1.Darkest Hour
2.Touch The Stars
I hold the world right here in my hand
Read the words you wrote me and all that you said so
Hold on tight and we'll catch the wind
We'll watch it blow us high enough
Where we can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
My pockets ain't full but I do what I can
People talking at me but I don't understand yet
We're not very far if we raise our arms
And reach through the clouds high enough
Where we can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
Everyone can remember our time
Everyone can remember our time
Make it good let it shine
Make it good let it shine
I hold the world right here in my hand
Read the words you wrote me and all that you said so
Hold on tight and we'll catch the wind
We'll watch it blow us high enough
Where we can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
We can touch the stars
3.Hide Your Colors
Best word is the silence
Stood by like a brother
Carried on the back
Stood there with the others
Not one of them forgave me
Kept out in the desert
Locked up with the keys
I never knew how it could be
Look what you asked for, don't be shy
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide
Someone laid a hand
Best remembered answer
Where you come to stand
Looking out my window
Not one of them was calling
Swept up in the ashes
Behind summer leaves
I never knew how it should be
Look what you asked for, don't be shy
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide
Everyday rolling by you
Everyday rolling by you
Rolling by you
Rolling by you
Look what you asked for, don't be shy
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide your colors
You shouldn't hide your colors
4.Closer To Your Side
Please let me be the one
To see you in the day
To know you in the night
I'd run to your side
Better know that you're from
Another side of town, long way
You, my heart I can give it to
You, my soul
I can make it with you
It's all I can do, my soul
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
Please let me be the one
To see you in the day
To know you in the night
I'd run to your side
Better know that you're from
Another side of town, long way
You, my heart I can give it to
You, my soul
I can make it with you
It's all I can do, my soul
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
It's hard to make things better
Go ahead and try
Go ahead and try
Take some time along with me
Take some time along with me
Take some time along with me
You, my heart I can give it to
You, my soul
I can make it with you
It's all I can do, my soul
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
Closer to your side
I walk with you tonight
5.Tiny Arrows
Wandered through the desert
Looking for my way
Under rocks and houses
Snakes burn in the day
Coyote is howling
In the mountains far away
Dusty winters
Leave what's left behind
There are no reasons
To find what I call mine
Fences mean nothing
The sunrise disappears
Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky
And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away
Where did it go?
Where, where did it go?
The wind is whistling
Coats are buttoned high
Funny people
With nowhere left to hide
The canyon caravan
Rolls along
Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky
And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away
Where did it go?
Where, where did it go?
Didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart
Didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart
I didn't know those tiny arrows
Made of metal, pierced the heart
Sit and watch the river flow
Try and touch the sky
And I don't mind
The sound of the song bird trying
Follow what you can find
Childhood washed away
Where did it go?
Where, where did it go?
Where, where did it go?
6.She Walks In So Many Ways
She walks in so many ways
She wonders 'lone in the shade
She shakes herself in the dust
Whispers all things will be silence
She turns with sound in the sink
Cloud burst, our eyes never meet
Ideas starting to move
Slow as we drink from the sunshine
As you go, so I go
Where you stand, I will stand
Stronger than the wind
We live in houses of light
Our dreams stay with us at night
She listens all things are right
All things are just as they should be
The past in the silence
She moves among them
She lives among them
As you go, so I go
Where you stand, I will stand
Stronger than the wind
She walks in so many ways
She wonders 'lone in the shade
She shakes herself in the dust
Whispers all things will be silence
7.High Water Blues
On a nice spring day
I found a cage in the yard
It was just that way
I found a cage in the yard
I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement
With the booze on my mind
I was thinking back about all the times
I was stuck in the basement
With the booze on my mind
High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues
All the keys that I made
Never fit in the car
I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like the hammer hits a nail
I was bent upside down
I was reeling and I couldn't be found
Like the hammer hits a nail
I was bent upside down
High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Broken bottle's a disgrace
Weeds and old metal wire
I used an old black tire
All my pictures were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up
It was just my bad luck
All my pictures were locked up in a trunk
When the water came up
It was just my bad luck
High water, high water
High water blues
High water, high water
High water blues
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
Take it on the chin
8.Mockingbird Time
Yesterday is gone like the wind
Like the wind, it is gone
Yesterday is gone like the wind
Like the wind, it is gone
In the song birds that most never see
It taught me how to halt
I want to make something for you
That brings you joy
I want to make something for you
That brings you joy
There's so much color in the sky that's in your eyes
The moment that we see each other alone
There's so much color in the sky that's in your eyes
Moment that we see each other alone
Each day as we walk up the hill
Will the clouds hear our song?
Each day as we walk up the hill
Will the clouds hear our song?
Noise in our hearts
Is the one from the sky that lives on
I want to make something for you
That brings you joy
I want to make something for you
That brings you joy
There's so much color in the sky that's in your eyes
Moment that we see each other alone
There's so much color in the sky that's in your eyes
The moment that we see each other alone
Where you are that's where I live
I'm reaching out for words to give
I'm walking on by, telling you why
I've really gone back, mockingbird time
I've really gone back, you're all that I have
So much color in the sky that's in your eyes
Moments that we see each other alone
There's so much color in the sky that's in your eyes
Moment that we see each other alone
There's so much color
There's so much color
There's so much color
There's so much color in the sky
9.Stand Out In The Rain
Where you going all alone?
