You in splendid Autumn
You in sparkling sea
You in moonlit meadows
You in every key
Song of you in my heart
Song of coming Spring
You in all my waking thoughts
You my everything
You you you you you
Tell me all your stories
Sing me all your songs
Wrap your soul around me
Hold me all night long
Lead me to your innocence
Play me like a string
You my everlasting love
You my everything
You you you you you
You there with your courage
And your heart so open wide
You behind your grammar
And your patience
And your pride
You there with your suitcase
And your curiosity
Your smiling eyes and hunger
For the world
You you you you you.

And when the day breaks
And your eyes are opened wide
And you remember
That all of this will pass
And there’s an ocean
For all the tears we’ve cried
And there’s a reason
That nothing ever lasts
And there’s a river
That’s moving us along
Yeah there’s a river
That’s always here and gone
And it’s beautiful
It’s beautiful
And there’s a moment
Just before the sun goes down
The waters dancing
Like jewels upon a crown
And there’s a current
That’s comforting and strong
And in this slowing
We can hear it’s song
And there’s a river
No matter where we are
Yeah there’s a river
That flows into the stars
And it’s beautiful
Yeah it’s beautiful
There’s melodies in waterfalls
There’s laughter in the wind
There’s a stillness just outside these walls
As we all begin again

Looking to the future’s
Like looking to the past
Nothing’s gonna change it
And nothing ever seems to last
So why don’t we just sit here
Happy in the moment
And watch the sunset
And watch this sunset
The waves don’t worry
Birds don’t worry
The fish don’t worry
And we just worry all the time
I wish I hadn’t said that
I hope we get to go there
I hope the earth ain’t too flat
I wish I were a millionaire...
Heads in the clouds
Hearts underground
Ashes ashes
Falling down
Life is more than
Loss and gain
And I may never see you again
If California falls into the sea
Stars get older
Trees get older
We all get older
But we’re still little kids inside
Take me to the sea shore
Let me wear the king’s crown
Everybody’s on the top floor
Of a house that’s burning down

Songs From Exile
04:01
|
|||
|
The wind is rustling down the street
it’s whispering in the trees
I’m listening to hear
If my name is in that breeze
And that may seem unlikely
And unlike me, but It’s true
Just as every person holds a crowd
there’s a thorn in every crown
and there's a world in every town
And as the curtain falls
After a little while
Songs from Exile
Songs from Exile
Here inside these walls
your loving eyes and smile
Are all I need for these
Songs from Exile
What’s out of site’s not out of mind
Especially these days
So invisibly confined
So much beauty on display
Here's to Spring in all its glory
may it's story never change
everything is different yet the same
so much is gone and still remains
so much wonder every day

The Night

Just because it’s black and white today
Doesn’t mean it’s always been that way
Things are always changing
Just because we made mistakes back then
Doesn’t mean we won’t make them again
We’re only human
The Bible is a story book
It’s a leap before we look
Let’s read some Other stories
‘Cause every night we leave the light on
Afraid the dark won’t disappear
And every morning when the sun comes up we say
That the night won’t find us here
Just because we felt the lesson’s sting
Doesn’t mean we learned a single thing
It goes in circles
We celebrate the new year every one
We made another trip around the sun
It’s just more circles
Lay our children down to sleep
Teach them how to look before they leap
That’s the least that we can do
‘Cause every night we leave the light on
Afraid the dark won’t disappear
And every morning when the sun comes up we think
That the night can’t find us here
We’re pretty good at self deception
We’ve been at it
for so long
Always think we’re the exception
Never think we may be wron

Don't Follow Me
03:38
|

|
I’m tired of thinking about
the end of the world
If it’s the final curtain
Let’s just take a bow
it’s a curse and it’s a shame
It could be worse
it could be raining
And it doesn’t really matter anyhow
Now I lay me down to sleep
And you can have my soul to keep
But don’t follow me
( don’t follow me)
Don’t follow me
( I’m just as lost as .. I’m just as lost as you are)
We’ve been pretty bad stewards
Of a pretty sweet deal
Given everything we need
And still we had to steal
Clouds turn into rivers
And rivers into seas
And we just turn in circles everyone agrees
Now I lay me down to sleep
And you can have my soul to keep
And I really want to know
Are we lost or are we just lazy
And I’ve got to stop watching the news
Cause it’s making me crazy
don’t follow me
( don’t follow me)
Don’t follow me ( I’m just as lost as .. I’m just as lost as you are)

Unexpected Holiday

Unexpected holiday
An unexpected holiday
Pack your bag and run away with me
Heading north along the coast
Up to the trees that we love most of all
And it seems like forever
Since the last time we were here
Beaches laced with purple sand
And Cool wind in our hair
Just an unexpected holiday
Pack your bags and run away with me
Close your eyes my love
And promise there’s no peeking
Let the other people hide
And we’ll go do some seeking
On an unexpected holiday
Leave the world and run away with me
The world is getting bigger now and i know somehow that we’ll get use to it
We spin the globe and stop it with our fingers and laugh and dream a bit
And all the miles we’ve left behind
Our hearts will not forget
the places that we traveled to
And the people that we met
On our unexpected holiday

Losing America

Losing America
I’ve never been the patriotic kind
My accidental birth place
was never on my mind
I always understood
pride goes before a fall
I came of age with Vietnam
and I’llu Nixon after all.
I understand utopia’s
just another dream
And I’ve never cast my line into that sentimental stream
But still it’s sad to watch it
crash and burn
this way
Losing America
I’ve never really bought into
the good old days theme
Every generation has its hardships and its dreams
Every single person
wants happiness and love
And we waste our time
if we think
it’s coming from above
I realize there’s nothing new underneath the sun
And we’re not the first to feel betrayed and overrun
But there’s always been an idea
in our hearts that we held dear
The idea that it couldn’t happen here
Losing America
Nothing lasts forever baby
Maybe it’s just time
We’re losing America

Forever

If I could save the love in your eyes
Wrap it up in sunset skies
And hide it in the harbor of my heart
always have you there inside me
Always have your love to guide me
Never have to worry that we’ll part
And we could be like birds above
Just as free are we my love
I hope that we grow old together
I just want to hold you
forever
It’s still like a dream with you
Every day’s a dream come true
Every night I count my lucky stars
Everywhere we roam it’s true
if you’re there I’m home with you
It doesn’t really matter where we are
Promises and vows aren’t just
things we say
I’ll keep them in my heart to my dying day
