You're my friend in the afternoon
Evening comes I don't know what to do You're my friend in the evening Morning comes I don't know what to do Been spending nights with a burned out crowd Dead end bar in a no-name town Been spending days listing my regrets Quit smoking after each cigarette You're the hit on the radio New hits come I don't know what to do Graduate from college I'm 22, I don't know what to do Been working nights on a different job Just count the minutes til sunrise Been spending days sleeping til supper Just don't ask me what day it is You're the talk of the town tonight When the talk is gone I don't know what to do You're the woman I dream of When the dream is gone I don't know what to do Been spending nights on a different bed Alarm goes off in the morning Been spending days wondering just what I've said Keeps me wandering around Been spending years trying to figure you out Same old face in the mirror Always hanging on with the same old crowd No name bar in a dead end town |

I see you two times a month
At the bar or around town We have lots of common friends But we don't talk too much of them At your apartment it gets late The bus is gone but the taxi waits Should we go down to 2nd street Or just stay here because that scene is beat When 24 turned 25 There's so much pressure in these times To be something that you don't When 24 turned 25 Just try to hold your head up high Why... I don't really know When 24 turned 25 Make this the best time in your life Why... I don't really know |

Dream, are you a dreamer?
Are you a dreamer? Do you dream? Sleep, are you a sleeper? Are you a sleeper? Do you sleep? When your brown eyes close Do blue skies open up? When your breathing slows Your mind run fast and free? Will you sleep and dream with me? Love, are you my lover? Are you my lover? Do you love me? Save, are you a savior? Are you a savior? Will you save? When my blue eyes close Will white clouds lift me up? When my body slows My mind run fast and free? Do you hold me when I sleep? Do you hold me when I sleep? When your brown eyes close Do blue skies open up? When your breathing slows Your mind run fast and free? Will you sleep and dream with me? Will you sleep and dream with me? Water, I?m walking on water Walking on water for you. |

Read the letter that you sent, but I can't
I was talking to our friends, but I'm stressed Give me back a day, I know which one Where the pink light of your room Matched the pink light of the summer Are you lonely, 'cause I've been lonely Are you tired, 'cause I've been tired Another late night on the phone To remind you just how close we've grown The drive to Michigan holds weight in me Thought of someplace I could be myself Though the Midwest feels so tired and scattered We were hurt before, but that doesn't matter anymore, now Are you lonely, 'cause I've been lonely Are you tired, 'cause I've been tired Another late night in the car To remind you just how close we are Since you've been away Every day's a phone call, it's an exit sign How long will you stay? How long will it be until you come back again? Are you lonely, 'cause I've been lonely Are you tired, 'cause I've been tired Another late night in your room To remind you of the lengths gone to |

I need to take a look before you go away
Before I spend my time with what I need to say But you're so free around everyone but me It's the city lights, and it's a New York sky You don't want to hear, 'cause I'm not ever right You should be with anyone but me Then we talk around everything We talk, talk, talk around everything I need to hear a word before you go away I need to hear a word before you go away You're so free around everyone but me And then we talk around everything We talk, talk, talk around everything We talk around everything We talk, talk, talk around everything Talk around everything You talk, talk, talk around everything |

Sense of home is all of this and more
Voice of love flies just beyond the door Contemplating, I no longer change Built my hope according to the day Beautiful boys and girls Beautiful broken world Beautiful boys and girls God if I pray, so long so loud It's that most days you don't make a sound Sense of home was lost along the way Naked bodies buried in my veins Nations rise and buckle in the weight Homesick for the words I couldn't place Beautiful boys and girls Beautiful broken world Beautiful boys and girls God if I pray, so long so hard It's that most days you don't make a sound When you find me at the well Will you comfort me until Will you recognize my face And replace, change Beautiful boys and girls Beautiful broken world |

