If this is the beginning where does it end If I have written this letter, when will it send Life is but a guessing game with us on our way We move, eb, flow, sway.

Verse 1 Demolition sparks fly Divergent melodies and lies This crystal ball is all I see Or magic 8 ball mystery Raptured souls singing In the snow baltering Flakes and icey fingers move To penumbra beat and groove Chorus Move sway Verse 2 Leather bound books burn Wind lofts ash from the urn Rain hits tin roof all night Hawks and crows fly out of sight The young and old dance in step Poor feelings have lost their grip Songs rise up through cold air Give up get down and find a pair Chorus Move Sway Bridge Come with me we’ll fly away Where star meets space Or Earth meets grace We’ll find it all some day Move sway Let your body take control If you don’t know which way to go

New Life 05:01
Verse 1 New Life has sprung up today But I don’t know how long will stay Green stems peak from dewy ground Water slides but makes no sound Sunlight gleams through the canopy Dancing, twisting off glowing leaves The smell of pines and blooming trees Fill the minds of all who see New life flutters by Seeking shelter where it finds Twigs and branches broken now Once were peering through the ground Chorus Hold it long and don’t lose your grasp Finding time to sew the grass Seeds and stems will soon be grown Grab the plow and move the bones Verse 2 Fickle time killing all below Shining Sun brings life from woe The clock's hands bring dire straits Sands are mounding adding weight Branches push through ages past Breaking shattering molded glass Rain pours washing dirt away Puddles build a home to stay Rusted steel under creeping roots Old life hidden beneath my boots Walking, soaked from the rain above Finding nothing undreamed of Chorus Hold it long and don’t lose your grasp Finding time to sew the grass Seeds and stems will soon be grown Grab the plow and move the bones Second Chorus Boney hands digging in the dirt Pulling weeds and sticks from earth Seeds and stems will soon be grown Grab the plow and move the bones

Groove 03:21
Verse 1 Starts with a tap of your toes Moves up the seam of your jeans A scene from a techno color screen Dolby digital sounding in my ear waves Chorus Feel it stop, we interlock Sudden hip, you move and dip History beats, our soul repeats You’ve got to find that You’ve got to find that groove Verse 2 The tick tock clock near the sofa My head bobs left to right The dance starts in an hour You’re ready by quarter past eight. Chorus Feel it stop, we interlock Sudden hip, you move and dip History beats, our soul repeats You’ve got to find that You’ve got to find that groove Verse 3 Heat wave got my heart thumpin Mississippi mud on the back of my seat I’ve moved all around the country With something building up inside me Chorus Feel it stop, we interlock Sudden hip, you move and dip History beats, our soul repeats You’ve got to find that You’ve got to find that groove

Verse 1 Take me down south where the magnolia trees grow tall Take me down south where the rivers get a little murky Take me down south where I found my first love Take me down south where I found the need to pray Chorus Take me to the fountain and cleanse my soul When I feel so all alone My sweet lord won’t you meet me here When I feel so all alone Verse 2 Take me up north where the winter’s cold but the fire’s warmer Take me up north where the white mountains reach the sky Take me up north where I learned to sing my song Take me up north where we danced under the maple trees Chorus Take me to the fountain and cleanse my soul When I feel so all alone My sweet lord won’t you meet me here When I feel so all alone Verse 3 Take me out west where the desert creeps into my dreams Take me out west where red earth is not as it seems Take me out west where I learned to be a better son Take me out west and leave me in the dust Chorus Take me to the fountain and cleanse my soul When I feel so all alone My sweet lord won’t you meet me here When I feel so all alone Verse 4 Take me out east where the the earth speaks to me Take me out east where the stories seep from the ground Take me out east where I found the life in my blood Take me out east where my parents left the flood Chorus Take me to the fountain and cleanse my soul When I feel so all alone My sweet lord won’t you meet me here When I feel so all alone

Shoe Blues 02:57
I'm gonna go to the store and get a new pair shoes Dance all night till I get those dancing blues Dance all night till my face hits your floor Leave my worried blues at your door Take my shoes and dance around your town Leave my lonesome blues on the ground Have you ever had a woman on your mind Wake up laughing, laughing just to keep from cryin'

