Each kiss makes me fry, will he see, the gaps between my lies, sometimes just a little move, more heavens place to be, even if I don’t feel love, terrible places hard care, they still let me dream, no one kids you there, kiss get dressed need a hug, what about my teeth, grace comes from above, act like I don't care, scrubbed sparkling clean, I sail through the air, Joey’s my new shove, he might rescue everything, rise each night in flood, it's only fair, when evening turns green, you take what you can, it’s not me who screams ?

You used to be fine, to drink alone, your laugh stronger than wine, no need for weak tea, humour lachrymose, jokes your repartee, now what you find, hearing the groans, what it is to be blind, the rain starts to cease, you carry the stones, of that certainty, speak when it’s right, never do the ‘phone , everything keeps for a while, you need to believe, what used to be so, when we all dreamed, you found the line, that you cross leaving home, the stuff bathed in time, is all that gone?

Who will break the news, struggling to escape, about the stuff you blew, no horizon's so bright, if your mark’s a stain, you' who are always right, don’t make life a curfew, be frightened of the waves, know just what to do, it nearly is the time, you hear a donkey bray, sit by the fire, before sunrise due, your tears seep away, no one can reach you, ever wondered why, you pine for the day, the long silent night, often bears some truth, that a fortune lies at bay, rain falls on the roof, it sounds ok.

Look up down the road, try to be kind, make a smile your own, the stars show the way, cold in the sky, you're back here to stay, no need for a comb, you'll walk the steady miles, don’t need any crown, find out the going rate, your face alive, you know how to behave, is there s window, where her face don't shine, here in your soul, never mind future days, burn out that fire, now you’re on your way, tell her all you know, it’s been a little while, in the cock’s crow, the song of a child.

Take the love you know, float it on the tide, dance with that alone, drained by winter's news, before she sails on by, see the ones you blew, caught up in a cyclone, she’s going to be your bride, say please don't go, what makes it true, a heart needs to fly, to beat these river blues, try to break the ropes, the wind sings out at night, nothing can atone, what you have to lose, that fellow by your side, is He part of you, you never did go slow, to catch the other's smile, d’yuh think she’ll show, wait around a while?

I wonder if she's right, to head for the sea, lilac as the night, she’ll dance and parade, make love before the enemy, her soul works this way, the shouting and fighting, slakes her release, time is her lightning, her eyes bear the day, cold in the season, when she joins the fray, it comes down the wire, before she flees, a heart from the fire, she carries sweet grace, spring's done with greeting, she needs to be away, bags weigh heavy at night, it's fun to believe, she'll never sit tight, will always want me ?

Will you come this way, to see the ruins, each time we separate, I dream of the day, you play those tunes, just to slake, the darkness at noon, and you remain, I won’t delay, on golden avenues, don’t have what it takes, here in the shade, falling for you. my thoughts dance like rain, are you made of clay, I howl at the moon, am not afraid, I know there's a flame, here in the gloom, what am I to say, you’ll see me soon, bring me a sweet cake?
