"You Do Something To Me"

You do something to me
something deep inside
I'm hanging on the wire
for a love I'll never find
You do something wonderful
then chase it all away
Mixing my emotions
that throws me back again
Hanging on the wire,
I'm waiting for the change
I'm dancing through the fire,
just to catch a flame
an' feel real again

Hanging on the wire,
Said I'm waiting for the change
I'm dancing through the fire,
just to catch a flame
an' feel real again

You do something to me
somewhere deep inside
I'm hoping to get close to
a peace I cannot find -

Dancing through the fire yeah
just to catch a flame
Just to get close to,
just close enough -
To tell you that.....

You do something to me - something deep inside

"As You Lean Into The Light"

Gentle rain
Here it comes again
Rattling 'round your window, threatening pain
Coming on like a friend, but you know better than
Yesterday that held you by a different hand
Hail and stone
And all that's gone
When everything that passes, cuts to the bone
Turning like a wheel dragging a heavy stone
A weight that ties you down that you will never own

Strange to see, a paper smile on thee
When once you moved and light the room
For us all to be
Now if I could be the sun I'd shine in your life
If I could be the rain, I'd rain from your eyes
And I'd wash away the emptiness you feel inside

"Brand New Start"

I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I know it's never too late
To make a brand new start


I'm gonna kick down the door
I'm gonna get myself in
I'm gonna fix up the yard
And not fall back again


I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven on the ground
Not something distant or unfound
But something real to me
But something real to me


All that I can I can be
All that I am I can see
All that is mine is in my hands
So to myself I call


There's somewhere else I should be
There's someone else I can see
There's something more I can find
It's only up to me


I'm gonna clean up my earth
And build a heaven on the ground
Not something distant on a cloud
But something real to me
But something real to me


I'm gonna clear out my head
I'm gonna get myself straight
I know it's never too late
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start
To make a brand new start

"Broken Stones"

Like pebbles on a beach
Kicked around, displaced by feet
Like broken stones - all trying to get home.
Like a loser's reach
Too slow & short to hit the peaks
So lost & alone - trying to get home.

As another piece shatters
Another little bit gets lost
And what else really matters - at such a cost?

Like a loser's reach -
Too slow & short to hit the peaks
So lost & alone - trying to get home.

Trying to get home -
Like broken stones - All trying to get home.

"Driving Nowhere"

Driving nowhere - going no place
I'm just drifting - I've got low faith
I'm just waiting for a tide
To take me nowhere - along for a ride
Pleasure sifting - can you keep it
And as I'm drifting - it's hard to feel it
I feel I'm floating in a time
Driving nowhere - along for a ride

I've nowhere to be - only leave some miles behind
And within me I see, there's places I've yet to find

Driving nowhere - going no place
I get restless - I'm still curious
And I'm just waiting for a tide
To take me nowhere - along for a ride
I'm driving nowhere

"Friday Street"

Minds alive! On Friday Street
Summerflys around my feet
And wee still stars
Are in my eyes
And mine's alive on Friday Street
A pulse goes on, on Friday Street
Time seems longer against its beat
And it's easy to remember
And it's hard to forget
That mine's alive on Friday Street
Yeh! Mine's still alive on Friday Street

And I see myself
And it seems so clear
I can walk through the world
Like I'm not really here
And I really don't care
'Cause mine's still alive on Friday Street
Lives alive on Friday Street
You start to shine in a brand new heat

And the world is clear
Like you're not really here
And I see myself
And I'm really not scared
'Cause mine's still alive on Friday Street
Mine's still alive on Friday Street
It's like plugging back in on Friday Street
May it always come alive! on Friday Street

"Heavy Soul"

