Just Now 04:08
lyrics

Just Now Just now I saw a woman in her seventies In a 1920’s Ford Cell phone to her ear And I wondered how we talk To one another Just now Just now I felt the coolness Of a gray fog rolling in Just now I felt the whisper Of a breeze against my skin And I wondered how much of life I’ve missed Just now Just now I felt a crack Rip violent through the air Just now I felt the shudder when The old oak tree fell And I wondered at how fragile We all are Just now Just now I saw your bright eyes In the early morning light Just now I felt your soft hair In the palm of my hand And I wondered how we’ve missed Each other Just now Just now I realized Just now I realized Just now I realized Just now Just now I saw a woman in her twenties Riding on her bicycle Cell phone to her ear And I realized how we talk To one another Just now

More Than It Seems 03:27
lyrics

More Than It Seems the color of an attitude the face of of a dream the texture of a memory it’s more than it seems the feeling of a free fall the smell of the wind the spark, the cinders, ashes glow it’s more than it seems the glowing of a misstep the fading of the ink the reading of an outstretched hand it’s more than it seems the whisper of the waves the roiling virgin wood the sinking of the storm it’s more than it seems a small step a giant leap spaced-out jazz the blackest sheep darkest deep the looking glass can I color my own world? can I color my own world? brightness of a daydream light in brimming eyes vibration in the soul it’s more than it seems we’re colors of the morning the shining of the night the sparkle of the airwaves we’re more than we seem

A Thousand Dreams 04:13
lyrics
buy track
A Thousand Dreams I give you a thousand smiles To match a thousand memories To guide you on your way. And a thousand sparks And a thousand stars To light a fire in your heart And a thousand hopes And a thousand dreams Watch over you night and day And a thousand tears And a thousand sleepless nights And my love through the years And as you say goodbye Try out your wings and fly Just remember where you’re from Take every lesson learned Take every scrape and burn Take every song you’ve ever sung And the light in your heart And the spark in your soul Will heat this cold, cold world And the light in your eyes And the smile on your face Will surely change this place Repeat chorus And the light of your life And the passion of desire Will lead you on your way With a thousand hopes And a thousand dreams And my love through the years

Beautiful Damage you’re my favorite hurricane turning thoughts to gold purging all my innocence whoa you’re coming up to hurricane the pressure makes me drop cursing my possessions whoa and the walls they keep on whipping and the words they keep on slipping away from you you’re my only hurricane eyeing me so cold heating innovation whoa I’m the only hurricane wreckage in the shock havok sleeps so prettily whoa and the walls they keep on whipping and the words they keep on slipping away from you Ohhh the beautiful damage damage that you do I tossed you in the hurricane broke you of the mold waited for the secret whoa and the walls they keep on whipping and the words they keep on slipping away from you Ohhh the beautiful damage damage that you do

I Don't Ever 05:18
lyrics
buy track
I Don’t Ever I don’t ever want to lose you In the darkness of the dawn when all is new and promised before the birth of song Oh... I don’t ever want to lose you In the corners of the day where crowds and traffic rule amidst the babble of what we say Oh... Oh, To have it all taken away Oh, with no words left to say I don’t ever want to lose you In the echoes of the evening footsteps all around whispers are flickering Oh... Oh, To have it all taken away Oh, with no words left to say I don’t ever want to lose you In the shadows of the night where memories and dreams collide in the mystery of moonlight Oh, I don’t ever want to lose you

Atomic Bomb 03:04
lyrics

Atomic Bomb I’m beautiful I’m talented I’m clever, chic, and strong I’m a liar I’m a cheater I’m the atomic bomb I’m a bombshell I’m a superstar And you’ll never find the cure For my power and my altitude That makes me so demure I’m a stormcloud I’m a thunder clap To rain on your parade I’ve got style And attitude To put you in your place Humility Is for suckers And honesty For the lame But Love Is for the living And not for Placing blame I’m a kitten Softly sleeping Pretending to be still I’m a predator With my claws drawn Ready for the kill And faking it Isn’t making it It’s a complicated ruse But I believe If I keep this up You’ll never know I’m bruised

