Wild Freeway

I am longing to get you home, babe
I am longing to have you alone, babe
I am dreaming of your ruffled hair, babe
Right now I am drinking the memories we share,
Babe
I'm avoiding telling you all the waves that I can feel
While you stand half naked, leaning against my window sill
But I'm dreaming of driving round a great big hill
I can feel your kisses on me, still
I still hang around you, despite all the evidence
I'm still glad I found you, despite my past
And darling, I know the good things never last
But right now just kiss me slowly, love
Kiss me slowly, not fast
We're both avoiding speaking of the things that we conceal
You are wild like the freeway underneath my wheel
I'm dreaming of the way your touches feel
I can feel your flowers on me love
I can feel them still.

Suddenly Tamed

Suddenly tamed, the stars in your halo
The sky that has changed
You live there with Godot
Something like fate reflects through your window
Its enough to bring you back from zero
Wake! (water in the ground)
Record the lake
Document its sound
Something like waves reverberate through clouds
Its enough to bring you into right now
Reaching our hands across still water
Casual stand, something like laughter
Dancing to Can
Spilling a puzzle
Its enough to make me want to let go of doubt
Scream through the signal
Electrical drown, trees in your igloo
Embrace in sound
Embrace in circles
Its enough to bring you back from zero
Unclothed in your chair of pastel green leather
I simply stare at you in your sweater
Look at your hair fall on your shoulder
Its enough to make my hands explore your thorns
The roses look dreamy
The sand is forlorn
cause the prince is leaving
The pages are torn -- drawing what you see
Its enough to tame the sky around me, love
Float home, love.

Dark Fountain

I lived in a dark landscape
once but its alright
I made jewels out of my heartbreak
once but its alright
I ran from deep blue fountains
once but its alright
I ignored the holy mountain
once but its alright
I lived in deepest regrets
once but its alright
I made gold out of dark secrets
once but its alright
I ran to forbidden mountains
I ignored the holy fountains
I made love to all my mistakes
I made inventions from my heartbreaks
Saying please please will you lend me a hand
I'm ready to see the light
Please please please will you lend me a hand
I'm ready to see the light
And get this shadow off of me ...
Don't want this darkness no more
Don't want my shadow controlling what I see
I run, I don't walk, there's honey in your embrace
Yea darling I'm a swamp
You're the alligator that would make me want
I come, destroy, succumb, I don't feel no joy
When I come I do not talk
Kill the lovely flower just to feel its stalk.
Please please help me understand
I'm ready to see some light
Please please please show me how to stand
I'm ready to feel this light
Get this shadow off me
Get this shadow right off of me
I don't want this shadow no more
Don't want my shadow controlling what I see
(When I'm reborn again, my love it will wake)

Movie Ending
03:08
|
|||
Staring at a broken floor:
"You don't know me"
You and I we were tumbling around,
pretending we were still free.
Your hat blows off in the wind,
it puts the fire right out
You know I felt you were my friend
before the feelings went south
I just wasn't wild enough for you
I just wasn't your type of crazy blue
I wanted a movie ending
Before you went dark suddenly
I couldn't comprehend it
We used to laugh between your sheets
I used to stare at your hands
I liked it when your head hit my chest
Can we have a drink and rewind ourselves?
Figure out the rest, I guess...
I was never wild enough for you
I was never your type of crazy blue.
Put me on like you used to ...

So long,
it was good to see ya
Have you in my arms,
You pick up the receiver
Its been so long
since I decided to leave ya
I was so so wrong
when I thought I didn't need ya
You're on the platform
I could've sworn that I dreamed ya
Oh I want to transform
back into a believer
Sing me a lovely song
with a chorus that lingers
I've been thinking all night long
Memories burn my fingers
You give me one more ticket
One more ticket to live
We ride the train past midnight
Got all this loving to give
Its just one more paper
One paper to destroy
I'm falling down a dark fortress
I'm a tumbling boy
So long
It was good to see ya
And have you in my arms
You pick up the receiver
Its like an alarm
that wakes me up with a stinger
I was never strong
I was just a deceiver
We got one more train ride
One more ride to the coast
I see you blurry now
You float away like a ghost
You give me one more message
One more message to lift
I'm missing you like lightning
Its just the way that it is
You got one more ticket
One more ticket to touch
I'm feeling real fuzzy now
Looking at my broken watch
You give me one more paper
One paper just to torch
I'm falling down a dark vortex
Memories are too much
(So long,
it was good to see you)
Embrace on the platform
Your lips make me dream
And its been so long
But I know I still need ya
Oh you dress like a potion
and my memory lingers
(( Spend all my time writing about ghosts / gazing at the vanishing point in the coast / daydream daydream invisible boat ///
write it all down to watch the train float....))))
I can feel the light go on,
and move me away from the vanishing song
I can feel the violent dawn move me away
from the Train Plaform.

I'm not an honest man but the good lord knows that I tried
And the day that you left is a day in which I never cried
