Simple Tree (bonus track)
. . .


Here's to the lone and wayward sun,
For to love is to leave
For to run like a rolling stone
I fell in with men who were wicked in the end
As we roam bye and bye so these crimes multiply

See this wayward sun, boy
May you live to run another day
Dark is the heart
And dreams will come
To the swift and the dead
To the _____ and the wayward sun
My love can't you see what is happening to me
All I touch turns to sand
Sifting out through my hand

I can see the future in your eyes
Shining like a million skies,
Over all, over all my petty crimes,
I've a built a _______
I know you should hate me,
But you celebrate me every time I'm on your side,
My eyes open wide,
You just winging like a bird out over the void
And all my petty crimes and curses,
They are destroyed

I know you should hate me,
But you elevate me up into the stratosphere,
I no longer care that I am terrified, alright,
But you are the cure,
Because all my petty crimes and curses,
They disappear.

I can feel the future in your skin,
Edge the spirits as they spin,
All around, all around my petty crimes
I've built a tree
I know you should hate me,
But you rearrange me
Coming off the starting line,
All hammer and twine,
The future is winging like a bird
Out over the void
And all my petty crimes and curses they are destroyed.

Now then a serpent spoke to me,
It was hanging from a pale and nameless tree,
On the bed, with a ______ on its head,
It's voice was like the wind that blows,
Like a thousand crows rising into flight
__________, alright.

So now I left him in his tree,
To score some horses,
To the road that runs in circle to the sea,
But the snake he followed me,
So I hopped a ship,
A silver sea,
Past galaxies and stars with speed,
To end this planets __________

Where will you go,
When our love's gone?
When this world of ours is nothing more than a long lost song?
This road that we're on is where we both belong?
As the years disappear will you wait for me here?
See this wayward sun, boy
May you live to run another day

. . .


Crucify the blinding sky for light
Love's lover is like a lightning rod
Howling wind has been heard in my head
Dead dreamers in a burning car

Your mind is a diamond blue and green
Shining out through your eyes like falling leaves
When you open your mouth a swarm of bees will appear

My dear steer clear, have no fear
For you know just what they call you here:
You're the laughing lover covered in tears

Steal away the sun, the moon and stars
Start simple with a woman's voice
Wisdom lingers on the fingers of the fortress
Like a lazy ghost

Your mind is a dragon of dying bird
Like to circle the flames singing words unheard
When you're death like a thread pulls you in and your lover herds
My dear its clear have no fear

For you know just what they call you here: you're the laughing lover covered in tears

Sanctify the blinding sky for light weaves wonders out of bits of clay
Howling wind has been heard in my head breaking bread, but in a gentle way

Your mind is a diamond blue and green
Shining out through your eyes like falling leaves
When you open your mouth a swarm of bees will appear

My dear its clear have no fear
For you know just what they call you here you're the laughing lover covered in tears

. . .


Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Heaven's right below the hurricane
Heaven's right below yeah

Touching down, I see the lights
Taxi drive through rainy nights
Finger ride on window pane
That heaven's in a hurricane

Hey babe, don't you know it's all the same
Heaven's right below the hurricane
and Hell's contained in every single flame
but Heaven's right below yeah

Driving up through trees so bare
I know you're here but I don't know where
World is wide and waiting there
Stop to rest at rivers edge
Your cigarette is burning red
And if hell's in every single flame
Then Heaven's in a hurricane

She said I think I'm still asleep at the wheel
you can say anything you want
I sense your eyes conceal the things that you steal
from the man who has let you down

She said I toss and I turn
in dreams I discern
setting shapes coming through the trees
I said your eyes may believe
but the heart will deceive
let us run while we're young and free

. . .


