Summer is fading fast
Open the windows baby
Watch it blow past
You say you need something
Anything baby
Anything you ask
Stay beside me
Don’t go away
Let’s take this moment
Turn it into days
Falling forward fast
Nothing’s for certain baby
None of this will last
You say just let go
Plans are not necessary
No no no
Stay beside me
Don’t go away
Let’s take this moment
Turn it into days
Rolling like a river rock
Tumbling downstream baby
Never gonna stop
You say you know that tune
Down by the ocean baby
Lit by the moon
Stay beside me
Don’t go away
Let’s take this moment
Turn it into days

Gone
03:19

I went to the river
Early in the morning before dawn
The river was gone
Drunk by the wild one
He was always reaching for something strong
And then he was gone
Out there in the bright stars shining
He’s climbing
Ladders hooked to ladders
Slowly as the night is turning
Novas burning
Matter into matter
I went to the ocean
Later in the afternoon
Nothing but dunes
A scattering of skeletons
A petrified forest and a dry lagoon
The face of the moon
Out there in the bright stars shining
She’s climbing
Ladders hooked to ladders
Slowly as the night is turning
Novas burning
Matter into matter
I went to the river
Early in the morning before dawn
The river was gone

Avalanche
03:23
|

|
I see you there in the night
I see the darkness around you
I see the angels have found you
Up there on a ridge in the mountains of heaven
With hell behind you
There’s not gonna be any second chance
Just do or die now
And ride the avalanche
I see you there in the valley
Drinking melt from the glacier
Water as blue as your eye
I blink and you’re gone
But the waterfall’s song
Turns stranger
There’s not gonna be any second chance
Just do or die now
And ride the avalanche
I see you there in the city
In the company of kings
Rings on your fingers
You wake in the night
Walk away in a dream
You hear the singers
There’s not gonna be any second chance
Just do or die now
And ride the avalanche

Island in the Clouds
03:26
|
|||
|
Here I am far away on an island in the clouds
Singing for my love in a another world
The girl from the iron town
In the middle of the waving sea
The flash in her eyes
The endless shores of the prairie
The dark and the light
Calling me

Space Machine
04:11
|
|||
|
Oh the air is clean
Riding on the space machine
Empty pockets, couple of sockets
Toolkit underneath the seat
Yeah I can feel the weight of what I used to be
Rise and float away from me
Night out on the sand
All the desert breathes it in
Little fox, tiny moth
Dance the ways awake again
Yeah I can feel the weight of what I used to be
Rise and float away from me
Morning comes again
Lifting like the slowest curtain
All the sky’s million eyes
Blink and fade and close for certain
Yeah I can feel the weight of what I used to be
Rise and float away from me

Now
03:50
|

|
Down in the meadow where the green grass grows
And the hemlocks tower over dark foxholes
There’s another world… another world
Over by the river where the land is folded
And sunbeams fall to the ground where we rolled
It’s another world… another world
All of the time is now
The rest of the world falls into line
And everything rhymes with the look in her eyes
People say she is a little bit crazy
But they do not know
She’s another world… another world
She sends me pictures on the wind
Multiverses you turn up in another world
Another world
All of the time is now
The rest of the world falls into line
And everything rhymes with the look in her eyes

Blue
03:31
|
|||
|
Lifting over the pines
Dark dreams and bright designs
Drifting out of your mind
Cold breeze on a white hot line
She got you now
You’re hers ever and ever somehow
Her odds her ways
Pull you in to the center of the days
I know you believe in something
And something believes in you
The flash of your wings in the dark night
Carry you over the deepest blue
So long song
Set in stone but the stone is gone
Mountain melted away
Slipped down to the edge of the bay
Her love her eyes
On the sun in the center of the skies
Your hands your knees
Heart beating from the center of the seas
I know you believe in something
And something believes in you
The flash of your wings in the dark night
Carry you over the deepest blue

The Golden Door
03:38
|
|||
|
The desert feels like rain
I think the flowers have got into my brain
Woke in the shade of a sycamore tree
Angel in a pickup stopped by and rescued me
She died and came back through the golden door
The automated external defibrillator
Brought her back for one more
She died and came back through the golden door
Her road is a crooked line
Over the lip of the canyon down to another time
Running to the river I can see her still
Rose with her long hair dripping
Looking like she could kill
She died and came back through the golden door
The automated external defibrillator
Brought her back for one more
She died and came back through the golden door
