Tanglewood

Tanglewood

The evening goes and the morning comes...
Still half-dreaming and still full feeling...
You against mine and mine against yours...
Our legs and arms are one and entwined.

Don't take leave, just take my heart.
Yeah, make love one more time and never may part from our Tanglewood.

I see you like you've never been seen before...
You see me like a child,
until I look into your eyes and you feel my hand, then you see your man...you see your man.
I don't want to get out of bed and into my head...
To ask the questions with no answers, only wanting more time instead, in our Tanglewood.

Don't take leave, just take my heart.
Yeah, make love one more time and never may part from our Tanglewood.

The Wind Won't Let Me Forget

The Wind Won't Let Me Forget

Another long night into my dreams.
I take your hand but it fades out of reach.
Oh, but you don't know, because you're gone and you will never return to me, but the Wind won't let me forget.

I drive my car onto the highway.
No matter how far, it's not far enough.
Oh, but you don't know, because you've left me for new horizons and new sunsets, but the Wind won't let me forget.

Under the stars I've taken you.
Over the waters I fly to your arms, for just another wonderful moment, but you're not there,
You're gone and you'll never return to me,
But the Wind won't let me forget.

Wildfire

Wildfire

Wildfire why are you burning for me?
High winds blow over the embers of your love.
Wildfire why are you burning for me?
You're gonna leave nothing but ashes in your wake.
Wildfire are you burning for me?
I’ve got nothing left to burn.

The Lightning

The Lightning

I see you. I see the light in your eyes, the dark earth and blue skies, that softly kiss your cheek.
I touch you. I touch the side of your face, your hand, our fingers embrace, pulling you close.
I hold you. I hold you in the dark, the rhythm and the spark that makes Us one and all we have is this time together in our little world.
I walk with you. We walk stride by stride, burning down from within to the tall hills surrounding our hearts.
I taste you. Your lips are like warm rain falling in the high desert of my pain that I didn't even know I had.
I love you. Like thunder from the sky, without warning, without knowing why.

The lightning strikes my soul, but this feeling leaves me cold, for I know that you will always be a part of me, but you're not mine.

Open Road, Open Arms

Open Road Open Arms

It's two o'clock at night, though some of you might say it's morning...I gotta long drive ahead of me and I probably will see the first light...
But I don't mind this rollin'... 'cause I know you will be with me... Your open road and open arms.
I can still remember my first cross-country journey. Driving across those yellow wheat fields by the South Dakota state line.
I was just three years old looking out my window, little did I know you would be with me...Your open road and open arms.

Open road and open arms...

I've driven a good piece of this world and some of you might say I'm crazy...that my favorite place to be is really not a place at all,
'Cause this lone stretch of the highway, it holds all my life for me...it's open road and open arms.

Open road and open arms...

Your open road...

She Is Sleeping, He Is Dreaming

She Is Sleeping, He Is Dreaming....

Shadowland

A red sky in the morning, so do good and throw it to the sea.
Uncertainty comes from the past, one must love their weakness to be free.

Shadowland. Leap into the dark. Shadowland. Deep into your heart.

After midnight there is no law after 3 am there is no God.
Love and hate bind you to an endless star.
Your voice is a rope around my heart.

Shadowland. Leap into the dark. Shadowland. Deep into your heart.

Beyond all light, beyond the Seven Stars, beauty and terror beat our hearts.
Shadows can be seen in the light, in the light.

Shadowland. Leap into the dark. Shadowland. Deep into your heart.

What Is To Come

A highway in the wilderness, wayfaring and wandered.
Blood and fire is your desert stream,
Light and shadow is your desert in me.

Within us is the way, what is to come, who's to say.
Love against love, day against day, what is to come.

Shake the dusted land from my feet.
A land where light casts no shadow.
If you want to see, you must close your eyes.
A flickering borderline to the living mind.

Within us is the way, what is to come, who's to say.
Love against love, day against day, what is to come.

Three Snake Leaves

There's a woman, she spoke to me from beyond the sea,
Where black waves and red foam bleed.
She said, "Earthen Man, to see the world from a stranger's eyes,
You must first die a little to let them inside."

As far as the sky is blue.

Truth, truth is a pathless land
Nowhere to tread, nowhere to stand,
Don't bother reaching out, it won't take your hand.

As far as the sky is blue.

Woman, oh woman, everything moves at the mercy of the sea.
Twice more she'll come and then she'll be gone.
Three Snake Leaves will bring her back to me.
Flying two ravens, Thought and Memory.
Eleven Poison Rivers and Nine Misty Worlds
I will cross to take you into my arms.

As far as the sky is blue.

If Leaves Were Tongues

Four and twenty black birds flying in the sky.
Trying to remember if I will see them again and why?
The birds begin to sing to a silvery Sun.
Splayed fingers spill unto the ground to hold us up, and to hold us down.

If leaves were tongues, they would tell you a secret.
If leaves were tongues, they would fall down on your lips.
If leaves were tongues, they would take you into their mouth, and spit you out.

All the Gods and Monsters, Man puts them in his pocket.
Nothing told him to do it, and nothing will stop it.
Necks ribboned in red, eyes blinded in black.
Hold my hand as we walk into the place, the place we're not coming back.

If leaves were tongues, they would tell you a secret.
If leaves were tongues, they would fall down on your lips.
If leaves were tongues, they would take you into their mouth, and spit you out.

As The Crow Flies

"As the crow flies...", she said.
Straight into your heart with no regret.
"As the love died..", we said.
The change will do us good,
The change will do us quick and clean.
Change.

Flying and diving with death-defying bliss.

Like an ocean she is.
Deep and beautiful and she'll swallow you whole.
Black as the night it is.
The color of creation, and the iris inside your soul.
So you can look into the mirror and see where you came from,
 And where you'll go.
Go.

Flying and diving with death-defying bliss.
s the crow flies...
