Gone to bed
Gone astray
Gone haywire
Going my way
Would you go with me
(Come, come, come, come
Come and go with me)
Let’s run away tonight
We’ll be there by daylight
We can leave it all behind
Blessed are the trials we will find

Lust
05:06
|
|
||
|
Left without, gone within
With the plan of doubt, I will not win
The night has seen my kind before
I vex the stars, yet the moon implore
Reflect me as the sparrows see
Lost in the spring of simplicity
Left without, gone within
Hold fast to lust, through thick and thin
|

Give me danger, give me sweetness
Will you love me to pieces?
Are you courageous?
I want action and excitement
There’s no need for refinement
Are you courageous?
Like a secret in the spring
This song for you I’ll sing
Are you courageous?
Will you be my one and only?
I have been so lonely
Are you courageous?

Liz lives in California, with the glitter and the stars
Jason’s from New Hampshire, but he’s always on tour
Star Line to the north, Strugglers to the south
Fluffy’s at the hotel, Brendon at the Hideout
All my friends
All my friends are right here with me
You live inside my burning heart
And we will always be
Brian lives in Philly, not far from Emily
Mara’s up in Maine, Sita’s in the valley
Alan’s in Orient, his paintings are the best
Thomas has a tract out in the Midwest
All my friends
All my friends are right here with me
You live inside my burning heart
And we will always be

Postcards & Letters

Home is never really that far
Keep a song with you, wherever you are
Postcards and letters, and promises to call
Wish you were here, having a ball
Day after day, and mile after mile
My pictures of you still make me smile
Though I’m so far from Massachusetts
Tonight with my friends, I’ll never forget

Sing!

Sing!
Sing, I’ll sing to your summer smile
Sing, I’ll sing to tomorrow’s plans
Sing, I’ll sing everything that I feel
Sing, I’ll sing what our hearts understand
Sing, I’ll sing ‘til the cats wake up
Sing, I’ll sing where speaking fails
Sing, I’ll sing to your pretty eyes
Sing, I’ll sing like wind in sails
Sing, I’ll sing with all my friends
Sing, I’ll sing to my patient wife
Sing, I’ll sing for my family
Sing, I’ll sing my blessed life
Sing, I’ll sing to constellations
Sing, I’ll sing the stars goodnight
Sing, I’ll sing my forgotten dreams
Sing, I’ll sing the morning light

The Sea
03:58
|
|

|
Shimmering light
Like gold beneath the waves
I send all my fear and desire
to the ocean goodnight
At the edge of Cathedral Woods
At the end of security
Birds take wing and sirens sing
It’s all so much bigger than me
And these rocks stand so tall
And on them I stand so tall
And in the glare I can see
Forever
Forever I watch the sea
And the sea, it watches me

Tigers on Fire
03:47
|
|
||
|
Like rabbits dancing in the brier
Or the holy spirit and the dirty choir
We sweat like sinners, we never tire
In the dark we move like burning tigers
“Lay down…”
‘Voodoo’ plays on the stereo
“How does it feel?” sings D’Angelo
Let’s sink by the moon’s silvery glow
Tonight we’re gonna take it slow
“Lay down…”
Sugar, let us take our time
I’m all yours, and you are mine
Tonight your stars and mine align
Let them burn, and let us shine
“Lay down…”

O, Catalina
O, Catalina
I’m frozen by
The truth in your eyes
I’m silent and
The snow is coming down
This moment will never end
This moment will end
O, Catalina
O, Catalina
Have we been living for
The promise of something more?
No longer blind among
All this beauty
This moment will never end
This moment will end

You swayed like a ghost
You sang like the night
Breathed like a songbird
About to take flight
Dusty old records
Harvest sounded just fine
You were singing along
Lips stained by the wine
It’s gonna be alright
Night is a blanket
Time ain’t on our side
Trembling hearts
In each other confide
The most beautiful thing
That I ever did see
The softest mouth
When you whispered to me
It’s gonna be alright
|
||||
11. |
|

|
Close your eyes
See me true
The night is a blanket
The stars cut through
Take my hand
And walk with me
Toward the place
Where the moon meets the sea
I might be a dreamer
I might be naïve
But whisper “forever”
And I just might believe
|

Gentle, Gentle

The night will call, how sweet she’ll sing
But there is sorrow in the calm she’ll bring
Oh friend of mine, your light still burns
Through the ache of a heart that yearns
I have heard these sirens at night
So many have lost that fight
I believe in all that you are and do
Will you believe in yourself too?
Gentle, gentle
Do not go

I know card tricks for the lovesick
‘Cuz in everything there’s magic
From the bedpost in my bedroom
To the secret smile in our silver moon
Have you heard that we have words
Not used in books, because they are birds?
They lift and soar, our songs are hawks
Burst and bloom, punch-drunk peacocks
Our hearts become like little drums
They beat in time, bom-bom, bom-bom
We don’t walk- we sail, we glide
On backs of nightingales we ride

A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe.
