Old paint, flaking off my bedside table reminds me of you it's stained and scuffed up in places bright shiny varnish covers deeper blues I go to bed waiting for something to change I wake to find that it still remains The same old song plays on a worn out radio The static clears, it brings me to tears I waltz, soft and slow Alone Slow burn, it smolders inside me, like the dawn wheels turn the thoughts tumble blindly, then they're gone I go to bed waiting for something to change I wake to find that it still remains The same old song plays on a worn out radio The static clears, it brings me to tears I waltz, soft and slow Alone

When I needed to cry, you wiped the tear from my eye Sent from above When I started to fall, left with nothing at all Thinking of Fly over love High over love Sky’s not enough Fly over love High up above Fly over love You that I’ve been dreaming of When I needed a hand, helped me understand I’m not alone When I’m locked in the dark, lit a spark Brought me home Fly over love High over love Sky’s not enough Fly over love High up above Fly over love You that I’ve been dreaming of Never know when the world stops spinning Bet it all on the good guys winning Never know when it’s time to hang it up

Love Is A Garden Through all the years together There may be moments You think you might not make it through Though there may be times you might have parted Have the faith to wait and see What could grow from that last dying vine With tenderness and a few drops of kindness The love it grows stronger And you finally see - what it could really be Love is a garden That you give the care and tend every day What starts from the seed is fragile Don’t let it go away It can start with a wildflower That catches your eye And you see what the harvest could be The garden gets way too big For only one to tend You gotta know when to give, when to bend The sun will shine and the shade will come and go You give the warmth when it’s cold That’s what it takes to make it grow Love is a garden That you give the care and tend every day What starts from the seed is fragile If the root is strong it’ll never go away ???????? They say the greatest story ever told Well it started in a garden And the garden continues to grow The snakes and thorns and the poison in the apple And the pain to make another Well we’re still here today--- Love is a garden That you give the care and tend every day What starts from the seed is fragile If the root is strong it’ll never go away Love is a garden That you give the care and tend every day Just try a little harder Pull the weeds that grow so the garden can breathe Have the strength to just be kind to one another You know it’s hard but don’t give up so easily Love is a garden Don’t let it go away

Well I met a man on boundary row
 with dust caked on his tongue
 and the bone and sinew ground to 
ash and marrow 
and they gave him hero’s ribbons and
 the homecome least he sought And they sang the songs of grace of vesper sparrows She met a weary widow with his ghosts 
arrayed like wares 
on his prayer rug to be sold to the highest bidder She asked him when he’d fold At the point of last confusion Never crossed his clouded mind
 to consider If the dark fails the light I’ll send you flares to find me And if there’s nowhere to fall we’ll stand and face the storm And as the last stars of night
 give way to dawn’s redemption We’ll ride it out What else can we do but ride it out She says “I’ve given up the luxury Of fortune-telling dreams We can only see the shadows
 til we’re blinded and you can pin the tag of hero’s curse
 on the ever-fading badge 
In the space between despair
 and bloody-minded And in my mind I’ll always be 
a thousand miles away But in my heart I’m standing as your neighbor And if I could control the winds
 command the tides to pull me
 what kind of man would shy from such a labor? If the dark fails the light I’ll send you flares to find me And if there’s nowhere to fall we’ll stand and face the storm And as the last stars of night
 give way to dawn’s redemption We’ll ride it out What else can we do but ride it out I’d ask you now to sing no more
 the songs of grace and mercy 
or shine your torch upon 
the fields left fallow 
for I can only battle with the 
weapons I’ve been given 
 what choice have I been granted 
in this hour? If the dark fails the light I’ll send you flares to find me And if there’s nowhere to fall we’ll stand and face the storm And as the last stars of night
 give way to dawn’s redemption We’ll ride it out What else can we do but ride it out

Sometimes it doesn’t come Sometimes I’m at a loss Sometimes it’s only rain Sometimes can’t get across Blood rushes to my brain Million miles in a flash Eyes darken, I can’t breathe Tongue tied twist in a crash Sometimes there’s nothing there Sometimes the well is dry Sometimes it’s all uphill Sometimes it just won’t fly Mind racing seeing red Errant thoughts on attack Trying to catch my breath Feel there’s no coming back Coming up blank

Nothing here but memories Time has only left the weeds Foundation’s crumbled like a prayer Buckled under weight of despair Roads are long even when their clean Dirt still flows to the nearby streams Wearing thin in slow descent Even where the straights are bent Wasted time with a troubled mind And nowhere to go Exactly where you’ve spent these years Static in the show Fading ideologies time eats away those dreams Pull the wool just past the eyes In the dark, can’t see the light Everyone’s to blame and still no shame With nowhere to go Headed down another round of Static in the show Hit the ground running like a bullet from a gun Ghosts disappear in the rearview but still follow you home Try to push them down with the bottom of the bottle Face off’s off the table And maybe tomorrow Wasted time with a troubled mind And nowhere to go Everyone’s to blame and still no shame Static in the show
