Meeting the Morning Late
01:49
|
|||
|
Out in a lonesome cabin
Passing time, blessing, trying
Creaking the old wood leg
Moving at every moment
Bones will ache, changing shape
Meeting the morning late
Daytime is used up dreaming
Mountains, plains, children, games
Soon it will fade away

Free Fashion
02:35
|
|||
|
Passion, woven
Bad in his brain
Soaking up that free
Fashion
Lousy colors
Lousy colors
Fashion, chosen
Back in the day
Make it up to be
A mansion
Belly fodder
Belly fodder
Clever cover
Passing over
Add another
I don't know
I would hope so
I don't know
Pass it on
A mansion, hosting
All the great names
Waiting for the new
Disaster
Keep on laughin'
Keep on laughin'

The Sweetbrier
02:14
|
|||
|
Have you been around the sweetbrier
And their apple scent leaves
Feeling you've trounced the bushes
And seen all that you'll see
Do you believe in a new love
And a wonderful thing
You've found it standing on leaves
While kneeling curiously
Take what you have in mind
Let it be shown
If it is possible
It will grow
Will you have the time for the trees
With their fingers like vines
Pointing down to the earth
Like they are, calloused with time
Can you agree when I theorize
That we all some time die
And will carry on with the roots
In ma nature's eye
Take what you have in mind
Let it be shown
If it is possible
It will grow
Have you been around the sweetbrier
And their apple scent leaves
Feeling you've met the bushes
And joined the family

Caterwauling
01:55
|
|||
|
Shuttered storefront in late at night town
Shadow figures at play on the ground
Caterwauling, how long has it been?
Since the strays let howl at the wind?
Neath a peaceful lamp lost in the shroud
Lay he tired another life bound
Caterwauling, how long will it be?
Till the sun will show this one away?

Laugh Through
03:33
|
|||
|
(Oh way ay ay la
Ah ha ha
Ha hA ha ha)
Limply time has been passing all day
Heat and fever keep on coming going away
Surely other things are going on
These are all the questions I have pondered on
A facelike pattern lately has been nesting on my wall
The eyes are bright and silver like a perfect marble ball
She is on my wall, she must be there
I am most certain
Shadows on my wall
Oh no

I Long to Feel Your Soul
02:25
|
|||
|
Sweet soul
I long to see you glow
Sweet soul
I long to feel your soul
Keeping near I'm often cracking
Both days and nights have still been stacking
I long to see you glow
I'm endeared that you are laughing
And now it's clear the balance lacking
I long to feel your soul
Understood it is what's happening
As the story's been unraveling
I long to see you glow
Though I may only be panicking
Days like these can so challenging

Toads
02:08
|
|||
|
Under stepping stones
(doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo doo)
Every morning, night and afternoon
(doo doo doo doo, doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo doo)
Toads
(doo, doo doo, doo doo, doo doo)
They find comfort in the shade and keep cool
They find comfort in the shade and keep cool
When the moon arrives
We send em all hoppin' on home to their wives
Toads
Say they're sad to leave but happy to go
Say they're sad to leave but they're happy to go

That's the Recipe
01:43
|

(Eeh yat dat dat doo dat doo dow
Eeh Ya da da da dat doo dow
Wup bow wow wow wow
Wup bow wow wow wow)
Tuck in, makin'
Sourbread dough
Gravy baby daily say they
Oughta ta know
Pastry, hasty
Makin it tasty and an
Hour to go
Hey what's that recipe?
I recall it takes all day
And I know that scent will bring back quite some memories
The flavor did resound
My home became much like a cloud
But the details they all seem to have escaped from me
Listen, it's in
Soon to be crispin'
Over easy really greasy
Fast and slow seasoned
Mitt it, check it
Make sure to sniff it
Bake it for another couple
Hot little minutes
Now that's the recipe!
I can tell that's just the way
That I felt in times when I could say I was happy
Though days now have grown long
I will cook and carry on
And hope the wind will share this joy far 'way from me
|

|
When you have nothing going, call
You're free to count on my company
What if one day you could show me the sand
Hanging around all day and getting a tan
I know you'd love to see the snow
Well I know the place when you're ready to go
|

