Goodmorning sunshine whats the news What makes your eyes so green and true Reveal to me your mysteries And why its you that makes me sing Lets run away The timings not right is what they all say But lets go anyway This elixir runs out but I am here to stay I find you fascinating me With every smile your beckoning When we’re alone these hearts speak They whisper things we’ve dreamed could be Lets run away The feelings won’t last is what they all say But lets go anyway This elixir may run out but I am here to stay But you and I were meant to be somehow I’m holding you, at last in these arms Come what may, the future’s not important Just today Good morning sunshine Good morning sunshine

Down by the old graveyard Barefoot we'd walk all around Scared not of the ghosts for Flowers we'd plant in the ground Next to the headstones of Parents and lovers and friends More children than children All grown who have stopped visiting And we loved And were loved And the summer sighed And gave up her children I read you books who's Bindings were worn and well known You twirled in skirts who's Fabrics held hues from the loam Byzantium called us to Never no never grow old And us being children Always did just as were told And we loved And were loved And the summer sighed And gave up her children You've picked your plot you say Where forever you'll want to lay And I wonder throughout these days Will I lay beside you always Will I lay beside you always Will I lay beside you always Will I lay beside you always
3.	Live A Little 03:19	lyrics	buy track
Don’t listen to this rhythm Don’t listen to this rhyme If your heart is over-anxious baby Or you just don’t have a love like mine A poet to un-listening ears And a lover with no fears Riches in pennies and coins oh baby If you try you just might prove your point Get back empty cynicism Go home skeptics your a drag Ain’t no movers or shakers ever Live their lives like that Come on live a little But your not all pink and posey Every flower’s got some thorns to show But you can’t help but be lovely baby Oh if we try we just might prove our point Oh but the worlds in your hands now Oh do as you please One thing you should know You may betray me, but I don’t live to please Get back empty cynicism Go home skeptics your a drag Ain’t no movers or shakers ever Live their lives like that Come on live a little
4.	Fleeting Thoughts 04:58	lyrics	buy track
Riding home on the shuttle Watching things pass me by Seems like when you get older Doesn’t seem like you’ve the time But take me slowly home I’m bound to go wherever you go But God knows where theres home Things start to matter when your all alone My thoughts are all scattered Every thought is my own But take me slowly home A place with dim lit lights and melting snow But God knows where theres home God knows where theres home Neon billboards ahead Flashing lights where i’m bound Leave your family photos  And let the traveler be crowned. But take me slowly home When I”m there you bet I’ll let you know But God knows where theres home Home Riding home on the shuttle Watching things pass me by Seems like when you get my age Your just looking for a quiet place to die
5.	Black and Blue 02:39	lyrics	buy track
Take me, to the moon I’ll be waiting, here for you Heart-swept fire, on open wounds Beneath the mire, beauty blooms Beauty blooms See I'm estranged to you Your eyes see through these But these see you I must cross the black and blue Tell her waiting, I’ll be home soon Fall in love with the broken fool Marry him and he’ll marry you Marry you Marry you See I'm estranged to you Your eyes see through these But these see you See I'm estranged to you Your eyes see through these But these see you Take me, to the moon I’ll be waiting, there for you
6.	The Wheat and the Tares 05:22	lyrics	buy track
Good morning dear Have a cup of tea The clouds are growing near Soon He will not see Us at play Oh, what a wonderful day Make your love to me Underneath these clouds They are hiding us From the eyes of God Thanks god he can’t see What would my friends think of me When the clouds all pass We’ll standing there Singing praising songs and vows And showing the world how That we’re happy now As we were yesterday Our souls are fat and loud and gay Until the light of day But we are patient We are humble We are waiting, anticipating Hoping, praying For the overcast of clouds