Rise Up 05:30
lyrics

Rise Up Another day in this small town Another hope on a summer’s eve And I’ve been thinking that it’s not too late And I’ve been thinking I ought to dream In spring it rained for forty days and forty nights And the flood waters rose to my ears And I didn’t think the mud would ever dry And I didn’t think I’d ever believe Rise up Open your eyes Reach out your hands Lift up your voice Well I’m a dreamer of dreams And I believe in a helping hand And this old town has always held me up Taught me to walk, helped me to stand Chorus I want to walk into the world Head held high There’s too much pain, too much hurt It’s time to open up and fly Don’t let the world tell you, “you can’t” Say it’s too hard Don’t let the truth ever escape Lost in the dark Don’t let the clouds cover your heart Hide you in shame Don’t ever give up, don’t turn away You’ll rise again Another day in my home town Another hope on a summer’s eve And I’ve been thinking that it’s not too late And I’ve been thinking I ought to dream And I’ve been thinking I ought to dream And I’ve been thinking I ought to dream Rise up Open your eyes Reach out your hands Lift up your voice (And walk with me)

Thankful 04:29

Thankful Mostly I just rumble listen to the fog trying not to stumble balancing mostly I’ve been fumbling finding my own way trying not to crumble And I'm here Solid as can be And my fear Won't overwhelm me And it's clear How this life should be With you here Here and I’m thankful Recently I listen To the rhythm of your beats Sensing your position Placing my feet Recently I’m missing Scanning for storms Trying to not be so distant and I’m thankful Actually I’m steering rudder in repair as the sky is clearing waves o’er the bow Actually I’m faithful adhering to the core trying not to be disappearing and I’m thankful Finally I’m seeking finding being found as the grebe is creeping along the sound Finally I’m grasping water through my hands Finally I’m trying and I’m thankful

I've Been Learning 03:41
lyrics

I’ve Been Learning This thing called Love Sears my heart This thing called love Pours it out This thing called love Is an open flame I’m swept away But I’ve been learning That your love Can’t make me whole Can’t chase the clouds And I’ve been learning That your love Is where I'll go So I'm not alone I don’t want To battle you I don’t want To see you cry I don’t want To know how hard I’ve tried What’s left unsaid But I’ve been learning That your love Can’t make me whole Can’t chase the clouds And I’ve been learning That your love Is where I'll go So I'm not alone I move through days Lost and blinded Pushing out the pain I move through days Push the clouds to the rim Wishing for the rain I’ll never know Why You do not call I’ll never know Why you'll never tell I’ll never know Just how you feel What’s lost inside But I’ve been learning That your love Can’t make me whole Can’t chase the clouds And I’ve been learning That your love Is where I'll go So I'm not alone I move through days Lost and blinded Pushing out the pain I move through days Push the clouds to the rim Wishing for the rain and that last kiss left me in the sun and that last kiss is all that’s left and that last kiss keeps me holding on and that last kiss is where I’ll hide

Feel The Rain 05:12
lyrics
buy track
Feel The Rain Thunderstorms ripped across the county last night Although I think I slept through most of it I’m told I closed the windows— Sleepwalking with no recall Thunder and lightning in the distance. With the gentle sound of rain covering all. Feel the rain But proof was evident in the morning Torrential rivers undermined roads and lawns Leaving raw gashes empty Branches down And scattered black pools of water I do not live in the lightning capital of the world And at a distance, it’s so hard to comprehend Feel the rain Shocked by their suddenness and devastation Phone calls filled with unspoken sorrow Tears silent against the receiver Against the inescapable turbulence Splitting in anger and frustration And loss and love Feel the rain Ripped by forces no one can ever grasp Undermined--- How do we prepare for the storms? Lulled to sleep by our own desires And distance... Helpless We pick up the branches Clumsily fill in the gashes And watch the dark empty pools disappear And we cry And I don’t claim to understand this world And I don’t know how to heal your pain Feel the rain Feel the rain Feel my tears Feel your tears Wash me with your rain Wash me in the rain

Fabric of You 03:56
lyrics
buy track
Fabric of You Read to me at night. You can sing my morning rise Watch with me the dawning gold The color changing skies And you touch my cheek The feathers in your hair Your arms catch my breath The thinning of the air Let me love you all the way through Leaving no gaps in this fabric of you. Tell to me your mind open up your universe You are my day. You are my night. You're the orbit of my earth chorus Give me your weary Your tired, aching, down I'll hold you till it hurts no more Until your peace is found

I Am Here, You Are Here 04:02
lyrics

I am Here, You are Here you are here, I am here different places, different years so many smiles, so many tears rooms left behind with treasures near faraway look in your eyes live each day in disguise In your heart you learn to fly reach for the sun through cloudy skies Hold on... I am here, you are here close your eyes, disappear disregard all that you hear holding on to this thin veneer Hold on... reaching out with fingertips don’t let the darkness eclipse whispered kisses from your lips hold on tight before it slips Hold on...
