Never To Return
03:39
|
|

No rope and string could ever bind me
No bell and collar could be forced kindly
It would all be futility
For my spirit to stick around
Break the bonds that tethered down
And break away, never to return
Far away from smokey skies
Above the earth I’m free inside
And below the earth will keep on waiting
For my spirit to stick around
Break the bonds that tether down
And break away, never to return

Now there is wind passing through the trees
Now there is moonlight fallen on the leaves
And soon I will close my eyes
And this will all be just a memory
Now there is starlight as far as we can see
Now it is quiet, it’s only you and me
And soon I will close my eyes
And this will all be just a memory
Soon we’ll say adieu to now
And return, return to dreams
And soon I will close my eyes
And this will all be just a memory
Now it is evening, now it is late
Now when we make love, it seems this was fate
Soon I will close my eyes
And this will all be just a memory

Transformation
03:33
|
|

You once had a wish when you were young
You wished that you could see what you’d become
To know your fortune what you would have done
To see yourself now, your transformation
The way it worked out, a confirmation
To vanquish all doubt, is this what you wanted to be?
You once had a wish back in the day
To know how things turned out in older age
That future past was written on a page
So you could see yourself now, your transformation
The way it worked out, a confirmation
To vanquish all doubt, is this what you wanted to be?
To see yourself now, your transformation
The way it worked out, a confirmation
To vanquish all doubt, is this what you wanted to be?
To see yourself now, your transformation
The way it worked out, a confirmation
To vanquish all doubt, is this what you wanted to be?

Were It Not For You
03:02
|
|
||
Were it not for today
Were it not for you I could not say
The streets in the city
Have no place for pity
So try to let go of the little things
Were it not for tonight
Were it not for you, your vision bright
The nights in the alley
I walk through the valley
It’s good to let go of the little things
Were it not for tomorrow
Were it not for you, your love I borrow

A Different Rain
03:55
|
|
||
Get out of bed
Turn on the lights
Put on your clothes
And make your way out the door
Observe
The night has returned
Emerged once more
The time
(The time)
Is right once again
The night in store
(This time my love)
Waiting to be explored
(Tonight, tonight)
Know that tonight isn’t like before
(This time my love)
It’s a different rain that’s pouring
(Tonight, tonight)
Put on your coat
Grab your wallet and keys
(Get out of bed)
Look in the mirror
The image that you see
Observe
Under a spell
You see so much more
(Return once more)
The time
(The time)
Is right once again
The night in store
(This time my love)
Waiting to be explored
(Tonight, tonight)
Know that tonight isn’t like before
(This time my love)
It’s a different rain that’s pouring
(Tonight, tonight)
Relax your shoulders
And take a deep breath
Settle your heart
And make your way out the door

It Was As If
05:01
|
|
||
Like the storm
Raining down on our heads
It happened so suddenly
Out the door
Went all common sense
Went words, reality
Just before
Is so far out of our minds
As it takes leave
And now what’s left
What’s taking over
Is you
Like the cord
In the wall, once plugged in
I was turned on
Out the door
Went all prior events, I tried to speak
But my words were gone
The past was torn
Was so far out of our minds
As it dawned
That I’m here
Yes I’m here
With you
It was as if
I had peered into a crystal globe
It was as if
One said mirror, mirror
Mirror, mirror on the wall
There’s so much more
The page was blank for the pen
To ink
And like the shore
That at last appears for boats
Once lost at sea
What’s in store
I can already guess
I can already, already see
And see nothing else
All I see
Is you

Mind, Body And Loins
04:28
|
|
||
The memory of the past is suddenly familiar
To return at last, flying down on wings
As if I had gone back, I heard it loud as thunder
In the tone of your voice
No choice but to remind me
In a flash I could not avoid
Suddenly I’m finding
That mind, body and loins
Have come to see the path
Born back to the past
Back to once again
Thoughts that I once stashed
Recollections once discreet
It happened all so fast
I heard it loud as thunder
In the tone of your voice
No choice but to remind me
In a flash I could not avoid
Suddenly I’m finding
That mind, body and loins
Have come to see the path
It happened all so soon,
I heard it loud as thunder
In the tone of your voice
No choice but to remind me
In a flash I could not avoid
Suddenly I’m finding
That mind, body and loins
Have come to see the path

This Is Our Vision
05:29
|
|
||
There’s something more
In the distance
Let’s close our eyes
And imagine we’re far away
Another place, another time, it is there we’ll surely find as we escape
This is our vision
Our fascination
A burning wish
Though distant
We can’t dismiss
We cannot unsee
The flicker and the trail of black smoke
The stench in the air
This is our vision
Our fascination
Have faith in our construction
It’s sharper than a knife
The color of our conviction
Shines so very bright
A gentle sound
In the distance
It summons us
To answer the call
Ahead there is hope
There is faith
There is strength to believe
This is our vision
Our fascination

Snake

Lament the lyric
Hollowed hour
Awaits
Coiled snake
Fuming hate
A set up for the blues

Our House On The Left
02:42
|
|
||
Our house on the left
Is lively if you ask the neighbors
One can imagine what goes on inside
(What goes on)
When the blinds are drawn
And the window’s dark, guess how we spend our time?
Our house on the left
May seem ordinary to a stranger
But soon they always come to find
(What goes on)
(What goes on)
The music through the walls
Echoing in darkened halls
Must I spell out at all,
Must I confirm to you just how we spend our time?
Our house on the left
We’re lively if you ask the neighbors
The things they think we do inside
