Don’t be surprised You’ve got love on your side Don’t be confused When it hurts sometimes Cause if you love just right Feels like you got so much to lose But do you really think that’s true? You think everyone sees you like a thief? They’re wondering how you got your precious jewels But maybe that’s just yourself you see Don’t be a fool in a fool’s game Playing it cool is such a cruel shame To let a good thing die Like the night swallows the sun You coulda kept it alive You coulda told someone Now you’re just the lonely one Don’t be surprised You’ve got love on your side Don’t be confused When it hurts sometimes Cause if you love just right Feels like you got so much to lose

Cave Dancer 04:43
Maybe in time I’ll get used to the smoke Fillin’ up my lungs Kissing blackened tongues In the middle of the night I hear the hissing of fires The screeching of tires Where you gonna run? Does it really make you feel better? When you got someone to blame Are you really gonna let your anger Run around in this beautiful beautiful place? Give her the time She’s got nothing to lose She’s tired of being the muse In your sad story Girls on the side Watching the slow dance boys They’re makin’ all that noise And gettin’ all the glory Does it really make you feel better? When you got someone to blame What was all that talk about together? Cause all I can see is your shadow Dancing in the flame Cause all I can see is your shadow Dancing in the flame Cause all I can see is your shadow Dancing in the flame Cause all I can see is your shadow Cave dancer (4x) Does it really make you feel better? When you got someone to blame Are you really gonna let your anger Run around in this beautiful beautiful beautiful place? Cave dancer (many times)

Don’t go cryin’ For the first chill of winter The flame ain’t dying Just because the leaves start to wither Hold on to each other In the fading light Fall asleep bound together And the fire burns through the night I can’t tell you With any words I know Nothing’s ever really brand new And none of the good shit is for show I heard of somewhere In no time or space How does it feel to be nowhere? A nobody, in a nameless place You can call it heaven But heaven ain’t free You could say forever Or just let it be just you and me What else do you need? Cool water Sweet fruits in the summer Cool water Sweet fruits in the summer Cool water Sweet fruits in the summertime Cool water Sweet fruits to ease my mind Cool water Sweet fruits in the summer

Two Hands 04:29
Soft whispers In my dreams tonight Cool shivers In the cold blue light Reflections of my faces In China glass I found my Glow Dying to feel this way again The world turns in my two hands Two hands (4x) Cruel pleasure Running through my veins Careless leisure Holding all my pain The morning birds are bathing The kettle whistling screaming Go Go feel the sun on your skin Glow Shine on the world you live in Feel it with your two hands Two hands (8x) Running through broken fences Rushing my weaker senses Oh Dying to feel something again No Calling calling up all my friends Dialing with my two hands

Oh my darling Come and see The birds are singing Over the city Oh my darling Can you believe? Bells are ringing And the hills are green Nights so quiet I forget to breathe Facing silence And my own heartbeat Free my dreams Oh my friends Wish I could kiss you It’s a cruel reminder Of how much I miss you Oh my sweet friends Lovely faces See you round the bend In softer places Night so quiet You can hear the trees Dancing in disguise Swaying in the cool breeze Free my dreams

Sad Eyes 03:40
Show up late and you’re feeling loose You did your hair and you shined your shoes Should be easy in a house of friends Everybody asking “how you been?” Sad eyes Lookin’ at the sunrise You stayed up all night You waited too long To tell someone And now your body is tired And your mind is gone Try to walk through the room in a spin Everybody whispering let me in Feel like the flowers following the sun Petals drop slowly one by one Sad eyes Lookin’ at the sunrise You stayed up all night You waited too long To tell someone And now your body is tired And your mind is gone C’mon baby make it last all night Take me all the way to the morning light
7.
You say hello Is for everyone Just like falling rain Or the laughing sun But you’re so good At feeling bad It’s so romantic But I can’t get down with that Put your headband on And hit the scene Get people on your side Being silent and mean It’s a quiet con It’s another fad Mixing love and fear No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that I can’t get down with that Cities fall And people run Fires burn Block out the sun We all look the same In a cheap white mask No one wants to breathe the blame And I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down with that No I can’t get down

So Wild 04:33
Lookin’ out on this wild country Under that sea of stars Paint it over with a maze of concrete So we can drive our noisy cars You say you wanna go out and wander You say there’s so much to see Have you ever tried to sit and ponder Over nothing particularly? So wild You wander like the wind is blowing Oh child You’re talkin’ like you know where you’re going No sign of slowing Marvel at the magic of nature Burns like fire in colonial eyes Imagine all the things you could make her Take a little piece as your prize Yeah and put it on the family mantle Above a fire burning warm and bright Sing the glory of your recent rambles And bid everybody goodnight So wild You wander like the wind is blowing Oh child You’re talkin’ like you know where you’re going No sign of slowing down Everyone’s gone home No one to talk to now Go to sleep in a house of memories And hope they’ll keep you warm somehow You wander like the wind is blowing Oh child You’re talking like you know where you’re going No sign of slowing down No sign of slowing down

Lookin’ out the back door What do I see I see an angry mama Comin’ after me Flowers hang their heads now It hasn’t rained in years She says “I’m comin’ after you boy Cause I’m all out of tears Yeah I’m all out of tears” Keep my windows wide tell the birds I’m still singing All of the time in my mind keeps me alive I’m still thinking Knockin’ at my front door There’s a letter for me Says you gotta keep runnin’ If you wanna stay free Ah but where am I goin’ That’s so hard to see She says “don’t’ think so much You’re comin’ right back to me Right back to me You’re comin’ right back to me Right back to me” Keep my windows wide tell the birds that I’m still singing All of the time in my mind keeps me alive I’m still thinking I’m still thinking Oh I’m still thinking Still thinking….

To The Moon 03:10
I’d go halfway to the moon To find me something that kills the blue But baby why go into space? Our love’s right here so let’s just stay And see what we can do With a little love Between me and you See what we’re dreaming of I can’t believe my eyes It breaks my heart in two How cruel we are sometimes And what we put ourselves through I’d go halfway to the moon To find me something that kills the blue But baby why go into space? Our love’s right here so let’s just stay And see what we can find In our delicate hearts And our dangerous minds That wanna tear us apart Into a million pieces All fallin’ down like rain Drops dripping and weaving To find the ocean again I can’t believe my eyes Yeah it breaks my heart in two How cruel we are sometimes I’d go halfway to the sun Just to get away from the mess we done But baby that’s just a cheap escape Our love’s right here that we need today

Blue Dream 05:45
Gonna keep on tryin’ To get closer to you Get inside your mind Feel the things you’re going through See the things you want me to I watch the time go into the past Spend all my time trying to make it last But it goes on and on Like a stranger in a familiar scene Like the slow turns in a long stream I just keep wandering through this blue dream Half asleep and crying In the middle of the night Another dream about dying What’s the use in turning on the light? How you gonna make dying right? I watch the time go into the past Spend all my time trying to make it last But it goes on and on Like a stranger in a familiar scene Like the slow turns in a long stream I just keep wandering through this blue dream I got a suntan Lying on the hourglass sands I got a suntan Mmmmmm I watch the time go into the past Spend all my time trying to make it last But it goes on and on Like a stranger in a familiar scene Like the slow turns in a long stream I just keep wandering through this blue dream
