"Lovely"
Will the sun come to the rescue
interrupt this heavy night, and chase away the shadows?
Will the moon rise out of her sorrow
and cast a light of her own?
And will you ever see that part of me?
You could find shelter in the very heart of me...
Will the gods look down in kindness
on the sinners below?
Especially the one with the smoke-ring halo...
Will the souls that wander the earth
ever find what they're looking for
and satisfy their thirst?
And will you ever see that part of me?
You could find shelter in the very heart of me...
We could be lovely...
We could be lovely...
We could be lovely...

"Do Ya Know?"
I see your dreams
And they make perfect sense to me
Do you mind if I tag along?
You’re the brightest thing I've seen
And yes I know you’re right
And you’re not the phony kind
Sometime I should tell you
All about the phony kind
Is it really believing
When you know in your soul?
Do you have to believe,
Or do you just know?
Do ya just know?
I used to be so sure
So centered and confident
I don’t know, I don’t know
If I can drum that up anymore
And I could see with one look from you
My relation to the line
I've been well-beyond it many times
And I always laugh at that particular smile
Is it really believing
When you know in your soul?
Do you have to believe,
Or do you just know?
Do ya just know?
Do ya know ‘cos somebody told you
Or do ya just know?
Do ya know ‘cos somebody told you
Or do ya just know?
Do ya just know?

"Rusty Can"
Oh ho-wo….
Knowing what you got before it’s gone, that’s the secret of life…
Living every moment for the moment thru the passage of time…
But I have been guilty of sleep-walking through life…
And you! You have been guilty of forgetting to smile.
Oh, smile!
Now I never wanted to be that kind of a man,
Scratching for a bit of jingle with a rusty can…
It’s a rusty can…
I’m watching at a distance all these people on whom Fortune smiles,
Seems She isn’t very careful choosing who gets the easy ride…
I made a promise in my heart that I would send up my love to the sky,
Serving as a beacon for Her to see tonight…
Can you see the light?
Now I never wanted to be that kind of a man,
Scratching for a bit of jingle with a rusty can…
It’s a rusty can…
You know, I…..

"One Foot"
One foot in front of the other, brother
One foot in front of the other
The journey’s gonna take a long-long time
But I think we’re gonna be alright
Oh, I think we’re gonna be alright
I hear you’re in a heavy situation
And something’s got you hard under the thumb
I’m pretty sure you’ll fight your way to freedom
Pretty sure you will overcome
One foot in front of the other, brother
One foot in front of the other
The journey’s gonna take a long-long time
But I think we’re gonna be alright
Oh, I think we’re gonna be alright
Certain things they run a little deeper
You feel it in your heart and in your bones
You never let a bad thing come between you
You never let a good thing go
One foot in front of the other, brother
One foot in front of the other
The journey’s gonna take a long-long time
But I think we’re gonna be alright
Oh, I think we’re gonna be alright
And here we are
Kicking the blues again
And here we are
Kicking the blues again…

The Healing Comes Slow

"The Healing Comes Slow"
Slow down the world, so you can see
Where you were left so unsteady
You let it all back in your head, now you should know
The pain rushes in, and the healing comes slow…
The healing comes slow…
Had so many dreams, they all flew away
I still feel the bottomless pit in my heart today
If I could arrange for the river to turn back its flow
‘Cos I’m moving too fast, and the healing comes slow…
The healing comes slow…
How do they do it-
Everyone else in this wonderful world of pain?
I cannot believe
How they manage to carry themselves
Under so much weight
To face the world again
One thing I know…
The healing comes slow…

"The Change"
Should have been better off by now
The honey at the top don't trickle down
If only I had listened to myself
I'd be rolling in it now... rolling in it now...
The honourable way will get you nowhere
The parts you have to play distort your shape
I wriggle in and out looking for empathy...
Looking for sympathy...
Looking for anything...
Something I can save.
Ahhh... I'm ready for The Change...
Ready for The Change...
Say, mister or ma'am will you lend a hand?

