It's quiet here now, after years of his need, my face smooth as stone, I still see the grave, where praise be, his soul is saved, we arrived in the snow, to this new territory, God only knows, grant me the days, where I act carefree, not confined by intestates, men with barren tones, say have a drink on me, cry on my shoulder, they plead for a stay, at this house of reason, to laugh is no shame, in the blue dawn, bells ring excessively, I make my way home, beyond is the sea

Asha Three

You keep trouble at bay, any life requires, problems look away, when beseeched for a loan, scrutinise the tide, you're not alone, stumble on a great escape, dampen cool desire, it's easy to be brave, drenched to the bone, a bird on the wire, will you take him home, an offering to be saved, like a cold fish knife, seeks same lonely fate, a walk on blue stones, passed Saint Elmo’s light, is this where he moans, I love the rain, a burning pyre, the taste on your palate, a soul on fire.

Asha Two

I still hear me Da, laughing like a foghorn, it seems so far, happy he's not barred, or left forlorn, my ma besides me starts, when she stamps the tar, like a man o war, he lives in an ark, right from the off, between them torn, they have great hearts, it’s not in the charts, my son knows the score', he’s gone too far, soars like a lark, lipstick, a shirt that’s worn, in a shed by a barn, she'll kill that tart, love has no form, things fall apart, near the tidal wall

Asha

Laugh at hopes betrayed, gather holy things, take them to my grave, make me give a truth, to every little fling, notes arrive on cue, what a dance they make, woven silks they bring, when they hide their face, if only they knew, love is not a circus ring, but murders quite a few, smoke gathers in the rain, they ask me to sing, the tunes of Billy Holiday, ships turn on their screws, I really love the spray, it blows away the Blues, gamble all and say, life to me is everything, won’t miss a single day, salt crushed lightning.

Roberta Three

I'll have you know, what I really feel, almost in my bones, my jilted smile's a strain, squirming in the creel, they catch it anyway, take my time and blow, this night on a wheel, rivers always flow, why ask for rain, bathe in mountain streams, I can live again, there’s plenty to bestow, with other crazy schemes, I’ll make a picture show, no need to go away, live without appeal, face each coming day, don't have to borrow, say how I’ve been, tell them Oh so so, dance in my dreams.

Roberta Two

Forget all the clowns, that come to woo you, half of them in chains, as loud as your woes, ships blow hooters, every song sings of home, not just in their glance, but down each avenue, who can fault your tan, you reign without a throne, the bars are full of losers, you’d rather be alone, nothing comes by chance, your times are fewer, forget about the past, barefoot walk on stones, you would never refuse, a life that’s gone, strange this coming down, aboard a Yankee a schooner, no swish of ballroom gown, you’re one to love her. Y

Roberta

You'll pay a heavy score, my face is lemon blue, the rinds are raw, no sense of ease, get back to the queue, never once say please, you think me a whore, sitting here in bloom, a fool for your cause, bad blood when we meet, you always kill my news, a flutter or a dream, hacking out your chores, you turn my life askew, why wait in furious pause, can't you see, the flowers of the moon, never wave gently, maybe I’ll roar, you'll never be my glue, stick in my craw, call in the troops.
