Daydreaming To Pianos
You were daydreaming to pianos
In your big yellow house
It was a warm day for January
And the time slowly passed
You were daydreaming to pianos,
I was regretting a mistake
I wish I was always
Half asleep and half awake
If I were sleep talking, I’d never say
The words to let you down
And it’s so quiet moving on
It’s all I have to turn to now
It’s all I have to turn to now
You were daydreaming to pianos
Smiling your innocent smile
Someday I’ll find a love
That lasts longer than a little while
(chorus)

Must Be Freedom
I feel every moment of my life
All at once and this must be freedom
The good and bad
The highs and lows live together
Under one roof made of stars
The ones I’ve loved live forever
I hear every song I’ve ever sung
And every song I’ve yet to sing
And this must be freedom
The good and bad
The highs and lows live together
Under one roof made of stars
The ones I’ve loved live forever
I feel every love I’ve ever lost
And every love I’ve yet to gain
And this must be freedom
I feel every moment of my life
All at once and this must be freedom
The good and bad
The highs and lows live together
Under one roof made of stars
The ones I’ve loved live forever

Remember To Dream
I found myself sleeping
Nearly dead it seems
But I don’t wake up
I just remember to dream
My eyes were wide open
But all I could see
Was the cold, cold world
I just remember to dream
Remember to dream,
Across the ocean, across the sea
Across the whole wide world
Across the whole wide world
I feel like something’s out to get me
Tearing hard at the seams
But I tell myself
Just remember to dream
(chorus)
I found myself sleeping
Nearly dead it seems
But I don’t wake up
I just remember to dream

Waiting To Be Found
Looking out from here I see
The soul of man blaze across the sky
And every force of nature
Looking me in the eye
I used to think I could ride these clouds
Like a train full of lightning and speed
But I know better now
Cause I was standing on the ground
Waiting to be found, when you found me
Looking out from here are seeds of love
Scattered ‘cross the land
I can unchain pride and wash sorrow away
You’d still hold my hard luck hand
I never thought I could be so low
And the angels still could see
But I know better now
Cause I was standing on the ground
Waiting to be found, when you found me
I used to think I could ride these clouds
Like a train full of lightning and speed
But I know better now
Cause I was standing on the ground
Waiting to be found, when you found me

Fishing Pole To The Stars
Sister, brother
My long lost lover
There's nothing that can't be ours
I'll see you soon
By the light of the quarter moon
And we'll cast our fishing pole to the stars

Life Of The Party
Last night I was the life of the party
This morning I could have been dead
You really saved my life
Now that's once or twice
Rock & Roll really went to my head
So this one goes out to you kindly
Words with a melody so strong
Its time to celebrate, cause its never too late
I'm the life of the party singing my song
I think its alright
We really did it now
In the morning light
We're gonna make it there somehow
I hope no one finds me that way
Again, it must have been a scare
I was out of my mind, left there for you to find
I am surely glad you were there

Whim and a Whisper

Whim and a Whisper
The boombox is drowning out the crickets
The moon is high, hiding in the thicket
Through the window I hear
The strumming of a weary tune
Singing you’ve got to hold on
You’re gonna find your best friend soon
You’ve got tomorrow,
Tomorrow you never missed her
This world was made
On a whim and a whisper
There’s a campfire burning, there’s the postcard blues
There’s a silence in knowing there’s nothing to lose
There’s whiskey in a glass
And coffee in the kettle
And when you wake up in the morning
All your good dreams settle
(chorus)
Philosophers and gypsies cross paths by chance
Fireflies and cigarettes, in the dark how they dance
Everybody’s telling stories
To fill an empty space
Everybody’s got fire and starlight
Glowing on their face
(chorus)

Surrender
When you left you took a piece,
Of my silent sunlit heart
Your face could be my face,
You couldn’t tell us two apart
So is it any wonder I can see you,
When I close my eyes?
Is it any wonder I can hold you
Beneath those endless skies?
When I see you again will you still know my name?
Cause nothing feels the same
There’s no one to blame
You surrender
The clock don’t look back it seems
And I always knew that too
But when you lose everything you love
You tell yourself, that’s something
We all go through
And you know that I can find you
In the dark and raging wind
And you know that I can call you
Linda you’re my best friend

Beautiful Infinite Wonderful
My love comes to me in the night
Seeking my protection
From the evil men and ill winds of this earth
Claiming her perfection
She's got the truth sealed in her heart
And laughing lips
No gold or silver can afford
Her promises she keeps
Reveals her prophecies without a word
Everybody's got the answer,
They're so sincere
I've been searching my whole life
It was in my ear
All along
Oh, you're beautiful, infinite and wonderful
My love comes to me in the morning
Seeking conversation
She crawls through my bedroom window
Destroys my isolation
She asks me where I've been and I tell her
But she don't believe me
She says you've been hiding out too long boy
Why don't you just come out to see me
I've been fighting the weather
I've been fighting the tears
All these excuses turn into years
before you know
Then I saw your face in the mirror
It looked like the future
But it was much more clear to me now
Oh, you're beautiful, infinite and wonderful

Redbird
I’d rather be a dirty old bird
Singing my song from your floor
Than be a red, red bird
Who’s flying so high and free
But still outside your door
How can I be free
When I’m outside your door?
Broken hearts have the rain
And thieves have the night
But my love has none such the same
So I’ll walk right through
These empty streets at dawn
An orphan child singing your name
I’ll walk these streets an orphan child singing your name

Waves + Waves
Golden leaves and piney trees
So many stars, so many stars
And if you believe, I'll believe
This could all be ours, all be ours
We could be like that lucky old sun
And roll around heaven till our good day comes
Hold your hand till it melts our soul
Waves and waves how they roll and roll
Well I'm all alone so call me home
We gonna take all night, take all night
Tomorrow's brave so let's be brave
Gonna get things right, get things right
(chorus)

Involuntary Motion
There's much more to dreaming
Than a pillow and a bed
There's the things you forgot to say
And what you wish that you never said
I wish that I never said
I never wanted you to let me go
And I love you and I love you so
It's an involuntary motion
There's much more to breathing
Than your face and the air
It's these involuntary motions
We take for granted are there
I took for granted you were there
I never wanted you to let me go
And I love you and I love you so
It's an involuntary motion

Falling Leaves
Overflowing ashtrays and empty coffee cups
A tangled mess but I’m not giving up
I’ve got a worn-out soul and them walking blues
But who am I kidding I don’t wear no shoes
Lay it all out like your heart on your sleeve
Like the sound in my chest every time that you leave
Like the people you loved you never could be
Like the smell of cold fronts and falling leaves
Twenty-seven came and went
I thought all my life had been spent
It’s no accident, that car didn’t kill me
I’ve still got a little passion left in me
For cheap women and expensive whiskey
All my life has been spent dreaming
(chorus)
Go down into the river
Of a lover’s dirty liver
