Chariot 03:20
Joy to the weather I'll see you all soon  I'll be wearin my victory shoes  And I'll be better, I'll have slotted on through  Now that you've come to my rescue  Cause wild forces that used to oppose  Are reconciling didn't you know  My left and right, your highs and lows  Have been waiting for us to let go  So let go and let flow  They wanna tell you that you're not alone  When tides are low the cavalry best is shown  Love to my sister and that which she sees  That nobody else would dare tell me  And to you whisper doubting incessantly  Well if you'd kindly let me be  Cause wild forces that used to oppose  Are reconciling didn't you know  My left and right, your highs and lows  Have united in the same flow  So let go and let flow  They wanna tell you that you're not alone  When tides are low the cavalry best is shown  So let go and let flow  They wanna tell you that you're not alone  So let it go and let it flow Red and blue, one by one  So let go and let flow  I wanna tell you that you're not alone  So let go and let flow yeah red and blue one by one  So let go and let flow  They wanna tell you that you're not alone  When tides are low the cavalry best is shown

Moonsong 04:39
Smooth operator yes I really think that you are  And all the young women they treat you like some kinda star  And I'm so quixotic when I'm talking to you  I paint a pretty picture now whenever you are around  Well all this seek and show someday you're gonna get to know me  And I will too, yes I will  I'll watch you cry in the river while I pray to the moon that this All ends soon just want to feel brand new  And while you're wondering what brought you here and I'm Thinkin of June oh you'll say  Come cry in the river honey lets, let us pray to the moon  Been a few weeks you're now familiarizing my skin  And I've grown into thinking the same kinda thoughts that you're in  And I was in you're dream last night we were running for our lives  You couldn't wait for morning time to wake and see if I'm alright  Well all this seek and show someday you're gonna die just to hold me  And I will too, yes I will  I'll watch you cry in the river while I pray to the moon that this All ends soon just want to feel brand new  And while you're wondering what brought you here and I'm Thinkin of June oh you'll say  Come cry in the river honey lets, let us pray to the moon  Well all this seek and show someday you're gonna come to loathe me  And I will too, yes I will  I'll watch you cry in the river while I pray to the moon  That this all ends soon just want to feel brand new  And while I'm wondering what brought you here  And you're thinkin of June oh you'll say  Come cry in the river honey lets, let us pray to the moon  Come cry in the river honey lets, let us pray to the moon  Come cry in the river honey lets, let us pray to the moon

All My Power 04:47
Honey I know how bad this sounds But sometimes when you're up it brings me down Cause some days yeah I'd do anything just to see you But sometimes I swear I might rather just be you Cause all my power Is given to you And you're just perfect havin' Nothin' to do with it Now there is a list of things that I am burning to do so bad It includes you boy it's unfortunate Cause I get so mucked up in the mud of my love for you Forget all the other things I've been burnin' to do Because all my power Is given to you And you're just perfect havin' Nothin' to do with it And when i get real low well I might write a song for you And i guess that's fortunate cause it was on my list to do You'll write me one, I will act resolved But have a problem with the tone of it all Because all my power Is given to you And you're just perfect havin' Nothin' to do with it Yeah all my power Is given to you And you're just perfect havin' Nothin' to do with it All my power All my power All my power All my power

Father help me please as I lay me down to sleep I fear they'll take my soul before I wake Shield me from disease set my restless mind at ease You've got no clue what is at stake And I went to the doctor just to see if he would tell me That everything was wrong Cause strange things have shown themselves to me Makes me wonder just how we might fair along We'll fair along Cause I've seen sin and I've watched it win Like the only hope we've got is these bones that we're in But the joke on me fear laughs wildly Is the love that knows there's nothing to win Nothing to lose Push and pull a busy mind and patient soul Yes badness is manifold it seems Cause mathematically there isn't much that comforts me But the goodness that subsists so simply You playful little thing please pull me from this string It ties itself in knots and chains And as I trail your glow the temporary's letting go And suddenly I don't feel any pain Cause I've seen sin and I've watched it win Like the only hope we've got is these bones that we're in But the joke on me fear laughs wildly Is the love that knows there's nothing to win Yes I've seen sin and I've watched it win And the only hope I had was the bones that I was in But the joke on me fear laughed wildly Is the love that knows there's nothing to win Nothing to Lose Nothing to win nothing to lose Nothing to win nothing to lose Nothing to win nothing to lose

That April night when I sat in your car and cried  All tripped out on what happens when we die  You went and bought me a book about a leaf  You knew it might comfort me  You make me feel like I'm the only girl in the room  That knows just the way to disgust you  I beg for you to reach out and touch me  You wouldn't dare you've got too much love for me  And I think that you are the most peculiar thing  And they all say that we are the most peculiar thing  From your guarded heart to the lies that I told  We'll likely grow apart if we don't grow old  November in LA when we'd go driving  That summer day I got all tripped out on dramamine  That time in Georgia when we sweat 'til you got sick  You nearly died but you went along with it  Because you think that I am the most peculiar thing  And they all say that we are the most peculiar thing  From your guarded heart cause the lies that I told  We'll likely grow apart if we don't grow old Because you think that I am the most peculiar thing  And they all say that we are the most peculiar thing  From your guarded heart cause the lies that I told  We'll likely grow apart if we don't grow old

