How you found me out I still never understand, Thoughts you can't take with you when you go. You were waving flags that bare the colors Of your love I didn't know: Orange for the vineyards, Blue is for the rivers, Green goes like a hillside covered now, White is not surrender Despite what you've been told; It's clouds of hope That fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now.
One time we met, you were outside Floating in the forest. I placed my stigmata On your hands. Little flowers that you have sown Show people you have known that I am love and Fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now.
And fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now.
My room has a big white bed Pictures on the mirrors Books that last a year Everything but sleep Don't you know?
Nothing won't fit under there The Dowmaker's ghost A heavenly host Everything but sleep Don't you know? Everything but sleep Where does it go? Everything but sleep On it goes...
If it weren't for you I could be anywhere I'd rather be here Don't you know?
Now that I know I'll never feel the same way Everything but sleep Don't you know? Everything but sleep On it goes On it goes...
Can you hear the ringing of the bell tower Counting off the days we can't replace I would like to think it's not that way All the songs that find you in the city Pull you from your bedroom to the streets Pushing all your sadness underneath
There's a song I've been singing All these years as they pass There's a lot of big questions I never ask There's a lot of questions never asked
Consider the lillies of the valleys Neither do they toil or they spin Still a quiet hand is watching over them I became a prodigal and left here My petals out like windmills in the air Waiting for a breese For any sign of care
There's a song I've been singing All these years as they pass There's a lot of big questions I never ask There's a lot of questions never asked
Dream, are you a dreamer? Are you a dreamer? Do you dream? Sleep, are you a sleeper? Are you a sleeper? Do you sleep? When your brown eyes close Do blue skies open up? When your breathing slows Your mind run fast and free? Will you sleep and dream with me? Love, are you my lover? Are you my lover? Do you love me? Save, are you a savior? Are you a savior? Will you save? When my blue eyes close Will white clouds lift me up? When my body slows My mind run fast and free? Do you hold me when I sleep? Do you hold me when I sleep? When your brown eyes close Do blue skies open up? When your breathing slows Your mind run fast and free? Will you sleep and dream with me? Will you sleep and dream with me? Water, I?m walking on water Walking on water for you.
Skipping like a stone, across the bluest pools of what I know. Don't know where to go. Each one leaves a mark, circles through the dark and sinks into the place I need you most.
As far as the east from the west they say. I should know my east from west I know. As far as the east from the west they say. And I am only human anyway.
Now for all your cares, Put them in the air that I breathe in until you tell me "no". And for the smallest hands, Put them in my hand and I walk on until you say "let go".
As far as the east from the west they say. I should know my east from west I know. As far as the east from the west they say. And I am only human anyway.
She's the kind of girl that tends to brown freckles on her elbows and her knees And I'm the boy that passes through these towns I leave before we find out what it means
I'll send a letter addressed to you it says you're my California brown and blue Another chorus line gives into waves it fades away
So I push through another hotel door and I pull back the bed sheets till they break and I sleep so hard I don't even dream weightless in the arms of Golden Gate
The only music I want to hear is the sound of the last light left dissapears Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away
dada dada dada dada dada dada
I'll send a letter addressed to you it says you're my California brown and blue Another chorus line gives in to waves it says your my California Golden Gate
The only music I want to hear is the sound of the last light that disapears Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away
There's a dream I have, it comes back when all the days turn into one. I'm in a coat and hat, and I'm standing on the coast of England. With a castle and cathedral on the sand, I reached down to touch the water with my hand. Then you turn and say to me, "You've been talking in your sleep, What did you see? What does it mean?"
I was a photograph of our daytrip from the window of a train. The one we cut in half. I kept mine and made a bookmark on a page. It fell out today as I was getting packed. Have I left you here more times than I've come back? Like that snowfall out of reach, we kept our details underneath, once made of stone, we went for broke. I didn't know.
Lately I been waking to The bluest stars that I once slept through The morning hangs like open chords That I fill in with my own thoughts and words
I used to worry all the time But I slowed down to live my life To live my life now
College campus and warmest grass We sit and watch the poeple rush to class When did we to decide that life had to be All fasts and cheques, that we lost mystery
We used to worry all the time But we slowed down to live our lives To live our lives now
We used to worry all the time But we slowed down to live our lives To live our lives now
Mary, you are the bird inside the hand of St. Francis in the garden where he stands. Handwriting, a birth mark, and a quilt, mother to my mother and to me. And to me.
