Two by Two 03:46
You and I are rolling out sidewalks over the beautiful flowers You and I are trampling on pinecones lower than level with the fulcrum Where we gonna go when the water rises Where we gonna go? Oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh You and I pretend to know better As we hold on to our old ways Falderal, decay... and we joke about it Poor soldiers blindly advancing Where we gonna go when the water rises Where we gonna go? Oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh Do you foresee leaving on spaceships? Two by two we're leaving on spaceships Where we gonna go when the water rises Where we gonna go? Oh oh
2.
Staying up all night just to get it done We can catch our breath in a sprinted run Shaking hands at dawn with the morning sun We're holding out, we're holding out, we're holding out strong It's late at night Do you wanna stay up And play it right You and I could make it up I would never doubt your love But tell me, is mine enough To get you through the night Feeling all your waves like a radio Filling up my head with your indigo Falling slowly into the afterglow We're holding on, we're holding on, we're holding on strong It's late at night Do you wanna stay up And play it right You and I could make it up I would never doubt your love But tell me, is mine enough To get you through the night It's late at night Do you wanna stay up And play it right You and I could make it up It's late at night My dear I know We're almost there
3.
Ooooooh
4.
Foundation is all We can offer to you When you build your home Build it with stone Born afire, alive With the seed of time Dawn of man, extend your hand Out beyond the sun I walked on water But in time They started killing in my name Don't call me "Father" In the end You'll see that you and I are the same Twisted words can rot Your tree of wisdom Only those who search Will know their soul I walked on water But in time They started killing in my name Don't call me "Father" In the end You'll see that you and I are the same You and I are the same
5.
I won't let my happiness depend on money No you can't buy me happiness with money Oh you keep getting up in the morning just to grind your teeth for money I wonder what it's worth, all that money Oh I feel something deep down Telling me there's gotta be a better way to make this world go round Oh, money
6.
Come and break bread with me We'll sit right under this tree Do do do do do do do do do Picnic in the morning Picnic in the evening I could picnic every day I could picnic every way With you Blanket's spread and the eats are fine Things are good yeah, and we've got wine Do do do do do do do do do Picnic in the morning Picnic in the evening I could picnic every day I could picnic every way With you Do do do do do do do do do
7.
When I'm looking out Darkness, true as love is All of life lives now And I hardly notice I go off to work so I get my Tiny paycheck in the mailbox Mystery surrounds Every step that I've taken When I think of all the kin it took To get where I'm going How far back do we have to go to consider our Relatives to be relative to us? Can there truly be space in my head? To sit for hours alone, uninterrupted Well, how long does it take to truly become awake?
8.
Did you find what you're looking for? Or did you come back looking for more? You can turn the light out You can turn the light out
9.
Stay Happy 03:37
Was that the real thing? What are your heartaches? I want to remedy you Pick up the spoonful Toss out the rain guard There's no more hiding from it Are you gonna come home? Or are you gonna stay out there in LA? What's it, my brother? I don't mind either way Just as long as you stay... I don't mind either way Just as long as you stay happy Oooo Oooo Oooo Oooo I don't mind either way Just as long as you stay happy Oooo Oooo Oooo Oooo I don't mind either way Just as long as you stay happy Oooo Oooo Oooo Oooo
10.
I heard there was a gathering and everyone would be there I heard there was a following a presence hiding in the air I heard there was a gathering Oh we've got so much to say So grab your hat put on your boots come to the show Don't you know We're gonna bring it back around Everything starts small and then it grows Just like every great idea Thinks it's got no place to go And then it grows So grab your hat put on your boots come to the show Don't you know If you've got no other place to be Maybe you could come and see All our friends All our friends Hang up your hat Take off your boots Untie yourself come on get loose With all our friends All our friends Oooooooh Now this big city is our home As long as we've got each other It doesn't matter where we roam Everywhere is our home So grab your hats Put on your boots Come to the show Don't you know If you've got no other place to be Maybe you could come and see All our friends All our friends Hang up your hat Take off your boots Untie yourself come on get loose With all our friends All our friends Oooooooh
11.
Gone gone gone brother Far beyond the shore line Sink down deep into water Breathe in all you can take with time It doesn't matter Yeah yeah yeah yeah It doesn't matter Ooo Ooo It doesn't matter Yeah yeah yeah yeah It doesn't matter Ooo Ooo We're balanced right On a tightrope in mid air Our hearts are open And our colors glow out We spin around blurring lines That we thought were there Turns out they're not and We're all just making it up It doesn't matter Yeah yeah yeah yeah It doesn't matter Ooo Ooo It doesn't matter Yeah yeah yeah yeah It doesn't matter Ooo Ooo

These Days 01:45
Sit down and relax You've been working hard On your feet There's a weight on your back Relax Sit down rest your eyes Let the day slip away And empty out your weary mind Unwind It's hard to find peace these days In a city that always stays awake Pulled away from sleep I'm living in a dream These days

Skydiving 03:45

Home 03:19
I grew up in a world surrounded by peace I was so lucky My soul would dance like the wind in the trees It was so lovely And I sure do miss those forrest sounds The birds chirping in the summer And I hardly know Yeah I hardly know Well, I hardly know When I will be coming back Home Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Home Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Home Thank God for my girl Well she gets me through All the bull in the city Someday I'll take her back home with me We'll eat the fruit in the garden And I hardly know Yeah I hardly know Well, I hardly know When I will be coming back Home Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Home Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Where my heart lies Home (I hardly know) When I will be Coming back
22.
I'm having fun It's the summer And I drive around With the windows rolled down So I catch the breeze Like I'm out at sea Occasionally I will sleep in And have a dream I believe in But I will wake up And laugh at what I've done And I could watch (And I could watch) The sky all evening long (The sky all evening long) It's a fine (It's a fine) Way to spend your time (Way to spend your time) Life will go by like a freight train Haulin' a line across the country You gotta stay awake To see the landscapes All of my friends Are so lovely They really know How to love me We're close like family And I wouldn't wanna be Anywhere else With anyone else Anywhere else No I wouldn't wanna be I wouldn't wanna be And I could watch (And I could watch) The sky all evening long (The sky all evening long) It's a fine (It's a fine) Way to spend your time (Way to spend your time) Yeah I could watch (Yeah I could watch) The sky all evening long (The sky all evening long) It's a fine (It's a fine) Way to spend your time (Way to spend your time)
23.
Will you wait for all your thoughts to catch up While you are drifting away? I'd rather be as cool as a pebble With water flowing over me I'm telling you that everything we do Ripples out through time I'm telling you that everything we do Ripples out through time Will you behold the kingdom foretold? The seed exists in your soul The wise old owl lives high in the oak The more he saw the less he spoke I'm telling you that everything we do Ripples out through time I'm telling you that everything we do Ripples out through time
24.
Are you coming back To take my hand? Are you coming back To be my man? I've been thinking about you love And I just can't get enough Well you sink me down And I could drown But I just can't get enough I hung my heart out to dry Last night Everywhere I go I find I'm out of time I've been away Been away Been away For a long long time
25.
