Aquatics in Outer Space
03:01
|

Balance is the key to life.
To all the people in the universe: We're swimmin'!
We're on a ride and we are swimming around our own black hole, we are swimming around.
Are we the only ones who are aware about our footprints on this place?
Show me the quickest way to paradise.
I'll say, the turtle will win the race, always.
We are aquatics in outer space, eternally swimming around in circles with you through the Milky Way.
We're on a ride and we are swimming around our own black hole, we are swimming around. We're on a ride and we are swimming around our own black hole, we are swimming around.
Lift off! (5, 4, 3, 2, 1) 18,000 miles per hour, approaching outer space.
Moonshine, I will bottle you up for another time, then drink you at the speed of light.
We are aquatics in outer space, eternally swimming around in circles with you through the Milky Way.
We're on a ride and we are swimming around our own black hole, we are swimming around.

Home and Lilacs
04:00
|
|||
|
Purple lilacs, waiting for me. Yellow bees on velvet violet leaves.
Soft slow steps deep in the forest. Through the trees, I touch the passing leaves.
Home. I miss my home. It's a place that I know and love, I always will.
Yeah yeah yeah
When we were kids, you told us, "Home is where the heart is."
And I need to know when will I go home?
Sentimental candor has got a man like me.
I am here but I am there in my mind (in my mind).
We judge all our happiness by the levels there before.
It may be good to see things as they are (as they are).
I wouldn't be the first caught looking through a tinted glass.
Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.
Warn down staircase from your footsteps
Lived-in rooms where I protected you.
Woods where you roamed endlessly.
All my trees could tell your stories.
Home. I miss my home. It's a place that I know and love. I always will.
Yeah yeah yeah
When were were kids you told us, "Home is where the heart is."
And I need to know, when will I go home?

I know you'll be alright, smiling while surrounded by lovely white light.
When you went to clean the stove pipe, a leaf had come to say,
"Hello my darling, there is something I would like to tell you. That I am with you still."
Far far far away alone in the woods. What can ya, what can ya do?
Wait for the spring, the flowers will sing lovely songs for you.
They'll say, "We would like to tell you that we're with you still. We would like to tell you that we're with you still."

In the past thoughts of past things that we love, oh my mama, oh my mama, don't get locked up. We are with ya still.
What is here, what is now, what is present. Look around! All the flowers, they are singing, "We are with ya still."
To dance, you gotta feel something. Something that'll make you wanna move. Love is certain. He left, but he's still with you. oooh

I'm gonna wake up in the morning
Rise before the sun doth shine

I'm gonna buy some cinnamon bread
Then I realize
All the bills stacked high
Pay 'em off
Goodbye

We gotta scrape the pennies, nickels and dimes
Woah! Hard workin' People rise up in the morning together

What Means the Most

Oh, how it breaks my heart
When we don't see
Just how lovely love can be
Old knees and chosen seats
Just get in the way
Let's put all of this behind
When you choose to take the time
To talk about what's on your mind
And just forgive
When you put your arms around
The ones you love and care about
It heals the soul and makes us whole
Please don't lose sight of what means the most to you
Please don't lose sight of what means the most

Wide Open Spaces

|

I would like to journey to wide open spaces
I'll travel back in time to wide open spaces
Greet the prehistoric life of wide open spaces
Make new friends and fall in love with wide open spaces
Ooooh Ooooh
Farther and farther into the past
All things changing right before us
Moments erasing as we pass
All that we know spirals backwards
Ba da da da Ba da da da da da
Hold on tight to my hand, don't let go
We will be alright tomorrow
Oooooh
I'll be going on my way, on my way
to places that I wanna stay, wanna stay
I'll be going on my way, on my way

Fill Me Out
02:56
|
|||
|
It's fun to work your ass off
Cause it's worth it in the end
I've been working so hard, my friend
I've been squeezing the sponge dry
now there's nothing left inside
Fill me out, fill me out I need some
Fill me out, fill me out I need some
Fill me out, fill me out I need some love
I just wanna know, how do the bees do it?
There always going
All trying to get that pollen
Trying to make that honey
that's what I'm trying to do, too
Trying to make that honey, baby I'm trying
Trying to make that honey, you know we're trying
We're both trying so hard and we're buzzing and buzzing around
Tonight is a night where we say
What is, what is, what is, shall be
There's no reason to go trying to shape it
and make it seem so fancy
Sometimes you're just stuck and you don't know
how to get out of where you are
But you try and you try and you try and you'll see that
eventually you'll be free

Stolen the Money
02:30
|

We got it all
We got away
Strollin' down the street
Looking out the corner of our eyes
Tryin' to be as cool as we can with a sweet smile
We've stolen the money
You won't get it back
We've stolen the money
You won't get it back
Cause we're gone for good now
To the Bahamas
Where the breeze blows
and the drinks are cool
To the Bahamas
Where you can't catch us
Cause we got away
It feels so good to get away
Would you like to come eat with us tonight?
I will buy you dinner, ha!
On second thought I will buy everybody else's dinner as well
Cause I'm loaded
We've stolen the money
You won't get it back
We've stolen the money
You won't get it back
Cause we're gone for good now
To the Bahamas
Where the breeze blows
and the drinks are cool
To the Bahamas
Where you can't catch us
Cause we got away

Have you traveled into the depths of the mind's fields?
They go on and on, and on and on and on.
We live in the white light of love and the green meadows and the peace fields with flowers.
And when you begin your travels, there is no way of knowing what you may find, what you may find.

