The businessman will take his cut of all the good things we have wrought tangled in our weary lives and I'll smile on my way down Someone that I loved before but don't remember anymore I wonder if she's still around or if she cut another corner on her way out Free air Good and growing Would you welcome the world without us? It's coming again They came for money in the night Who am I to stand and fight Maybe you will understand when you're clinging to nothing Can't stand a minute on my own Can't stand time unless I'm stoned I used to be someone to trust but now I laugh about lying and I miss your Free air Good and growing Would you welcome the world without us? It's coming again

We set out in the naked dawn to have something to talk about in a few years over dinner Coming down the hill just feeling like a hundred miles an hour Harmonica piercing through the friendship And in a way with crippling fear we left the drugs and bought some beer and cooled down Well who are you to judge me so, there's things about me you don't know But you're right, I'll slow down I never saw you break before, laid out all that brings you down and we sat there trying to console you I've known her longer than you have but you loved her hard and then it crashed but someday she'll surely turn around And when she does you'll rest again and know yourself and to be a man who's happy I lit a candle, paid the fee and asked the sky to humour me and give you a chance to get even We made fast friends and opened up, said hi to every single soul and always, the favour was returned We drove away as a song came on, and I knew that I'd fallen deep in love, aching in my stomach We left the land where his mother stays and thought about the simple days before There's no way we could forget with the rock that lays there by her bed It looks like it has always been there The night was long but the drive felt quick and as we went on I got sick of sadness So bring the winter bring the snow, it doesn't matter, we all know that next year, the sun will reappear

The soul of a woman, parade in the light I watch from the hallway and I tell her good night Won't you settle and calm down and I'll be good to you Ten thousand people sit by the bay I show them my feelings and they look the other way They don't care, but I do and I'll be good to you I remember you naked that night by the lake You had been sleeping and I kissed you awake In a wooden playhouse You were good to me

Dean had both his hands tied up in business So Johnny took control of the wheel Barry in the back barking "we're finished" Let's get out of town and blow the deal His woman still at home pacing circles 'round the phone Waiting for some good news, feeling bad The evening sun was gold on the horizon and maggie must've missed the detour sign We ended up on the wrong side of the highway and suddenly her smiling eyes met mine Her boyfriend's drinking tea with his mother at the beach wondering why he suddenly feels sad I heard that someone died out on the highway They're saying it was clearly Hit and Run The car they drove was just reported stolen One moment you're alive the next you're gone I wonder how it'd be if it was not her but me I get these crazy pictures in my head It's all right, I'll just use a little imagination And you'll be at my window tonight Just give yourself a break and take me for a little vacation time And you'll know just the way to make it right The devil has no home, it is always on the road there's bound to be a moment when you meet

Trumpets 02:40
Grasping at a cloud is all I've ever really done Sorting through my memories I think this is the one where everything just fell apart birthed a creature in my heart I think this is the one Waiting for the wave to come and sitting in the sand You start to see the colours and you start to hear The Band Is this the thing they sing about? When they bring their trumpets out and you start to hear The Band We've passed so many hills before and now we'll never speak again No we'll never speak again No we'll never speak again Take me only if you need, take me only if you want Show me everything I need to see here in my time If you want to help me out, take me to the water or take me to the sun Or take me to the sun

Bald Eagle 05:35
I skipped along the rising water was cradled in the river, and settled in the sun I thought of how my life was changing how troubles were fading, and the woman I loved And the weather was the kind that I remembered from my first day in Seattle, on the 4th of July when I saw the bald eagle fly I saw the sadness in the lion's eyes as he watched his little brother die under a claw I thought of making different choices of answering all their questions and finally being free And I felt like I fell into a painting, one I saw in Amsterdam, on the day I first knew that it had always been you And now, in final desperation I let go of the darkness and I move towards the light Just think of what you'll leave behind now and what there is to gain and how it's all decided The people I met throughout my lifetime They're walking in a line now and show me a smile I'll be home in just a little while

Sacrifice 04:01
Everything was new once But everything grew old I'm stuck in an abandoned town Scraping for gold Well everything had eyes once But eventually grew blind It all looks so much smaller now when I turn to look behind I came here to take pictures but I ended up with lines It doesn't make much difference though, they're both ways to capture time and If it means a single night without stumbling into a distant sleep I will make the sacrifice I remember feeling good once But then everything turned bad Now I'm steady on my way going back to what I had And if it's true, if you can only really love once I will lay it in your hands Somehow become a part of all that you have planned I came to find the shrine here Well it's a temple now instead It doesn't make much difference though They're both tributes to the dead and If it means a single thought that's not crawling out of the darkest place I will make the sacrifice And if you my dear across the sea could somehow take notice of me I would make the sacrifice
9.
I had a traveling dream of a ship bound for the east Around the cape of good hope, made sure the gods were pleased The sea can be a maiden fair but only if you're true 'Caus if you're not she'll come right up and make a fool of you I found a deck of cards and I laid them out to see Wether we'd be reaching the place I tried to be The hangman and the devil were laying side by side So I looked out on the rolling blue and told her 'No, not tonight' Oh killer whales of Eden come and take me where I can be a whaler We pulled our boats ashore and we looked out on the land We were greeted by the people and we laid down in the sand Taken to a country house where we sat and drank We talked about Australia and the gods we had to thank And in the night they came, warned us with their tails Splashing in the water, Eden's killer whales They showed us where our fortunes lay and sang about the seas And in my dreams I saw the sun and it put my heart at ease Oh killer whales of Eden come and take me where I can be a whaler

Over You 04:15
A sizable part of my soul I put it down in the hole and now I'm over you Over you Walking a thinning line Worrying all of the time but I'm over you Over you With my head underwater I'm lighting up the sky for you 'Caus I'm over you You tried to stay quiet but I had to go out and try it now I'm over you Over you Saw a light in your face that stays with me to this day But now I'm over you Over you Come on over to the beach and we'll go another time or two though I'm over you And when we meet again I don't know where and don't know when You will see that I'm over you You can take me by the hand and you can promise me something you can't even understand But I'm over you With my head underwater I'm lighting up the sky for you 'Caus I'm over you
11.
County Fair 03:35
I wanna take you to the county fair There's lotsa happy pretty people there I wanna take you to the county fair where we can be together and fall in love again I wanna take you on the ferris wheel I wanna ask about the way you feel I wanna take you on the ferris wheel with the sun going down and the wheel keeps turning 'round I wanna try to be your friend tonight I wanna tell you it will be all right I wanna try to be your friend tonight And just to walk you home will be enough to satisfy me I wanna take you to the county fair There's lotsa happy pretty people there I wanna take you to the county fair where we will be together and fall in love again
12.
One day I'll melt into the dawn One day I'll fade out like a song A song you'll never hear again So you'll keep listening till the end Away you go into a world that's yours and still you know, it's only for a while And the love you hold is all that I can feel So I close my eyes and wonder if it's real Move away from everything you know Now the lights go out and there's nowhere to go
