Two Things
03:57

Carry me weightless
Over black shining waters
Baby I’m coming
baby I’m coming home
You know where to find me
I’ll be out in the waves
All you have to do is call
Call my name
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
The moon is half full
But we won’t catch her
Turn the lights down
Just you
You and me dancing
This life is a mystery
And I try to crack the puzzle
Clear through the heart
and give it a melody
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
We took a beautiful turn
let the bass drum ring
Shook the dust from the raters
And the heat
The heat from our bones
I hear you singing darlin’
Don’t worry I hear you
Singing songs of love
You're here
You're here with me now
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
I came here for two things
To be love and to sing
So carry me weightless
Over black shining waters
Baby I’m coming
Baby I’m coming home

Josephine

Steady the hand Josephine
100 feet down the ravine
11 days missing on the mountain
Still can’t see how we lost you
Found in you green satin dress
Bare feet stained with black ashes
Now I can hear the pigeons cry
On the cathedral steps
Of Mexico City
The fading light
Of falling stars
Crowns your head
Like it crowns my heart
Lost your wings in the storm
shadows took too many forms
Tranquilizers and brown liquor
Couldn’t keep the memory at bay
Found in you green satin dress
Bare feet stained with black ashes
Now I can hear the pigeons cry
On the cathedral steps
Of Mexico City
When the night wind
Rushes the cold pines
In a dream we are children
Playing at the river
Shining Crow Woman
Shakes the window and cries
And my heart is tied to your heart
burning bright and far away
The fading light
Of falling stars
Crown your head
Like they crown my heart
The fading light
Of falling stars
Crown your head
Like they crown my heart
Steady the hand Josephine
100 feet down the ravine
11 days missing on the mountain
Still can’t see how we lost you

Speed of Light
05:04
|
|
||
Bellied up to the bar
Baseball cap pulled tight
Shots of jack, lined up
Like bowling ball pins
You’re ready to strike
It’s 2pm at the Malibu Inn
Can’t get lost in this two lane town
And loneliness keeps crashing
Like the waves outside the door
We’re traveling at the speed of light
It’s these laws of thermodynamics
Keep me up at night
I find myself humming a tune
My momma sang to rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
You pick up the tab
So I stay for a beer
We both need to talk
Anonymous and clear
I talk about Danny
How he died at 8 months old
You asked If I believe in life after death
We’re traveling at the speed of light
these laws thermodynamics
keep up at night
I find myself humming the tune
my momma sang
to rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
I know your words by heart
I learned ‘em when I was 13
Last Monday Lucinda sang it
Almost sweetly
I know your words by heart
I learned ‘em when I was 13
Last Monday Lucinda sang it
Almost sweetly
Now you’re traveling at the speed of light
These laws thermodynamics
Keep up at night
I find myself humming a tune
My momma sang to rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet
To rock me quiet

Before the Spark
03:57
|
|
||
I hear the night bird sing, in the Joshua tree
The song her heart wants to bring
In a honey voice, rings out the plain
A love so big, she has many names
Take these wings I don’t want them back
Believe the spark that strikes the match
There’s a soul fire here
And we gather around
To sing the songs
Of everything made in
The dark before the spark
Never could say how much I felt
Grateful to be here with everyone else
Spinning round on this cosmic dance floor
I could spend it all with you
and still want more
Take these wings I don’t want them back
Believe the spark when it strikes the match
There’s a soul fire here
And we gather around
To sing the songs
Of everything made in
The dark before the spark
It’s a sweet tune baby when you cross my mind
Not a soul in this world can turn back time
No telling how many days we hold
But there’s a few things I know
You can
Take these wings I don’t want them back
Believe the spark when it strikes the match
There’s a soul fire here
And we gather around to sing
The songs of everything made in
The dark before the spark
The dark before the spark
The dark before the spark

Camino
03:33

Apples in the fall, oranges at the border
Lettuce from Salinas to El Centro California
Rise before the sun at the sharp edge of night
Grapevine knuckles hold the wheel steady
While the kids sleep in the dash light
Black snake
Heavy road
The bells fly fast
On the camino
Coffee burnt strong like the warm skin of summer
Palettes piled high too many rows to number
Bandanas 3 for 5 at the gas station
Buy the kids fresh pomegranates
And the seeds stain their smiling faces
Black snake
Heavy road
The bells fly fast
On the camino
Rain travels the ridge but never dares cross the mountain
We all take our share from the golden fountain
Wire home some money, the neon lights yellow and blue
From Rosarita to Sonoma
The cactus flower is in bloom
Black snake
Heavy road
The bells fly fast
On the camino
