Sleepy Hollow

Where you been my love?
I've been lost and down
Don't give me up, my love
You can turn me on
Sing your siren song
Don't give me up, my love
Be my morning, be my night
Be my sorrow, my delight
Take my worry, take my woe
Fill my sleepy hollow

Joy Song

if i'm lost and lonely
would you kindly be my friend?
help me find my way again
if i'm weak and weary
with a burden on my chest
will you lead me to my rest?
oh lord, oh lord
and give me joy to be my song
if i'm cold and frozen
would you kindly take me in?
warm me at your fire again
if i'm old and lonely
and my love is dead and gone
would you help me carry on?

Storm
04:19
|

|
you rain a river each time you fall
and i burn a desert each time i call
you cut a canyon deep in my heart
you sing in lightning and peel back the dark
we push through a mountain
and pull through the flood
the storm is in our blood
you spin a lyric, spin it in my head
you sing in silver, but i dream in red
you keep us moving, running through the day
but i shake a landslide and block our way
and we all gotta pull through the flood

Devil's Note
04:07
|
|||
|
the mountain's on fire tonight
and the wind is rising high
and the rain ain't gonna come and put it out
so i won't go home now
and the blood moon is in the sky
and its whisper is in my mind
and in my throat hangs a devil's note
so i won't go home now
and i hear my father call,
'son just give the word, i'll carry you out'
but the smoke is in my eyes
and the fire is at my toes
and in my throat hangs a devil's note
so i won't go home now

Winter Song
06:16
|
|||
|
winter light, cold and bright so long
summer's memory gone
the sun falls, and shadows grow so long
a new moon will come
the trees are still
with branches chilled
they hunger still for warmth
and sunlight at dawn
birds know of spring behind the snow
and sing for that tomorrow of green and gold
(birds know
that this snow
will melt into spring
sing for tomorrow
oh hide us in your wings)

Nothing Wrong With You
04:33
|
|||
|
some things drag upon your heart
and burden your soul
frustrate your attempts at control
try, try to let your worries go
ease them down to the floor
let your blues just float away
there's nothing to say
but it's better off that way
there's nothing to do
but there's nothing wrong with you
some days your head is up in the clouds
and you're walking upside down
with a lazy song in your mouth
sometimes you have the right idea
your head's remarkably clear
and your blues just float away

Hold Your Head Up
04:32
|
|||
|
too many days on my back
and too many nights like that
i try to react to life all around me
whiskey and gin come to my aid again
truthfully, i didn't listen when somebody told me
hold your head up
when you are aching for love
hold your head up
you're gonna find it for sure/i know
told a girl that i loved her
she gave no answer
i tried hard to romance her
but i was no dancer
oh, mercy me why'd i set my heart free?
truthfully i didn't bother when somebody offered