(Gram Parsons)
Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes Warm evenings, pale mornings, bottle of blues And the tiny golden pins that she wore up in her hair Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes My mind was young until she grew My secret thoughts known only by the few It was a dream much to real to be leaned against too long All the time I think she knew Her words still dance inside my head Her comb still lies beside my bed And the sun comes up without her It just doesn't know she's gone But I remember everything she said I remember every word she said All the time I think she knew Brass buttons, green silks and silver shoes |

I hear you calling me by name
You come around the corner smiling again And I know you're feeling better And so the sun might turn to rain The clouds will come together over us again And they will soak us to our bone Comfort our thoughts when we're feeling down Say what we need until we come around As a matter of fact As a matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life I'm going back now to the time When we sat out all night and looked to the sky And dreamed it would be our escape And so that night did turn to day The sun so bright and warm would make its way inside of me Send a shiver through my bone Comfort my thoughts when I'm feeling down Say what I need until I come around It's the matter of fact that A matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life I don't know what I'm doing now I don't know what I'm doing now I make myself so sick inside my bones Comfort my thoughts when I'm feeling down Say what I need until I come around You're the matter of fact that A matter of these times When we're all feeling It's getting hard to breathe in this life |

She's the kind of girl that tends to brown
freckles on her elbows and her knees And I'm the boy that passes through these towns I leave before we find out what it means I'll send a letter addressed to you it says you're my California brown and blue Another chorus line gives into waves it fades away So I push through another hotel door and I pull back the bed sheets till they break and I sleep so hard I don't even dream weightless in the arms of Golden Gate The only music I want to hear is the sound of the last light left dissapears Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away dada dada dada dada dada dada I'll send a letter addressed to you it says you're my California brown and blue Another chorus line gives in to waves it says your my California Golden Gate The only music I want to hear is the sound of the last light that disapears Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away Another songbird gives up it's wings it fades away |

There's a dream I have,
it comes back when all the days turn into one. I'm in a coat and hat, and I'm standing on the coast of England. With a castle and cathedral on the sand, I reached down to touch the water with my hand. Then you turn and say to me, "You've been talking in your sleep, What did you see? What does it mean?" I was a photograph of our daytrip from the window of a train. The one we cut in half. I kept mine and made a bookmark on a page. It fell out today as I was getting packed. Have I left you here more times than I've come back? Like that snowfall out of reach, we kept our details underneath, once made of stone, we went for broke. I didn't know. Are you a dreamer? |

How many special people change?
How many lives are living strange? Where were you while we were getting high? Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannonball Where were you while we were getting high? Someday you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova in the Sky Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova in the sky Wake up the dawn and ask her why A dreamer dreams she never dies Wipe that tear away now from your eye Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannonball Where were you while we were getting high? Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova in the sky Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova 'Cause people believe that they're Gonna get away for the summer But you and I, we live and die The world's still spinning round We don't know why Why, why, why, why How many special people change? How many lives are living strange? Where were you while we were getting high? Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannonball Where were you while we were getting high?

Follow the river sound
Taking the words from our mouths We have a long way to go We both know You'll be alright You'll be alright Chesapeake watershed Blue tower overhead Cul-de-sac road My father's home Awake through the night Awake through the night Linens and cedar chests Notepads and instruments Weeks in a row I stayed alone I'll be alright I'll be alright |

Light another candle in my room
Live another season straight through You're the one that makes me feel nice From all the things you said tonight Early in the morning the streets Run across the shadows of trees But we just stayed inside and lost time We talked until we lost track of time Even in the songs that I sing Do you fear the history they bring? Sleeping with my head in your arms You're the one that keeps me from harm Early in December this year The biggest moon fell broken and clear West of where our city lies still Over there on Chestnut Hill Philadelphia streets turned to ice And my bed felt empty those nights Sleeping with my head on your chest You're the one that knew me the best You were there so long You were there for so long Will you come back? Maybe it's in you that I saw All the hope I thought I had lost Sleeping with my head in your arms You're the one that kept me from harm |

