Everyone's got a story of someone in their lives That they couldn't have Tossing and turning in the night Knowing you shouldn't have Blue eyes in the distance, in the dark Sad like mine Turned away, but you know they're still there In the night Be true to the one you love He's out there looking for you Be true to the one you love He's out there waiting for you Down by the river, feeding ducks with the children We were smiling, but I wanted to cry One passing moment, my love standing in the water Of such a long river of time Years gone by, it's so cold in the mountains I warm my bones by the light of my dreams Be true to the one you love She's out there looking for you Be true to the one you love She's out there looking for you

The Meadow 03:17
All the flowers in the meadow, they watched you grow Walkin with your grandmother all those lonely years ago In the meadow of your time The beauty of your heart came from them all Each one gave you what you needed In the springtime of your fall In the meadow of your time Let's see what you're made of Let's see what you give them in return All the flowers in the meadow All the love that you let go All the love that passed you by Flowers you might never know In the meadow of your time

What do you see in the mirror? Hair still wet from the shower His smell still fresh on the bed And the ghost still hangin round From all the things you said Love takes no prisoners Love can be an executioner Don't let it go so easy He feels the same as you Don't let it go Just let him know That you love him too The phone rings and you don't answer Yeah, fate can be such a bitch And the miles pile up between you Cigarette between your lips Love takes no prisoners Love can be an executioner Don't let it go so easy He feels the same as you Don't let it go Just let him know That you love him too

What We Do 03:26
Some things are just too hot to touch You told me just as much But I'm not one to turn back now Years roll on We're doin what we do I've got my mind on you And I wonder if you still love me Snow fell between us on that hill Your eyes were winter blue And I can picture you there still You gave me smoke from your lungs Embers from your heart And you burned me good Do what we do In the smoke and ashes babe Do what we do I'll keep on burning for ya Do what we do I love you just the same Dog days beneath what we've become Back where we came from I never could have seen us now Picture frames line the narrow hall The writing on the wall Says lets grow old and win it all Do what we do I never signed on to let you down Do what we do I said I'd go all the way Do what we do I love you still

The Valley 03:52
I don't know why you wanna raise your voice I don't know why you're so angry with me I wanna love you through famine and war I wanna love you tonight We took a wrong turn in a desert town This road ain't doin us any good I wanna love you when the sun goes down I wanna love you like I said I would And I would They said you and me were outlaws in love They said we'd never make it to the edge of town I never listened to them anyway I only listen to your heart, your heart If the fever burns us up alive I'll meet you in the valley where you said I do I never wanted to be anywhere else I only wanted to be there with you

Come 04:25
In the dim lit room of a honky tonk The mornin after the fire I waited for you Maybe all my life And here I am, waiting for you still When you come We'll dance on the old wooden floor There's not enough time For this much road So we better get to it dear Climb in with me Let's see what we find Let's make everything behind us disappear When you come We'll make everything behind us disappear

Moon Landing 05:23
Standing in the dark alone Head full of clouds But there ain't no clouds in sight She came out of nowhere Said boy what are ya doin here? Can it be you and me and the moon tonight? You and me and the moon tonight I laid down on the edge of time Head all full of Venus Underneath the starry sky She laid her hand on my chest Said you look like you could use some rest Can it be you and me and the moon tonight? You and me and the moon tonight Tonight It's just you and me and the moon tonight
9.
At the edge of the new world Where the sand meets the sea She waded into his deep water And he was waiting there Underneath Underneath the waves Breathing All the riches of the new world All the colors of the reef He reached out to take her And they swam into the deep Underneath Underneath the waves Breathing

Don't Say No 03:15
I'm gonna get to you One of these days I'm gonna make it home to you I'm gonna sit with you At the end of the bar I'm gonna lay my head on you Don't say no, baby Ah don't say no Say what you said When we were just kids Say it sweetly again The curtains blow gently In my memory I wanna hear those words again Don't say no, baby Ah don't say no
11.
Honeysuckle 04:22
I wanna take you down with me To the valley I wanna see your eyes When they lay across the land If I could, I'd make you mine for good And forever Honey let's see what you and me Could do together So come and let me hold you again I know where there's water Way out in the desert And I know where a river Cuts through emptiness If I could, I'd make you mine for good And forever Honey let's see what you and me Could do together So come and let me show you The river The years have been alright To you and me You're as pretty as a flower On honeysuckle vine If I could, I'd make you mine for good And forever Honey let's see what you and me Could do together So come and let me hold you again

June 03:53
Down by the river Feet in the water I saw you smile In your reflection Maybe I'm right Maybe you're right We didn't come here To talk about the weather June, I'm still dreaming Of what we can do In June Fireflies light up the shoreline In June I kissed the mezcal from your lips We stood at the edge Hangin over the rails One firefly is a lonely night Two fireflies is a lifetime June, I'm still dreaming Of what we can do
