Cool Breeze
04:45
|

|
Stretching out the cobwebs in my head
Rolling over blankets glued to bed
Carpet knees crawling down the hall
Mirror, who’s the fairest one of all
Cool breeze blowing up and down my face
Taking naps for me ain’t no disgrace
Now I ain’t no easy one to find
‘Cause every time I see you I go blind
Dreaming up the magic movies make
Finding all the scenes in just one take
Buzzing humming sing and I wake
Who cares if I got songs to make, songs to make
Lazy daisy picker, so I’m called
Stubborn hard-nosed kicker telling all
Pulling sheets over 10 feet walls
All I’ve got to do is try to stall, try to stall
Cool breeze blowing up and down my face
Taking naps for me ain’t no disgrace
Now I ain’t no easy one to find
‘Cause every time I see you I go blind
Cool breeze blowing up and down my face
Taking naps for me ain’t no disgrace
Now I ain’t no easy one to find
‘Cause every time I see you I go blind

Money til January

I got some money
Til January
I spent all this time
On the sidelines
Might take on it all
You can’t stand while you fall
So I said to me
Might as well take what’s free
I just stepped up to a phone
Called collect and dialed home
Didn’t shake or break or bust in two
Kept composed and called on you
You didn’t blink or wink or roll your eyes
You said ‘welcome home boy, come inside’
It’s time to start my life again
Time to show what I mean to them
I will light faster than a gas can
In the heat of the desert sand
I will shine brighter than the sunlight
Leap into, light up on a dark night
I took on it all
Head down, did not stall
Blurred lines between my dreams
And reality
That place can't sustain
House of cards built in vain
So I said to me
Think back to January
I just stepped up to a phone
Called collect and dialed home
Didn’t shake or break or bust in two
Kept composed and called on you
You didn’t blink or wink or roll your eyes
You said ‘welcome home boy, come inside’
It’s time to start my life again
Time to show what I mean to them
I will light faster than a gas can
In the heat of the desert sand
I will shine brighter than the sunlight
Leap into, light up on a dark night
I will light faster than a gas can
In the heat of the desert sand
I will shine brighter than the sunlight
Leap into, light up on a dark night
I will light faster than a gas can
In the heat of the desert sand
I will shine brighter than the sunlight
Leap into, light up on a dark night

Slumber Queen

Slumber Queen there's a look in your eyes
Telling me that you'll see the sun rise
So soon
Mmmhmm
You're all wound up in a dizzy gaze
Twisted around the turns of a crazy maze
Spun around
Mmmhmm
She said she saw the light
In the dark of night
And though she could not stick around
She said her heart had been found
All your walls crashing to the floor
As you say you've never felt this before
New to you
Mmmhmm
She said she saw the light
In the dark of night
And though she could not stick around
She said her heart had been found
She's a girl and her world's a dreamy place
Graceful in her touch with a touch of grace
Gliding slightly unguided in her freehand form
Slumber Queen's feet finally felt the floor
She could be like a leaf on the breeze
Casually encountering all the world she sees
But cavities of gravity in spoken word
Opened the queen's eyes to her flighty nerves
She's a girl and her world's a dreamy place
Graceful in her touch with a touch of grace
Gliding slightly unguided in her freehand form
Slumber Queen's feet finally felt the floor
She could be like a leaf on the breeze
Casually encountering all the world she sees
But cavities of gravity in spoken word
Opened the queen's eyes to her flighty nerves

Whatever’s clever, darlin, what should I say?
I wouldn’t want it any other way
‘Cause I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
I just wanna make you laugh
I just wanna make you smile
Won’t you come and sit next to me
For a while?
Well it’s breakin me heart and it’s makin me sad
If it is you that cannot be had
‘Cause I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
I just wanna make you laugh
I just wanna make you smile
Won’t you come and sit next to me
For a while?
I am here
I am near
To you
Like the tides in the ocean,
The needle to the dart
Timezones will never keep us apart
I just wanna make you laugh
I just wanna make you smile
Won’t you come and sit next to me
For a while?

Tell Me I Love You
04:16
|

"Are You in my heart?" I'm praying all the time
Keeping all the faith but never stretching mine
Look inside my eyes and tell me what You see
From the deepest part I hide, yeah look inside of me
I wonder like a fish who wonders about the air
I start to think like this and wonder if You're there
Who will tell me when and when will I know who
The answer's always been that I've been needing You
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Here I am again, the world has jaded me
Will I see the forest instead of just the trees?
What slippery slopes we walk, what tangled webs we weave
What will I become if all I think about is me?
Though the dust is thick and the mist is all around
I know that I will hear your words that never make a sound
Your Light will light my path and You drop another clue
My words are incense from the censer rising up to You
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you
Tell me I love you, tell me and I'll love you

Summer spiders roll up their webs
And leaves they fall and trees they dead
And you’re sleeping
But not dreaming
Well autumn is here and you’ll stow away
Like the honey bees at the end of the day
And you’re sleeping
But not dreaming
Like to say in my way it’s okay
If you want, when you want walk my way
A new way
A new day
Revisit a dream while lost in thought
Brush away the leaves ‘fore it starts to rot
Now you’re dreaming
And not sleeping
Never cease to dream ‘cause that’s all we hold
That and our youth, but that’ll go
And now you dreaming
And not sleeping
Like to say in my way it’s okay
If you want, when you want walk my way
A new way
A new day
Like to say in my way it’s okay
If you want, when you want walk my way
A new way
A new day
Like to say in my way it’s okay
If you want, when you want walk my way
A new way
A new day
Like to say in my way it’s okay
If you want, when you want walk my way
A new way
A new day

Moon Over Tucuman
05:26

Twilight
Falling deeper into warm night
Big moon
Up out of the east, shine bright
God paints
Sunset on remaining daylight
Scarlets and violets in sight
Children's
Laughter reverberate from the lake
Laugh of
Tomorrow's plans they'll make
Smoke from
Campfire burnin' hot at eight
Cracklin' and poppin’, flames break
In my mind take me back, oh yeah
In time we'll be back, oh yeah
In my mind take me back, oh yeah
In time we'll be back, oh yeah
The moon glows
On this world I know
Where the concrete goes
On for miles
But my smile
Is a world away
Set on yesterday
When the cool wind made songs in the pines
Like words so wise
I would listen to find
Words that run and hide
I’ve got to get away, got to get away
These days
Memories kept…
start to fade
Hope I never forget the hearts that made em
In my mind take me back, oh yeah
In time we'll be back, oh yeah
In my mind take me back, oh yeah
In time we'll be back, oh yeah