Downtown in the fall
Across the sidewalks Leaves will all make fossils left behind Balancing your life This way against mine I know you're in me somewhere I have the marks to prove of this Closer to the sun Out in the open farm To the reason of this growing I will come And you will be near And I am not old When we are close together, we are young If I had no arms to fold into If I had joys to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine Far from everyone Down where the river runs To the reason for this valley I will come And wash myself there Of all of my cares Through mystery and water there is love There is love If I had no arms to fold into If I had joys to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine If I had no arms to fold into If I had joy to breathe back to you Surely this would slow the life of mine Surely this could stop the love of mine |

I'm catching the view Where Queen Streets meets Chestnut One block west of you The strange conversations will set your heart free Our strange conversations lift burdens from me My friend Come back again Now we're back in my place With Morsey on play And you missed your riddlin You're truest when Our strange conversations will leave us amused You're faster and clearer, you seem less confused My friend What you're impressed by I get depressed by What we rely on Is our strength we get by on |

Center City on a bus
Feelings change from want to must So I pushed the meaning to it all I carry you from place to place said, "This is how I spend my days, Do you understand my shape, my form?" Do I really have to let you go Not if I don't want to Last night spent on the couch Felt your heartbeat pounding out Sounds like someone's footsteps on the floor I dreamt we walked from room to room Opened doors into those parts of you All the memories that I have of us before Do I really have to let you go Do I really have to When someone you love dies You never question where they've gone Like landscapes under snow They're blocks you build more life upon They're the corner of your eye Their quiet arms still comfort you Do I really have to Do I really have to let you go Do I really have to |

Skipping like a stone,
across the bluest pools of what I know. Don't know where to go. Each one leaves a mark, circles through the dark and sinks into the place I need you most. As far as the east from the west they say. I should know my east from west I know. As far as the east from the west they say. And I am only human anyway. Now for all your cares, Put them in the air that I breathe in until you tell me "no". And for the smallest hands, Put them in my hand and I walk on until you say "let go". As far as the east from the west they say. I should know my east from west I know. As far as the east from the west they say. And I am only human anyway. I am only human anyway. |

My room has a big white bed
Pictures on the mirrors Books that last a year Everything but sleep Don't you know? Nothing won't fit under there The Dowmaker's ghost A heavenly host Everything but sleep Don't you know? Everything but sleep Where does it go? Everything but sleep On it goes... If it weren't for you I could be anywhere I'd rather be here Don't you know? Now that I know I'll never feel the same way Everything but sleep Don't you know? Everything but sleep On it goes On it goes... |

(Jackson Browne)
In my early years I hid my tears And passed my days alone Adrift on an ocean of loneliness My dreams like nets were thrown To catch the love that I'd heard of In books and films and songs There's a world of illusion and fantasy In the place where the real world belongs Now I look for the beauty in songs To fill my head and lead me on Though my dreams have come up torn and empty As many times as love has come and gone To those gentle ones my memory runs To the laughter we shared at the meals I filled their kitchens and living rooms With my dreams and my broken wheels It was never clear how far or near The gates to my citadel lay They were cutting from stone some dreams of their own But they listened to mine anyway I'm not sure what I'm trying to say It could be I've lost my way Though I keep a watch over the distance Heaven's no closer than it was yesterday And the angels are older They know not to wait up for the sun They look over my shoulder At the maps and the drawings of the journey I've begun Now the distance leads me farther on Though the reasons I once had are gone I keep thinking I'll find what I'm looking for In the sand beneath the dawn And the angels are older They can see that the sun's setting fast They look over my shoulder At the vision of paradise Contained in the light of the past And they lay down behind me To sleep beside the road Till the morning has come Where they know they will find me With my maps and my faith in the distance Moving farther on |

