- A Million Years
A million years she'd been awake
A million years she prayed
For one familiar soul to help her navigate her way
She stood agog at the spray of stars
And thought aloud each day:
I've been here so long
Holding on, but
- Animal Love I
his crowded room has a hundred ghosts
But it's your pretty green eyes that please me the most
I fully know this is dangerous
But I've never been too good at control
Cuz when I look at you baby it's like looking straight into the sun
And I don't wanna look away cuz I know I'm gonna lose my guns
Go ahead and take my conviction
- Different Colored Eyes
Dreaming into the sunlight
Bluebirds fly
Wanting also to unwind
And forget, finally
I know now that silence speaks
To walk away would be so sweet
Let me love again, please
- Don't Make Me Believe
Where you go
Where you go I would follow
Over mountains
Fields and houses
And you have grown
Sure and slow all your secrets
Within my heart
- Human
Worshipped a deity
A false god I praised
He had two legs to walk
And a smile on his face
He seemed infallible
I thought someone this great
Surely must be from above
- Hummingbird Heart
Turn on the lights, I feel blue
By seven am only seven winks through
Guess once again I'll try my luck
At catching up to speed with my hummingbird heart
I want a sea of faces
Nobody that I know
They'll holler when they hear my name
- I Dream an Ocean
I dream an ocean of relief when I see you reaching out for me
Your fingers reaching for my fingers as the riptide gleams
But I know it’s not, not the way you feel and I
Know I’m not what you thought you needed
But I could swear I saw in your eyes
More than a trick of the light
Guess you were just one more drop into the blue
- Magnolia Wine
Magnolia Wine
remove me like the ring you're wearing
forget that far away I sleep
among the hordes of the memories, merlot, women's magazines
and when the sun comes up tomorrow
another shady late entry
another lie among the never-saids buried in between
- Poison Apple
Well you don't think that it's working
Cuz you don't think it's sublime
And these windows only hurt you
As you hold me close tonight
I've been dreaming still of wingless birds that circle in the sky
Certain to plummet forth the second they look down from up on high
- Woman Up
The golden boy in the crowd
The world loves him now
And so do you
But his mirror shows only himself
It'd be easy to tell if you had my view
You might go hungry, might go blind (everything fades)
If you keep on keeping him in mind (take it away)
