your mouth shut
No ifs, no buts
You know it's wrong
Running your mouth the day long
Say your hellos
Hide it where it always shows
Don't show your hand
They won't understand, just won't understand
In the night I'm out of sight
In the night I'm out of sight
Might just be alright
Might just be alright
I'm out of sight, I'm out of sight
Might just be alright

When You're Right There
03:44
|
|||
I know that you care
When you're right there
Know that you love
Love me to death
Love me to death
Sometimes I forget
Sometimes I forget
I know I can seem
To be out of reach
But that's just me
I'm within reach
I'm within reach
Or I'm lost at sea
I'm lost at sea
And there's no land
No land in sight
And there's no land
No land in sight
I know that you care
When you're right there
When you're right there
When you're right there
