Oh Mama 04:18
lyrics
Don’t suggest what I’m thinking I’m gonna be truthful When I feel you’ve laid down all your arms You’ve always got good intentions I know you’re no devil But I grow weary when you play the part I just need to be heard Speak my mind without questions And feel easy I’m no problem to solve My troubled heart just needs time, Dear A slow healing Oh Mama, oh Mama Listen to my song My mind is full of worry My heart is full of doubt Give me space and some freedom To be what I’m feeling Gain some footing on this shaky ground Babe, you’ve gotta believe me I wanna be near you But for now I need to be alone There are times I am strong And other times I am weak, Dear I won’t argue There are days I believe And other days I am doubtful My heart fading Oh Mama... We hold a love that always shakes things up We hold a love that makes us carry on Oh Mama...

I'm A Rose 03:46
lyrics
Vultures dance in figure-eights in the sky Children, always curious, wonder why They don’t know, down below A death has ensued Their beaming eyes stay fixed on The spinning black against blue I’m a rose, I’m a weed I’m a super model, I’m a gamin A branch, a seed I stand at both ends, And I’m in between How do you see me now? Things could get turned around Princes roam as paupers out on the street Once adorned, now soiled down to their feet Everyone, from old to young has worth in their bones Still the masses pass by hurrying to get home I’m a rose... Oh, I’ve waited for an open door To show my way outside When across the room, within my view Is a window open wide I can see my heart is willing to believe But my eyes are blind to how I may receive I’m a rose...

Out On The Road 03:57
lyrics
Out on the road Burning up fuel Far from the noise Busy and cruel The wide open fields Are coming in view The grass is all dead But spring's coming soon Out on the road Where no signal comes through I'm turning my thoughts To remembering you The birds overhead Are lifting me up The river below Is filling my cup Out on the road Taking my time Thinking of you Out in the wind Brushing my face Calling me home To a quieter place Breathing the air Making me clean Lifting my hands Letting me be Out on the road Taking my time Thinking of you...

Go Together 02:48
lyrics
Put your arms Around my neck We’ll go together We’ll turn this thing around Try not to settle down Get our feet up off the ground ‘Til we know Hold my hand Hold my hand We’ll walk together Should we, or should we not Give it a second thought? We’ll I can’t connect the dots So, I don’t know But what have we got to lose? Just our workin’-brother-blues So, come on, put on your shoes Here we go Someone’s in flat-bed truck With his head hung low There’s a dog on the side of the road Takin’ it slow I see clouds of dust Swallowing the sunset’s glow This isn’t what we thought it would be But it’s good to know Young boys and girls Are given new eyes to see Locked doors are open When we give up the keys And if we get lost Falling down to our knees Well Babe, just remember I got you, and you got me I got you, and you got me!

If Your Head Is Made Of Wax 03:54
lyrics
If your head is made of wax If your head is made of wax If your head is made of wax Don’t go walkin’ in the sun, no, no, boy Don’t go walkin’ in the sun If your hair is made of steel If your hair is made of steel If your hair is made of steel Don’t go dancin’ in a storm, no, no, boy Don’t go dancin’ in a storm Boy, you better listen Better take it straight from me I’ve been livin’ by these words since 1963 If your head is made of wax If your head is made of wax If your head is made of wax Don’t go walkin’ in the sun, no, no, boy Don’t go walkin’ in the sun If your hands are made of straw If your hands are made of straw If your hands are made of straw Don’t go startin’ up a fire, no, no, boy Don’t go startin’ up a fire Boy, you better listen Better make your two ears sore You come around again I’ll be sure to give you more! If your heart is made of glass If your heart is made of glass If your heart is made of glass Don’t go fallin’ in-love, no, no, baby Don’t go

I Will Rise For You 03:48
lyrics
I feel heavy now My fingers quiver underneath a gun My legs feel buried in the dirt But I’m ready for the run Streaks of gold light the sky In endless smoke and cloud My sight lies steady on the hill I’ll make death, or meet my own I heard the call, took my place My mother-dear, kissed my face I will rise for you! Shots ring, 10,000 bells, Against my temple drums Silhouettes on the hill Drop like aimless bombs Blood pours out on the ground From my wounded enemies One’s eyes lie open in the light Staring back at me I heard the call... We move onward through the fire Sons and daughters, mines and wire Blazing like the sun Abraham took his son Up the hill with a gun I will rise for you An angel cast the gun aside And spoke to Abe, God will provide I will rise for you!

Saint Maria 02:37
lyrics
Lilium Petals white as snow Candidum On the mountains where you grow A shepherd’s star Shining in the sun A kingdom’s seal Among thorns overrun And I won’t be afraid No, I won’t hide in the shade When the moment calls for courage I’m gonna stand Saint Maria with tangled hair Innocent eyes, and a mother’s care No child laughing on your knee You were uprooted by your own family tree Madonna lilies stained in red On the side of your hospital bed Oh, your body was broken But your soul never bled Lift your eyes To where your help comes from The mountain spies Testify to everyone And I won’t be afraid No, I won’t hide in the shade When the moment calls for glory I’m gonna stand Saint Maria...

Confession 03:39
lyrics
I’m a fading flame I can’t say when I began to dim Born to know the truth God is not gonna give up on me yet I’ve been reaching out my hands In the dark for far too long Hoping I could feel my way To where my heart belongs I’ve made no quiet place Where I can hang my coat And let myself be known Honest and exposed Who can know the truth? I can only guess we’re half-awake Walking in a dream And it scares me half to death To think I’m right There’s just too much trouble Breaking ground beneath my feet To think that I could keep on walking And never know defeat Come inside with me We’ll hang up our coats Let ourselves be known Honest and exposed I’ve been reaching out my hands In the dark for far too long Hoping I could feel my way To where my heart belongs Come inside with me We’ll hang up our coats Let ourselves be known Honest and exposed

Live Life Slow 07:28
lyrics
You were a young girl And we were just friends those days Carefree and simple Trouble was miles away We walked in the springtime Sang out a song all the way Our melodies blooming Our harmonies tangled and stray It wasn’t long before we knew This was love We let it grow, year by year Warm as a glove Leaves were caught falling Over our heads in the frame Bright red and yellow The day that I gave you my name We made a home, Hand in hand, side by side Some days were clear, others dark We laughed and we cried And I won’t let go And I won’t let go now Now we are older Life seems to pass us by We spend our days spinning The pace of life runs us dry We hear it said, open up Take what you can It sound so good But I find myself Lost in the span And I won’t let go And I won’t let go now When life moves too fast, Dear The things that I love begin to choke I need you to hear me I need you to know this ain’t no joke We’ve all got soil Down where we know who we are Don’t let it turn dry as stone Live life slow What a beautiful sky tonight What a beautiful sky How grateful am I tonight

I'm Still Sleeping 04:28
lyrics
When you walk down the hall I can hear, I can hear you When you walk down the hall I can hear, and I’m still sleeping When you walk down the hall 6:00 a.m., and I can hear you Don’t wake the baby When you open the door I can hear, I can hear you When you open the door I can hear, and I’m still sleeping When you open the door 6:00 a.m., and I can hear you Don’t wake the baby The sun is rising over head I’m hiding in our bed I’m dreaming you’re asleep next to me, Dear Birds are singing in the trees Criss-crossing melodies I’m silent with the lullaby of breathing
