Shadows - A Prologue
02:59
|
|||
shadows fall across the room tonight
eclipsing every molecule in sight
i listen to your sonnet as you sleep
i count pentameter instead of sheep
i feel myself dissembling
in words i couldn't be resembling
i lie upon the bed and watch your face
discover that i'm gone without a trace
shadows turn the room an icy blue
illuminating everything but you
running through the past is all i do
searching for the time of me and you

Saddle Road
05:03
|

driving the saddle road
driving to get more past we climbing
climbing the hairy hill
climbing the hairy hill
a glimpse of a world lit only by snow
changes but stays the same
driving the saddle road
driving to get more past you go by
up in the stratosphere
up in the stratosphere
higher than all the clouds around you
walk on the pillowed air
driving the saddle road
driving to get more past you turn here
lost within easy view
lost with an easy view
when did it ever get so late
when could you bring me home
driving to get away
monotony dwells in hills of fire
how could i turn away

crawl is all i all
crawl is not to fall
crawl is all i all is all i all and not to fall
wave upon the shore
wave forever more
wave upon the wave upon the wave upon the shore

Music Hangs
03:34
|
|||
music hangs suspended in the air
chords that seem to change when you're not there
i had a dream of you just yesterday
you were young and strong and i was at play
you sat down i put my head upon your knee
looking up i claimed you for my memory
and i realized that i'd gone back in time
and you didn't yet know that you were going to die
music hangs suspended in the air
chords that seem to change when you're not there
i woke up and found myself a world away
and i missed you more than ever a song could say
and i realized that i'd come back in time
and i didn't yet know that i was going to die
and i didn't yet know that i was going to die

Death Came to Call
04:12
|
|||
death came to call, but i shooed him away
he was swarming like flies at your window all day
but i pulled down the shade, and i hummed a sweet tune
now death stands alone underneath the pale moon.
death came to call, in a fancy black car
he pulled up to our house with the door left ajar
but i slammed the door shut, and i locked it up tight
now death circles the block with his chauffeur all night.
death came to call, on the airwaves tonight
reporting disaster on an old black & white
but i leaped from my seat, and i switched off the screen
now death bounces from rooftop antennas unseen.
death came to call, he was right by your side
there was no place to go, you had nowhere to hide
but i kept a close watch, and held onto your hand
and death bowed & receded with his tracks in the sand.
not this time, he said, as he vanished from sight,
and it started to rain as i switched out the light.

Ships are sailing away now, trailing lights on up the coast
Rain comes down like a curtain, falling on my father's ghost
Disappears in a fog bank, even when i need him most.
Hanalei Hanala
I am hanging from a shooting star
that falls from the sky.
Hanalei Hanali
There are stars falling all over the sea
and so what am i?
Crawling out of the darkness, into darkness further still
Hope to get to the surface, but i guess i never will
Seems so strangely familiar, like a dream i must fulfill.
Hanalei Hanala
I am burning like a shooting star
that falls from the sky.
Hanalei Hanali
There are stars that burn across the sea
and so what am i?
Hanalei Hanala
I am burning like a shooting star
that falls from the sky.
Hanalei Hanali
There are stars burning all over the sea
and so what am i?
Climbing up on the mountain, all my pockets lined with snow
Frost is fire on the windshield, and i know it's time to go
All the world could be ashes, and i'd be the last to know.
Hanalei Hanala
I am wishing on a shooting star
that falls from the sky.
Hanalei Hanali
I am begging on my bended knee
and so what am i?

The Stars, The Stars
02:04
|
|||
Do you remember a night
when the sky came down
the sky came down
We were drowning in stars
And no moon shone low
on the tops of the houses
And no moon reflect
the face of the sea.
And the world disappear
with our sadness & fear
and i tell you i love you
It's so perfectly clear.
But the stars, the stars.
The stars, the stars.