Spare Heart 02:42
It seems these days that I give and I give and you get  And you're not worth it but I haven't figured it out yet  And you don't care to see me just get high with your friends  But you really wanna see me just not on the weekends  But you treat me so kind when I walk into a room  Yeah you burn me baby but your flame goes out so soon  And any joy that you bring me you keep for yourself  You tell me I'm pretty, is that why you keep me on the shelf?  And I see your friends around they say you talk about me all the time  And you think of me at any thought of something magic or light  Yeah but I'm too young and too available  Well I don't find that at all relatable I don't find that at all relatable
7.
All I really want is something to care for  Can I care for you?  Lookin' for something I can say a prayer for  To say a prayer for me too And I don't know where this all is going to  But I do hope it has somethin' to do with you  Woke up this morning chokin' on feelings and cold philosophies  Now I can't find nothin' that can get past this fine blade of scrutiny  And I don't know if anything will get through  But I do hope with all of my soul that it's you  Lookin' for my grip you sense it in my hips whenever you take ahold  This light as a feather is gettin' much better but it's still gettin' quite old  And I've tried anchors, I've tried tape and glue  But the only thing that sticks to me is you  Yes the only thing that sticks to me is you The only thing that sticks to me is you

Make It Easy 04:19
You should wake up with a smile on your face Monday Tuesday everyday Cause honey I'm so happy for you And looking back I cannot recall a time When everything was more alright Than when I was believing it true Ooh child let me make it easy When your heart's on fire and your hope's all gone Whoo child you gotta take it easy Someday soon you'll be singing this song Darkness yes sometimes I love when you pull me down Just so I can then figure out how I have better things to do And fire I used to be like yeah give me more But baby I got burned before And boy did I learn better than to Ooh child let me make it easy When your heart's on fire and your hope's all gone Whoo child you gotta take it easy Someday soon you'll be singing this song Trust and patience easy to say Well I've been waitin' every day yeah I've been waitin' every day yeah Trust and patience hard to do Well if I'm smart I'll wait for you yeah We both know I'll wait for you yeah I will Wait for you I will wait for you I will wait for you But ooh child let me make it easy When your heart's on fire and your hope's all gone Whoo child you gotta take it easy Someday soon you'll be singing this song You should wake up with a smile on your face Monday Tuesday everyday Cause honey I'm so happy for you (x3)

Love Once 04:11
My dreams are the places where you write it down  The algorithms to pull me out of  These weird places that I trip into  Cause when I fall asleep it's you I fall into  When I fall asleep it's you I fall into  I go to the doctor just to hear him say  That the whole wide world is A Okay  But nothing can console me quite the way  That your lips they put my trips at bay  Your lips they put my trips at bay  And if you were all I had  I would not be so sad  If you were all I ever had  It could not be that bad  Cause love once was had  Love once was had  I go to the ocean just to figure out  That the world it's made of up and down  And no one can tell me why or how  But it's love, it's love, it's love, it's love somehow  It's love, your love, I know it's love somehow  And if you were all I ever had  Well I would not be so sad  If you were all I ever had  Well it could not be that bad  Cause love once was had  If love once was had
10.
The Fall 04:38
I feared the fall would never come  My head was burning with the sun  I doubted every day  I doubted the world away But he said  He said please believe me, in just one thing  You can believe in everything  Tell me have you ever lost your mind  And was it out runnin' around with mine  I doubted if they'd ever come back  But if they did how we would have a good laugh  He said please believe me, in just one thing  You can believe in everything  Please believe me, in just one thing  You can believe in everything  And when the fall it finally did  I stood there laughing in the wind  My cold bare feet on the pavement  My cold bare feet on the pavement  And said please believe me, in just one thing  You can believe in everything  Please believe me, in just one thing  You can believe in everything
11.
I Love You 04:26
When you're on the road and I'm flyin' all over the place I tell you I miss you but that is just something I say Cause I love you in Brooklyn, I loved you in San Francisco And I'll love you in Nashville, I love you in bed when I'm alone When we're in Japantown at dusk at a bar on the bridge Havin' more fun than I or anyone else ever did I blame the sake the weather the hotel room But if I'm bein' honest I'd say I was fallin' for you, fallin' for you Then finally when I get you in my arms I'm all over you like the mornin' dew is the dawn I'll hope that you say it before I can't help but to Cause lord if you don't it might pour out of me all over you Like I love you I love you I love you I do I love you I love you my darlin' it's true And if you could just say it right out I would sing it back to you Like I love you I love you I love you I do... (Repeat)