What I've Grown
02:47
|
|||
|
Would you like to come and see what I've grown for you?
Or are you still undecided if you're going to?
Would you like a little time just to think it through?
Or shall I stay here alone with my bugaboo?
See the succulents have patiently sprouted out
And the thorns and briars wrapped their cozy selves around
Oh the climbing vines have made impressive progress now
How exciting that they're happy here above the ground
Well the vermin have taken quite a liking here
They don't know but I've watched them playing with their peers
I am jealous as I observe all the love they share
It is hopeful that I one day will know such a care

One More Chance
02:23
|
|||
|
Hey aren't you the one who said
You'd be here tomorrow?
What's the point of talking if
You never really show?
I've shown a lot of patience
It's starting to wear me down
I'll tell you once more
You get one more chance
One more chance
You're telling me something different
How can I really know?
I try ignoring rumors
But my suspicion's grown
I pretend it doesn't matter
I don't think it's worth it though
I'll tell you once more
You get one more chance
One more chance

Angel Sounds
02:12
|

|
Big old powers slowly falling
Angel sounds I hear are calling
Ages of old cannot return
These are the memories of a flame that's long been burned

When the Pigs Fly
02:20
|
|||
|
Bup bow bup bup bow
Dum dum, dum dum dum dum
Buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh
Dum dum dum dum dumdo dumdo dumdo dumdo
Dum dum dum dum dum dum dum do dah
Yeah well what are you askin' of me?
Shall I take down some notes how long will this be?
If you wait bet I'll put it all straight and clean
It's nonsense what you've been doing to me
Can you make it sound more believably
The sunshine was out all night as I see
When the pigs fly maybe then I'll agree
But until then you won't be hearing from me

Driftaway
03:29
|
|||
|
Say what you want to say
You have thrown my time away
And I can't say that much longer
I will be around
If not yet today
I will not stick round to stay
I will soon go through the trouble
I will go around
Play as you like to play
Though you may waste all the day
Now's the time for gentle humor
As we go around
If you change your way
I will not ask you to say
I will soon go from this dolor
I will go around
Look in the waterway
If you worry I'm okay
I'll be lost but always finding
What will come around
Don't be so ashamed
I've become a driftaway
I'll be walking unafraid
And I will go around

I Lose It All
03:13
|
|||
|
I follow the land
We like to travel
I climb with my hands and I take in the sights
Denounce my frights and all
But when I'm really where I want to go
I lose it all
I play in the band
I play the mando
I tinker and fight with the tune till it's right
And I can play it nice
But when the music really starts to go
I lose it all
I treat it all grand
I keep a handle
I keep it all light and so surely it's fine
And I am occupied
But when I can't bother to say hello
I lose it all
|

Maybe Not Tonight
02:30
|
|||
|
I still recall the sea
Every single night
She has stopped speaking to me
Though we did not fight
I don't despise the sea
Shining just as bright
I know she will return to me
Oh what a foolish lie
I still recall the sea
Every single night
She has stopped speaking to me
But that's alright
I don't despise the sea
She's shining just as bright
I know she will return to me
But maybe not tonight

Plans to Delay
02:55
|
|||
|
(Ay la ay la, ooh ooh ooh
Oom bow wop, oom)
Your environment hadn't been plain
You will learn what you have to maintain
Every day is ending the same
Everyone making plans to delay
Will you lay me down in the ground
Let my mind be absorbed as it drowns
I am sure you would not leave me there
But this I will beg, you should not be unfair
|

Another Day is Wasted
02:17
|
|||
|
Do you see me so tired?
Funny how sleeping in
Can drain you before you start
Another day is wasted on creating art
I am waiting for
A lesson
I will pass it on
I may not learn, but I can repeat it
I have told you before
But I would like to say it again
You're the one I made this all for
I can't wait to show it all to you my dear friend