Daniel and for everything this year
I never meant to pull your strings so hard In a room with just a door to where you slept If you only heard the secrets that i kept I'm sorry things i said, hurt you bad I'm sorry things i've did, made you sad Do you think i'll be forgiven? Do you think i'll be forgiven? And it shouldn't have to be so hard to say And i know that i don't have to use big words And the longer i wait it gets hard to say And i know that i don't have to use big words I thought about the day when we first me I knew from there on out you'd be my friend Do you think i'll be forgiven? Do you think i'll be forgiven? I'm sorry things i said, hurt you bad I'm sorry things i've did, made you sad Do you think i'll be forgiven? Do you think i'll be forgiven? |

Mary, you are the bird inside the hand
of St. Francis in the garden where he stands. Handwriting, a birth mark, and a quilt, mother to my mother and to me. And to me. Mary, you are the mason jars in spring, the kitchen with the view across a hill. First memory is a Bible verse in song, the organ while my family sings along. We sing along. And on the calendar when I leave a little note for you, so you see when I'm gone, I never go too far. Your heart is my heart, your blood, my blood. When I'm gone, I never get too far. Mother to my mother and to me. |

( River Bends EP )
You don't feel at home Underneath our Pennsylvania sky Covered in guitars Deep inside the music There's a place for you Your parents and your friends You don't think that we know how you feel Waving to your car If we had our choice we'd go along with you We could take a drive Cities and street lights Pass you by We could take a drive You should give your heart Healing time I have been where you are I am well aware that there is hurt That never goes away I have been with you Things I know will not let your hurt carry you Where the river bends I would like to take you there on Sunday I think it would be good For you to watch the quiet water move |

I'm not questioning the way I move
I left here for Wisconsin on a Sunday With practiced inability Together what comes close to me I always choose to leave Dreaming but indifferent at best I laid down in the kitchen With the pain across my chest Desire to be simplified The way your stoneholds heat at night There's nothing left to prove And this is how I learn to be alone Story of my life is yours to share A pendulum that swings Across so many things So I will always be first to leave I'm not questioning the things you do Go out all night with strangers on a Friday My practiced insecurity Put prison walls around you So I know you had to leave Proud and independent at your best You curled up with a novel And a sweater on your chest Desire to be rectified The footend of your bed replies, "There's space for you to move" And this is how you learn to be alone Story of your life is mine to share A pendulum that swings You lost so many things So you will always be the first to leave And this is how we learn to be alone The story of our lives is ours to share A pendulum that swings We love so many things So we will always be the first to leave We will always be the first to leave |

6 floors up and 2 doors down again
She misses her family in Japan The window stand in silence in the all The side of the Drake Tower say it all Place all that wait on me And i won't let you down I won't lets you down I see it gets hard to stay around You and i are like this fallen leaves Let go by the streets named after trees We circle people we do and don't know It's so hard to never feel alone Place all that wait on me And i won't let you down I won't lets you down I see it gets hard to stay around place all that wait on me And i won't let you down I see it get hard to stay around |

This cannot be real
Looking out into the cold This window holds a view Of you and I and growing old I would call you now If i had strength on telephones I would call you now And say the words to bring you home This cannot be real Looking out into the rain This window holds a view Of you and I and how things change I would call you now If you weren't sleeping three hours from here I would call you now And sing the words that bring you near I would call you now If you weren't sleeping three hours from here So lay your sweet head down And dream of me So far yet near |

Are you walking with your eyes closed
No, I'm wide awake Are you sorry for the others I'm carrying the weight I was hoping that you'd turn around And you'd show me the way Are you walking with your eyes closed No, I feel wide awake By the time I reached the gateway Nothing felt as right I see oil in the water Darkness in the light Though I know the time is only time A place is just a place And A body just a body A face only it's face If you are the water, I am the waves If you are the writer, I am the page If you are the fire, I am the rage You left a light on, in the back of my mistakes If you are the water, I am the waves If you are the writer, I am the page If you are the fire, I am the rage You left a light on, in the back of my mistakes |

