they knew me when i was in the devil's hands
the prettiest thing in the ugliest frame
i smoked a cigarette at the bar
i had politicians on my car
i had long hair, no make up, some scars
they knew me when i sang on stage in the middle of day
a two dollar show, i let everyone know
they knew me when
you would come over, you and your brother
we'd play scripts, drinks and strip down, climb the gate, jump the pool, the kind of thing you do
pile in cars and drive so far
you know i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, it's ok
we're all ok
i know we lost sometimes along the way
you know i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, it's ok
we're all ok
you're in europe, you're going to pennsylvania
i think she still feels a stranger
he's right next door and i love him
i can think of a few more
they're both in california
idaho, i don't know what you do out there but you've got some beautiful children
i live just around the bend my friend says we'll meet again, i know, i'll send a video, sometime
you know i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, it's ok
we're all ok
i know we lost sometimes along the way
but i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, we're all ok
i know we lost sometimes along the way
he comes home once in a while
my style don't change
i'm not too wild, quiet but free
when i'm comfortable
well, you know me
flicked the ash out the window
woke him up on a snowy road
no sleep, too much sleep, days....
you know i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, it's ok
we're all ok
i know we lost sometimes along the way
but i love you old friend
i've been on the mend and i'm ok, we're all ok
i know we lost sometimes along the way

thunder
holds me
wind through trees
bolder than me
i need...
i need...
skin
damp and clean
get dressed and drive to see
i need...
i need...
i was lying there in clean sheets after a shower naked in a silk bathrobe i kept from college but had forgotten i owned it was wrapped around me smoothly and was always open in front because the tie had long since been broken the storm was just tremendous just outside such noise just outside my window i felt peaceful slow. in the distance you were just home from driving in its aftermath

relax... la la love
03:35

why won't you relax your shoulders
it's not a love song but there's love
why won't you just hold her
in the night tell me what you think i want
i'm dreaming of la la la love
in the night tell me what you think i want
i'm dreaming of la la la love

all i want now
03:26
|
|||
|
ain't nothing rough going on between us
you got the stuff and i got the taste of...
come down, don't come down
a sound is all i want now
i cried, got your shirt wet
you photograph the moon and more...
come down, don't come down
a sound is all i want now
this love in the making, pull my coat
i'm underneath, i'm carried by...
come down, don't come down
a sound is all i want now

love, but
03:41
|

|
who do you sleep with?
who do you know so well?
get up early, get dressed and get out
sober, serious girl
woman woman
i'm like water, i am the sea
i see mercy looking back at me
you can move forward
you can spend time
you can love, but...
"who do you say i am?"
at the end of it all, we were lovers, lovers, lovers
we were friends and love makes things pretty
i'm like water, i am the sea
i see mercy looking back at me
you can move forward
you can spend time
you can love, but...
then walk the trail, then get the mail, then drive the car, then drive too far, then try too hard, then miss the turn, then circle back, then don't look back
i'm like water, i am the sea
and love makes things pretty

a simple thing
03:35
|
|||
|
dark hands on burgundy lace
on hips and waist
my pale and white against the light of the day
and i pulled up the pillow where you slept and held it close to my face
it's only a simple thing
and i don't want to start if it can't be finished
i think that we're past beginnings
it's only everything
get me a christmas tree, get me a rose
get me home my darling before the children grow
and i pulled up the pillow where you slept and held it close to my face
it's only a simple thing
and i don't want to start if it can't be finished
i think that we're past beginnings
it's only everything
oh... take me here and take me there and call me names so i'll bite your hand in the car, past the golden groves
where the strawberries grow, and the rainbows, and the rainbows, and the rainbows, and the rain goes
and i pulled up the pillow where you slept and held it close to my face
it's only a simple thing
but i don't want to start if it can't be finished
i know that we're past beginnings
it's only everything

i see the expressions deep
don't know every past you keep
but that tender heart
do you keep guard?
well, it would make sense if you did
so much has happened since you were that kid
you're not the boy you were, no you're not the boy
though you've got the same sweet smile
though you've got the same
sweet face and eyes that shine, some things have been rearranged
strong arms to hold me and strong arms to lift and strong soul to lift me and strong arm me
wisdom that strengthens me and boldness and no bullshitness
but do you still keep guard?
well, it would make sense if you did
so much has happened since you were that kid
you're not the boy you were, no you're not the boy
though you've got the same sweet smile
though you've got the same
sweet face and eyes that shine, some things have been rearranged

the sun has changed
02:49
|
|||
|
on the drive i sang at the top of my lungs
rough and full
on the drive i yelled to the backseat
to the children, to the chaos of the drive
on the drive i cried and cried
on the drive i remembered my father
on the drive i reminded myself to breathe
the sun has changed
the sun has changed my friend
the sun has changed again

i've got a secret
02:36
|

|
i've got a secret
i'm gonna keep it
under my pillow
and watch it unfold
i've got a secret
and you were in it
a quiet feeling
you... delicate stranger
moved by an angel
moved by my heart
nobody knows
now i'm in your arms
now i'm enraptured
delicate capture
shifting sands do come
i've got some secrets
i'm gonna keep them
close to my pillow
some silent wishes
la da da da da da da
nobody knows

tear this upside down
02:03
|
|||
|
and i miss you
and i'm driving round this town
and the rain soothes
circling round and round and round
and my head and my head and my head
and my heart and my heart and my heart
in between in between my legs
and and and and...
when you linger with your finger underneath my shirt that's cleaner than the thoughts we keep between us lift me up and i can feel my breathing shiver feeling through my chest and in a flooding happy tingle through my face and then my mouth gasps, ahhaha
ooh... ooh...
and i miss you
and i'm circling round this round
and i'll call you
and i'll come over and we'll tear this upside down

body, stop me

i get lost in thought
tell me what to be
stop stop stop
when i get angry
when i get angry
i don't get angry
why don't we let me
...
legs in a criss cross
puzzle piece criss cross
fingers on your face
fingers to taste, taste

slow heart
03:48
|
|||
|
i've got a slow heart
can't move
can't start can't...
i remember when you had a look a longing in your eyes
i'm all mixed up now
spinning
spinning
spinning
does it matter
what do you feel
is it true
is it real
what do i feel
what do i feel
i've got a slow heart
that makes it hard to start
