It’s a symbol that you run to
A symbol that you’re seeking
A simple kind of love child
it’s gonna take some bleeding
Take a walk along the river
Bear witness to the season
You ain’t ever found the giver
well now you’ve got a reason
I ain’t wandering through your valley
I ain’t sleeping on your shore
I ain’t begging for forgiveness
I ain’t begging anymore
No more picking apart the old days
They ain’t with you anymore
It’s time to find some new ways
To feel cared for
You got mountains all around you
Still you’re feeling so alone
Would you know it if found you
Would you know when you were home
I ain’t wandering through your valley
I ain’t sleeping on your shore
I ain’t wandering through the darkness
I ain’t wandering anymore
Lord rain down the flood
I saw your shadow side when I was on the run
Brother teach me the song
The one we used to sing
Right into the sun
Would you know when to stop asking
When you’ve been given what you’ve earned
After all your dreams are spoken
After all your ashes burn
Still think that you’re the only one
That’s worth fighting for
Could you make a love not clutched at
But lived for
It’s a symbol that you run to
A symbol that you’re seeking
A simple kind of love child
But it’s gonna take some bleeding
Take a walk along the river
Bear witness to the season
You ain’t ever found the giver
well now you’ve got a reason
I ain’t wandering through your valley
I ain’t sleeping on your shore
I ain’t begging for forgiveness
I ain’t begging anymore
I ain’t wandering through your valley
I ain’t sleeping on your shore
I ain’t wandering through the darkness
I ain’t wandering anymore

Walking On The Wing
03:49
|
|

Here we are again
Waiting in a room
For the man to walk in,
and give us the news
Now every second
feels like an hour
Which way is he gonna spin
this pain we’re living in
Thinking about you
where you could be
Are you out there listening
are you thinking about me
Halle, hold on
Halle Berry
Tell me how you get so free
You don’t rely on anything
To make you happy
There she goes again
Frozen in action
Walking on the wing
High above most everything
Thinking about you
What you would say
When you’re filling up my screen
taking all my pain away
Halle, hold on
Halle Berry
Tell me how you get so free
You don’t rely on anything
To make you happy
Burning up
in those warm city lights
Holding out
for one last sunrise
How did we get so high?
Halle Berry
Tell me how you get so free
You don’t rely on anything
To make you happy

Sorry If I Let You Down
03:28
|
|

I’m never gonna bother you
I’m never gonna follow you
I’m not the type to get mystified or glorify
I'm not gonna smother you
Don't want to big brother you
I'm not the one who keeps a light on 'neath a darkened sky
And I’m not gonna carry you home tonight
Or help you through another breakdown
Not gonna talk you through your troubles and trials
I’m not even gonna be around
Oh, sorry if I let you down
I'm not gonna lecture you
Don't even think I can measure you
I don't want you thinking I'm trying to deceive
I don't want to comfort you
Or try to send you thoughts from across the view
I'm not the one who sheltered alone and locked the door
And I’m not gonna carry you home tonight
Or help you through another breakdown
Not gonna talk you through your troubles and trials
I’m not even gonna be around
Oh, sorry if I let you down
And I’m not gonna carry you home tonight
Or help you through another breakdown
Not gonna talk you through your troubles and trials
I’m not even gonna be around
Oh, sorry if I let you down

Mama Let Me Come Home
04:26
|
|
||
Didn’t I see you down the fire escape
Your hands waving like a child
I came on strong but I waited for too long
I never knew what kind of friend I had
I hit my head on the way down
It ain’t easy like before
You sang that song we’ve been singing all night long
Now there’s a knocking on the door
Mama let me come home
City for too long
Never waited longer than I could
Now I should
Now I might
Mama let me come home
Mama let me come home
Mama let me come home
It ain’t easy like it was before
It ain’t easy like it was before
Didn’t I love you through the window pane
When you were needing heart to heart
Before too long we were singing our old song
Ain’t it hard to find a love like that
I lost my words on the way out
It ain’t easy like before
Oh that song, we were singing all night long
We were laughing on the floor
Mama let me come home
City for too long
Never waited longer than I could
Now I should
Now I might
Mama let me come home
Mama let me come home
Mama let me come home
It ain’t easy like it was before
It ain’t easy like it was before

Like A Golden
03:29

Take me away,
For you to stay
I want you know
Forever chose
I know you win
A fall mornin
I fell chasing
Every meaning
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
I went running
For your season
I got lost in
You’ve been holding
I was renting
Overburdened
You came falling
Like a golden
I won’t wait till
No more winters
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change
How am I going to change

Crooked Light
02:20
|
|
||
What if you could capture a feeling
And it almost feels like flying
Spread your wings
Bend the crooked light you’re leaning on
For all the dreams that you’re calling on
Nevermind
You lead with eyes that hold it all in
Leave the others blind
Sun in your eyes
You reflect the light
And it almost looks like crying
Steady your path
Bend the crooked road you’re walking on
You can’t see the hills ahead
Only a distant glow
I have left my love for you
On the endless road
For all the dreams that you’re calling on
Nevermind
You lead with eyes that hold it all in
Leave the others blind
Seasons waiting for your
Everfalling light
But love you never tried
But love you never tried
Love you’ve never tried

Darling Falling
02:46

I can’t pretend
Everything is quiet
I can’t protect you
All through the night
The light we knew has
Washed us all out
Softened our ground
Darling falling
Darling falling down
Falling down
Why are you sure
This time is the same
I’m not gonna tell you
I was to blame
Now the sun has
Opened slowly
Throwing rainbows
Darling falling
Darling falling down
Falling down
The light
We knew
Tears a hole and
Falls around you
Darling falling
Darling falling
Darling falling
Darling falling down
Falling down

Caps & Stems
03:38

I keep a couple of your pictures on my night stand
So you’re next to my head when I’m down
When I feel like the walls are caving in
And I’m never gonna make it out alive
You’re right by my side
Stop running around
Get out of town
Smoke this joint while the sun goes down
Drive down the road
We’ve never been down before
A cap and a stem; I smoke these flowers too
I wanna get so far away
With you just for a day
Shift my mind. Wake up feeling fine
I was waiting on the last of your letters
They were trickling down from the sky
I always like to burn them sitting around the fire
To make sure that I don’t read them again
You’re right by my side
Stop running around
Get out of town
Smoke this joint while the sun goes down
Drive down the road
We’ve never been down before
A cap and a stem; I smoke these flowers too
I wanna get so far away
With you just for a day
Shift my mind. Wake up feeling fine

Lay my child
Goldrush coming here
Goin down to the river
Leave my faith right here
An angel whispered in my ear
You’re gonna be just fine
Washington will live
In the canyon stuck in time
My mother found hers
Now I’m gonna find mine
Oh the river
Climbing up my clothes
I don’t care how cold
I’m gonna find that gold
If the love you came for
Isn’t the love that you find
And your head spins
With the turning of the leaves
Springtime coming on
Feel the light of sorrow
Warming up your bones
If I came here tomorrow
Would you know my tune
Sing me one with feeling
Holding out my hands
Healing up my bleeding
Climbing out my rags
Oh the river
Climbing up my clothes
I don’t care how cold
I’m gonna find that gold

Snow
03:13

Is the time gone now?
Did I miss the show?
Reach into the ground
All you get is snow
In the broken light
With your head below
For the season’s night
I want you to know
I’ve been waiting for ya
Waiting for ya
I’ve been waiting for ya
Waiting for ya
Where’d my light go?
I’m getting old
Do I need to breathe?
I know how to hold
I’ve been waiting for ya
Waiting for ya
I’ve been waiting for ya
Waiting for ya