Where you going all alone?
Where you going all alone
Where you going?
What you gonna do when your time has come?
What you gonna do when your time has come?
What you gonna do when your time has come
And gone?
Imagine anything
On your own
You'll find different things
On your own
Take me down to the river tonight
And let me stand out in the rain
Take me down to the river tonight
And let me stand out in the rain
Stand out in the rain
Stand out in the rain
Where's the flash from lightning storms?
Where's the flash from lightning storms?
There's the flash from lightning storms
On the ground
There's a kind of freeze that goes deeper down
There's a kind of freeze that goes deeper down
There's a kind of freeze that goes deeper down
And down
What's the matter now
With your sight?
You may disappear
Into the night
Take me down to the river tonight
And let me stand out in the rain
Take me down to the river tonight
And let me stand out in the rain
Stand out in the rain
Stand out in the rain
Where you going all alone?
Where you going all alone?
Where you going all alone?
Where you going?
10.Cinnamon Love
11.Guilder Annie
Walking home so early
I hardly trust my eyes
Feel your presence with me
I feel your warmth inside
One day forwards, backwards
I fall into your arms
Find a landing, Guilder Annie
Down on easy street
Hope she'll get down on the pavement
And see things how I see them
See things how I see them
See things how I see them
How I see them
Last time I saw Annie
She had laughter she had smiles
All my green glass bottles
A wino's cosmic child
One day forwards, backwards
I fall into your arms
Find a landing, Guilder Annie
Down on easy street
Hope she'll get down on the pavement
And see things how I see them
See things how I see them
See things how I see them
How I see them
And the children mourn
(Bought you a cane from an old field
Brought you cane that I found for you)
No longer standing high above us
(Bought you a cane from an old field
Brought you cane that I found for you)
All day long they can
Walking home so early
I hardly trust my eyes
Feel your presence with me
I feel your warmth inside
One day forwards backwards
I fall into your arms
12.Black-Eyed Susan
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
Should I leave you where I found you
Or take you back to him
We first met at night that's why we were never friends
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
This is gonna be a dark road
We both believed in something, had it taken from them
You'll want to forget about this road
Till it reached inside your pockets
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
There's a top writer from a business college
That once paid for our home and spoon collection
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
This is gonna be a dark road
We both believed in something, had it taken from them
You'll want to forget about this road
Till it reached inside your pockets
It's 4 in the morning, I think that I should go home
No good stuck inside your door
Needs some other time
Needs some other time
Needs some other time
This is gonna be a dark road
This is gonna be a dark road
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
Remember your father, I spoke to him of our love
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan
This is gonna be a dark road
This is gonna be a dark road
13.Pouring Rain At Dawn
Baby, close the door
The only one you know
The footsteps you keep
Wondering on and on
Pouring rain at dawn
Set yourself at ease
You're always on my mind
Close the door
I'd close the door to that song
I chose my way to fall
I don't wanna be ungrateful
I don't wanna be unfaithful
I just wanna be the one you want
I can't turn back the hands of time
But if I could I'd make you mine
I was always so in love with you
Landed on my knees
The rose you gave to me
Healing comes to those
Who are the most in need
The ones you're looking for
Say before I go
This is all I know
The reasons why I can't rely on
All this time
It only go so slow
I don't wanna be ungrateful
I don't wanna be unfaithful
I just wanna be the one you want
Can't turn back the hands of time
But if I could I'd make you mine
I was always so in love with you
Never should be breaking your heart again
Never should be breaking your heart again
Baby, close the door
The only one you know
The footsteps you keep
Wondering on and on
Pouring rain at dawn
Pouring rain at dawn
Pouring rain at dawn
14.Hey Mr. Man
Hey, Mr. Man
Don't you call her name no more
Don't you call her name
Wait, try to understand
Offer up a word or two
Written in the sand
Sleeping in the morning light
In the morning light, in the morning light
Sleeping in the morning light
In the morning light, in the morning light
All these alibis
Thinking you can stay in wild
And watch the grass grow high
Will you ever, ever go home?
Why are you staying alone?
Will you ever, ever go?
Will you ever, ever go home?
Come back to the farm
Lay, lay down by the stream
With the blade of grass in hand
With the blade of grass
Stay, stay there with your bride
The one that you imagine comes
The one that never comes
Talking to an empty cup
Hand me down the cup
Hand me down the cup
Talking to an empty cup
Hand me down the cup
Hand me down the cup
Looking there for a sign
Leaving these blues
And whatever I dream behind
Will you ever, ever go home?
Why are you staying alone?
Will you ever, ever go?
Will you ever, ever go home?
Come back to the farm
Go back to the farm
Go back to the farm
Go back to the farm
Go back to the farm
