Lost Moon
05:56
|

days go by
just like a glass
clear like a glass
fold them up so they shimmer and pass
it's too late
dog on a wall
I'm a dog on a wall
like a leaf on your tree I fall
it feels like the moon
is lost in the sky
It's filling my room
with silver light
I hear you sing
but are you a bird?
are you a bird?
you wanna fly just by saying the word
hold your eyes
fill up with air
fill up with air
I had a dream I was saying a prayer
it feels like the moon
is lost in the sky
it's filling my room
with silver light

Depending on You
03:55
|

can you feel the diamond light
scattered across the sky by the night?
the yellow moon is turning blue
and baby that is why
I'm depending on you
you know it's true
I'm depending on you
(Abba Abba, Yahweh Yahweh)
that's what I do
I'm depending on you
are you made of morning light?
and will the horizon fade from my sight?
the shadow world is bleeding through
and baby that is why I'm depending on you
(Abba Abba, Yahweh Yahweh)

Easy Does It

take it all away
take it all away
it's colder than a leaf on the wind
take it all away
there's a shadow man living inside of me
he's been there since the day I was born
he's a shadow man
take it all away forever
forever and ever
I'm never gonna shake this shadow
I'm weak in the knees
make it go away forever
I'm begging you please
there's a cold hearted man living inside of me
but he's been on the run since that day in June
I just wanna hear you say easy does it
take it all away forever, forever and ever
I'm never gonna shake this shadow
I'm weak in the knees
make it go away forever
I'm begging you please
take it all away
take it all away
it's colder than a leaf on the wind
take it all away
you take it all away
you take it all away

Love's in Love
04:08
|

yesterday was fine but love's in love today
tomorrow might be kind but love's in love today
do you have the time? not at all
and did you read the news? not at all
yesterday was cool
but love's in love today
tomorrow's growing old
but love's in love today
do you have the time? not at all
and do you hear your phone? not at all
do you have the time? not at all
and did you hear the news? not at all

Fear of Flying
04:57
|
|||
I took a wrong turn but I know the way
every day is coming down the wire
things are catching fire
you're so real, you don't have to feel
hey, no big deal, oh la la la
(Josephine) you're not there (come here)
you don't even care (lighter than air)
fingers in my ears, oh la la la
took a wrong turn but I know the way
like a lonely bird making his way through the rain
every day is coming down the wire
you know that things are catching fire
it's so real, I don't even know
hey, no big deal, oh la la la
(Josephine) I'm not there (come here)
all alone and scared (sun in my hair)
fingers in my ears, oh la la la
but you never know...

You're Silver
03:53
|

baby you're silver
oh yeah my golden girl
your brown eyes are deeper than the ocean
you're silver my golden girl
eureka hallelujah
oh the sky is open
my chorus flows right into your verses
(tens of millions of trees)
eureka hallelujah
my redwood clover
I found you
my golden girl
sayonora s.o.s.
cause it's over
the sky is falling
the intro flows right into the outro
(middle of bridge of the dream)
I'm dreaming, r.e.m.
please don't wake me
thank the lord that I found you
my golden girl

Maggie and Lucy and Lucy and Maggie
did you ever see a coin, I mean a Penny
that could flip itself?
heads or tails
(twinkle the keys just like a player piano)
an eye for eye
an ear for an ear
I'm going away but I'll always be here
and I know that
but it's so hard to show that
Lucy and Maggie and Maggie and Lucy
did you ever watch Jelly on the tele?
climb your family tree
what do you see?
(you're no only child, b/c we're all only children)
day after day year after year
I'm going away but I wish you were here
but I know that
I'm just waiting to show that
in the light of the moon
moonbathing
we're moonbathing
baby baby
Grady and Clovis and Clovis and Grady
ran away from home when they were 20
back in '56
planted a tree
for you and me
(it's called hallelujah)
time after time these minutes of mine
are washing away
but I'll always be here
and I know that
I'm just waiting to show that
in the light of the moon

Human Hearts
04:02
|

I wanna put the band back together
for human hearts write fairy tales for free
so dust off all your denim and your leather
like Andy said the birds will fall from trees
Tommy worked at Harry's helicopters
fixing choppers for the man
in borrowed boots we slid down stairs
bled icy hoots of never caring laughter
so brush your pretty hair
(cause you'll lose it don't you know)
and make your little bed
(for your girlfriend Judy Rose)
you'll never be alone
(if you're always on the road)
I wanna put the band back together
(always on the road)
press some discs and 45s and pins
(please please come on home)
so dust off all your denim and your leather
(always on the road)
and go on singing naughty through the wind
the broken rings collected there
such smoky things we breathed out every night
the river rose while we came down
with bloody noses
running on her gown
so brush your pretty hair
(cause you'll lose it don't you know)
and make your little bed
(for your girlfriend Judy Rose)
you'll never be alone
if you're always on the road
let's try to put the band back together
(always on the road)
for human hearts write fairy tales for free
(please please come on home)
we'll pick a fight and argue about whether
(always on the road)
Andy said we'd be forever free
