Lyrics

Thin Air


I went down to the sea

Over fields and streams just to find thee


And I saw you there

But when I reached out to touch your hair

You vanished into thin air


I stood On the ridge

Haunted by the image of your voyage


Because I once had you where

I could reach out and stroke your hair

But you were never really there


Because I once had you where

I could reach out and stroke your hair

But you were never really there


Vanished in thin air

Never really there

Vanished in thin air

Never really there



Find Our Way


When I wake up in the morning

In hazy shadows of the day

Your ghost glints out a warning,


“Baby, won’t you help me find my way?”


The tempo of your whispered cello

Mends life’s broken ballet

Your rhythm softly echos,


“Baby, I’ll help you find your way.”

Find your way

Find your way

Find your way


The sweet spell of the evening

Floods my soul where I lay

You find me in my dreaming


And say, “I’m here to help us find our way.”

Find our way

Here to help us find our way

Find our way

Find our way

Here to help us find our way



Why She Goes


She shoves her panties into her purse

And gives me a kiss so unrehearsed


She is the  goddess of sweet surprise

as she strips off my disguise

with the gaze of her eyes

and whispers goodbye


I don’t know

Why she goes

Why she goes


This student lingers in her class

With pet provided apples and tacks


She is the angel of the sky

I try to deny

that she is able to fly

even as I cry


I don’t know

Why she goes

Why she goes


Is freedom with or without

the faithful love of the devout?


Is she the heiress

to the gift of Isis?

Her love even mends

as she ascends


I don’t know

Why she goes

Why she goes



Buried Alive


I don’t know where I’ve been

All I know is I won’t go again.


I found a light in my soul

From the plight buried down

Down below


You dug a hole to bury your past

And pushed me in like a leper outcast

And now I’m buried alive


As you opened My heart

I hid pain like an art. 

All the Secrets that would tear us apart

And scar love from the start


No matter how deep a hole

You plow on your way to hell below 


You’re pride can’t be saved

From your ruthless lies

Meant to enslave


You tried to entomb me in your past

But I escaped before your verdict was cast

Yes, I was  buried  alive

But, I will survive



The Damage in Your Eyes


I have seen that smile before

As you walked out my door

It haunts me every day

Since he drove you away.


Now you’ve come back to pretend

That you really want to mend

Your touch is hot but your eyes are cold

With secrets left untold.


As you start to reopen

The things that you have broken

You may realize, the damage is in your eyes.


Your lips say you want me back

But I don’t know about that

They taste faint and unclear

And your swallow is full of fear.

  

The tattoo on the small of your back

Has been inked solid black

To help you forget my name

And bury the pain.


As you start to reopen

The things that you have broken

You may realize, the damage was in your eyes.


As you start to reopen

The things that you have broken

You may realize, the damage is in your eyes.


So rip it up to see

What’s left of me.



Black Car


Black car Tinted windows

Near & far Searching in those

Damn dreams that are

Needing you to consummate this

craved Connection doubtless direction

Like a guiding star. 


What do you say we meet some place

How ‘bout a little face to face.

Ooooh your touch

Is a rush.


I dream of you You feel so close

I reach for you More real than most

As I open my eyes

I grasp the empty space

to realize My mind’s chase

Is telling lies


Late at night when I fall to sleep

I hear your voice so deep

Ohhh I pray

For this each day


Hold me, love me

I’m here on my knees begging please.

Say you’re mine

Till the sun does not shine

Till the palms and the reeds

Sway no more by the sea.

Till the waves cease to crash

This is all that I ask.


Love renews all that’s true (repeat)

Don’t deny me, come and find me.  I love you

Don’t deny me, come and find me.  Let Love rescue (repeat)



Way Out


Way Out  Way Out

Way Out yes, there’s a Way Out   

You’ve been shouting at the world  for far too long


Listen baby we don’t need a bloody revolution

I can show you a much better solution

Theres a Way Out  I know a WayOut   

you’ve been fighting with this world for far too long


Come on baby we don’t need no United Nations

Our Love is the only vital sanction

On the way out, yes, way out

You’ve been wrestling with this world for far too long


Come on baby run with me

Come on, lets run

Come on baby run with me

Put away your gun


We can write our own constitution

And occupy our paired population

On the way out, we’ve got a way out

We’ve been kicking at this world for far too long


Come on baby run with me

Come on, lets run

Come on baby run with me

Put away your gun


Way Out   Way Out

We’ve got a Way Out   Way Out

Way Out yes, theres a Way Out   

We’ve been fighting with this world  for far too long



Always


When I kiss the killing floor

You’re there to pull me out the door.

And in life’s moments of eternal time

You look me right in the eyes.


It’s always, always with you.

Yes, always, always with you.


When they strapped me in the infirmary

You rolled that cot until I was free.

And on the day my ship comes in

You’ll be my soul mate captain.


It’s always, always with you.

Yes, always, always with you.  

Yes it’s always, always with you.  

Yes, always, always with only you.


And if doubt should cloud what we know is clear

Together we will machete our path without any fear.


It’s always, always with you (repeat)



The Ceremony in Our Eyes


Looking back

The past mirrors a clear path

To further our future bond of love

Reflected in the mystic stars above


A hazed henna storm

Tattoos across your heavenly form

In constellations of the night

Flowing in sultry, liquid light


Face to face

Entranced in our gaze of grace

As we entwine we can’t deny

The divine ceremony in our eyes.


In our Eyes

In our Eyes

In our Eyes



Where Does the Light Go?


Oh so late at night

When my girls are tucked in tight

They ask me; “Daddy


How does the wind blow?

Are the stars God’s halo?

Daddy, I really need to know


Where does the light go?

Is it swallowed down below?”


In the middle of the night

by the glow of their night light

My girls ask me


“Does Heaven have a window

So God can see me below?

Is that His echo

I hear in my pillow?

Daddy, I really need to know


Where does the light go?

Is it swallowed down below?

Where does the light go?

Is it swallowed down below?


Where Does the light go?

Where Does it go?”

(Repeat)



Waiting


Waiting for your love

I am waiting for your love

Can’t you see in the night

What is wrong from what is right?


Living without love

I am living without love

Can’t you see in the light

What is wrong from what is right?


Wasting without love

I am wasting away without love

Why ask forgiveness for being a man

When the god you kneel to

made me what I am?

Yes he made me what I am



Eternity


Surrender with me

To our life’s grand journey


Together we will fall

Into the fated arms of All.


Just like the Lord that sanctifies us

With his decree


Lover help guide me

To our clear destiny


Rapture and Unity

Are in our souls energy


Just like the Lord that sanctifies us

With his decree


We always have been

And always will be


We always have been

And we always will be


Candor and certainty

Are written in our Love story.


Lady we will bravely

And so gently

Turn the pages to Eternity.