Delilah 04:53
Verse 1 You’re shaking deep down in my chest Dancing in my veins you ain’t like the rest Bend these iron glad rocky gates Pillars are falling, girl don’t hesitate Riddles whispered from the sink You want me now, you’re on the brink Put the dagger down and find my hand Will talk this out and make a plan Chorus Delilah you’re my poison queen Delilah you’re my serpentine Delilah pull back my hair Delilah let me loose from this chair Verse 2 Make a fool of me, all of over town These knots you tie can’t hold me down I’m close to the flame, I can’t go nowhere Day after day it’s my cross to bear You take my strength with your eyes Digging in my soul with your lies I can’t resist no I can’t seem to leave You draw me in and I now I believe Chorus Delilah you’re my poison queen Delilah you’re my serpentine Delilah pull back my hair Delilah let me loose from this chair Bridge I'm leaving you your leaving me We fought this whole damn night through Your slipping away slipping away But I want you Chorus Delilah you’re my poison queen Delilah you’re my serpentine Delilah pull back my hair Delilah let me loose from this chair

Verse 1 I fell in love with your curves Your honeysuckle vines and turns Along your blueridge back Your ground sank and cracked We swayed in the hemlock trees Like two cardinal birds we sang I hollered in your hollow trunk In the sleepy hollow we went up Chorus Appalachian Appalachian What the hell’s your pronunciation All I know is I’ll stick around Around your hallowed ground Verse 2 We laughed the rain away On a porch swing we spent the day You gave me a song to sing Love welled up like spring We ran through muddy fields Slid down the gully until You grabbed my hand just in time In the sleepy hollow we went up Chorus Appalachian Appalachian What the hell’s your pronunciation All I know is I’ll stick around Around your hallowed ground Verse 3 We built a fire below An aspen covered in snow Warm dry shivering knees Your skin began to heat You said it was time to go Shedding your leaves to flow Down the river bending back In the sleepy hollow we went up Chorus Appalachian Appalachian What the hell’s your pronunciation All I know is I’ll stick around Around your hallowed ground

You said them's fighting words Well I ain't fought in years. You said you're gonna wipe that smile right off my face I ain't smiled since you went away. You said you're gonna clean my clock I don't even know what time it is.

Verse 1 I’m all grassy field in your hazel eyes I’m all park bench in your Neptune smile Finding the seed that the magician made To bring out the vines that gripped my day Holding a picture in my lungs Out in out repeat till dawn Memories tug at my shoe lace heart I’ll double knot this moment this string I strung Chorus Sea foam green, tender glimpse and cast away Sea foam green, peaceful night amongst the fray Sea foam green, glance the slant of light with me Sea foam green, I’ll seek horizon and release Verse 2 Old fairy fort made of sticks and leaves Tightly grip the sun piercing breeze Send off your ship into my gaze Lock this chest up and sail our seas Wings make their way down my chest Stop on their way to cocoon the rest Bodies float in salt filled lagoons Soaking up their fears with songs I sung Chorus Sea foam green, tender glimpse and cast away Sea foam green, peaceful night amongst the fray Sea foam green, glance the slant of light with me Sea foam green, I’ll seek horizon and release

Verse 1 My memory fades like invisible ink I search inside the caves, the caves of me I trace the lines, the walls, the shapes, I can’t seem to put a name to the face My words always repeat and defeat They echo off the walls but never return I wish that I could know your name, see the light from your flame Chorus Run to the light of day, escape memory’s cold decay Stare into my eyes, and I’ll remember through this haze Follow the letters that I wrote and you’ll find me Verse 2 My phrases always chip like paint Swept under rug and table leg Strokes of reds, blues and pinks, find their way through the pain Warm soft lights drift through my dreams Friends find their way and meet me there Voices bounce off sticks and stones and rattle my bones Chorus Run to the light of day, escape memory’s cold decay Stare into my eyes, and I’ll remember through this haze Follow the letters that I wrote and you’ll find me Bridge I lost my train of thought I can’t get back Chorus Run to the light of day, escape memory’s cold decay Stare into my eyes, and I’ll remember through this haze Follow the letters that I wrote and you’ll find me
