Harder To Return

This town's full of dreams
This town's full of ghosts
It ain't all like it seems
When you've fallen harder than most
There's a mountain to climb
I hear it's divine
If you can get up past the clouds
You can find your way down
Down off the cape
The memories are still burnin'
It's easy to escape
It gets harder to return
Harder to return

Sweet Dreams

Used to pull me on a cardboard sleigh down front street by old A.C.
I had a fox hat and wolverine mittens, and I'd help you with the groceries.
You'd make dinner, I'd read a book. Maybe even watch T.V.
Make me believe like I understand, but I don't know what it means.
When you say sweet dreams. Sweet dreams.
If it smells like winter, then I know I am home.
I don't want you to shiver. Don't want you to feel alone.
I know behind that smile, there's a mind that screams.
Make me believe like I understand, but I don't know what it means.
And I say sweet dreams. Sweet dreams.

Bird's Eye View

Every stitch every suture sewn together like patchwork
Whisper thin and threadbare we throw a little color here and there
Bird's eye view of time
It's that old time, timely rhythm
I'm on my knees and I don't know why
I heard you freeze before you die
I can hear the dogs and feel the wind
There really Ain' nothin' worth savin'
Bird's eye view of time
It's that old time, timely rhythm

August

my heart breaks along the banks of the Niukluk River mama's fallen ill but daddy's with her thousands of miles blinded by the sun oh don't you know that I am troubled by the same one - and the river runs naturally low as it could ever be I'm so far away - it's the first night of summer today
and my heart attempts to heal on the wheels of Lou-Ella she breaks down nearly every day with so much road beneath her she's got one more trip to go before the snow she wants to fly and so do I - she's got 9 kinds of pain and she don't care for the rain oh so far away - on the first night of summer
my love grows fonder with each memory I wander through I know she wants a family the sun is dancing on her eyes and I don't know if she's happy or just wants to cry when I tell I don't know if I am ready - I've go 9 kinds of pain and I'll just admit to one she is so far away - on the first night
now the moon is just a sliver hangin high above the river August might just be for writin' songs not rightin' wrongs or makin' dinner - what if this is all I have, maybe all I'll ever be just tell me if I can make it easy - you want me to say the words stop and listen look at me I'm so far away on the first night of summer

Fault The Wind
04:05
|

|
when the sea, lies upon, your hazel green, eyes of dawn
you've been hurtin' more than you let on
and the sky, it's a burden, with clouds so heavy, they won't move
they won't thunder, they don't rain
and the ground, it shifts so fast
your shadow's tall, it won't last
it's like they tell ya, it's all in the past
you wish it were as it was
when you first came to town
and then the wind, that low down lonesome sound
picks you up and beats you back down
but you can't fault the wind, for never stickin' round
we're lost between the now and then don't matter where
don't matter when
it don't matter nothin, long as I got you
lift me up lift me out
I'd go east and I'd go south
I'd go north and I'd go west
just to find a little rest
we're lost between the now and then
don't matter where, don't matter when

Last Star
03:44

Rollin waves of yesteryear
I'm a rollin stone, I'm still here
The wheel of life, it kicks up dirt
You can have my heart, but you can't take the hurt
I'm still here, chasin' the last star
Outerspace
Now there's a thought
It might be better, if we don't talk
You roll the dice, down a one way street
Love is kind, it's not a disease
I'm still here, chasin' the last star

For The Flame
05:26
|

|
you for the fire you for the flame
your hand in my hand my hand in yours
oh how these moments drift us apart with every wanton escape
with every longing ache and desire and every move that you make
for the flame
every flower never to fade follows each footstep in bloom
with every stride along the skyway see all the work that you do
for the flame
you for the fire you for the flame
your hand in my hand my hand in yours
