Love of a Woman

Four in the morning,
Can't see straight
You by the window,
Me at the gate
I feel your soul shine whenever I roam
Well, don't you worry baby, I'm coming home
Felt so crazy when I called you today,
I got a head full of words and nothing to say
And I can't hold you on the telephone,
Well don't you worry, I'm coming home
Don't you worry baby, I'm coming home
Everytime I think I know how I feel
The devil taps me on the shoulder, says "boy this is real"
It's the Love of a Woman
Love of a Woman, Love of a Woman
Soon girl you'll be waking,
And I will be making Love to you
Blind and looking,
A place for my head
Throw you a smile,
you Throw a blanket on my bed
Drape your love above these traveling bones,
And don't you worry baby, I'm coming home
Don't you worry baby , I'm coming home
Everytime I think I know how I feel,
An angel taps me on the shoulder, says "boy this is real"
It's the Love of a Woman,
Love of a Woman, Love of a Woman

Neighbor Jane

You're chasin' a fool Neighbor Jane
Always the last one to come in from the rain
Can't decide between the pleasure and the pain
You're chasin' a fool Neighbor Jane
Came down a year ago,
And you were underground
Thought that you were lost and you told you'd been found
And we walked your street,
Made me think about those days when we had nothing
But frozen roads that led away from you..
Chasing fool Neighbor Jane
Don't wanna argue,
I don't want the blame
Everyone we knew down on the beat just bowed their heads in shame
Chasin' a fool Neighbor Jane.
We can climb that hill in a blink of an eye
And above you is a freshly painted sky
Playing catch with the breeze, dare we try
He might love you, need you... never more that I
You can burn that bridge and take my hand
And below you is a heavy promised land
Looking back on your footprints, where they've led
Stony, weary, hanging by a thread
So, I'll learn my part again,
Just to hold you, hold you in my arms my friend
If he takes you, let him take you to me
If he breaks you, I'll set you up for free
Chasing a fool Neighbor Jane
Chasing a fool Neighbor Jane
Chasing a fool Neighbor Jane

To Find You Love
02:46
|
|||
|
I remember leaving when you came in
Head full of fire, a heart full of sin
We went walking in the shadows to find you love
Floating down the street , smiling singing
echo of the amplifiers ringing
Walking in the shadows to find you love
We went Walking in the shadows to find you love
Fall behind, Call your line
Maybe you're walking with someone else,
Deep inside I feel like hell
Afraid of all the stories my heart tells
Well, I'm drinkin' and thinkin' about you now
Trying to make sense and I don't know how
Walking in the shadows to find you love
We went Walking in the shadows to find you love
Made our vow, Don't know how
Everything solid turned to dust,
You lost faith and I lost trust,
Tryin' to make 'you and me' out of 'us'
So, I'm writing you a letter that I won't send
Cliches about how all good things end
Walking in the Shadows to find you love
Walking in the shadows to find you love
Now I'm floatin' down the street, buzzin' , stingin'
echo of the amplifiers ringing
Walkin' in the shadows to find you love,
No more Walking in the shadows to find you love

Let Go
05:11
|

|
My tired blue love
Close your eyes, will rise above
Fallen angel in your faded gown
With me sleeping on your garden ground
Right by your side
Let Go, Let Go
Meet me again,
My leaving friend
Plumy lips upon a saffron face,
Send me reeling in your velvet space
I'll rise, Soul flies...
Let Go, Let Go
Your worried brow,
Things have changed, we are strangers now
All the holes we tried to fill with love
Still are empty, it was not enough
We tried, Goodbye...
Let Go, Let Go

The Alder Growing There
04:13
|

|
They said, 'Only in your head, you'd be better off out on the highway.'
I say, 'I'm better off that way, so alone but I can do it my way.'
Woke up to a dream
Coming through the mirror,
Lay a while and scream, at the alder growing there.
You walk my trail at night
I see you humming, drumming in the light
I sail into the dark and blue,
Pick a star and bring it home to you
Woke up on a hill,
Clouds are in my hair..
Sat right down to 'thrill' at the alder growing there
So Long.
My old friend, your heart is strong
Kneeling on your hillside after midnight
See it turning green,
Flowers everywhere,
Lay ahwile and dream with the alder growing there

