Make Believe
02:26
|
|||
Make believe you love me madly
Make believe you’d take me gladly
A sky of starlight
That once was our light
Make belief a competition
Hold to every superstition
And when we make believe then I’ll believe in you
The recollections soar above you
Through the twilight’s dim lit door
If you knew how much I love you
Maybe I’d stop dreaming of you
Make the most of temporary
Give what pleasure you can carry
And when we make believe then I’ll believe in you

Lovely Dream
03:39
|
|||
Though I love the moon and its companion
They’re only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream
Though I love the changing of the seasons
They’re only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream
The moon and the changing of seasons
Shadows of streets and parked cars
Visitor, tall hat in the driveway
Looking and holding the arm
When I put my ear up to the door
I heard him saying:
“It’s only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream”
It’s only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream

Hands wrapped around each others' hands
Eyes locked onto each others' eyes
I'm broken hearted
Now that we're through
Every time I hear this song I think of you
Lives entangled like a web
Lies you said you'd never tell
One pair of slippers
Where there were two
Every time I hear this song I think of you
Drifting from the old chalet
Or blaring at the bar
When I forget the melody
The radio refreshes me
Still I'm dreaming of that night
Why do I constantly obsess?
I'm through with daydreams
They won't come true
Every time I hear this song I think of you

Sleep
03:37
|

Sleep
Fill up my eyes with sleep
Into my heart
Mmm
When you’re alone
Satisfied and at ease
Sleep
River of rest and sleep
Promise to stay
Permissions you keep
I’m throwing away
And ending each day with sleep

From The Start
03:26
|
|||
Winter melts away into
The promises of Springtime’s bloom
Unless we put a stop to all
The warnings that the seed forgot to heed
Lately you’ve been worrying
About the things that never seemed to trouble you
I know, it’s troubling me too
Why do bluebirds sit
Orderly in pairs
Knowing later they must fly away?
Why do pots and pans
Hanging side by side
End up in such peculiar places
Seen by unfamiliar faces?
Why instead of ours
Someone made it mine
Why is it so hard to mend a broken heart
When it wasn’t that way from the start
Why is every house
Burdened by its roof?
How can mortar never love its brick?
Why a small hello?
Why a long goodbye?
If meeting is much more divine,
Farewell should take up half the time,
Why is “who am I”
When there’s only you?
How can every good plan fall apart?
When it wasn’t that way from the start

Who Cares?
02:52
|
|||
The moon is low, and I'm alone
No ringing phone or socialite affairs
Who cares?
A dream of you on evening breeze
The memories descending from the stairs
Who cares?
The secondhand, the hourglass
They taunt me as they go
Why am I still second guessing?
Loneliness is evening's blessing
Though every night I pray in vain
My loneliness remains until
The day you will return and care for me

The Face In The Mirror
02:39
|
|||
I recognize the face in the mirror
Less with each passing day
A crease on the cheek
A little grey hair
A softer physique
An emptier stare
I recognize that I’m getting older
It happens to everyone
Spring had its day
Summer has just begun
Back of the mind
Three piece suit hangs presentably
Spiderweb, my old friend
What have you done to me
I want to love the face in the mirror
Holding it nearer, studying closely
‘Til I can see the eyes
I recognize

Magic Trick
04:18
|
|||
The Hand, the Girl, the Wand
The curtain draws its weight up high
The balcony, the waiters on the wings
Applaud and fix their eyes
The scheme, the seventh scene, the dream
The Queen of Hearts’ demand
The greatest three to ever stand
The Wand, the Girl, the Hand
|
||||
9. |

Another daydream, another ghost
Another sweet memory
Of all the specters that haunt me the most
It's yours that I still dream of endlessly
And even so, I think that you'll agree
I'm starting to do better
Better at the game they call romance
I'm starting to do better
But when you look me in the eyes that way
I stand no chance
I'm starting to do better
Better at forgetting you were mine
But if we were to kiss
How could I resist?
I'll get to getting better sometime
I'm starting to do better
Better at forgetting you were mine
But if we were to kiss
How could I resist?
I'll get to getting better
Get to getting better
I'll get better another time

For My Forever
01:52
|
|||
For my forever, I'll always be lighting
The lamps on the sidewalk alone
I will be steadfast, abandoning never
The late summer's mist
The will-o-the-wisp
Though you are with me, I'll never forgive me
It's only a matter of time
The numb ones that haunt you
Won't want to say never
So always, forever, and I

George and Violet
02:45
|

“Strange things always seem more like warnings to me”
Violet said to George in Washington, D.C.
Kettle in the kitchen, salesman on the phone
Cradle in the other room when you are alone
“Strange things always seem more like warnings to me
Public transportation, wouldn’t you agree?”
Bus routes adding up to multiples of six
Mockingbirds will follow me, sparrows play their tricks
Songs you used to sing when I was a child
Melodies so simple, very sweet and mild

Though I love the moon and its companion
They’re only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream
Though I love the changing of the seasons
They’re only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream
The moon and the changing of seasons
Shadows of streets and parked cars
Visitor, tall hat in the driveway
Looking and holding the arm
When I put my ear up to the door
I heard him saying:
“It’s only a shadow,
Only a whisper,
Only a lovely dream”
It’s only a shadow
Only a whisper
Only a lovely dream

All day in the mind of somebody else
Someone stronger than me
Familiar and faint, tracing a shadow
Tracing a wall where we used to hang
All day in the mind of somebody else
