Up in the morning watch the north wind rise
Bringin' fire down from the skies
Hey, we got a long way to go
So keep on lovin' and make it slow

We're goin' home
Won't be long, hearin' my song
That lovin' you ain't
Never done no wrong

Well, night time falls like the crack of doom
Fills the sky with a shinin' moon
Silver siren just got to please
Well, fuel me with lovin' down in my knees

We're goin' home
Won't be long, hearin' my song
That lovin' you ain't
Never done no wrong

Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
If you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more

Well, up in the mornin' watch the north wind rise
Bringin' fire down from the skies
Hey, we got a long way to go
So keep on lovin' and make it slow

We're goin' home
Won't be long, hearin' my song
That lovin' you ain't
Never done no wrong

Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
And baby, well, if you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more

Well, babe be mine one more time
Run your hand down my spine
And mama, well, if you say we've got to go
Take some time for just one more

Sure a lot smaller everyday
Wonder why we feel this way
You don't know that I've got nothing left to say

I've been blown across the water
Like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel

I feel that longing loud and clear
Dead end streets and I lay here
When you're flying you've got nothing left to fear

'Less you're gonna cross the water
Like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel

Winter wind keeps blowing through the trees
But life keeps breathing gaily as you please
Hey now, silver birches lying by the road
Branches lined against the winter snow

We left the shelter yesterday
After we had played some way
You can find that I've got nothing left to say

'Less you're gonna cross the water
Like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel

I've been blown cross the water
Like a ship ain't got no sail
That ain't no way to feel

Flowers today bloomin' by the pathway
Linin' the edge of tomorrow's grave
Bright shinin' way, livin' in the shadows
Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave

Down in the mine, circled 'round a diamond
Serpent of your expectations sleeps a nervous dream
Circled so fine like a velvet palace
Whiles away the passing hours, not being what he seems

Then he creeps into the night speeding up like fire flight
How he moves into the forest floor
Send away the pace of time, leave behind the lonely mine
And the diamond silent on the floor

We cannot stay by the crystal mountain
The serpent of dreams has left his shadow lair
The diamond remains brilliant in its cavern
No one to see and no one left to care

The serpent's friends have come and gone
Down the hills, they're movin' on
Through the lakes and forests and the dale

They will find tomorrow's rise
Brings them all the bluest skies
Frees the lonesome banshee and his wail

Flowers today bloomin' by the pathway
Linin' the edge of tomorrow's grave
Bright shinin' way, livin' in the shadows
Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave
Tryin' to be the master of tomorrow's slave

Daily things fall off like water,
falling down like summer rain;
We see each other in confusion;
Wonder why we came today.
Sittin' lonely in our prison,
lookin' out for ways to sail;
What we'd be without confusion,
in our less uncommon way.
Through your hair across my eyes,
the twilight shafts in soft surprise;
Reminds me once again how nice,
it is to be with you.

I used to think, wherever I wandered,
Nothing would ever, ever come to woe;
But that's all gone now and I don't worry;
What's the future for me and my friends;
Well, I just don't know.
Cause living is with us until it is gone;
Once it has left us, the believers don't know;
But I'm still alive now and I don't worry;
When I go down, don't let me go slow!
If love was a word that no one could follow;
It was a message that was written in air;
I'd rather be lost now, than following nothing;
Than feeling and thinking, unable to care.

I've waited all my lifetime for a moment like today
Our love is really real and really here to stay
And now I know what's happening to start anew
I've been living lately just because of you
People on the sidewalks of the city pass me by
They don't know how high we fly
Now I know I've found, winter all around
It fills the sounds of smiling from the heavens to the ground
Takes a long time to be free, I want you there with me
Don't wanna live my life away without you
That kind of living now just won't do
There's been too much wasted time feeling blue
In the morning when you rise that sparkle in your eyes
Reminds me that I'm living just for you
Don't wanna live my life away without you
That kind of living now just won't do
There's been too much wasted time feeling blue
In the morning when we rise that sparkle in your eyes
Reminds me that I'm living just for you
And in the morning when we rise that sparkle in your eyes
Reminds me that I'm living just for you

(Jorma Kaukonen)
Winter's been a long, long time
Summer's here again
I've been trying to make you mine
Since I don't know when
Way your soul can let you fly
Makes me love you more
Spirit flowing into mine
What I'm living for
So don't hold back little baby
When I reach out to you
I'm doing my best to bring you 'round
Swing you into view
So I can better see your face
And you can look at mine
And we can feel each other move
Together down the line
One more time I'm asking you
Let this moment be
All our lives can intertwine
Till eternity
Please don't let your pride run free
Make the past go by
There's a place out there for us
If we only try
With what we got together now
Rest ain't hard to do
You can't see it ain't no jive
All my love for you

Well I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
Well I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone
You gonna miss your mama from rolling in your arms

Well I know my baby he's bound to love me some
Well I know my baby he's bound to love me some
He throws his arms around me like a circle round the sun