Sarafina

Plead my case to everyone,
Hop a train into the morning sun,
Then we're on the run
Don't know why I spend my day
Losing games that other people play.
Time to get away
Oh , Oh, what do you know
The devil's fooling with my plans.
From Ohio to Colorado,
Sarafina sits there clapping hands
Two singers in a lover's choir
haven't got the strength to take it higher.
We have to face the fire.
Bleeding heart, take your stand,
Ride a guitar into never, never land,
Wake up in the sand.
From Tokyo, to the Canyon of Sorrow
Making castles in the sand.
There you go, telling the river how to flow
While Sarafina sits there clapping hands
Lonely ride, cold machine,
Leave eachother waiting by our dreams.
We part at the scene
One more thing before I go,
Tell me things you think that I should know.
There's diamonds on the road
What do you know, I'm with my favorite traveling show
Friends and brothers in my band
"Boys, you better know... sometimes she won't show"
While Sarafina sits there clapping hands
Sarafina sits there clapping hands

Two Far Gone
02:39
|
|||
|
Woke up to a hail storm,
Thunder in my head.
While visions of the weak and weary dancing in my bed.
There's a storm up in the mountain,
I can hear the thunder pound.
Nothing growing in my garden,
Monday morning coming down.
I look into your eyes before I drift away,
Try to listen in on one last song.
My eyes are heavy and I feel so far away,
And I wonder If i'm two far gone.
All the leaves are scattered,
Clouds go rolling by,
Midwest memories fill my plate and twinkle in your eye.
A crowd of figures walk by and know upon my door,
Their voices, filled with sunshine but I can't hear them anymore.
Little creatures run by, scatter through the wood
And the rain falls like birds upon my lawn.
I would try to help them find their way back if I could,
And I wonder If I'm two far gone
Little creatures run by, scatter through the wood
And the rain falls like birds upon my lawn.
I would try to help them find their way back if I could,
And I wonder If I'm two far gone
Well, I wonder if we're two far gone

I'm walkin' down your highway
It won't end
I'm walkin' down your highway,
It won't end
I'm walkin' down your highway,
Coming from around the bend.
I came up on the Grayline,
yesterday.
I came up on the Grayline,
yesterday.
I came up on the Grayline,
They let me off on your highway
She said she would meet me,
at your place.
She said she would meet me,
at your place.
She said that she would meet me,
Tell me have you seen her face?
I think I believe you,
That's a lie.
I think I believe you,
That's a lie.
I'm walkin' down your highway,
Please just let me walk on by.

I Couldn't Reach You
04:11

In the evening when you wake up next to me,
You got a pain in your heart that just won't let you be.
I was gonna wake up in the morning, do things right,
Turn your darkness into light but I ..
I couldn't reach you
I couldn't reach you
I couldn't reach you
So, we're rising to face another day,
Tell me you can not go on this way.
Well, I ain't got money but I got time.
I've got more love than the Sun got shine but i..
I Couldn't reach you
Who was on your line?
I couldn't reach you
We both will rise
We both will rise
we both will rise
When I finally get my head on straight,
You've been broken and you tell me "it's too late."
I ain't got style but I got soul,
Got more light than the moon got glow but I...
I couldn't reach you
Who was on your line?
I couldn't reach you

Running to Fly
03:03
|
|||
|
When the night is floating away,
I walk the line, go astray
And I'm feeling like I'm in too deep
And I'm felling like I ought to sleep
My waitress friend, she did me wrong.
Played my head, chained my song.
When she tells me that the cards are stacked,
I'll remind her that my bags are packed
Seasons pass, memories fade.
Greener grass, cooler shade.
When this runnin' finally turns into flight,
A new love greets me in the morning light,
And we did it right
Did it right, Did it right..

Your Dreamin' Head
05:10
|
|

I had a dream that we were sailing on the sea
And everyone we knew was sailing by our side
We made it down to where the ocean meets the trees.
and through the equatorial and tropic tides.
We sailed around until we found the southern pole
and made it back to where another journey starts.
I circumnavigate the oceans of your soul.
You batten down the hatches of your heart.
Cruel seas pass me by
Sorrow and pain has all come and gone
Hold me here awhile and follow your dreamin' head
I woke up in a bath and all my clothes were on.
It was a long and sunny golden afternoon.
It must have been the day we made it by the pond.
It must have been the 22nd day of June
I walk into the sunlight falling on your yard.
and find a place where I can sit and scratch my head.
I try to hold on to the memory but it's hard.
I close my eyes and off to dream again.
June leaves, then July.
August rain has all come and gone.
Pull these dandelions and follow your dreamin' head.
I fall into your arms and look up to the stars.
I find a new moonflower growing on my fence.
There was a rhythm in the passing of the cars.
Or was it just a strange coincidence?
I listened to the "Sweethearts of the Rodeo."
I listened to the distant, holy thundercrack.
I tried to run but I could find no place to go
and when I hit the road, it hit me back.
Moonbeams, satelites, solar parades all summer long
Hold these candlelights and follow your dreamin' head.
Cruel seas pass me by.
Sorrow and pain has all come and gone.
Hold these dandelions and follow your dreamin' head.
