Darker Smoke

See my eyes
See the movement
See your hand
Next to mine
Watch the sun
It's always moving
See my eyes
See my eyes
See the smoke
See the ashes
Blacken my home
And the sun
Take a walk
Clear your head now
It's almost done
It's almost done

Perfect

He says you're perfect
And she says:
That can't be!
Nothing's perfect
Especially me
She says you're older
And he says:
What else would I be?
When you're older,
There's more you can see
He says you're perfect
And she says:
That can't be
He says you're lonely
And she says:
You can't see!
I can't be lonely
When you're with me

I don't know what I saw
I never knew you for long
Got lost in the mountain sky
The stars so bright
In the backwoods, my home
That's where I sang my songs
In the valley, in the cold
That's where my heart you stole
In the mountains, my car
That's where we watched the stars and
You could've loved me, I thought
What did Rachel know?
What do you think she saw?
Some kind of foreign light
Deep down in my eyes
Whispered secrets in my ears
Tell me everything I need to hear
Another love song, so dear
Hides everything I really fear
In the backwoods, my home
That's where we sang my songs and
You could've loved me, I thought

Rain Day
05:42
|

|
Winter, woke up, and hid in the fields
Summer, stood by, and tried not to judge
Autumn, languished, and lay in the leaves
Spring time, just cried, and wished it would rain
Too much of a little bit
Too much
Too much of a little bit
Too much
Its a rain day
She says,
She says,
She has everything
But I watch,
I watch,
And I see
Too much of a little bit
Too much
Too much of a little bit
Too much
I'll go out on a rainy day
I'll always dance on a rainy day
I'll go out on a rainy day
I'll always dance on a rainy day

Take out the myths
Sweet Elizabeth
The doctors won't say
They won't say
Take out the myths
Sweet Elizabeth
To me you're not wasting away
To me you're not wasting away
We could run away
Sail across the sea
We could run away
Find another dream
Take out the myths
Sweet Elizabeth
The doctors won't say
They won't say
Take out the myths
Sweet Elizabeth
To me you're not wasting away
To me you're not wasting away

Oh My Rachel
04:17
|

|
Light through the window ends the night
I can see the tears in your eyes
What we had could never be the same
We've moved on to another frame
Some say that love is in the soul
But some of us have another goal
And sometimes we can't let it die
But we kill it faster when we try
Oh my Rachel, don't go
It hit me harder then you know
Oh my Rachel, don't go
This isn't the song that I wrote
You know that lately you're in my dreams
Where nothing is what it seems
And in the midst of all your light
There is a darkness out of sight
So I guess you really ought to go
I think that now we both know
But if time can really heal
You could come back and keep our deal
Oh my Rachel, don't go
It hit me harder then you know
Oh my Rachel, don't go
This isn't the song I wrote

My Darling, My Heart
03:09
|
|||
|
Tough patience, repeated dreams
I waited for time to heal me
Late prayers, bitter questions
Where else else could I point my affections?
Open eyes, late night silence
I tried to think but now in the past tense
Tire eyes, worn out mind
What kind of peace can I find when...
My darling, I miss you're light
My heart, my sweet delight
Though wisdom is what I lack
All I want is to have you back
I want you back
I tried so hard to understand
That the devil never had a healing hand
But I reach out for forgiveness
Are you convinced that all love is a sickness?
Why look back to the shadows?
Waves crashed us all down in the shallows
Forget him, forgive yourself!
My darling, I miss your light
My heart, my sweet delight
Though wisdom is what I lack
All I want is to have you back
I want you back

Dear Old Saints
03:30

Dear old saints with canes and hats,
You'll never last
My daughter bows while on the stage
Not afraid
Heaven smiles when you say,
Another day
I could smile and let it in,
Another win!
Dear old saints where will you go?
What could you know?
My daughter shares a wink,
A smile too!

Wait in the light
Your worry...
Your worry is all I see
Living your life
You see me...
You see me well be yourself
And all I see
Is what I'll be
And all I know
Is what I'm told
Late in the night
The faces...
The faces you never liked
Shake the lies
Your worry...
Your worry is not to be
And all I know
Is what I'm told
And all I see
Is me today
And all I'll see
Is what I'll be
And all I know
Is what I'm told
And all I see
Is me today

My Dear
Where did it go?
My Dear
What did we know?
When we look
Its always back
From where we came
My Love
How could this be the end?
My Love
The time that we shared
Will never really go away
Cause when we look
Its always back
From where we came
My friend
I'm looking back again
My friend
What once was the end
Will never get old you know
Cause when we look
Its always back
From where we came
