Some must watch while we sleep
To keep our dreams from the night.
Some must watch while we sleep
To keep our dreams from the night.
Some must watch while we sleep
To keep our dreams from the night.

Simple Song
03:23
|

How does one live when he's shackled by the feet
He can try he can beg 'til his knees are all week
But the man will come for his yearly fee
'Til watery explosions erupt from the sea
What does one do when he can't find his voice
He can mime he can sign for he hasn't a choice
One day he may wake up singing
And to the notes he will keep on clinging
Simple prayers from simple hearts
Simple songs with simple parts
Simple lessons simply taught
Simply thinking simple thoughts
What does one do when he sleeps through the day
No choice but to listen to what people say
He finally gave her a chance to speak
But she just stood with her eyes on her feet
What does one do at the top of a peak
should he jump in hopes of flying
Or should he walk
And forever regret trying
Simple prayers from simple hearts
Simple songs with simple parts
Simple lessons simply taught
Simply thinking simple thoughts
Simple prayers from simple hearts
Simple songs with simple parts
Simple lessons simply taught
Simply thinking simple thoughts

Crowded Galaxy
04:19
|

Look around
All you see
Has been laid out for you and me
Floating through
This open sea
A marble in a crowded galaxy
How does the Earth know when to take the bones?
Is it when the spirits find their way home?
How does the preacher know what to speak?
Does he practice while they sleep?
There's a reason why, birds are in the sky
There's a reason why, deserts are bone dry
Look around
All you see
Has been laid out for you and me
Floating through
This open sea
A marble in a crowded galaxy
How does the moon know when to shine?
Does it keep track of time like us?
Does the roof just hold up the walls
In fear that it will fall?
There's a reason why, birds are in the sky
There's a reason why, deserts are bone dry
Look around
All you see
Has been laid out for you and me
Floating through
This open sea
A marble in a crowded galaxy
Does the water know it's sin
Of giving life so it can take it back again?
There's a reason why, birds are in the sky
There's a reason why, deserts are bone dry
Look around
All you see
Has been laid out for you and me
Floating through
This open sea
A marble in a crowded galaxy

Suitcase in Hand
03:42
|

It's been a long time since I've seen your face
Have you changed? Have you changed?
This glove it don't fit anymore, it's made of lace
Oh I have changed, I have changed
But it's you
Oh it's you
Your suitcase in hand
The lights surround me like a billion stars
They call me near, from afar
I look outside the window at the snow
Like a blanket, it covers the patio
But it's you
Oh it's you
You've come 'cause you understand
The bricks are stacking by themselves
The hearth is burned with blackened scars
The books are flying to their shelves
The lights returning the the stars
The wooden walls surround, me keeping me safe
I am safe, I am safe
The sun so bright I have to squint my eyes
The boats gone, to my surprise
But it's you
Oh it's you
Your suitcase in hand
The bricks are stacking by themselves
The hearth is burned with blackened scars
The books are flying to their shelves
The lights returning the the stars
t's been a long time since I've seen your face
Have you changed? Have you changed?
This glove it don't fit anymore, it's made of lace
Oh I have changed, I have changed

The Lighthouse
04:37

Rest my darlin'
Place your head upon my heart
Forget about your troubles
Things that tear you apart
Think about tomorrow
And what the day could bring
No more sorrows
Let the night wash everything
I know you're thirsty
With desire on your lips
But we're all waiting for
Something we may never get
That's why I've gone before you
To make sure you're safe
I'll be in the lighthouse
To bring your ship in one day
My beautiful baby boy
I love you more and more
Everyday I wait and pray
To see you on the shore
On the shore
I'm sorry if i hurt you
But you were always on my mind
Such a hard decision
For what I'd leave behind
Now I'll watch the ocean
Until you're here with me
The we'll be together
We'll finally be free
My beautiful baby boy
I love you more and more
Everyday I wait and pray
To see you on the shore
My beautiful baby boy
I love you more and more
Everyday I wait and pray
To see you on the shore
On the shore

Train Tracks
03:33
|

There is a place where we both can sit
It's getting late, it's hard to admit how old we've gotten
How old we've gotten.
I know a place where we both can live
House with a roof, it's all we could get
But its home. Oh Home
We follow the train tracks
Plank by plank,step by step
Until we see that train rolling through the hills
Through the hills
I know a place where we both can walk
Trails are winding, there's silence to talk over
Forest silence. Oh forest silence
We follow the train tracks
Plank by plank,step by step
Until we see that train rolling through the hills
Through the hills
We follow the train tracks
Plank by plank,step by step
Until we see that train rolling through the hills
Through the hills
Through the hills
Through the hills

Cheerful Noise
04:26
|
|||
Sometimes I don't know where I am
But I know where I've been
Sometimes I get lost in the win
But I know that life is full of sin
Sometimes I don't know where my mind is
But my head is full of sand
Sometimes I forget how I got here
So I live upon the land
Time is running out
I don't know if it's right or wrong
Oh but the cheerful noise
Tells me I belong
Sometimes the wind whispers to me
About the lives who've taken flight
Sometimes the trees like to tell me
About the leaves they've sacrificed
Time is running out
I don't know if it's right or wrong
Oh but the cheerful noise
Tells me I belong

Wide Awake
04:53
|
|||
There's a flower growing at the foot of my bed
Don't know what kind, but it's yellow and red
There's a rosebush growing in my sink
Don't know how, but my sanity is on the brink
There's a forest growing in my closet
So I slay and listen to the wild night sounds
The lamp shade makes the room a rose color
So I get lost in it
I found a way to dream wide awake
It's easy like one, two, three, or like pie or a piece of cake
Wonder dies fast these days, I say
But would you stay a little longer?
There's a tree growing in the middle of my living room
So I built a coffee table around it
There's grass sprouting from the carpet
So I sit and have a picnic inside
I found a way to dream wide awake
It's easy like one, two, three, or like pie or a piece of cake
Wonder dies fast these days, I say
But would you stay a little longer?

Settle in the Dust
03:26
|

Our thoughts of fate
They just drift away
Like leaves on a breeze disappear into space
The mountains they all know
The lives that live below
They whisper to the skies
All the lies we have told
The sky laughs at us
'Cause we settle, in the dust
We know no what we've done
As we stare, we stare right into the sun
The wolves howl in the night
'Cause they only dream of flight
But the sky keeps them bound to the ground
Until the day, we listen to their sound
The sky laughs at us
'Cause we settle, in the dust
We know no what we've done
As we stare, we stare right into the sun
The thieves of the night
They steal from us our sight
To hide us all from
The punishment we've won

Blue and Grey
04:39
|

We grew up in a mining town
Nothing there for miles around
It was such a frightening sound
When the soldiers, cam marching down
Tears were shed and tongues were tied
Everybody chose a side
Their wills and walls were fortified
I recall, how momma cried
Take me to the river, wash the blood stains from our hands
Heart broken strangers where a family used to stand
No one could have drenched this when they rode off all alone
My men, would not come home
My men went off to war today
One in blue and one in grey
No one knew quite what to say
When they left that day in May
Take me to the river, wash the blood stains from our hands
Heart broken strangers where a family used to stand
No one could have drenched this when they rode off all alone
My men, would not come home
There was a turquoise river where we played
The same river where momma prayed
Now that river's turned to red
As we lay, them both down to bed
Take me to the river, wash the blood stains from our hands
Heart broken strangers where a family used to stand
No one could have drenched this when they rode off all alone
My men, would not come home
