Meet me down by the railway station
I've been waiting
And I'm through waiting for you
The train sings the same kind of blues

Well I don't know why I always trusted
Sometimes I think I must have
I must have been crazy
Crazy to wait on you, baby

Well I turned around and got pushed down, baby
Now I decided yesterday that I would leave you
I'm alright...

Please, I've been takin' my time
You know, it's been on my mind
I hope you find a love
Your own designs of love
That's alright...
That's alright

I believe, I believe that I know you
'Cause we've been a long time,
Now I've got to show you, that I
Well, I never did beleive in time
You know, changin' anybody's mind

Now, I can't define love like it should be
That's alright,
That's alright

Please, I've been takin' my time
You know, it's been on my mind
I hope you find a love
Your own designs of love
That's alright, yes
That's alright .....

I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

I am the shoreline, but you're the sea...

Well you say I’m crazy cause I can’t make up my mind
But I wont let it faze me instead I'll leave all these thoughts behind
Cause you say that you got some one who’s wasting your time
Well that’s alright cause I got someone who’s wasting mine...

....It aint my fault I’m falling
Cause you got what it takes
Earthquakes couldn’t shake this
Foundation that were building off of
but a long time I waited but I never lose faith
I meet someone like you yea I’m crazy,
people beg, always searching for balance
sometimes I choose right or wrong
you know its just a challenge but gemini if we try
you and I,
we will find all the time we wasted
just trying to find each other
Yea
Peanut butter jelly, bread and butter

It’s in the way you move
Baby what you’re doing to me
I can’t stand it I can’t hold back
Every time I see you get beautiful, beautiful
It’s in the way you do
Baby what you’re doing to me
The way you shine, strum your cords, the way you're mine
The way you sing your words...


*sigh* love this one for so many reasons.
...finds a home where all echoes rest, where echoes rest.

I will be there for you if it all crumbles down
And I will be there for you when your feet touch the ground
I'll clear the earth for you if you need the stars to dream
And I'll make a flame for you to keep your spirit clean

My Angel, My Mystery Angel

You were there for me when I couldn't find myself
Opened a door for me when there seemed no way out
And you were there with me when I was too young to see
Bringing music through with your wisdom and peace

My Angel, My Mystery Angel

Looking back now I don't think I'll ever understand
Universe offers balance on many different hands
Take some time just to sit with each one just to see
Patiently the right one will hold on 'till you're free

My Angel, My Mystery Angel

There was a Storytellers episode about Norah Jones that I saw last night. It made me want to look up some of her country songs. :)

"The Prettiest Thing"

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was lightening from the top of a cloud
Moving through the dark a million miles an hour
With somewhere to be

So why does it seem
Like a picture
Hanging up on someone else's wall
Lately I haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I know

The prettiest thing
I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
Looks like home to me

I'm dreaming again
Like I've always been
And way down low
I'm thinkin' of the prettiest thing
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
Love is still the best state to live in.

See the curtains hangin' in the window, in the evenin' on a Friday night.
A little light a-shinin' through the window, lets me know everything is alright.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

See the paper layin' on the sidewalk, a little music from the house next door.
So I walked on up to the doorstep, through the screen and across the floor.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.

Sweet days of summer, the jasmine's in bloom. July is dressed up and playing her tune.
And I come home from a hard day's work, and you're waiting there, not a care in the world.
See the smile a-waitin' in the kitchen, food cookin' and the plates for two.
Feel the arms that reach out to hold me, in the evening when the day is through.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.
Summer breeze, makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind...
I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

I am the shoreline, but you're the sea...

Look out of any window
any morning, any evening, any day
Maybe the sun is shining
birds are singing, no rain is falling from a heavy sky

What do you want me to do
to do for you to see you through?
For this is all a dream we dreamed
one afternoon, long ago

Walk out of any doorway
feel your way, feel your way, like the day before
Maybe you'll find direction
Around some corner where it's been waiting to meet you

What do you want me to do
to watch for you while you are sleeping?
then please don't be surprised
when you find me dreaming too

Look into any eyes
you find by you, you can see clear to another day
maybe been seen before
through other eyes on other days while going home

What do you want me to do
to do for you to see you through?
It's all a dream we dreamed
one afternoon, long ago

Walk into splintered sunlight
Inch your way through dead dreams to another land
Maybe you're tired and broken
Your tongue is twisted with words half spoken and thoughts unclear

What do you want me to do
to do for you to see you through?
A box of rain will ease the pain
and love will see you through

Just a box of rain
wind and water
Believe it if you need it
if you don't, just pass it on

Sun and shower
wind and rain
In and out the window
like a moth before a flame

And it's just a box of rain
I don't know who put it there
believe it if you need it
or leave it if you dare

And it's
just a box of rain
or a ribbon for your hair
Such a long long time to be gone
and a short time to be there

I knew a girl
Her name was truth
She was a horrible liar.

