The Spring Song
03:46
|
|||
Out of the shadows I have come
To search for brighter skies
and I have lingered in the depths
Hidden from sunlight
Everything around me froze, but the ice is melting now
Rivers begin to roar, I can hear the voice
New life has begun, out of darkness comes light
In the meadows I have seen
Men shed their blood and waste away
They fought for glory and for fame
To be remembered by a name
Vanity has lost its crown amongst the flowers in bloom
Love, what have you done to the soldier in me
The bees have come to pollinate and the sun is all that I contemplate
Lay your head down on my shoulder
Counting sheep will help you sleep
Know this vow will last forever
Take my hand and don’t let go
Don’t let go
Lay your head down on my shoulder
Counting sheep will help you sleep

Seafarer

Seafarer, drift away, let the currents take you home
never mind the wind
Seafarer, lay your eggs, new life will begin
Cracking open in the sand
Don’t you know your
Oh such a pretty being
Oh such a pretty being
Older and wiser than any one of us
Older and wiser than any one of us
I can’t begin to explain
Seafarer, drift away, let the currents take you home
never mind the wind
Seafarer, you will live on, in perfect harmony
Unlike the drowned poets beneath the sea
Don’t you know your
Oh such a pretty being
Oh such a pretty being
Older and wiser than any one of us
Older and wiser than any one of us
I can’t begin to explain
Seafarer, who oh oh oh
Unlike the poets beneath the sea

Climbing Trees
05:38
|

What am I gonna say
When I’ve used up all my words
Will I talk about the weather
Will I talk about the birds in the sky
What am I gonna be
When I’ve been down every road
Will I take another form
Will I die and be reborn
I don’t need to stop to think because I’m thinking all the time
And I guess I’ll climb my favourite tree just to rest my busy mind
Observe the world from a different view; it seems so tiny from up high
From so high
Where am I going to go, when my feet sink into the ground
Will I wave to distant travellers passing by
Long days and I don’t care cuz all I need is to breath this air
I could spend all my time just sitting here gazing at the sun
I don’t need to stop to think because I’m thinking all the time
And I guess I’ll climb my favourite tree just to rest my busy mind
Observe the world from a different view; it seems so tiny from up high
From so high
I’ve got to feed my soul, lose my mind
Just let it go, just let it slide

In Verdun
04:33
|
|||
I was saved by your smile
And the vampire tooth that lingered out to say hello
I’m a slave to your eyes
And that funky giggle you produced so playfully
As I wandered into your room
I will take your side
And I’ll make you smile
And when all goes dark
You will need a light
When you call my name
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
When you call my name
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
In Verdun, by the river
Under willow trees we learned to laugh and know our lips
Like the bikes passing by,
We were happy just to let the hours roll away
And we never stoped to think about polarities
As we wandered into the fume
I will take your side
And I’ll make you smile
And when all goes dark
You will need a light
When you call my name
I’ll be there, I’ll be there
When you call my name
I’ll be there, I’ll be there

Sitting By Your Window
03:36
|
|||
Your blade is sharp, but you’re not cutting anything
Your flame is hot, but it flickers into fits
Sitting by your window
Wishing you were still outside
But it’s raining
and you’re scared you might get wet
Your bed is warm, as you stay curled up in your sheets
Carping like a crone, it’s not your fault, it never is
Sitting by your window
Wishing you were still outside
But it’s raining
and you’re scared you might get wet

Winter
04:35
|

The cold has taken its toll on these lovers
Melancholy reigns
The cold has taken its toll on these lovers
bickering like fools
Where have your warm smiles gone and hid?
Faces frozen in a frown (get me out here)
If we can make it through this winter’s spell, well hell
We’ll be better than before, better than before
The cold has taken its toll on these lovers
Fangs are out to bite
The cold has taken its toll on these lovers
Sinking to the bone
Lord have mercy upon these lovers
Lord have mercy upon these lovers
Love is patient and kind
I know that it’s not easy when you’re tired
Love is patient and kind
I know that it’s not easy all the time

Staring At The Shadows
04:49
|
|||
I’ve been sleeping on a bed of stone
I’ve been sleeping on a bed of stone
My hardened skin, my sheltered fantasy
Another year goes by and I
Long to be free from this long reverie
Staring at the shadows, Staring at the shadows
Long to be one with the world around me
Searching for a ray of hope, Searching for a ray
I’ve been dreaming of an open door
I’ve been dreaming of an open door
To possibilities that I ignore
I’ve been licking my open wounds
I’ve been licking my open wounds
The festering grows harder to endure
Another year goes by and I
Long to be free from this long reverie
Shouting at the shadows, Shouting at the shadows,
Long to belong to the world around me
Waiting for an answer, Waiting for an answer
The bats come out to play, soon

City Lights
05:16
|

I'm going back, going back to the city
Where the people are strange and they don't know my name
Don't come looking, Don't come looking for me
I'm going back, going back to the city
Where I’ll hide in the crowds from the crows and the clowns
Don't go searching, Don't go searching for me
I’ve been on the run before, I’ve been on the run
And I’m just doing it again
And I’ll sit here by your side
Touching me and I’m touching you
Heresy
I'm going back, going back to the city
Where the strangers I meet are more like family to me
Don’t go searching, Don’t go searching for me
I'm going back, going back to the city
Cuz this town’s gonna choke me/ I’m a sinner, I’m a joke,
I’m a tragedy ( Just a spectacle)
We’ll it’s all been done before, It’s all been done
And I’m just doing it again
And I’ll sit here by your side
Touching me and I’m touching you
Heresy
I’m cold but I’m melting on the inside
Your smile is a weapon that threatens to destroy me
Well I’ve been on the run before, I’ve been on the run
And I’m just doing it again
God damn, I just can’t get these wicked thoughts out of my head

A Baby Is Born
06:42
|

Lovers collide
Spring has arrived
A look in their eyes
A baby is born
A teaspoon of light
An ethereal sight
An utter delight
A baby is born
An old dream comes true and was well worth the wait
A family grows and the happiness is shared; light spreads through the night
Like all who’ve come before us, we come to realize that
We’ll find our peace of mind in caring for another’s life
She’s gonna be a mother
He’s gonna be the father of a child
She’s gonna be a mother
He’s gonna be the father of a child
Lovers collide
Something feels right
It’s time
A baby is born
A gift to the world
Potential unfurled
Lips have been curled
A baby is born
An old dream comes true and was well worth the wait
A family grows and the happiness is shared; light spreads through the night
Like all who’ve come before us, we come to realize that
We’ll find our peace of mind in caring for another’s life
She’s gonna be a mother
He’s gonna be the father of a child
She’s gonna be a mother
He’s gonna be the father of a child
