The Silence
03:59
|
|||
You've got plenty to say
I see it creepin' up your tongue.
A week's worth of melting, your eyes are so telling
You're damn near on the run.
You're on the run.
There's a quiet fire burning
Wherever you last saw your heart
It sings in a whisper, it creeps like a victor
The ache pulls us apart
If the silence doesn't get to us, the flame from afar surely will
Contempt breeds so slowly, it devours the holy
Watch the edge dear, we're bound to spill
We're bound to spill
It's a game of rush and roulette
Do we stay or do we go?
There's too much to carry and we cannot bury these embers as we go.
If the silence doesn't get to us, the flame from afar surely will
Contempt breeds so slowly, it devours the holy
Watch the edge dear, we're bound to spill
We're bound to spill

Rest Your Spirit
03:09
|

The door is always open
There's no need to knock
Just walk right in, baby
It's warm in here, the fire's goin'
We got nothin' to hide, nothin' to fear,
Love's on our side, you can shed your tears
Come on home, and rest your spirit with me
Come on home, rest your spirit for me
Come on home, you can put your faith in me now
Lay it down, lay it all down
Cause some days your feet are gonna hit the ground
But come on home and rest your spirit with me
I know you feet are tired
I can see it in your eyes
Cause' you've been fightin' battles
And ooo, I hear your battle cries
Cause deep in your heart, there's a torch that feels heavy
Well, hand it to me, hand it to me,
I will learn how to carry
Just come on home, you can put your faith in me now
Come on home, rest your spirit with me
Lay it down, lay it all down
Cause some days your feet are gonna hit the ground
But come on home and rest your spirit with me

Song I Will Forget
05:13
|
|||
Pour me a glass of champagne
Perhaps make it whiskey,
It's not too late
Night's purple glow is still young yet
Sing me a song I will forget
See I, I remember spring
I smell the flowers, I hear the bells ring
I've lived through another lonely sunset
Can you sing me a song that I will forget?
Make it sweet like Cole Porter, but soft on the rhyme
Sing it slow and easy, all I have is time
My memories are too swift to recall
I need arms to help, to help ease the fall
Draw all the curtains and dim the lights
We begin to dance, we will give in to the night
One more draw off of you cigarette,
Then we'll sing a song we will forget

Jupiter
03:18
|
|||
You sent me a sign tonight
Pinned up by the moon
You begged the flood
You turned the tide
I left too soon
Oh, Jupiter
Can we turn back time?
Or, Jupiter
Release this heart of mine?
Take me back, I'll jump with both feet in the water
Take me back, I will dive into the deep
Take me back, I will run with arms wide open
Straight back to you,
Straight back to you
Oh, Jupiter.
All the doors, the paths, the roads
I had to choose.
I rolled the dice, I played the odds,
I was bound to lose
Oh, Jupiter
Can we turn back time?
Or, Jupiter
Release this heart of mine?
Take me back, I'll jump with both feet in the water
Take me back, I will dive into the deep
Take me back, I will run with arms wide open
Straight back to you,
Straight back to you

In Some Other Life
03:55
|
|||
November's in the air
All the leaves of gold are scattered everywhere
And still my heart longs for you
Underneath this canopy of hue
The whirlwinds in the sky
Just remind me of how quickly the days fly
Just like sunlight through the leaves
Stolen by the moon's thieves
In some other life, you fell in love with me
In some other life, you'd feel the way that I do
In some other life, the glances weren't stolen
In some other life, my heart isn't broken
The crimson leaves so bold,
They bring with them the chill of winter's cold
And my heart will long for you
And my heart will long for you

Stay
03:06
|
|||
You are welcome at this table
You are welcome to the wine
Come sit beside me,
Drink in the fire
Though the days seems rather long
We know that years fly by
Stay for a while
Will you stay for a while?
I won't read you the old letters,
Please don't sing me our old song
Time seems too precious to look back for too long
Let the dust settle on the ground
What was lost has now been found
Stay for a while
Will you stay for a while?
Oh forgiveness courses through your veins, courses through mine
We'll need each other,
The water's bound to rise
Stand on the bridge we built so long ago
Let the tide come and go
It will come and it will go,
But we'll stay for a while
You are welcome at this table
You can have this heart of mine
Come sit beside me
Take in the night
Fear may tell us lies in our sleep
But we know the sun will rise
And we'll stay for a while.
We will stay for a while.

Rivers
03:17
|
|||
Lyrics written by e.h.
Bring the moon o'er the meadows as you settle down the sun
And we'll go dancing in the dark racing rivers as they run
For the heart always needs places no one else know that you are
So that you may sew yourself a new
'Neath a blanket made of stars
Then in the morning, like all rivers,
We'll find our footprints by the sea
At last you will be you and I can finally feel like me

The Finish Line
06:03
|
|||
It's a race to the end
A line that keeps on moving, moving, moving
Like it's drawn in sand
Like it's drawn in sand
I steal time from fate
Time that keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking
I am running late
I am running late
Minutes to hours,
Hours to days,
They're fleeting
Days into months and
Months into years,
They're fleeting.
