The Great Rabbit

I've only come to take your picture
and jump into your river
maybe sink or maybe swim
only the i'll learn just who I am
I can hear you in this song
and I will sing and where you in the eyes of the world
for the path that leads on is lighted by one fire love
and we will sing
CHORUS
Oh mother moon
what do your stars conceal
Oh mother moon what did you hide from me
what did you hide from me
your cold heart and willing hands
were just enough to breath
life into the dark
and make me sing
CHORUS
Oh mother moon
what do your stars conceal
Oh mother moon what did you hide from me

Now I Know
03:53
|

it's been a long long journey to the sea
from the desert where I've been
but when hell begins to feel like home you know you've got to go
so you took me by the hand
you were just a girl then on a long long journey through the night to the shore
and now I know
that this is where your heart resides
so i took you by the hand
I was just a boy then
on a long long journey through the dark
to the sea
so we come from barren lands
standing hand in hand
close our eyes and let the waves wash it all away
wash it all away

Savage Harvest

Savage Harvest
two wild horses caught in the cross hairs
Parallel rivers flow on
short live the fles
but not the bone
CHORUS
Then in spring
blossoms bring
the birds and bees
the circle is complete now
why can't you see
this is what the gods call love
Something as meaningless as this
can drive a wedge between two budding roses
and something as meanness as sex
can bring us closer into bloom
oh the fear I have of loosing you
CHORUS
Then in spring
blossoms bring
the birds and bees
the circle is complete now
why can't you see
this is what the gods call love
savage harvest
two wild horses caught in the cross hairs
parallel rivers flow into one
short lived the flesh but not the bone
short lived the flesh but not the love

Tree #5

feel the wind blow in
and you will know then autumn is gone
and winter has closed her eyes
watch the river flow as only it know
towards the setting sun
to show us whats to come
Chorus
with me and you'll see
that all of this splendor is spring
April rains breath a new
and all of our hearts into bloom
There's a sound from the trees
they silently sing only for my love
and give her harmony
be at one with this and you will know
that you are loved and all of the secrets to come
Chorus
with me and you'll be
part of the splendor that's spring
April rain breaths a new
and all of our hearts into bloom
BRIDGE
so it spreads with such loving grace
and all of the world is in bloom again
and thus in open days
I dream of colors and a frame
CHORUS
Come with me and you'll be
part of the splendor that's spring
April rains bring a new
and all of the world into bloom

What is the Direction?

When you put your ear to the wall do you fell them coming
I hope you know that this is only a feeling
who has stained your heart
come inside your home
how many ways can I say I love you dear until you stop question
from my thrown into your heart is where I belong
this I know
but you are my love
and we are one
from my thrown into your heart is where I belong
this I know
when you put you ear the ground do you hear them coming
just remember that this is only a feeling
if you could hear the things you are saying about yourself
you would drowned in the tears at your feet

Harlem Black Birds
04:12
|
|||
dizzy angles spinning on
everywhere I turn
they never really understand
where it is that they belong
till spring comes again
time for them to move on
CHORUS
Harlem black birds sing
the sea to your door
when the tide it rises
I wont be here anymore
I'll let my heart where the crown
and humbly bow
as I wonder your shore
I know this is where I belong
weaved into the fabric of the stars
now I sing your song
CHORUS
Harlem black birds sing
the sea to your door
when the tide it rises
I wont be here anymore
I'll let my heart where the crown
and humbly bow
Harlem black birds sing
BRIDGE
sitting in a station watching all the world unfold
through the window canvas that welcomes me home
I hope this dream finds you well
now the flowers bloom and it's time for me to go
Harlem black birds sing
Harlem black birds sing
Harlem black birds sing.....

Around The Sun
04:19
|
|||
simmer down child
its only an ocean to cross
so much love when we headed into this
but in time you'll see that nothing is lost
with your heavy heart you curse the ever changing sky
I always wonder if you felt someone is listening
not tonight
its only you and I
Chorus
and now you fear that the whole world is falling to pieces
but you know that love can bring it into one
and all these scars they make us who we are
guided by our hearts on another trip around the sun
another trip around the sun
close your eyes love
for we have only just begun
sometime I fear that your to blind to see
whet is is that you truly need
you hold my heart
you hold the dark
someday you'll have to set one free
but not tonight
it's only you and I
Chorus
and now you fear that the whole world is falling to pieces
but you know that love can bring it into one
and all these stars they make us who we are
guided by our hearts on another trip around the sun
another trip around the sun
Bridge
winters moon she climbs the sky
with a star or two beside
never fearing where she'll lead them
guided only by her love
so much left for us to learn
that only spring time can reveal
Chorus
and now you fear that the whole world is falling to pieces
but you know that love can bring it into one
and all these scars they make us who we are
guided by our hearts on another trip around the sun
another trip around the sun

Winter Woman Magick
03:25
|
|||
winter woman come
in a blinding white snow
ever changing eyes
if only for a time
if only for a time
the sky is swirling overhead
as we wade in the river
bathed in the moonlight
it was you that made the stars shine for me
if only for a time
winter woman come
in a blinding white snow
first sign of spring
and winter woman go

The Seance
03:33
|
|||
Just sit back love
and hold your breath love
for the wave that comes is only the edge of the sea
as big as this seams
there is so much left for us to see
but don't fear love
for these are the same tides that brought you to me
now the moon pulls the strings
Chorus
and we are both reeds
tied to a thread
blown by the will of the wind
and tonight we fly
over the fields
and into the flood again
i'll count to three love
and when you wake up
you will realize this is all but a dream in which you can fly
bend spoons with your mind and
converse with the dead
oh but to what end
were they ever really alive
don't start to cry and fear your alone
you should know
we are two of a kind
Chorus
and we are both reeds
tide to a string pulled at the whim of the moon
and tonight we fly over the fields into the flood again
Bridge
tethered by only a thread
between the night and nothing
still your beauty finds me where
oh it finds me where
I'll count to three love
