Loneliest Feeling
02:52

|
Steady dreamin'
Eyes wide open
It's the loneliest feelin'
Where she's runnin'
Ever nearer
It's the loneliest feelin'
When we leave with no goodbye
When you're driftin'
Eyes wide open
It's the loneliest feelin'
When we leave with no goodbye

Jackie Bird

Jackie Bird, with white angel wings on a thread of pearls, I'll carry you and your ballet shows across the water and we'll all walk down to the corner of the liquor store and I'll wait outside and wonder what it's for
Those black bags under vampire wings
To dull your senses make your head ring
To carry you and your ballet shoes a little further
Your thoughts will climb the breeze all washed out and blurred
Softly smilin' with your arms around my neck for all it's worth
Your thoughts will climb the breeze all washed out and blurred
Softly smiling' with your arms around my neck and I feel so sure
That oh, Jackie Bird, with blue-shaded eyes, feathers in your curls
I'll carry you and your ballet shoes across the water
And we'll all walk down to the corner

Joal's Car

I used to walk down your driveway to the passenger side of my friend's old car, scrapin' frost from the window
Climbin' over the seat, throwin' a sweater on and I turn the key
I look up at your window, I see your silhouette below the shades wavin' at me.
I flip on the lights, slowly pull away, waving back to you, so in love with you
I used to drive so carefully down the dimly-lit streets
Playin' the music loud, all the lights were green
The wind blows through the window, yeah it still won't roll up but my hands are warm
My sleeves are long, my mind is calm and I'm driving home

Bridgetown Doldrums
03:30
|

|
Ebb & flow
Yeah, but the sadness never really goes
What I know ... it's got me runnin' before I lose my soul
I've been away, oh such a long, long time in a sunny cave
I'm in the hole, but I still shine
Lovely, won't you call me
I'm in the bridgetown doldrums
I'm gonna wave a dandelion under your eyes and maybe stay or throw the cards for the new ride

Take It Back
04:28
|

|
Oh, and don't you know the borders are golden? Golden
Oh, and where are your, where are your suns setting?
I want to take it back to you babe
I want to see it through and leave this for a while
Oh, and don't you know the borders are golden? Golden
When you cross my soul, cross my soul, it's bendin' this endin'

Heavy Sunshine Eyes
04:14
|
|||
|
I want it to rain tears from an ocean in the sky
Take me downstream
White water splashes in my sight
I'll soak you in now slowly
I"ll take you in now only
Where am I gonna turn with these shades blocking my sides?
Is it all just a straight line you draw with heavy sunshine eyes?
You broke right through and my cloudy thoughts sent me away
Storm's coming soon
My hands are empty, I'm ok
I'm dreamin' every night
I'm waitin' for my flight
I'll soak you in now slowly
I"ll take you in now only
I'm dreamin' every night
I'm waitin' for my flight
When are you comin' for me?
Are you comin' for me?

Sink the Dawn
03:04
|
|||
|
Hold these hours, pass slow
We'll fly, we'll fly till morning breaks
I'll write your smile down
I'll read your eyes
Forget what love has taught too late
We'll sink the dawn with tired eyes
We're going home on separate sides
This moment's callin' just one night
You can take my hand and fall from grace
You can kiss me, kiss me slow, without a trace
You're half asleep, I'm half awake
We'll dream the world, we'll dream the world away

Brother, Sister
03:06
|

|
Dancin' Raven beneath the trees will the Sun shine low will it make me see?
Won't you lay a hand on me? Ya, won't you lay a hand on me, brother, sister?
Midnight Bride, when she makes her flight on a bed of stars, strung out on the night
Says: "Won't you lay a hand on me brother, sister?"
Hallway shadows, ghosts of mind, closing in on me in the fire outside
Won't you lay a hand on me brother, sister?

Willie

Willie, won't you come back and drop again two to ten?
My soul ain't right
Lyin' on our backs stoned you know the feelin' goes with no more lies
Ahhahhahh, ahhahhahh
It's on now
Willie won't you push me off the fence?
I'm in my head, my heart ain't right
Lyin' on our backs stoned you know the feeling' goes, the void that binds

I'm gonna write myself a new story
I"m gonna show you what it's not
