Stay On 03:33
Stay on one more night ‘Til you leave your desert home, Leave your desert tide Stay on one more night With the river at your feet, Breeze by your side Let your echo be your guide Cast your voice and pull it back From the ripple of a stream To the needle in your seam But until you slide your feet across that tile One deep breath won’t kill you now So sleep once more Kiss the ground before you soar Stay on one more night ‘Til you leave your desert home, Leave your desert tide Stay on one more night With the river at your feet, Breeze by your side Building dreams with simple strides Sing a song that has no end with a whisper from the fold Sing a six for a syncopated soul But until you glide over plains with gentle style Fill your plate and clear your mind Take a memory for the road Say a prayer for the people that you know Stay on one more night ‘Til you leave your desert home, Leave your desert tide Stay on one more night With the river at your feet, Breeze by your side Stay on

When you pull back the curtain And the light steps through It’s been bright for hours Look at that sunny morning Let’s go out and ride a canoe And it’s not what you’d hoped for But if it’s fine by you We’ll draw another picture You can keep your castle, too If we’d have been half as lucky We’d have had half as much to go through ‘Cause after all this crying We know just what we ought to do And you should have dreams to die for But you’ve got worries instead So I’ll see about tomorrow Just rest your head Just rest your head And if a year goes by And you’re still dancing in the leaves We’ll put on another record Spin around our garden And we’ll fall down whenever we please ‘Cause you should have dreams to die for And you should have dreams to die for But you’ve got worries instead So I’ll see about tomorrow Just rest your head Just rest your head And it’s not what you’d hoped for But if it’s fine by you We’ll draw another picture You can keep your castle, too

Parlour Noir 02:35
lyrics by Erika Nakagawa Quand Je m'assieds pres de toi, Tu n'ose pas Me tenir la main Mais c'est pas grave On se rire Mais quand Tu ne peut plus resister Tu me dit que Tu m'aimerais toujours Et moi Aussi Toujours

Church Bells 05:18
Every church bell sounds the same on my knees I trade a lifetime of sorrow and pain for each whispered please And when I can’t feel your touch in my dreams I slide down deeper to the bottom of a dirty ravine And I’m sorry So sorry But it’s never gonna happen again ‘Cause I’m over So over the things that made me hurt you then I was running hard for your shadow on the wall As my feet hit the ground I could almost hear you call When she came in for warmth I promised I wouldn’t fall But she lit a candle, turned off the lights And I couldn’t see you at all ‘Cause every church bell sounds the same on my knees I trade a lifetime of sorrow and pain for each whispered please And I’m sorry So sorry But it’s never gonna happen again ‘Cause I’m over So over the things that made me hurt you then But you still need to know How could I let you go for a moment? Well I swallowed hard I stood my ground for a while In the face of an angel that whispered to me with a smile And you, You should have been there in her eyes But when all you see is beauty, it’s so hard to hear the lies It’s never gonna happen again I swear to you stronger than before Hear me louder than before the storm As you sift through the driftwood and pieces of glass, Pick up the pebbles, and kick up the ash, You might fight the plaque that hung on the door Of the castle that fell ‘fore you came to my shore that said, “I built this shrine and I’ll tear it down” And you’re damned if you enter Damned if you’ve found the love of a man who is eager to drown In the arms of the next golden girl to come around The hum of the next velvet voice in his ear Not his choice, but his fear A smile for a tear Eclipsing the words of a woman who’s not there Aware of temptation he knows he can’t bear I need you to stop me, to shake me, to shield me, To prop me up and take me to where you can heal me I need your forgiveness Absolve me, please So I won’t hear the chimes that keep making me cheat ‘Cause every church bell sounds the same on my knees I trade a lifetime of sorrow and pain for each whispered please I’m sorry Please forgive me
