Indigo Sky 05:30
When I first saw you, I was a child The sky was an ocean of secrets, sparkling wild in your eyes I was amazed, too naive to be terrified Indigo sky reminds me of your quiet shine When I first heard your voice, I was a man The pattering of raindrops, the clatter of a garbage can So beautiful Phenomenal cathedral of skin and bones Heart beating strong, it pulses out your secret song February's dream, colour and caffeine Tumble down I tumble down the border this imaginary line Which demarcates the place where I've allowed myself to shine Wake up, my love When I first felt your touch, I was a cannon blast, a shattering of doves Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah Dare to take a leap, don't you fear defeat Tumble down I tumble down the border, this imaginary line Which demarcates the place where I've allowed myself to shine Wake up, my love Rivers run on Smile wide-eyed Take heart, take flight Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah When I first knew that you were mine, I was an empty sky, an undivided line Wake up, my love Rivers run on Smile wide-eyed Take heart, take flight Wake up, my love Rivers run on Smile wide-eyed Take heart Take heart

Darkness of a cupboard, I am hiding from my mother Creaking wooden smell of cedar I won't be discovered 'til the dawn Letters under cover, I am warm and tightly shuttered A buttered dagger cutting through the blue as life flutters by in song Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Color me another scene of gasoline and ice cream Trouble shout another route A muzzle-loader powder keg cloud Dreams of dew and daisies true and crazy views and hazy hues A muse amused by humor's roots Amazed and raised to skewer truth's abuse How, in the white night, I'd shudder to hear a voice softly uttered From the satin-tinged end of the telephone On my own Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Rolling along and along and along and along Color me another scene of gasoline and ice cream Trouble shout another route A muzzle-loader powder keg cloud Darkness of a cupboard, I am hiding from my mother Creaking wooden smell of cedar I won't be discovered 'til the dawn

Marie 03:32
Make me a flute, a fleece, a sycamore tree Make me a nightingale for thee My love, for thee Make me a sail, the sea, a sweet memory Your gaze of love re-members me My love, Marie My love, Marie Make me a bridge, a bee, a zephyr sweet Make me a blanket for your feet My love, Marie My love, Marie Love, oh Love, your Love It has no end Make me a rope, a rune, the call of the loon Make me to gaze at the autumn moon You and me, Marie My sweet Marie

Song of You 04:18
Tell me, darling, don't you see That your heart sings the song of me My heart sees you strong and true My heart sings the song of you I hear your song all day long I love it, it's my favorite song So say you'll stay with me and true My heart sings the song of you Your heart sings my song aloud With me you shine so bright and proud And so together we must be Your heart sings the song of me Come with me and we'll advance And revel in this holy dance At every chance, I would dare to steal a glance and see My heart singing the song of you singing the song of me At every chance, I would dare to steal a glance and see My heart singing the song of you singing the song of me

Trying to get closer to the truth Why am I getting open with you You turn me red like the sunset sky Listen to the quiet in my life Whisper under fire from the strife I make you blue like the clouds that hold the moon Clouds pass, tumbling and changing We are tumbling and changing We are hanging on until we're gone Finding I can breathe it open wide Making space to hold it all inside I'm waiting naked like the sky beholds the dawn Shimmer, shiver, whisper, morning dew Dream I step into the stream of you We burn together like the stars that kiss the night Clouds pass, tumbling and changing We are tumbling and changing We are hanging on until we're gone We are tumbling and changing We are tumbling and changing We are hanging on
