the waiter

in a cabin out where it's cold
there's a waiter serving time
he remembers she said
"I'll be there yes I'll be there
someday when the snow thaws"
so he stands watching the snow fall
in his hand a clock on a platter
he remembers she said
"I'll be there yes I'll be there
every night your eyes dream"
"dream dream my lonely one"

the old kind of summer

every day goes by and every night the same,
I sit and think of how I'm so much
further away from you.
every time I wake, I'll slowly mark the day,
cause this life has taken me so much
further away from you.
every sunset and every time it rains,
every walk I take I'll count the steps
further away from you.
if I should fall in love again, I will know that
I'm only that much further from you.
you'll fall in love again someday, I know.
you'll see the light and I'll be away.

release my heart

what you gave to me I'll never forget
I was born for you before this crime began
all I ask of you is to take the knife and ....
release my heart before you move ahead
what if I was to say to you
"you will never see me again"
I was born of you my partner in crime
and what you stole from me
I may never get it back so ....
release my heart before you move ahead

even thieves couldn't lie

it was mid October when they would meet at the lake
down on barrelhill road beneath the moon
there were no fish in the sky just catching sparks
from all these falling stars
his heart would never slip off this track
cause this girl wasn't afraid of his tears
so on one of those nights they got into the car
she pointed at the map and said
"any place looks good to me, just run with me"
she said "any place looks good to me,
as long as you run with me away from here"
she said "we don't need money when we've got us,
because power it'll make any man weak I know"
even thieves couldn't lie not when you look into her eyes
all your plans will fall apart
the storm held back beyond the mountains
as the birds built the nest to lay her head
then she flew away from here
the wind blows and her voice hides behind the trees
as I walk to visit her grave
so I climb into bed then close my eyes
and I can still hear her say
"any place looks good to me, just run with me"
she said "any place" even in my dreams
as long as you run with me away from here
she would say "we don't need the money when we've got us"
"because power it'll make any man weak, I know"
but it's her power that made this man so very weak
she said "run with me away from here"

bluewater/blackheart

I fell like a dove into the desert
barely breathing my tears built (filled) an ocean
I was out on a levee - I was out on the jetty
when I lost my self into the water
they came at night and said to me
to rest is forbidden
you must move or drown away
I'll be alive - I'll squeeze through the light

heart without a home (the great flood)

fear lights the way - you came and went
you held it close to your heart
don't take the wires from my back,
I can't move on my own
once held so close, now my heart has no home
so long - it's been so long
will I find my way back home again
I crawled out from the sea, cold and alone
there were sounds all through the night, as I ran
and now silence fills the air
as the years flood my mind
once held so close, now my heart has no home

stitched to my heart

my heart is bleeding rain drops, they're lonely rain drops
when it used to shower all night long
and in the well they'll find my heart, that I gave to you
and in the end they'll find her name, stitched to my heart
I've been locked away ---- I'll keep it locked away
where they'll find no trace
they're lonely rain drops

square heart

I've got a square old heart
and no one makes the parts that I need
to repair and pull me from this well
but I'll be waiting

in a tin flask

I can't remember when she went away
but I'll keep a light on beside my bed
the pillow soft and the blanket warm
I have walked the old winding road
has anybody seen a love alone as mine
searched her grave and across the plains
beneath the sea but I still can't find her
has anybody seen my queen of grace
I can't remember when she left
without her to hold what use are my arms
can somebody point the way
I have walked that old winding road
has anybody seen a love alone like mine
searched her grave and across the plains
beneath the sea but I still can't find her
I can't remember why she left
I just know she's far away
and I won't find her in the corner
in a tin flask from my coat

a heart the size of a horse

lights down everything's closed
I sit outside in the rain that pins me here
you were in the trinity of my beating heart
I should have known when my heart fell from the horse
to something less than me
you were in the trinity of my beating heart
from all the rain the vines have grown over
and trap me here inside my home
there's a fence that's tired and old
escape the grove
you were the trinity of my beating heart
I should have known when my heart fell from the horse
to something less than me
you were in the trinity of my beating heart