Isn't it poetry
Isn't it poetry Words forces into space I finally know the way I follow works most days Hazel Avenue If lies are blue The truth feels grey Isn't it poetry Singing a harmony Singing a harmony To words that I misplace Strawberry blond and free To follow words away Hazel Avenue The lines were true Somehow erased Isn't it poetry Isn't it poetry Turn your leaves towards heaven Trap your blooms It's a sign the flood is coming soon Our eyes filled with water to, back to I hope someone saves you, saves me too From all of this poetry Isn't it poetry Isn't it poetry Isn't it poetry When you think you've had too much There's still more to come It all keeps adding up When you think you've had too much There's still more to come Keep your heart full of love |

(The Band)
It makes no difference where I turn I can't get over you when the flame still burns It makes no difference night or day The shadow never seems to fade away And the sun don't shine anymore And the rains fall down on my door It makes no difference how far I go Like a scar, the hurt will always show It makes no difference who I meet They're just a face in the crowd on a dead-end street And the sun don't shine anymore And the rains fall down on my door Now there's no love As true as the love That dies untold But the clouds Never hung so low Before Without your love, I'm nothing at all Like an empty hall, it's a lonely fall And the sun don't shine anymore And the rains fall down on my door I love you so much It's all I can do Just to keep myself from telling you That I never felt so alone before That I never felt so alone before |

I've got more important things
Than shiny diamond rings And modern furniture Life before aesthetics was A nail hole in a wall A borrowed comforter Now I wait until the sound As if I never drowned in my addition I'm not saying that it's right But waking through the night I felt it coming And it crossed my heart When did all this start Stand together, fall apart And it crossed my heart Hear the oceans as they sing The mountains and the spring And all it means to me Life before aesthetics is A mindset that imparts impossibilities Still I waste the chance to give As if I've never lived throughout deletion (?) I'm not telling you it's right But waking through the night I felt it happen And it crossed my heart When did all this start Fall together, stand apart And it crossed my heart And it crossed my heart I've got more important things Than shiny diamond rings And modern furniture. When did all this start Life before aesthetics was A nail hole in a wall A borrowed comforter Stand together, fall apart Hear the oceans as they sing The mountains and the spring And all it means to me And it crossed my heart Life before aesthetics is A mindset that imparts impossibilities |

How you found me out I still never understand,
Thoughts you can't take with you when you go. You were waving flags that bare the colors Of your love I didn't know: Orange for the vineyards, Blue is for the rivers, Green goes like a hillside covered now, White is not surrender Despite what you've been told; It's clouds of hope That fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now. One time we met, you were outside Floating in the forest. I placed my stigmata On your hands. Little flowers that you have sown Show people you have known that I am love and Fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now. And fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you now, save you now. Fall on you, fall on you now, save you now. |

It doesn't matter which way you face me
North, east, west, or south Put your hands in my two hands Your mouth against my mouth We will lean into the sun Drive without your seatbelt on Come on This city's made of beer These streets are made of wine Her bed is whiskey And her pillow out of grey The smoke that moves across her eyes Like clouds go through the skies I lay down I've been looking for you I've been wandering through the dark I've been looking for you I've been looking for you Where the train breaks from the ground Just north of Second Street Can't watch it seated down I stand on my two feet I like the light there through the window The light goes over me And around I've been looking for you I've been wandering through the dark I've been looking for you I've been wandering through the dark I've been looking for you I've been looking for you It's not so easy if you want to disappear If you don't believe me, stop Ask anybody here How this city has a way Trying to kick you when you're down I got out I've been looking for you I've been wandering through the dark I've been looking for you I've been wandering through the dark I've been looking for you I've been looking for you |

I remember thinking
That you'd never leave Praying in your bedroom Before I fell asleep I still feel the moment When you came alive Like a poem about springtime Nothing to hide All of these homes Are lined up so straight But here on the inside It's not that way I gave you my life and more From sadness to sunshine, I'm yours, I'm your lost happiness Up in your Los Angeles sky Lately I've been thinking That you'll never know If you don't mark the way back The further you go Lately I've been feeling Like I'm the bright star That fell behind the mountain of feeling you are |
