Questions flew
And words were hurled into the air And when the smoke had cleared I saw you lying there I used my words like bullets in a gun To pick your ego off like skeet flung In the gallery of fools Too many words come from my mouth I wish would remain unsaid Oh I've had to eat them all and now I must confess It was a silly thing to say to you It was a silly thing to say to you I know We know |

Standing in the middle of a forest
Basking in the glorious autumn Watching the leaves as they change From green from green to orange yellow and brown I'm falling down I'm falling down My emotions are deceiving me Blinding my eyes from my nature Robbing my quiet solitude Of tranquility of tranquility I'm falling down I'm falling down Oh let these falling leaves cover me Let me sink into the ground Never be found |

And I'll do it over, over and over again Let me, let me know just how you love me And we'll spin around again in this field of flowers we're in I wish to quote from Whitman now To show the way I feel, I feel about you Oh about you Because it's a subtle electric fire you light in me Every time I see you So let's dance again in this field of flowers we're in These lyrics are so frivolous they really have no meaning But I wrote them for you And anywhere I would be with you No matter where, but for now we're here So let's spin around again in this field of flowers we're in Let's spin again in this field of flowers we're in |

History merely repeats itself
Nothing in this world is truly new The sea churns as it feeds from the river at it's mouth The wind blows across the land from north to south The laboring man spends his life getting nowhere Meaningless It's all meaningless All my life and labor is foolish And now I don't have a reason anymore Come now be merry drink your drink Devour your feast don't stop to think Tomorrow you could be gone far away So gather ye rosebuds while he may Tomorrow you could like in a silent grave Pawing the dust and awaiting the end of time Fear your God this is all I know Meaningless It's all meaningless All my life and labor is foolish And now I don't have a reason A reason to live anymore |

Mysteries unfolding quickly before my eyes
In a way I saw the world in one night Without even leaving Without even leaving the room Golden cymbals catching light The flowing veils of dancers in the night Put me in a swoon Beating drums and violins so mystical and freeing These things that I'm seeing They're so wonderful Oh the world is such a big place And you have redeemed it You have redeemed it No reason to be afraid You have redeemed it You have redeemed us all Culture after culture flash before my eyes The semi closed mind is now evident Help me to remember this world is yours You gave your life to bring the wayward back to you The wayward back to you |

Tell me father are you riding on
The fictional bus up to heaven above? Do you listen to the angels on the outskirts Have they persuaded you? Oh tell me father Perhaps you have been persuaded before I just want to know where your body and soul Roam tonight But I know I'll never know Until I pass away to the next life I know I'll never know Where your soul roams tonight Until I reach the afterlife Kneeling in this church of stone On this pew reading my prayer book "We commend to your Lord All the souls who have died." As you walk in the garden Is the grass broken glass on your feet? I want to believe when I think how I wasted my chance And mother I pray That it would happen someday we would find you Where we're going |

These things which I so often wonder
This need to create myself Frustration forgotten through slumber It's there when I wake Defeated before I rise I'd pull myself out of his mire If I could collect my strength Or muster an ounce of desire Finding the words, and making them mine Is there somewhere I could seperate this feeling from memory Disconnect myself from me? Desire inside to mistreat you It pushes words out of my mouth This cyclical pattern I feed you The back and forth, and up and down But still here you are Behind this veil of pious revelation I'll close my eyes and look for worth inside I don't deserve you Relinquishing hope for the future I try not to hate it so But you are a bridge to those memories I try to forget, if you only knew Is there somewhere to occupy emotion A room to keep my rage away from you? Just tell me when these hopeless days are over I'll open my eyes and see my new sun rise I don't deserve this |

Yes, we should like to see a burning bush-type sign. But anything would be fine. We're all told to dance but we never picked the tune. Hanging like puppets they feed us from bent steel spoons. But we're sealing our lips for the someday when the needle and the vinyl play All the songs of the pain, songs that explain all our circles and strains.

Lightly, beside the green, green grass. Swing, swing, swing the spinning step. You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress. Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. Kiss me down by the broken tree house. Swing me high upon its hanging tire. Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat. We'll take the trail marked on your father's map. Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. Kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. So kiss me. So kiss me. So kiss me. |

--- Sixpence None The Richer
It has gotten to my head. Permeates the path I tread. But I tread, I'm moving on in a new and happy song. I can sing about the night, how my tunnel without light Led me to the other side where the sky is blue. It's all I can do to not let them ruin me. I will not let them ruin me. I will not let them ruin me again. There is fire inside the tree. Flames of knowing kissing me. I have waited long to see a sign from you. It's all I can do to not let them ruin me. I will not let them ruin me. I will not let them ruin me again. |

My life is plagued
By mistakes, broken love, slaps in the face. But I'm trying to care, to dare to embrace your face. Hug him like a brother. Kiss her like a sister. Let it be my mother for now. I want to find where the maid in the street Is pouring her wine. I heard she takes you in and gives you the words You need said. If you'll be her brother, She'll kiss you like a sister. She'll even be your mother for now. Hug him like a brother. Kiss her like a sister. Let it be my mother. Let it be my father. I will be her brother. Kiss her like a sister. Come and be my mother forever. |

The Lines of my earth
so brittle, unfertile, and ready to die I need a drink but the well has gone dry And we in the habit of saying the same things all over again, for the money we shall make This is the last song that I'll write 'til you tellme otherwise. And it's because I just dont feel it This is the last song 'til you tell me otherwise. And it's because I just don't feel it anymore It should be our time This fertile youth's black soil is ready for rain The harvest is high but the well has gone dry And they in the habit of saying the same things all over again, about the money we shall make This is the last song that I'll write 'til you tell me otherwise And it's because I just don't feel it This is the last song 'til you tell me otherwise And it's because I just don't feel it anymore This is the last song that I'll write 'til you tell me otherwise.