Stargazer

|

Stargazer, there you are, hanging out, late at night
On your own, and ya know, the sailboat is anchored deep down.
Stargazer, free your mind, and rock away on gentle waves.
Starboard side of the bow, where you lay for now, from twilight's time up to the dawn's first light.
Oooh oooh oooh
I begin to dream inside my celestial shadow chandelier.
Kaleidoscopic atmosphere.
Van Gogh dances in his starry night. The moon calls to me,
"Take my hand and I'll give you my light."
Dream away, dream away, stargazer
Free your mind
Dream away, dream away, stargazer
Free your mind
Rock away, rock away, stargazer
Free your mind
Dream away, dream away, stargazer
Free your mind

When I rise before you
and you are still at rest
I lay in awe of your sunlit face
and the rhythm of your chest.
Good morning, my dear
Let's lay here for just a moment more.
Just a moment more.
Tell me all of your dreams
I saw you smiling in your sleep.
Cozy, warm laying here next to you
in our big bed.
Good morning, my dear
Let's lay here for just a moment more.

The Force of Grandeur
02:16

I feel the force of grandeur
It's nature taking over
and I want to hold it in my hands.
I think I'm slipping into
a memory I once knew
and it feels like a past life.
Hey hey hey!
Hah, yeah hah, yeah hah, yeah
yeah yeah yeah
Hah, yeah hah, yeah hah, yeah
yeah yeah yeah
My body is a landscape
of stories told in gold frames
and the truth resides within me
For many moons I've crumbled
under the pressure ten-fold
but the words, they all have freed me.
Hey hey hey!
Hah, yeah hah, yeah hah, yeah

On Your Side

I will be always on your side
I will be as strong as I can
I will have your back until the end
My beautiful friend
We are not fighting anyone
We are only fighting ourselves
After we have figured that out
There's no need to be alarmed
I will be always on your side
It's you and me until the end
We will have no time to be mad
We will only be best friends, yeah
Oooh, on your side
is where I wanna be.
Oooh, on your side on your side
is where I wanna be.
On your side is where I wanna be
I know I would never have it any other way
You and me, driven by the beat of our hearts
determined by our breathing
Calm yourself when you can't see eye to eye
with somebody that brings you down
they may need just a little hint of that loving spirit spirit
spirit inside you reaching all around
stretching out to everyone in every little town
just like the roots of the big tree
our heads are in the air and our feet are deep deep deep deep
down atoms go around sharing all of them like a
king with a consciousness so deep
he knows he could be the one to answer the hungry man's plea.
(yeah yeah yeah)

I went out to play one day when I was a little boy
I climbed up on a pile of rocks
then I climbed up on a tree
the branch broke and it brought me down
I slammed my head against a rock
And I saw an angel light all around me
I saw an angel light all around me
I saw
As I slowly got up from the ground
she said nothing and I couldn't speak
I wanted to talk but no words came out
we stayed together in silence
I couldn't look away I was mesmerized
by a sphere of bright white loving light
And I saw an angel light all around me
I saw an angel light all around me
I saw, I saw, an angel light all around me
I saw, I saw, an angel light all around me
I saw

I love, love, love, love the summertime
I find a piece of mind in the summertime
Will you, will you, will you, will you come with me my baby
I got ide, ide, ideas to share with
I know, I know, I know, I know you'll be perfect for me
'Cause you got those eyes
Every night you can find me outside
Sittin' on the rooftop watchin' all the fireflies
They glow bright little neon lights
I would like to shrink down to their size
And tell them how much joy they bring
To a midnight firefly watcher like me
I love the summertime
I love, love, love, love the summertime
I find a piece of mind in the summertime
Drivin', Drivin', Drivin', Drivin' to the beach
Where else on a day like this would you rather be?
We will write your worries in the sand
And wait for the tide to come in
And wash them, wash them away
I love the summertime
I love, love, love, love the summertime
I find a piece of mind in the summertime

The Great Divide

My darling, my Queen
I've been wondering how you are doing
So far away across the land
I would travel to you but I can't
So I'll say, "Ooo it's the great divide, Ooo of old, old time"
My night times my days
Are spent thinkin' about what will happen
When this ball of yarn unweaves
Oh back to where it all began
One single thread and then nothing
So I'll say, "Ooo it's the great divide, Ooo of old, old time"
Old, old time…
My darling, my Queen
I've been wondering how you are doing
You wanted to be free and now you are
And like a bird over the seas you'll travel far
And I'll be around, a ship nearby
If you get tired and don't wanna fly
And don't wanna fly

Yeah the freedom is mine
To sit still and alone
Check back in with my true home