She couldn't spend one day alone
But she couldn't be satisfied.

When you have everything,
You have everything to lose.
She made herself
A bed of nails
And she's plannin' on puttin' it to use.

Cause she had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
Diamonds

A candle throws its light into the darkness
In a nasty world,so shines the good deed
Make sure the fortune, that you seek
Is the fortune you need.

So tell me why,the first to ask,is the last to give, every time
What you say and do not mean
Follow too close behind

Cause she had diamonds on the inside
She had diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds on the inside
Diamonds

Like a soldier standing long under fire
Any change comes as a relief.
Let the giver's name remain unspoken
For she is just a generous thief.

But she had diamonds on the inside
Cause she had diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds on the inside
She wore diamonds
Oh diamonds
She had diamonds
She wore diamonds
Diamonds

Do you remember the way
That you touched me before
All the trembling sweetness
I loved and adored?

Your face saving promises
Whispered like prayers
I don't need them
No, I don't need them

O, I need
The darkness
The sweetness
The sadness
The weakness
I need this

I need
A lullaby
A kiss goodnight
The angel sweet
Love of my life
I need this

Is it dark enough?
Can you see me?
Do you want me?
Can you reach me?
Or I'm leaving

You better shut your mouth
Hold your breath
Kiss me now you'll catch my death
O, I mean it ....
I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

I am the shoreline, but you're the sea...

With eyes of fire
No one can see
The smoke from the sweet grass
Covers me

I am drawn
I am drawn to her
Like a moth to flame
She leads me down
Unbound

I am lost
I am lost
Has anybody seen me
I am lost

Oh nothing is forgotten
Only left behind
Wherever I am
She leads me down
Unbound

No borders
No fences
No walls
No borders
No fences
Unbound

Oh, listen for the night chant
Oh, listen for the night chant

Like a moth to flame
She leads me down
Unbound

No borders
No fences
Unbound
No borders
No fences
Unbound
Unbound

"Judge yourself if you feel the need
Just let me known to be
In search of the truth myself
There is a drop of blood on the ground
And it seems to me that it's not my kind
And I can't be sure if its yours or mine."

I've cried 1000 oceans
And if it seems
I'm floating in the darkness
Well, I can't believe that I would keep
Keep you from flying
And I would cry 1000 more
If that's what it takes
To sail you home
Sail you home
Sail you home.....
I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

Joy to the world, your arms kept me warm
Night after night, in such a cold world
Hear the bell strike, old pictures instead
Tell me the past is filling my head
You said then
"I just want to spend a silent night with you"
With you
A silent night with you ....
I'd rather live on a side of a mountain, than wonder through concrete and steel, I'd rather laugh with the rain and sunshine...

This is My Plea, This is My Need
And My Time To Stand It Free
This is Myself, This is My day
In a world that's never safe

It's Ok, It's Ok...

You Know I love You AnyWay

It's Ok, It's Ok...

you don't Have to run and Hide Away
...finds a home where all echoes rest, where echoes rest.

Netflix is great! Last night I watched two music documentaries. One about Glenn Gould, and one about Wilco. Here's a Wilco song. :)

"Side With The Seeds"

Tires type black
Where the blacktop cracks
Weeds spark through
Dark green enough to be blue
When the mysteries we believe in
Aren't dreamed enough to be true
Some side with the leaves
Some side with the seeds

The treetops nod
the rain applauds
The park grows dark
And the swings all slowly die
But you and I will be undefeated
by agreeing to disagree
No one wins but the thieves
so why side with anything

The streetlights glow
Comes and goes
When the sun comes back
As we all can plainly see
Embracing the situation
Is our only chance to be free
I'll side with you
If you side with me
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
Love is still the best state to live in.

Here's another good one. :)

"Secrets Of The Sea"

Who can guess the secret of the sea?
Who can guess the secret of the sea?
If you can guess the secret of my love for you
Then we both could know the secret of the sea

Tell me could you ever tell the secret of the sea?
These high rolling waves along the shore
The footprints of the lovers that come here to love
By the tides washed away forever more

Who can guess the secret of the sea?
Who can guess the secret of the sea?
If you can guess the secret of my love for you
Then we both could know the secret of the sea

You claim to know the secret of a kiss and a hug
The secret of the grass and of the trees
If you can tell the secret of a warm friend's hand
Then we all would feel the secrets of the sea

Who can guess the secret of the sea?
Who can guess the secret of the sea?
If you can guess the secret of my love for you
Then we both could know the secret of the sea
We both could know the secret of the sea
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
Love is still the best state to live in.