I had a lover, her name was Grace
She found me down in a lonely place
She dug me out with an old jaw bone
She dressed me up for to take me home
She fed me words that I could not taste,
For I had no tongue, it had been replaced
By a green and a growing flower which grew
And I knew if I ever spoke, I would speak true

We lived together in an old hotel
A broke-down palace with a wishing well
The neighbor girl taught me how to spell
And how to steal what I could not sell
But I fed my tongue on the Devil's rum
In a roadhouse run by a godless bum
On a drunken night, with a stolen gun
I shot my lover as she made to run
The judge said, "Son, what have you done?"
But I didn't speak a word, no I didn't speak one
And the judge sent me away
And they buried my Grace, yeah, the very next day

They sent me out on a midnight train
In the rain, rolling down through the dusty plain
Four men sitting with an old shotgun,
Silver stars pinned on every one
They busted my mouth for to get at my tongue
To see just how this had all begun
So I opened my mouth like a dragon's breath
I only spoke truth, but it only brought death
And I laid those boys to rest
For the truth, in truth, is a terrible jest

For there ain't no road but the road to home,
There ain't no crops but the ones you've sown
And if you learn one thing from me
You better guard your tongue like your enemy

I came to ground in a one-horse town
On the western rim where the sun goes down
Where a branded man might start again
For to right his wrong, for to lose his sin
But my tongue kept growing, it would not cease
I grew quite weary, couldn't get no release
So I went to the magistrate and turned myself in,
Picked up a shovel, and he made the grin
And they planted me by the sea
Now the birds of the air make nests on me

Love and Hate

. . .


Heaven and earth are mine says I

Over the western world
Shadows fall
Under the kind and dying trees
We call
Together
Still to feel
The breeze
To shatter
All these waking dreams we've told ourselves
To keep us free and clean

Heaven and earth are mine says I

There is a love that sleeps
Inside the canyons
Of our deepest dreaming
Lies a shelter that cannot be lost
A name that is so deep and far across
I know you had to leave
Know me
Your life is like a bolt of lightning see
Across the sky so high and clean

Heaven and earth are mine says I

Over the western world
Shadows fall
Under the kind and dying trees
We call
Together
Still to feel the breeze
To shatter all these waking dreams we've told ourselves
Yea ourselves

Heaven and earth are mine says I

. . .


Make your way to the beat of the drum
Make your way to the beat of the drum
pray this day maybe best as one
Make your way to the beat of the drum

hold me tight in the light of the running sun
oh oh oh
your running sun
oh oh oh
your running this on, my love
Yeah

make your way to the crack of the guns
up through the heat of the running suns

treetops sway as drape toward the wind and the rain
oh oh oh
its whats the earth can contain
oh oh oh
can we take the best as one

mandrakes clap as we gather in haze
and let the sun burn through to the ancient debates
you are half my heart set apart to the end of the day
oh oh oh oh

Riff twice, then Solo

Make our way to the beat of the drum
pray this day maybe best as one

Ill always race to the place of the dragon's song
oh oh oh
they draging this on
oh oh oh
they dragin this on my love

mandrakes clap as we gather in haze
and let the sun burn through to the ancient debates
you are half my heart set apart to the end of the day
oh oh oh oh

Riff once, End

. . .


When your love rains down just like diamonds all around
Strange and changing sound transformation in the ground
Great and winding tree splits the earth from sea to sea
And my lover comes to me, bids me follow endlessly
As she laughs and starts to climb through the branches and the vines
Through the tangle of our minds
For this tree you see it grows, never-ending

When your love flows free just the way it's meant to be
All these chains that bind I find I quickly leave behind
And all the earth below seems a thin and fleeting snow
And my father I concede is further up upon the tree
And his beard is made of bees dancing wildly in the leaves
And my lover says to me you must be blind if you're to see
Must walk behind if you're to lead
Must be the soil to the seed never-ending

For I feel the years like distant gears may turn and come to rest
Where they dwell within my chest
Let my spirit coalesce
Yes and death is dressed in colors blessed a mystery I confess I cannot see

When your love rains down the sound of singing so profound
Fills the ground so deep like a weeping mothers sleep
As a baby's breath whispers death so none can hear
And I passed the ancient seer
Entering the atmosphere
In a tree that never ends with my lover and our friends
Entering the black of space
We replace the stars that shine never-ending

. . .