the waiter no. 2

In the time of this winter the waiter had not much to say
he could hear the clock but he could not find his way
if I'm so far from your heart why do I feel it beat
and time won't wait for us


blue tears

now I know that I must leave
and I can't remember when I ever felt so great
it was my time spent with you before the war
but now these blue tears they keep falling
falling down from my lonely eyes
they're falling for you
I can see the ship's reflection in your eyes
from behind me telling that I have no other way
and it was hard to turn and leave
now these blue tears they keep falling
falling down from my lonely eyes
they're falling for you


a light so dim

there are no trains that leave from the maze
my only chance was a ship to escape
if you are the light house in the storm
I'll be the ship with a thousand dead souls
how long will they believe in a light so dim
down in the gallows the darkness glows
it was hard to see in the hearts of them
if you see a light call down below
I'll be moving and sorting out our fears
how long will we believe in a light so dim
cause time is all we have so make the time
throw down the line I'll see to climb
if it's held close it may just work
if you are the light house in the storm
I'll be the ship filled with a thousand dead souls
and time is all we have so take the time
to make the time and make time to take the time


your church is red

when I fell inside out of the snow and by your fire
in this time I've learned
change your hate cause that's your slave
turn your head from your evil ways
your church is red blood flows black from your heart
we build our temple one brick at a time
and the straw I steal to build your nest
I've learned
change your hate cause that's your slave
turn your head from the evil ways
your church is red blood flows black
and when the bells ring they'll all come to see
when the bells ring out tonight
for my wounded heart
you can paint it over cause below I know
and when the bells ring they'll all come to see
there's a fire in the fields a killer in the mirror
when the bells ring out tonight
for my change of heart


when we reach the hill

something scared you and when you moved
your stitches pulled not yet removed
we formed this link a thousand years before
then you turn and say
if you leave how can you leave on this hook
cause we'll grow old here, you can never leave
and what keeps me here has grown into me
and I can't tear free a style awaits to coin us I peg you
yes I seal the mold then you turn and say
if you leave how can you leave on this hook
cause we'll grow old here, you will never leave
when we reach the hill when we reach the hill


outside the glass

I never knew what you were trying to say
you spoke to me from outside the glass
I could never understand your words
I never knew what you were trying to say
I saw you place your hand over your heart
and I can hear the waves just outside your gate
I'm going away
and this space I leave for you
for the rest of my life
I'm going away - I can hear the waves
you spoke to me from outside the glass
I never knew what you were trying to say
I'm going away


gently off the edge

there was a murder and a heart on some other road
it was colored drinks but most of all this empty seat next to me
and I felt life was getting older and something had to unfold
and if there's a chance that I could be with you
as a distant ring something in your mind
and you would think of me when you are away
there was a ring in a film dated 1863
but dead men can't tell the truth of lies is what filled up his days
and we feel life getting older as something has to unfold
if there's a chance that I could be with you
as a distant ring something in your mind
and you would think of me when you are away
listen to my call please come home
come home come home cause I feel so alone
you listen you listen but nobody's there
you wait for a sign will they appear
you know they'll say that I am the one


it's a crime I never told you about the diamonds in your eyes

down by the old fire ring
you wouldn't hear a sound from my lips
and maybe some day I will see
that it was a crime I never told you
about the diamonds in your eyes
and maybe someday we will be
away with the wind we'll go
in the sea we'll float
and away with the wind we'll go
a million miles away
away with the wind we'll blow
in the sea we'll float
down along the way
and maybe someday I will see
I'll say please don't tear your heart from me
cause it was a crime I never told you
about the diamonds in your eyes


my heart might stop

please don't be too long for my heart might just stop someday
you were looking but I couldn't find cause I didn't know
they had come for you on ships of gold to take you away
please don't be too long for my heart might just stop someday
outside the sky lit up and I didn't know what I would say
when they came for you on ships of gold to take you away
I just watched you leave I never spoke a word


beneath the ground

did you feel something beating beneath the ground


the waiter no. 3

in the time of the winter the waiter fell into the snow
he could hear a voice but will he ever find his way
if I'm so far from your heart why do I feel it beat
and time won't wait for us