Well I laid down and I tried to take my rest
I laid down and I tried to take my rest
But my mind it just kept wandering like some wild geese in the west

I'm going down the road where I get better care
I'm going down the road where I get better care
I believe I'll go babe, I just don't feel welcome here

Just as sure as the bird fly in the sky above
Just as sure as the bird fly in the sky above
Life ain't worth living if you ain't with the man you love

The sun's gonna shine in my back door some day
The sun's gonna shine in my back door some day
The wind's gonna rise and blow my blues away

To love you baby, it's easy as falling off a log
To love you baby, it's easy as falling off a log
Wanna be your baby but I sure won't be your dog

(Jorma Kaukonen)
I feel your shimmering eyes into my soul
And your life is all around my time, now don't you know?
Every time your sunrise drives my night away
It makes my lifetime soar in circles
Like the swallows wheeling in the day
Now our time can start to run
The hourglass has just begun
Life was meant for having fun
As we were meant to be
chorus:
I've been living blind in one-eyed land
Among those kings I thought were grand
Till time had opened up my eyes
And there I found, to my surprise
That life without you
Was empty as a nest in winter light
Strolling in the garden
Sunshine on a California day
With you by my side
The tears we've cried have dried and gone away
The darkness of the northland
In wintertime has all began to run
Through the deltas of a passing sorrow
Now that you and I are really one
Now we're flying down the way
Where all our hopes have time to stay
And we can marvel at the time
That floats us in its path
chorus (x2)

In this world I'm living in I see the light
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right
Morning came on slowly pushing back the night
It's good times now that I can see the light
On this road I'm walking on I see my way
Paradise I'm living for each and every day
'Bout the crossroads of the past, nothing more to say
It's good times now but we can see our way
In this sea I'm moving through, feel my life complete
With the one I'm living for time is, oh, so sweet
Feeling us together, living in the bright
It's good times now, we can see the light
In this world I'm living in I see the light
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right
Morning came on slowly pushing back the night
It's good times now that we can see the light

In this world I'm living in I see the light
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right
Morning came on slowly pushing back the night
It's good times now that I can see the light
On this road I'm walking on I see my way
Paradise I'm living for each and every day
'Bout the crossroads of the past, nothing more to say
It's good times now but we can see our way
In this sea I'm moving through, feel my life complete
With the one I'm living for time is, oh, so sweet
Feeling us together, living in the bright
It's good times now, we can see the light
In this world I'm living in I see the light
Sins are gone, now I know what is wrong and right
Morning came on slowly pushing back the night
It's good times now that we can see the light

Well, on this morning
Saw them coming across fields far away
Said I've been looking all night long
Come for you today

I looked up all around
[Incomprehensible] and I don't know
Lots of things I got to do
So I don't wanna go

Well, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
Lots of things I got to do
Living is much too slow

This time when the demon calls
Gonna look the other way
See the clock keeps moving
There's too much left to say

The moon is sinking slowly in
The raven's flying low
Lots of things I got to do
So I don't wanna go

Well, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
Lots of things I got to do
Living is much too slow

The singing rain guard calls to me
Tells me how to fly
Angel slips between the trees
Reaches for the sky

Imagination spins me 'round
Wind begins to blow
Lots of things I got to do
I don't wanna go

Well, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
Lots of things I got to do
Living is much too slow

Morning rises slowly
And reaches in the sky
The angel from the forest
Just seemed to pass me by

[Incomprehensible]
Life began to show
There are lots of things I got to do
So I don't wanna go

Well, I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go
I got, baby, lots to do
Living is much too slow

How long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

Thought I heard a whistle and I think I see a train
Deep in my heart there is an aching pain
Said how long, how long, baby how long?

Well look down them tracks and feeling so bad
Lost the best woman that a poor man ever had
How long, well how long baby, how long?

Well how long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

How long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

How long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

Thought I heard a whistle and I think I see a train
Deep in my heart there is an aching pain
Said how long, how long, baby how long?

Well look down them tracks and feeling so bad
Lost the best woman that a poor man ever had
How long, well how long baby, how long?

Well how long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

How long baby, how long has that evening train been gone?
It's been gone since that blood red sun went down

(Jorma Kaukonen, Jack Casady)
Well, nickel is a nickel, I said, dime is a dime
I need a new gal, she won't mind
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, I said, must I hesitate?
The eagle on the dollar says "in God we trust"
You say you want a man
You wanna see that dollar first
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, I said, must I hesitate?
Well, If the river was whiskey, said, I was a duck
You know I'd swim to the bottom
Lord, and never come up
Tell me how long
Well, rocks in the ocean, said, fish in the sea
Knows you mean the world to me
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, Lord, must I hesitate?
Well, the hesitation stalker's got them hesitation shoes
You know, Lord, I got them hesitation blues
Tell me how long do I have to wait?
Can I get you now, Lord, must I hesitate?
Said, can I get you now, how long must I hesitate?
