Insane Now
04:24
|
|||
And we'll lay in the sand, and we'll spoil the sky
Holy shit what a view, wipe the dirt from your eye
And the road has a voice, the most beautiful song
As we crash in my car we'll be singing along
The time is so short now, baby
Are you sure you're ok?
No it won't be long now, honey
Is there something you're needing me to say?
Hey now, hold me down before I float away
It's all insane now, is there something you're needing me to say?
'Cause you are the sun, I look and I look away
It's all insane now, is there something you're needing me to say?
And we'll sink in the sea when there's nothing left to do
I stare to the night as it's staring at you
And we both grab ahold of the love and it's chains
We don't read between the lines, and we don't feel no pain
The pressure is on now, baby
Am I slipping away
Nothing's for sure now, honey
Is there something you're needing me to say?
Hey now, tie me down before I float away
It's all insane now, is there something you're needing me to say?
'Cause you are the sun, I look and I look away
It's all insane now, is there something you're needing me to say?

Life Of The Party
03:19
|
|||
Open the tomb, look into my living room
See you soon out there on the avenue
Life of the party when I'm lost under a blue wave
If I'm being honest I probably wouldn't want it any other way
Life of the party, let me hide in the light of the stage
Children playing in the street, I was them they were never me
Boots click time on the cobblestone and I walk back to my nativity
Life of the party when I'm lost under a blue wave
If I'm being honest I probably wouldn't want it any other way
Life of the party, let me die in the light of the day
Victorian sunglasses over eyes of ashes
Getting wasted in the shade under birch bark branches
The sky turns violet, I life quiet
A snow white kind of moon over my head
Life of the party when I'm lost under a blue wave
If I'm being honest I probably wouldn't want it any other way
Life of the party

Water
03:24
|

Drifting daylight, maybe you were right
Here we stand, I wind the clock with you
Back to summer sky, summer's end, we can't go back to when
The night was young, we were young then too
Still it feels like home
And I can't go back alone
Still it feels like home
When I'm with you on the ice cold water
I'm with you in the red hot sand
I'm with you on the ice cold water
Your heart inside my hand
Clear as day, thick as blood, we'll always have this love
As sure as the sky, stars and moon
Oh no, don't cry. The sun also rises
To my eye it rises far too soon.
Still it feels like home
And I can't go back alone
Still it feels like home
When I'm with you on the ice cold water
I'm with you in the red hot sand
I'm with you on the ice cold water
My heart inside your hand

Over The Headlights
03:43
|
|||
Somewhere over the headlights, gazing into the sky
My love lost the starlight, it just won't seem to shine
I've got highway fever at low tide as I slow to the roadside
Roundup's rising in farm land and the horizon is buried alive
I was just a kid in a Freud Crown Vic, sitting with an idle motor
Now I'm on the outside looking in, with my red lips turning over
Landlords reign over darkness when the autumn begins
Hands thrashing into the margins, like how the water rushes every inch
I run on the sand in silence, marram bows in the wind
I never made any good plans, but I figured I'd make the rent
I was just a kid in a Freud Crown Vic, sitting with an idle motor
Now I'm on the outside looking in with my red lips turning over
And when they dug a blade into the Atlantic I was working at the mall for the summer
I try to forget it and take it to the limit, get my red lips turning over
I should have told you I love you so much sooner, I was too scared of another suffer
I try to take it easy, give you everything in me, get my red lips turning over
and over again

Any Colour
03:21
|

She could rain any colour, blue and gold
Across the face of a mountain, any face in any crowd
She could rain any colour, pink and green
Any bird that would frighten any sun that could be seen
I could drink every drink of yours that there was to drink
I thought every thought that I never thought I would think
Thanks to all of the laughter, thanks to all of the beer
Thanks to all of my drunk thoughts that I conjured you here
Still I find someway around it
Searching for the door, I thought that I had missed it
But it never had existed

Middle Of June
02:12
|
|||
I couldn't do any dances but I should have tried
When I'm looking for answers, will you come on the line?
Sunshine's travelling on,
another blue jay has gone back in time
to before you fell and the church bell chimed
At the end of the eighties I put a scar on my eye
You should be doing it lately, you should be the rolling tide.
Sunshine's travelling on,
another blue jay has gone back in time
to before you fell and the church bell chimed
Sunshine's travelling on,
another blue jay has gone back in time
to the middle of June when you were fine

Greener Was The Grass
04:06
|
|||
Knew everything there was to know
Gathered my disciples when the sky began to snow
Preaching to masses though the microphone had broke
Took a number when the skin was due to shed
Whistled past the graveyard of the words that I had said
Greener was the grass when the old tune had left my head
Put our fists back on the shelf
Showed up to the battle though no foe had rung the bell
No one there was evil save the infantry themselves
Another suffer left to leave, another vision to unsee
Darkness will adore you when the daylight's but a dream
Nearer was the ear I had to bend
Shorter was the time left to be spent
Greener was the grass when the old tune had left my head

String Band
00:43
|
|||
And though the time we can see through
The past does what it wants to do
We tumbled through the seas to yesterday
Though singing it is oh-so fun
String Band already wrote this one
We tumbled cross the seas and through the waves to yesterday

Yesterday's Rain
03:35
|
|||
You followed me in my daydream, your face in black and white,
Behind the light. I can't sleep but god I tried
Every hour grows colder with every new grey cloud
I listen for the mouse in the drywall of sound.
Summer delay. When you went out I did the same.
Morning came while I was under yesterday's rain
I'm a latecomer turning the record over, but I try to leave
side B til you're beside me - knees on top of knees
Summer delay. When you went out I did the same.
Morning came while I was under yesterday's rain
When we met on your door step ... the weight of your eyes,
Never closed never wide. They pushed back into mine.
Summer delay. When you went out I did the same.
Morning came while I was under yesterday's rain

Sink In The Sea
04:12
|
|||
See you at the station through the window's glare,
Will you ever care to look up at me?
Saw you in the basement where the liquor flows
Where my lover goes into a dream
How do I contain it as you sit across from me
And the space that sits between us
begging to be filled inches closer still?
Then sing along with me
Deep and wide at the other side, a heart don't mend for free
Would we die if you ever tried to hold on tight to me?
Saw you in the country yelling sailor songs
As we sing along, you turn to me
My dear boy I love you, til the love it ends
Hold your heart and then sink in the sea
Picture my amazement as the blood flows through the trees
And the globe of snow that holds us
Shatters everywhere
Did you ever care to sing along with me?
Deep and wide at the other side, hold on tight to me
Still I try as the winds whip by, I said sing along with me
See these eyes at the other side, then hold on tight to me
While your mother's there, did you ever care enough for me?

Trying To Fill The Day
04:16
|
|||
Ibuprofen, fame and fortune
Your drug store cowboy gets all the action
Clouds are quick and full of passion
I write the script for my delayed reaction
Trying to fill the day without looking at my face
I'm afraid I'm a fake
What the winter takes no summer can reclaim
I'm trying to fill the day
Missed the check-in, I'm disconnected
Hotel calls the house defective
I'm losing you, that's the message
I'm coming down like human wreckage
Trying to fill the day without looking at my face
I'm afraid I'm a fake
What the winter takes no summer can reclaim
I'm trying to fill the day
Tomorrow clearly can't complain
I am clearly much to vain
Watch the ashes rise and settle again
It all flashes by, only you remain
Trying to fill the day without looking at my face
I'm afraid I'm a fake
What the winter takes no summer can reclaim
I'm trying to fill the day