"Really Being There"
Hear them ringing out, unaware of their impending fate
And I made my play, but apparently a bit too late…
You got a gift of power, I got a friend to call
And we got a love that shines like a fireball
We got a love that shines like a fireball…
But will we ever remember these dreams that we share…
Will we ever remember really being there?
Been climbing hills in the landscape of my life
Seen amazing things in the glow of the amber light
And here in the darkness, in the sanctity of the den
We hear it calling us out again… We hear it calling us out again… *
When I close my eyes… When I close my eyes…
Ooooh-ooooh… Ooooh-ooooh…

"Eat the Brains"
Throw me one last look before you go
Throw me one last look before you blow
We may never meet again
Hey, you never know
So throw me one last look before you go
Bake me one last cake before you go
And burn me one last steak before you blow
I may never eat again
I cannot work the stove
So bake me one last cake before you go
It’s a very scary world out there
Don’t be tossed among the waves
There’s a sea of arms reaching for your pockets
Zombies fresh out of the grave
You know they eat the brains
Eat the brains
The devil is no company I hear
The devil is no company I hear
He’ll make a mess of everything
And then just disappear
The devil is no company I hear
It’s a very scary world out there
Don’t be lost among the waves
There’s a sea of arms reaching for your pockets
Zombies fresh out of the grave
You know they eat the brains
Eat the brains

"The Medium Is the Message"
You are not loving nearly as much as you should
You are not giving of yourself in the ways that you could
To make everything good
This is an ocean of pivotal mutual dreams
We are in motion, our particles dance in between
Where everything is seen
And we are evolving…
We summersault into the Void
And back in the jungle, they sing of how the gods were destroyed
I am the medium, I am the message
I am the message, I am the medium…
With your mind you can hold down time for a moment
Then the river will swiftly deliver you on…
With your mind you can hold down time for a moment
Then the river will swiftly deliver you on…
Over and over and over she goes…
Over and over and over she goes…
I am the medium, I am the message
I am the message, I am the medium…

"Grandma’s Shotgun"
All I know is what I heard before
Not from the horse’s mouth
But the second-hand store
They said you are holding a grudge for some ridiculous reason
And if I should show my face it’s wide-open season
You’re camped out on the lawn
With your housecoat on
And your fuzzy slippers
And your Grandma’s shotgun
Grandma’s shotgun…
All I know is that I did something wrong
Not from what you told me
But from your latest song
You say I, I am a wolf dressed up as a sheep
And in the final verse
You’ve got me picking the wool from my teeth
Cozy under the fleece
And picking the wool from my teeth…
You’re camped out on the lawn
With your housecoat on
And your fuzzy slippers
And your Grandma’s shotgun
Grandma’s shotgun…
All in all, I guess it’s true
It’s been real nice knowing you
All in all, I guess it’s true
It’s been real nice knowing you
And your Grandma’s shotgun…
Grandma’s shotgun…
Grandma’s shotgun…

"The Hand"
Sorry, sorry, sorry-
So many spoken apologies
Does no one ever worry
About devaluing sincerity?
You pushed her to the breaking point
And just a little bit further
And if she don’t come back
I guess you didn’t deserve her
She’s ready for a new kind of love
Who knows what we can do when push comes to shove?
When push comes to shove…
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
Contusions and bruises
And the occasional rosy flow from the nose
I’d cry me an ocean
If it could take the blood out of my clothes
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
I’m ready for a new kind of love
Who knows what we can do when push comes to shove?
When push comes to shove…
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
Don’t talk to the hand unless you’re ready for the hand to talk to you…
Do ya, do ya, do ya wanna dance?
Do ya, do ya, do ya wanna dance?

"Solitary Way"
When the blue rain clouds roll into my head
I crawl into the hole again
Until they blow away
When the wind lashes out with a thousand blades
Keep your heart steady in its place
And, Love, we shall remain...
In the interim, I guess I can admit
It's a little lonely on the Solitary Way
It's a little lonely...
When the sun comes around to warming my heart
I just might fall apart
It's been a long, long time... since the sunshine...
In the interim, I guess I can admit
It's a little lonely on the Solitary Way
It's a little lonely...
When the moon swims through the Milky Way
She looks back over the day
Remembers her dreams again
And through the trees...
She smiles at me
She smiles at me...
