i can't let you be
cause your beauty won't allow me wrapped in white sheets like an angel from a bedtime story shut out what they say cause your friends are fucked up anyway and when they come around somehow they feel up and you feel down when we were kids we hated things our parents did we listened low to casey kasem's radio show that's when friends were nice to think of them just makes you feel nice the smell of grass in spring and october leaves cover everything have you forgotten how to love yourself? i can't believe all the good things that you do for me sat back in a chair like a princess from a faraway place nobody's nice when you're older your heart turns to ice and shut out what they say they're too dumb to mean it anyway when we were kids we hated things our sisters did backyard summer pools and christmases were beautiful and the sentiment of coloured mirrored ornaments and the open drapes look out on frozen farmhouse landscapes have you forgotten how to love yourself? |

when everything we felt failed
and some music soft in distant sails but it don't sound like it did before then i know i'm left with nothing more than my own soul when pretty pictues face back but your coats aren't hanging on the rack and blue water turns to a place that i can't get to a place that i can't in a room all i feel is the cold that you left through the air all i see is your face full of blame what's left to see what's there to see in the room all i feel is the cold that you left through the air all i see is your face full of blame what's left to see what's there to see what's left to see |

going past golden gate
elementary everyday kids down colorful hill recess and fire drill she likes the side without the heat where the sun don't beat she likes the cooler side of washington street hummingbirds, pigeons and doves hover rooftops above light shine down into the tides over hillsides see where the bridge and mountian meet at the mouth of the sea and where the sailboats live a day and turn away with the purple evening losing our loving hold in the skies flourescent glow she takes her thoughts and cares into the moonlit alley stairs still in my hand i feel the sting the sound of bells ring and the memory of the face never washes away the current evening |

how have you been caroline
living ok home in PA see how the color left from our faces from when, when we were younger just yesterday i was making the reach went for a swim in lover's beach and there i met friends and i neared the bay until i felt sick but you were my friend don't you know how i needed you then i felt nervous when you shook and cried the circles under your eyes made love til you reached the clouds through the ceilings and walls that surround one time you drove through heat and hard rain three hundred miles in the roots of your pain things get so far back in your mind that we don't connect but you were my friend at the turn of my life's events i felt weak in the hold of your soul and your blood-red eyes even more but the feelings that stay with you now get lost over time somehow |

Long distance runaround
Long time waiting to feel the sound I still remember the dream there I still remember the time you said goodbye Did we really tell lies Letting in the sunshine Did we really count to one hundred Cold summer listening Hot colour melting the anger to stone I still remember the dream there I still remember the time you said goodbye Did we really tell lies Did we really count to one hundred |

she shadows me in the mirror
she never leaves on the light and some things that i say to her they just don't seem to bite it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up she tricks me into thinking that i can't believe my eyes that i wait for her forever but she never does arrive it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up she says to leave it to me and everything will be allright she says to leave it to me and everything will be allright she's always out making pictures she's always out making scenes she's always out the window when it comes to making dreams it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up it's all mixed up |

i can't make anything
of why the brightest light fades or how you slept a sleepless slumber and through the rhythm of the timeless season and you are the dark on my soul and it's your love that i steal and you're my cuts that won't close and this i'm certain and this i'm certain and this i'm certain i don't see anything through all your worries and the worst in people and your'e the builder of your own high temple and that's the magic of your mind and you're the reason that i'm down but you're the promise that i found and you're all that i got who's the meanest and who's a genius and who's mine and from the bed you lay and wonder and from the morning come like thunder it's the downfall of your time and you're the dark of our home but still the home that i feel won't let up or let go and this i'm certain and this i'm certain |

You'd think that people would have
had enough of silly love songs. I look around and I see it isn't so Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs, and what's wrong with that? How I'd like to know 'Cause here I go again. I love you I love you I love you I love you I can't explain the feeling's plain to me. Now, can't you see? she gave me more, she gave it all to me What's wrong with that? How I'd like to know 'Cause here I go again. How can I tell you about my loved one? How can I tell you about my loved one? How can I tell you about my loved one? |

she comes apart at the seams
cause she never dreams as she lays up awake cause her feelings ache and the one thing she found as she gazed at the sea was that she lost her faith her faith in me and in the early morning i can't make up a thing and a barely can play i don't like to sing so i picked up my brush painted blue guitar and i ripped off the chords from 'bron y' aur' so i played her a song but the timing was wrong poor choices of chords and the words were forced and the one thing that i found as i gazed at the sea was that she lost all hope all hope in me as she gazed at the sea was that she lost her faith her faith in me |
