Here You Are, Baby!
I've been asking for you, I've been wondering about you,
I've been waiting for you, I've been praying for you, and
Here you are, baby, in my arms, baby, and I don't want to let you go.
Here you are, baby, in my arms, baby, and I don't want to let you go, no.
We've been talking about making promises and how we can't say,
Where we'll be five years from today,
While I know that's true, I just want to hold you.
Damn baby you make it hard, so much, so soon, so good,
You say you're coming back, but I wish that you wouldn't
leave, me, so soon.
Yeah, yeah, you should go to Arizona now
and I`ll just sit here alone,
No, no, no, you know that I won`t be alone,
but I`m going to miss you so.
I ain`t going to take advantage,
and I ain`t going to take you for granted,
I`ll just take what I can get
`cause you`re the best thing that I`ve had yet.
Chorus

IRONHORSE
04:33
|

|
The pounding of our hearts the only sound I hear,
Gateway of the Sun where the Gods are near,
Awaken to the secrets from the other side,
Ritual initiate, now open wide.
Going to ride my Iron Horse all night to get to you,
It's been a lifetime, baby, since I met you,
Music in my heart and soul connects with you,
Question begs and begs now babe, what can I do?
Think and feel and love and wait and wonder,
Keep my windows open in the thunder,
Let the rain come in, How is that a sin?
Think and feel and love and wait and wonder.
Billows of the factory smoke are rising,
Painting with broad strokes on the horizon,
There's no use in trying to deny them,
Just ride my Iron Horse right by them.
To have your body next to mine at night,
And know that I don't even have to fight,
Your words, your touch, my love, are my delight,
Come together with me, baby, that's right.

Green Heart
Three dozen swallows dart for mosquitos, Sun beats down and warms my green heart,
New day not so blue day green of new leaves in the spring,
Turn over a new leaf and the old one falls apart,
Falls apart, falls apart.
Yellow shaggy dandelions bouncing golden light, turn away from the river, they're dancing in my sight.
Take baby steps, yeah, baby steps to reach the highest height,
Walk the middle mud-path road, you know I'll be all right, I'll be all right!
Find the balance, temper, stillness, fill the cup of happiness and spill the poisoned chalice,
Be the Earth in constant rebirth, born out of desire, hurricanes and FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!
Living with scarcity in the city is a rarity, Embrace the simplicity and blessed be with clarity,
Clarity, clarity, clarity

Swan Dive
I've been feeling so down, people staying away, lately,
Been hurting so bad, feel like going away, lately,
But you come through and help me in all the right ways,
Show me I still have an ace up my sleeve,
I can let love in, I just got to believe.
I can open my eyes to see the light,
Open my heart loving day and night,
Feel the pain and break on through,
Breaking that shell will make me stronger too.
Breathe in, Straight up, Further now, Spread those wings,
Exhale, Swan Dive, 100 feet, Straight down,
Bare skin, Feel the air, Feel the sun, Feel the sweat,
Head down, vertical, Feel the rush, Deeper yet
Om Maha Mata Om, Shakti Kundalini Om
When I think of you, baby, I'm alone in my bed, lately,
I can't seem to get you out of my head, lately,
'Cause you come through and help me in all the right ways,
Show me I still have an ace up my sleeve,
I can let love in I just got to believe.
I can open my eyes to see the light,
Open my heart loving day and night,
Feel the pain and break on through,
Breaking that shell will make me stronger too.
Breathe in, Straight up, Further now, Spread those wings,
Exhale, Swan Dive, 100 feet, Straight down,
Bare skin, Feel the air, Feel the sun, Feel the sweat,
Head down, vertical, Feel the rush, Deeper yet

An Anchor
02:47
|

|
Sailing, drifting, lost at sea,
I've got an ocean to have you here with me,
Navigate freely over the blue,
Drop down an anchor and rest safely with you.
Salt in our hair and salt on our skin,
Salt from the water and salt from within.
Sailing, drifting, lost at sea,
I've got a notion to have you here with me,
Navigate freely over the blue,
Drop down an anchor and rest safely with you.
Rock with me darling rising with the tide,
Watch the seals playing right by my side.
Sailing, drifting, lost at sea,
I've got an ocean to have you here with me,
Navigate freely over the blue,
Drop down an anchor and rest safely with you.

All Right

Azure Sky and snow so white,
Here you are with me tonight.
Branches brown and needles green,
Loveliest I've ever seen
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear,
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear.
Turquoise lake and emerald ice,
Reflections in your eyes entice,
Blood red skin that beats the frost,
Yellow dog and orange moss.
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear,
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear.
Purple mountain glaciers glow,
Salmon fades to indigo,
Shadow black and candle light,
All night, all right, all right, all night.
All night, all right, all right, all night,
All right, all night, all night, all right.
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear,
Love you here and Love you there
Love you everywhere I swear.

Sitting on the beach drinking whiskey and rum,
Feeling like a tired and lonely old bum,
I drank too much and then I drank some,
You know it's over when the bus driver yawns.
I missed my chance to see the sweet lovebirds fly,
But I've often wondered if you can really get that high,
I've taken so much, don't ask me why,
'Cause I know it's over when sweet mama cries.
Yes, I believe that I have seen enough,
Of police and accidents and other nasty stuff,
Life in the bush ain't nearly so rough,
'Cause I know it's over when you've got to play the bluff.
I have danced my last city waltz,
My metropolitan life has come to a halt,
I've cried so much I can still taste the salt,
And I know it's over when it's nobody's fault.
I believe I'd best be on my way,
And I hope that nobody asks me to stay,
It would be too long if only a day,
I'm pushing my kayak out into the bay.
I sing in the morning paddling on the sea,
Wondering to myself, where am I me?
I'm where you end up once you've lost all your keys,
'Cause I know it's over when you're down on your knees.
And I won't let them push me down,
I ain't going to wear no bitter old frown,
I'll just don my prettiest gown,
And say fare thee well to this dirty old town.
Sitting on the beach drinking whiskey and rum,
Feeling like a tired and lonely old bum,
I drank too much and then I drank some,
You know it's over when the bus driver yawns.

Song in My Head
There's a man on my mind, who I can't keep,
I think too much and I can't sleep,
There's a man in my heart whose love is deep,
He's in my soul and it makes, makes me weep.
Chorus
There's a song in my head that I can't sing,
I go to pluck and I break the string,
There's a tune in my hands that I can't play,
I touch the keys and they fade away.
There's magic in the touch that goes deep inside,
Even sitting still it's a crazy ride,
I told my heart to open wide,
Something happened that day, day I died, day I died, day I died.
Chorus
There's room in my heart that I can't fill,
There's wine in my glass that I won't spill,
There's a hankering in my loins I have got to thrill,
Bringing that love in, you know, know I will, know I will, know I will.
Chorus