You're a broken-hearted party girl
Your skirt's on fire, your hair's uncurled
Your dancing days are at an end
Yeah, you've got no one to call your friend
All you've got left is a silhouette,
An empty bed, and a cheap Corvette
You're a long way from your sweet sixteen
You need some stonewashed jeans
And a time machine

To take you back
To that railroad track
Where you first took flight
In the morning light
So take me back
To that first romance
When you made your stand
You were hand-in-hand
With the black-eyed angel of the evening star

When you came to the city in your cheap perfume,
And you ran through the room,
But you grew up soon
Always dressed like a killer in the afternoon
Sipping warm champagne from a silver spoon
In the night you would travel in your lover's car
With your jewels so bright, like a shooting star
But your nightmares must have caught up with you
And all the pills and the prophets couldn't get you through

To take you back
To that railroad track
Where you first took flight
In the morning light
So take me back
To that first romance
When you made your stand
You were hand-in-hand
With the black-eyed angel of the evening star

So take me back

You were found on the ground in a lonely town
At the end of the world, in a dressing gown
Your hair was on fire, your shoes were misplaced
On your face was a trace of a distant place
It's a long way home back to Wichita
Where they put you back together,
Filled your head with straw
Now all you've got left is a silhouette,
And a cheap Corvette, but girl, you ain't dead yet

So take me back
To that railroad track
Where you first took flight
In the morning light
So take me back
To that first romance
When you made your stand
You were hand-in-hand
With the black-eyed angel of the evening star

. . .


Lover, leave me drowning in the early morning
Sitting on the surface in the cold, cold night
I am always sleeping when you come

Lover, leave your clues within my shoes so lonely
Dimly-lit descriptions of the ocean's floor
I am always sleeping when you come

When you go, you sew the storms together
When you touch my face, the oceans part
Whippoorwills descend to take you home again,
Lonely from the darkness of my heart
My heart

When you go, you sew the storms together
When you touch my face, the oceans part
Whippoorwills descend to take you home again,
Lonely from the darkness of my heart
My heart

Lover, leave me drowning in the early morning
Sitting on the surface in the cold, cold night
I am always sleeping when you come

. . .


I'm a long way from my home
I was born on the raging sea
And when I first struck land,
With my head in hand
I built a house out of an old oak tree
And raised a family out of earth and electricity
I was king of my domain
But my fortitude had proved in vain
And when the locusts came
Like a summer rain
Devouring everything that I held dear
And all I'd worked for simply disappeared
So I crept away
For I had debts to pay
And joined the army as a privateer
Yeah, it was then, the wind it whispered
But I would not hear

So we sailed out across the land
Through an ocean made of sinking sand
And though I lost my men,
I was born again
As a tailor in an unknown land
With a needle and some thread in hand
Mending suits and slacks,
Stitching up the cracks
In the backs of my neighbors' heads
And soon the word, yeah, of my work, it spread through the town

So before the king I stood
I said, "I come from the raging sea
And if the truth be told,
I am not so old
As you may first have taken me to be
For numbers never could apply to me
For I'm as old as time,
And maybe half as blind
What some of you might call infinity
I am the tailor of the earth and electricity."

. . .


Sadie
Make her stay
If only
For another day
Shoulder blades and sunlight
It never seems to feel right
Sadie I
I can never change
I can never change
For to change is to allow the power to rearrange the wreakage of our hearts

Sadie
Whats the score
In writing above the door
Sadness rides along
The road were
Travelling on
Cause Sadie I
I can never change yeah
I can never change yea
I can never change

So take your own advice
You better think twice when you find your love is gone
And like the sun it waits for none
I know its true but I dont have a clue
What'd you want me to do?

So Sadie make a stand
If only for another weekend
The stage is swept the props all gone
And im left here with nothing but this cheap love song
Cause Sadie I
I can never change
I can never change
I can never change
I can never change

For to change is to allow the power to rearrange the wreakage of our hearts