We're words upon a window
Written there in steam
In the heat of the moment
At the birth of a dream
Vapors passing really
So I'm touched by the thoughts
In the fleeting minutes after
The time that we've come
Come and go, you know, where the wind blows
An' though I couldn't define
I can only tell you that I
Got a heavy soul
Tuesdays dressed in shearling
Anchored on belief
In the sunlight on the water
Or rain upon a leaf
And I'm touched by its' beauty
And I hope to touch you too
'Cause I still seek the same things
That I once sought to be true
And you know, that where the wind blows
Tho' I wouldn't be lying, when I tell you that I
Got a heavy soul
It's a joy to know
I've got a heavy soul

We're words upon a window
Written there in steam
In the heat of the moment
Everything is what it seems
Vapors passing nearly
So I'm touched by the thought
That I can't be beaten and I can't be bought
And you'll know....................
That where the wind blows
I don't think I'd be lyin'
When I tell you that I
I've got a heavy soul

"I Should Have Been ThereTo Inspire You"

Nothing I'd say or I could do
Could move the mountains from your view
Nothing I see or I could show
There's only darkness now I know
I should have been there to inspire you
Not paint your world a cold, cold blue
I should have been there to inspire you
I could have told you truthful too
???- that I believed in you

I could have been there within your reach
This is not self pity of which I speak
I never took time to see how you'd grown
I never took the care it takes to know
Never took the time to see what you'd found
But always had the time to bring you down

More than all this I do not know
Only that love is here to show
Someone a world, to be themselves
A place to fall when all else fails
And friends harsh words cut deep and sore
But believe me mine will hurt me more
In those moments before I sleep
When I am truly alone to see

I should have been there to inspire you
Not paint your world a cold, cold blue
I should have been there to inspire you
I could have told you truthful too
???- that I believed in you

"Illumination"

I close my eyes - but sleep won't come
You're in my waking dreams
It's a feeling right inside of me
'til you're in my arms again

the prayer I ask - is where I'm going to
without your undying love
I'm as worthless as a cold, cold sun
that shines for no-one - at all

how many time - must I return
from distant oceans - just to learn
that with your song
illumination comes

I close my eyes
and I hear no-one
I'm in a moving film
it's balck and white
and beautiful
and it has no end to write...

"Mermaids"

She's in my head
She's in my mind
And I'm all she says
Yes she knows me well
As well as you can
She's on my side
I often hide
In her magic hair
And there I learn again - the joy of life
The wonder of it all
And this I feel - that through her I learn
Another way to be

You take my breath, I feel consumed
Take it all - I want to know
What lies behind - your smiles and shells
Wish I knew you well

Come in my head
Come in my mind
You can only love, when you open up
To be yourself

"Peacock Suit"

I've got a grapefruit matter
It's as sour as shit
I have no solutions
Better get used to it
I don't need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I don't need you to ruffle the feathers - on my Peacock Suit
I'm Narcissus in a puddle
In shop windows I gloat
Like a ball of fleece lining
In my camel skin coat

I don't need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I don't need you to ruffle the feathers - on my Peacock Suit
Did you think I should

Nemesis in a muddle
In a mirror I look
Like a streak of sheet lightnin'
In my rattlesnake shoes -

I don't need a ship to sail in stormy weather
I don't need you to ruffle the feathers - of my Peacock Suit
Did you think I should

"Wishing On A Star"

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
To follow where you'll be

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've, ever been
And I'm wishing on tomorrow, when will it come
And I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I never thought i'd see
a time when you would be
so far away from home
So far away from me

Just think of all the moments that we'd spent
I just can't let you go from me, you were meant
And I didn't mean to hurt you, but I know
That in the game of lovin' you, i was slow,

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, whether or never

I feel it's time for us to make up, baby
I feel it's time for us to get back together
And make the best of things, oh, baby
When we're together, yeah whether or never,

And I'm wishing on a star

And I'm wishing on all the rainbows that I see
wishing on all the people who've ever been
wishing on tommorrow, when will it come
I'm wishing on all the lovin' we've ever done

But I'm wishing on a star
To follow where you are
I'm wishing on a dream
to follow where you been
said I'm wishing on a star
