Rock Me Gently

in the beauty of the night
I search for your face in the fire light
I wanna show you so many things
see the sparks fly in the summer wind
you're in my dreams wherever i go
won't you show me what you know?
meet again and it's just the same
sitting with you in the summer rain
rock me so gently
but can you take it if i give you my tears?
in the shadows of the night, hold me
hold me through the fear
lullaby sing me straight to the soul
sleeping with you in the time we stole
wonder if I'm willing, will I take the chance?
I don't know but I love the dance
soft feathers, touching skin
feel the rich glow of a queen within
childhood flies on colored wings
forgotten dreams and other things
hey, hey
pull the thread through and color my eyes
down in the dark where the dragons fly
burst of bliss now pace the wine
we'll be laughing so loud
like our love entwined
rock me so gently
but can you take it if i give you my tears?
in the shadows of the night,
hold me, hold me
hold me, hold me
hold me, hold me
through the fear

Ease My Worried Mind

I want whiskey, I want gin
lord knows the kind of shape I'm in
brother help me, could you spare a dime?
I need something just to ease my worried mind
could be wrong, could be right
I don't mean to cause a fight
brother help me, I'm in quite a bind
I need something just to ease my worried mind
can't get no satisfaction in anything i do
this kind of mind distraction is making me feel blue
always caught in reaction, loosing my cool
if you're not careful friend, it could happen to you
could be rich, could be poor
still I'd feel like just like before
I can't help it, happens all the time
I need something just to ease my worried mind
*solo*
can't get no satisfaction in anything i do

I can't help it, happens all the time
I need something just to ease my worried mind
I need something just to ease my worried mind
I said I need something just to ease my worried mind

Will You Be My Baby

will you be my baby?
will you be my sugar diamond doll?
throw your arms around me?
catch me if i fall?
cause I've been so lonely
I can barely make it through the night
won't you kiss me?
hold me, squeeze me it's alright
just looking for love
but I don't know
if I'm looking in the right places
you know I got it in my heart
and I want it, right here and
now I see my baby
now I see you walking along inside
yeah, we're so close
and I feel there's nothing to hide

Everything
05:07
|

|
spinning so fast
like a whirling dervish
she spins around town
flash of color from the feathers in her hair
and her sequin jumpsuit
she doesn't care if you don't like her style
she'll run circles around you
and think it's just a game
can we play again tomorrow in the rain?
where are you goin?
what are you running from?
you've been running all night
now you're running in the noon day sun
can you hear my soft voice
call your name?
cause everything has changed
and everything stays the same
she's a shooting star
and a butterfly
and a little monster
she'll make you high as a kite
she lives among the asteroids
and the sea creatures
she'll never play by your rules
she'll run circles around you
and think it's just a game
can we play again tomorrow in the rain?
where are you goin?
what are you running from?
you've been running all night
now you're running in the noon day sun
can you hear my soft voice
call your name?
cause everything has changed
and everything stays the same
o-oh how things change
o-oh how things change
you go round that bend again
stuck in the storm again
you go round that bend again
feel the sunrise again
you go round that bend again
stuck in the storm again
you go round that bend again
feel the sunrise again
everything has changed and
everything stays the same
see the way she dances on
as if nothing happened
she never wants to talk about it
what's been coming
just keeps on coming
like it's never ending
watch history repeat itself
she'll run circles around you
and think it's just a game
can we play again tomorrow in the rain?
where are you goin?
what are you running from?
you've been running all night
now you're running in the noon day sun
can you hear my soft voice
call your name?
cause everything has changed
and everything stays the same
everything has changed
and everything stays the same
everything has changed
and everything stays the same

Clearin' Out the Ashes
02:57
|

|
don't know what it is now
don't need it anymore
feelin' like a big ol' mess
standin at your front door
what I just have to understand
where the feelings go
know what I gotta do now
but I'm here alone
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm striking out the matches
watch the flames go higher
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm taking my chances
walking on the wire
everywhere I go now
confusion follows me
only thing I know now
is I got to be free
gotta have understanding
when you leave a woman's bed
already ending
what is done in my head
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm striking out the matches
watch the flames go higher
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm taking my chances
walking on the wire
*bridge*
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm striking out the matches
watch the flames go higher
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm taking my chances
walking on the wire
I'm clearing out the ashes
I'll start another fire
I'm taking my chances
walking on the wire

Slow Right Down
04:53
|

|
too fast too deep if you want a chance
gotta slow right down and change gear
if you don't then I will disappear
I think you know how much it's all for show
gotta slow right down
she don't wanna end up in the ground
She goes where the waves will carry her
and windy thoughts can blow
she's singing a song alright that only she could know
I had so many questions
that I let slip through the cracks
she's gone now and she a'int coming back
what I wouldn't dare admit to you
follows me wherever I go
and it finds me when I'm moving slow
memories are catching on the breeze
still I find I can't speak the truth
opening's too hard a thing to do
She goes where the waves will carry her
and windy thoughts can blow
she's singing a song alright that only she could know
I had so many questions
that I let slip through the cracks
she's gone now and she a'int coming back
letting go's no easy thing to do
you gotta slow right down
compromise will see you in the ground
keep a brave face, never let a soul
see what's hiding deep down below
if you could help her, would you let her go?
She goes where the waves will carry her
and windy thoughts can blow
she's singing a song alright that only she could know
I had so many questions
that I let slip through the cracks
she's gone now and she a'int coming back
