Instead of killed time,
in your place at home,
please bring me turkish delight,
whisper a tune,
what's the use of growing cold,
anything will do,
thirty years of being kind,
while you're on the 'phone,
has gone on the tide,
salt rims the dunes,
crickets sing bull frogs croak,
you sit in the room,
if i asked for some wine,
to shame this dull moan,
don't ask for reasons why,
or if i wouldn't mind
fall on me like stones,
aboard the shipping lines,
just let's go.

Your way of life is honed,
the path you tread is tight,
soul ache's a global zone,
cool evening tunes,
without dreams of loving nights,
leave you marooned,
the summer has flown,
starlings whirl in final sight,
you shudder and see them go,
give yourself your due,
you open up fresh wine,
Rioja makes no one blue,
why not stay you moan,
no sea or given fire,
between you or leaving home,
friends don't call anymore,
wonder about tell tale signs,
you lie in the lemon grove,
why d'you praise this time ?

In here it's live or die,
the first one circles near,
you have no time to cry,
lonely as your bones,
you cannot allow the fear,
even if you are alone,
a knife the only birth right,
lemon tart are tears,
no matter where the fight,
what you easily know,
when the dance comes near,
are things you cannot show,
there is a pull of tides,
stars shine bright and clear,
before the whisper good night,
what gives death the right,
to pray for previous years,
make the walls this life,
a creep of futile tears ?

Rita
She doesn't want the cradle,
says doesn't care a hoot,
whispers for me to stay,
better this than bitter need,
if what she states is true,
not worried about being free,
somewhere down the highway,
sun light dances her tune,
then she calls for rain,
she draws her fire makes peace,
there's no night time gloom,
at what she wants to be,
her long twang and gait,
gives everything its due,
she knows the Atlantic trade,
sometimes we have to pray,
when she bends to kiss you,
manner easy in her own way,
her love is brand new.

Women who tell the truth,
are never frightened,
the song is part of you,
it decants the falling rain,
loves pink in August light,
it's that river again,
those who give always lose,
mysteries of their own time,
like water gathers on tissue,
this one turns your gaze,
with dreams of long delight,
you listen for the make,
a place flowers won't bloom,
she makes designs,
to mask her sad news,
do you remember that tune,
that grows like a vine,
never fake the blues,
forgive generous lies.

As a lover will you tame,
nights of ease and thrills,
songs you'd sing anyway,
the places where we cry,
come on love voices still,
let's sing a song let's try,
'cause of family's greater pain,
need to control your pills,
light candles for you again,
solace of another time,
strain against the hills,
dream of warmer climes,
take comfort from your gains,
ignore the cooling chill,
seek providence in the rain,
give money to every vagrant,
those you love you kill,
draw salt for being lazy,
think of making a will.

i am not loath,
to note the evening's sky,
cut the unending load,
when we cross do we say,
we are strangers to our lives,
a horizon for every day,
someone says i'm broken,
afraid of kids, family, my kind,
someone give me a loan,
it's not too late,
the sun rises just on time,
everything else can wait,
there's still a love for me to coax,
beyond the path a reason why,
all our lives lie open,
care is never unhoped for,
not drunk enough to try,
what's left is best unspoken,
God is on the tide.
