Speak To Me
04:36
|
|||
You speak to me without a sound
I can hear you calling me now
Way out here, in the wide open space
I am only passing through
Rolling through the fields of rain
Pushing the tide away
Here comes the golden hour
On my window pane
Dreams become reality
so the dreamer lives on in thee
I have seen ways and means
guide the blind over the grade
I call her my silver wings
the queen of my rodeo
leaving the rest to rust
leeding me over home

Two Days
03:54
|

Two days are holding out on me
Through my window I can see
My winters come
To roll me over
And bring back the sun
And cut back my deadwood and debris
Two days
Two days and going on three
Through the silent night
I lay and wait
for your story eyes to stir
and speak to me
Two days
Two days and going on three
Two days are waiting and holding on
for the words to come along
to the mouth that loves the song
soon all will be revealed
before too longlike falling rain
on the budding field
where I stand and wait for thee
Two days
Two days and going on three

Remember The Trip
05:00
|

Remember the trip
two years are over
Remember taking off
guitar on your shoulder
With everything packed, you turned to Jack
said see you when you’re older
and you turned your wheels away
Remember the road and the river
and crossing over
a long band of gold
and muddy water
Remember the trip what did you hope for
what were you after?
Was it the great escape?
Remember the trip
Remember the waves
breaking one by one
Out on your own with no one to lean on
you leave yourself open
and without a place to fall
Its a delicate thing,
throwing caution to the wind
it can shake you down for sure
Remember the trip, travelling light , running on empty, into the night
Searching for something, far and wide, from the middle of nowhere over the Great Divide
Remember the trip
you and your shadow
joined at the hip
looking for shelter
Remember the sun
and silver lining
high over head
keep on shining

Hail Mary Songs
04:31
|
|||
You know when you’re on to something good
something better than before
Things begin to shine the way they should
all around your door
You know when you’re on to something right
something worth the wait
When you’re onto something more than sleeping in
at a hotel super 8
Thats where i been lying,
Thats where i been dreaming,
Thats where I been drinking away the TV hours, tying off my loosing ends
You know when your turn is coming back around
when something betters blowing on the wind
Well you step on up, you jump on in
and you raise the sail again
Well you know when you’re on to something strong
something good as gold
You climb down stairs from that hotel bed
on the floor that would not hold
Thats where I've been standing
Thats where I’ve been gone
Thats where i was landing all my hail mary songs, and trying to play along
Thats where i been lying
Thats where i been dreaming
Thats where i been leaning all my crooked alibis, while waiting to arrive

Janelle

Can you see me in the corner, Janelle
can you feel my fear
can you feel my heartbeat through the floor
Janelle,
won’t you stand beside me
and hold my hand
When the spotlights bounce off the mirrorball
at the dance, at the council hall
won’t you tell em all I’m here
Tell em all I’m here
Tell ‘em all I’m here
Janelle
If not for you, all of my nights would be a little darker
Can you see me in the shadows
up against the wall
can you feel me reaching out for you
Janelle
won’t you be my partner
and turn me around
When the spotlights bounce off the mirror ball
at the dance at the council hall
won’t you tell em all I’m here
Tell em all I’m here
Tell ‘em all I’m here
Janelle
If not for you, all of my nights would be a little darker
if not for you id be the only one in black mascara

Good Morning Tomorrow
03:09
|

Good morning, tomorrow, where have you been?
Tell me all you've seen.
I've walked in, I've wondered alone in a dream
I rode your river downstream.
I followed your footsteps from door to door
To make up a bed on your floor
I never was certain of anything
But now that I've found you I am
To walk with you always, holding your hand
To love you with all I am
Good morning, tomorrow, here comes the sun
Here comes my only one
Good morning, tomorrow, open your eyes
and lead us in to the light
Good morning tomorrow, sing me your song
Where did you sleep last night?

Four Aces
04:15

There’s no more high times at the Four Aces
It’s time to pay up and roll.
And all that we have for the handing over
Is only fools gold
Since she turned her head and tied her laces
And danced right out the door
There’s no more high times at the Four Aces
And there won’t be none no more
All of last years leaves have flown in the breeze
All in mother natures name
And just like the sun, when the winter comes
She’ll be gone all the same
There’s no more high times at the Four Aces
It’s time to pay up and roll
And all that we have for the handing over
Was stolen or we sold
And now all of our weed has gone to seed
And there aint a row left to sow
There’s no more high times at the Four Aces
Since we let a good thing go
We let a good thing go

Rose
05:08

Oh Rose, a change in the weather is all that we need
Oh Rose, a change in the weather gives life to the seeds of love again
You dance with your arms in the wind
You shake like a tambourine
You wait till a war is over, to see him again
Where once you were golden
You gave it away
You'll be not forgotten
We came here to play
Oh Rose, a change in the weather is all that we need
Oh Rose a change in the weather gives life to the seeds of love again.
You stand there alone on the front stair, of a house where nobody hides
You're standing there stunned in the headlights, when I park in the drive
You turned in to something, a wild display
You'll be not forgotten.
We came here to play

All Of My Roads
04:08
|
|||
All the miles out here seem somehow longer
One by one we come closer
The sun is shining on my shoulder
Everythings moving in slow motion
One ship on the oceans drifting
One ships run a-ground
I aint seen that ocean baby
Since you turned me round
My southern comforts knowing
Heading north I’m rolling back
Into your open arms
My southern comforts knowing
Anywhere I going
All my roads lead right to you
Some crimes down here they go unnoticed
some drift in and out without a sound
I’ve got nothing to hide
and I’ve got time to take a ride
Watching the birds on the ocean dive
Watching the wild things
Living how i want to live
Since I spread my wings
