You found me
drifting. Big motion like a bird, strangest song i ever heard. Now, now that you're here stay with me light years, light years, light years. No paper, no ring in the trees where frogs sing. I brought lillies for you, think of all the things were gonna do. Now, now that you're here, stay with me ligt years. I give you a thousand hours, making love in the tall sunflowers. I give you a thousand feet, down were the water's deep. Sleepy storm, sleepy head, Limb for limb on my bed, Now, now that you're here, stay with me light years, light years, light years, light years, stay with me, stay with me, stay. |

On the Vermont Transit Bus I leaned my arm into a little chink of sun,
Going somewhere older than I was, Strapped into something tight, keeping me small. I dug into you like rock climbing; Too scared of coming down, Too scared of going up, Too scared of rockface. I should've split my sides or spilled my guts or hit you or something, But I was good, and your father's little pancakes So round and perfect and me sitting up too straight, Laughing in wrong places, kissing you, Kissing up, kissing too soon. When the cock crows When the morning comes where will I go? When the cock crows When the love is gone where will I go? And when you got me pregnant I stopped the party and I stopped the typewriter and I stopped your dumb ball game in the red barn and I Stopped your father and bled instead. And I felt the lie - something sticky on the inside, A bitter wind in my throat, Stopping me wanting, In my stomach, in my head and you said Sugar sugar, you couldn't come come Sugar sugar, without your mother Sugar sugar, you couldn't taste it Sugar sugar, in my throat. When the cock crows When the morning comes where will I go? When the cock crows When the love is gone where will I go? |

I put my hands
Where your wings should be I put my feet Where the earth should be And I can't see very far And when you said that you were dead I hung on Something I feel You are an angel, or maybe you could've been Something out here You are an angel, or maybe you could've been I've got this light Hangs over me I've got this fear Cuts into me And I can't see very far And when you said that you were dead I hung on Something I feel You are an angel, or maybe you could've been Something out here You are an angel, or maybe you could've been See how they run And nobody said you would go See how they fall And I can't see very far And when you said that you were dead I hung on Something I feel You are an angel, or maybe you could've been Something out here You are an angel, or maybe you could've been See how they run You are an angel See how they run All the same, all the same Something out here You are an angel |

Tonight my life is moving fast
I sit and watch the demons pass A world I know but never seen A fear that ripped the colour from me I lit a candle for the day Saw the light around your head Walked where angels never go Saw them shining from below It's easy when you're blessed With money, love and sex You're not like all the rest It's easy when you're blessed And did your mother lie to you? You got God and death confused I can't blame it on your soul There was nowhere else it could go It's easy when you're blessed With money, love and sex You're not like all the rest It's easy when you're blessed It's easy when you're blessed |

I got my daddy's eyes
But you gave me your double vision, I got my daddy's stride Now I'm walking blind with double vision. And I can almost see your face now, in me. And I can almost feel the weight you carried. You had to break the skin To put the blood between us, You did the dirty work To put the blood between us. And I can almost see your face now, in me. And I can almost feel the weight you carried. Oooh rocking the seed in me learning to speak the mothertongue. Sometimes between the lines I crashed, I could've killed you I tried to go too fast - I crashed, I could've killed you. And I can almost see your face now, in me And I can almost feel the weight you carried. Oooh rocking the seed in me learning to speak the mothertongue. |

I'm talking to strangers
To see what I feel, Your face is changing now And nothing seems real. These things I know Are like a baby how they grow in me; I pull them out Just like a baby for you to see them all. I'm talking to strangers To see what I need; This love between us now, How it's twisting in me. I want to get it out, I want to feel the breathing, I want to really love, I want to know the meaning, I want to share all these things. These things I know Are like a baby how they grow in me I pull them out Just like a baby for you to see them all These things I know Are like a baby how they grow in me I pull them out Just like a baby for you to see them all |

Oh I won't be your pretty baby,
I won't eat from your hand again. And the man in the white says it's alright, He says, come on girl give up the fight. You'll go to sleep, there will be no pain. Well I want to live with myself again. Well, where we lived there was a lighthouse, Throwing a white beam into our house, Over my body when I was sleeping, Over the secrets I was keeping, I could tell myself there would be no pain, But I have to live with myself again. I'm digging up, I'm digging up, I'm digging up, I'm digging up, I'm digging up, I'm digging up, I'm digging in the earth. I'm looking for signs And I'm shaking the dolls And the fairy-tales lied And somewhere, back there I didn't understand, Man and woman and woman and man. And I'm shaking the dolls I'm shaking the dolls. Oooh, the dream isn't coming through, I can't feel for you. Well somewhere, back there I didn't understand, Man and woman and woman and man, And I'm shaking the dolls I'm shaking the dolls. Oooh I have to live with myself again, Oohh I want to be with my body again, OoohYou can't make me hollow again. Oooh, the dream isn't coming through I can't feel for you. Love, shooting up, through my veins, I gotta get a hit again. |

Sometimes I'm an indian
Caught only by the sky, I can't go further - I'm going inside. See it's like a ride it turns you out in the night; You're far from the road now, But it's getting brighter. If you don't believe it then lose yourself and feel it; This is the bright frontier right now, right here; This is the bright frontier right now, right here. Taking hold of what we have, It's easy now; We're splitting it open to eat the seeds. Looking in at what we've found, it's easy now; this big horizon, It's you and me. If you don't believe it then lose yourself and feel it; This is the bright frontier where the love runs free; This is the bright frontier the sky is the limit for you and me. When you get to the top of something Do you get that feeling? do you get that high? When you get to the top of something do you get there, you want to jump off? Oh - we're going to keep on stretching out We're going to ride on ... |

I saw a mountain from higher above.
I held your hand and I was doubled up in love. Big sky above me, a river inside me And I'm doubled up in love. You're watching your step but you fall as you're walking. You take it in stride but still you fall as you're walking. Big sky above me, a river inside me And I'm doubled up in love. Feels good it feels like poetry Don't ask me to explain it just Feels good, like poetry, I'm doubled up again. Look at the sky, Lift off like an aeroplane, Watch the ground come up to meet you. Big sky above me, a river inside me And I'm doubled up in love. Feels good, it feels like poetry, Don't ask me to explain it just feels good, like poetry. I'm doubled up again. |