Mary, you are the mason jars in spring, the kitchen with the view across a hill. First memory is a Bible verse in song, the organ while my family sings along. We sing along.
And on the calendar when I leave a little note for you, so you see when I'm gone, I never go too far. Your heart is my heart, your blood, my blood. When I'm gone, I never get too far.
this is what it's like finding your feet again the part of you that couldn't finally thinks you can
you're taking off some time to do this a small apartment bedroom rearranged to know that you are loved you're finding your feet again the part of you that couldn't finally thinks you can
a brownstone on a street in brooklyn the light tier flash from temperature to time and people do the same you're falling alseep again part of you a dreamer and part of you is dreamt
and you said...
go now in the light of your god go now in the love of your god go now in the peace of your god go now in the joy of your god
This was the first year of our years together Your mother got sick and your sister got married This was the first year of our songs together Simple chords are lovely Simple words are heartfelt
It's the best friends that need you In my case, believe you It's the best friend's lives' kiss you In my case, I'll miss you
You were there on Queen Street when I was feeling down When every word I said felt like it meant nothing The only one I had that understands my blues Is making big predictions of life on the west coast soon
It's the best friends that make you Sometimes they break you It's the best friends that move you In my case, see through you
It's the best friends that need you Sometimes they leave you It's the best friend's lives' kiss you In my case, I'll miss you
It's the best friends that make you Sometimes they break you It's the best friends that move you In my case, see through you
It's the best friends that need you In my case, believe you It's the best friend's lives' kiss you In my case, I'll miss you
I hear you calling me by name You come around the corner smiling again And I know you're feeling better
And so the sun might turn to rain The clouds will come together over us again And they will soak us to our bone
Comfort our thoughts when we're feeling down Say what we need until we come around As a matter of fact As a matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life
I'm going back now to the time When we sat out all night and looked to the sky And dreamed it would be our escape
And so that night did turn to day The sun so bright and warm would make its way inside of me Send a shiver through my bone
Comfort my thoughts when I'm feeling down Say what I need until I come around It's the matter of fact that A matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life
I don't know what I'm doing now I don't know what I'm doing now I make myself so sick inside my bones
Comfort my thoughts when I'm feeling down Say what I need until I come around You're the matter of fact that A matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life
All of the words keep coming For me to settle down But I think I heard us falling Before we hit the ground So much for my dark takes Of how we got this far It's funny that we can make a thing Of what we really are
She sits on the bed She's so beautiful She thinks I'll be scared Of what she's feeling It's time you oughta know It's time you had the facts I'm feeling like this If you can live with that
I don't believe some things Like living for myself And I don't believe in loving Unless there's someone else
Downtown in the fall Across the sidewalks Leaves will all make fossils left behind Balancing your life This way against mine I know you're in me somewhere I have the marks to prove of this
Closer to the sun Out in the open farm To the reason of this growing I will come And you will be near And I am not old When we are close together, we are young
If I had no arms to fold into If I had joys to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine
Far from everyone Down where the river runs To the reason for this valley I will come And wash myself there Of all of my cares Through mystery and water there is love There is love
If I had no arms to fold into If I had joys to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine
If I had no arms to fold into If I had joy to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine
데니슨 윗트머의 새 앨범. 요즘 하도 들을 게 없었던 차에 예전에 이 사람 곡
뮤지스탤지아에 나왔던 기억, 그 때 좋아했던 기억, 그 때 포스팅도 했던 기억 등등
플러스 플러스 해서 기대감 약간 안고 들어봤다.
음.
좋더라구?ㅎㅎ
다만 Carry the weight라는 동명의, 약간 컨트리 느낌 나는 트랙은
내 취향 아님ㅋㅋㅋ 두 개...
데니슨 위트머의 2007년 앨범 수록곡. 씨디 자켓도 직접 제작한 거라던데 재주도 많은 싱어송 라이터다.앨범 소개한 것을 읽어보면 Graham Nash의 고독을 닮고James Taylor식의 정제된 송라이팅을 즐기는 이 남자~ 뭐 이렇게 나와 있는데이게 무슨 얘기인지 알려줄 사람?ㅋㅋㅋ 어쨌든 제2의 엘리엇 스미스라는데뭐 설명하...