Sits joy like ahappy child In the middle of this death I must cry with life for a while And death is great We are in his keep, laughing and whole When we feel deep in life He dares weep, deep in our soul And you are gone But you are perfect now And you like to dress You wear dresses that never fade And you are gone (my mother cried she said you?d gone away) But you are perfect now (and now a part of me must do the same) And you like to dress (but I know I must be thankful) You wear dresses that never fade You wear dresses that never fade |

Amber liquid wetting winecups to the stem
Spilling drops to glisten on the earth like little gems That myself mistook so foolishly when I stopped to steal a drink Of the liquid amber melting in my eyes, in my hands, and on my lips Earthy blankets full of golden lint and thread I see the children play as I am on my way again To another place; I'm sorry to say that we Blurred the picket fence Still the children play, they wrap themselves in the middle To sip sunlight and drink innocence Hey today Beauty is my healer Hey today I'm gonna steal her |

Each time I saw the tide Take our love letters From the sand You made a vow That you Would always be true But somehow that vow Meant nothing to you Now my broken heart aches With every wave that breaks Over love letters in the sand All the days like today We pass the time away Writing love letters in the sand |

You can't see my eyes
You can't see my eyes They don't see yours Hear me when I say I don't mind at all It's the rain that I hear coming Not a stranger or a ghost It's the quiet of a storm approaching That I fear the most It's the pain that I hear coming The slightest crystal tear, drops to the ground In silence, when my love is near Darling, when did you fall? When was it over? Darling when? When did you fall? When was it over? It's marching through my door now The stony cold of lonesome A bell tolls for my heart and then my lonesome song begins It's marching through my door now The stony cold of lonesome A bell tolls for my heart and now my lonesome song begins Darling, when did you cry? I couldn't hear you Darling when? When did you cry? I couldn't hear you I suppose it is the price of falling in love I suppose it is the price of falling in love It's the rain that I hear coming Not a stranger, not a ghost Of the quiet of a storm approaching That I fear the most It's the pain that I hear coming The slightest crystal tear drops to the ground In silence when my love is near It's marching through my door now the stony cold of lonesome A bell tolls for my heart and now my lonesome song will end Darling when did we fall? When was it over? Darling when? When did we fall? When was it over? I suppose it is the price of falling in love I fear that it's the price of falling in love |

the flame that is turning my smoldering ash into a bird so stay close my brother I couldn't stand the loss you are the bridge of action I need you to help me cross I need you to help me *so when you break my arms I'll take hold of you I know your heart is a hand that takes hold of me my hand that is breaking is the hand that is making all the dead things in me grow a gift of a holy loss this burning at the dross *repeat why do you set out to break the one thing the one thing I have to give its hard to believe that I could, that I should begin again but I know your heart is a hand so when I break your arms you'll take hold of me you know my heart is a hand that takes hold of you so when you break my arms I'll take hold of you I know your heart is a hand that takes hold of me so when you break my arms I'll take hold of you I know your heart is a hand that takes hold of me |

Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
Lightly, beside the green, green grass. Swing, swing, swing the spinning step. You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress. Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. Kiss me down by the broken tree house. Swing me high upon its hanging tire. Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat. We'll take the trail marked on your father's map. Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. Kiss me beneath the milky twilight. Lead me out on the moonlit floor. Lift your open hand. Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance, silver moon's sparkling. So kiss me. So kiss me. So kiss me. So kiss me. |

the rub of love that we don't always fit quite hand in glove but we live inside of a mystery and my heart often fails to contain and I know that words are not enough when I think of all the endless love that you give to me in my time of need boy it's high time these words will say ask for my hand you know I'll give it and if you're cold I give you warmth and I don't care if it's unfair 'cause I would sacrifice myself now that I know the only thing that matters us us us us it's hard to say what road we're travelling down sometimes it leads us to some awful towns but we somehow keep both our hands and feet on the floorboard and the steering wheel ask for my hand you know I'll give it and if you're cold I give you warmth and I don't care if it's unfair 'cause I would sacrifice myself now that I know the only thing that matters us us us us there was a time I lost my eyes there was a day I wasted too much of your golden light ask for my hand you know I gave it and if you're cold I give you warmth and I don't care if it's unfair 'cause I would sacrifice myself now that I know the only thing that matters you're the only thing that matters you're the only thing that matters us us us us us us us us us us us us |

It's not time to make a change
just relax and take it easy You're still young that's your fault there's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down if you want to you can marry Look at me, I am old but I'm happy I was once like you are now and I know that it's not easy to be calm when you've found something going on But take your time, think a lot think of everything you've got For you'll still be here tomorrow but your dreams may not How can I try to explain when I do he turns away again It's always been the same same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go It's not time to make a change just sit down and take it slowly You're still young that's your fault there's so much you have to go through Find a girl, settle down if you want to you can marry Look at me, I am old but I'm happy All the times that I cried keeping all the things I knew inside it's hard but it's harder to ignore it If they were right, I'd agree but it's them you know not me but there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go |
