Beautiful Business
You ask me to do a job for a green massage
I'm happy to do it for you cause the trade is good
I'm taking it to the bank gonna turn it to food
and whatever I think i may need to do what I do
One check, now I'm your dedicated friend
Two checks have come - guess you must trust me back
Three checks have come - now the balance is paid
i wonder is there more to this exchange?
Maybe it's the Moment,
thats' the transaction here
Maybe it's the Moment...
Meet me in the moment
thats' the transaction here
Meet me in the moment
Cause I am never lonely when my eyes meet someone's
and I am never lonely when my heart is open
I'm finding the sweetest deals almost everywhere
I get jokes on the bus and advice from the store cashier
the waitress is shy
the client is crying
and i can be kind
this business is mine
Maybe it's the Moment,
thats' the transaction
Maybe it's the Moment...
Meet me in the moment
thats' the transaction
Meet me in the moment
Cause I am never lonely when my eyes meet someone's
and I am never lonely when my heart is open
I am never lonely
Move
Could I sit
in front of my tv with the volume turned off so I can hear my head
I'm kinda scared of all the silence and my heart might start to pipe up to tell me again
What I am, and all the rules are gone
my voice is flat
but somewhere there's a song to let me win
i have a lot of love and light inside and it is gonna find me
I can't tell my ego from my instinct
it's fighting with me everyday I've gotta get away
I can't tell my ego from my instinct
it's fighting with me everyday I've gotta get away
or put it in it's place
think I will, i'll lock it in a box and put it in a corner with some dusty things
then I'll need to keep my ear upon the door so I can listen to what's best for me
here i am, and all the clutter's gone, it's packed away, and I am not alone
the rules have changes, i have a lot of love and light inside and it is gonna find me
I can't tell my ego from my instinct
it's fighting with me everyday I've gotta get away
I can't tell my ego from my instinct
it's fighting with me everyday I've gotta get away
or teach it how to play
open up your window
breathe a bit of you
wire is all around you
but you still can move
move
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
open up your window
breathe a bit of you
wire is all around you
but you still can move
move
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
I know you can
Dreams Like Food and Water
wild wind, devil in my hair
tease me, just so i'm aware
i can hear the call
maybe it is real after all
my dreams have a color
and it's seeping into my hungry thoughts like
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
open the window and clear out the shadows
the sun muscles in like a big yellow lion
and shows me the dew outside sparkling like diamonds
that beckon to follow and
play like a child
play like a child
i can hear the call
maybe it is real after all
my dreams have a color
and it's feeding into my days and nights like
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
ancient history in my blood
warms me, i am drawn into the flood
i can hear the call
maybe it is real after all
my dreams have a color
and it's bleeding into my ripening heart like
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
food, yes, yes, yes,
like- water
ocean
i sat still in the ocean
I watched water surround me
I sank down to the bottom
I forgot how to breath
I was all alone in darkness
things were sharp and scraped at me
I forgot about the surface
till something came and pulled on me
like the sun
here are warm waves again
here are warm waves again
must be in
here are warm waves again
here are warm waves again
must be in
your current
must be in
your current
Up and down now i wander
sometimes i travel far
spots of sun touch the water
sometimes storms drag me down.
Now I’m not so lost when I slip down
to where the shadows crawl
I can feel my way up back to close
where the current pulls me from
like the sun
here are warm waves again
here are warm waves again
must be in
here are warm waves again
here are warm waves again
must be in
your current
must be in
your current
kindest hands
Take this away,
loosen this pain - here
Wish I could say,
I'm not the same
as when I learned to feel this way
But old scars ache on cloudy days
though I'm healed
by the kindest hands
and the more I stay
the less I break
All this debris
I carry with me
has no place in our
safe clean home
we planted a garden
we sun and water it
and only good things grow
but I'm still afraid of winter
and I'm still afraid of the cold
if it sounds like there might be thunder
I may stand
by the door
Cause old scars ache on cloudy days
though I'm healed
by the kindest hands
and the more I stay
the less I break
and ya save me
you save me
you save me
you save me
Old scars ache on cloudy days
though I'm healed
by the kindest hands
and the more I stay
the less I break
blue
Blue, I won’t be home again,
It’s time to bid adieu,
i know that we were special friends but,
i have found another love,
who fits me like a glove
together we tap such a happy rhythm
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
so aligned with you
low low low low low low low
low low low low low low low
Blue, we spent so many nights,
together with the stars,
and lonley eyes, and, empty sighs
I will keep a piece of you, forever in my heart,
and send you silent sunshine from afar
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
so aligned with you
You can go the furthest corners
You can visit when you’re invited
or I may meet you by chance
like old friend who’s true
who I cherish as comfort from the past
comfort from the past
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
i i i i i i i was
so aligned with you
oh blue
unmeasured
If I never saw your face again,
I'd be all-right, because of you
And I am in a morning of my life,
and you are left in yesterday, and that's ok
cause you gave me, unmeasured, love
and you gave me, enough love, to last a life- time
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the doors, searching for the doors,
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the doors, searching for the doors,
meanwhile light just pours in
I was in the shade
i was very cold and small
still I grew, still I grew
Now I think I believe
these people that I meet in tall and tiny lengths of time
are people that I need
cause I have seen, unmeasured, love
and I have seen, enough love,
to last a life- time
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the door, searching for the door,
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the door, searching for the door,
meanwhile light just pours in
and you I know, and you I know, forever
and you I know, and you I know, and you I know
If I never see your face again,
I'll be all-right, because of you
And you'll be in a morning of your life, and I'll be left in yesterday
and that's ok
cause i give you,
unmeasured, love
and you give me
enough love, to last a life- time
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the door, searching for the door,
back and forth we go
through broken walls and windows
searching for the door, searching for the door,
meanwhile light just pours in
moments of the sun
Blue and black of night - Sips and swallows me
and links me to the Wind - Ribboning 'round the Trees
Maybe I am here - Only just to see
How this mighty Land - Wraps itself 'round me
- ooh
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of sound
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of
sound
Puddles growing deep - Fill them up with seed
Water them with tears - and let it garden me
Maybe I don't mind - being something like a worm
stuck here twenty years - with only moments of the sun
so many moments of the sun - I'm filled with moments of the sun
- ooh
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of sound
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of sound
I can hear, there's nothing to fear
I can hear, I'm home
I've heard that these trees - Root themselves quite deep
under neath these paths - that twist and carry me
Maybe I don't mind - always moving on
the place where I now stand - is always brighter than where I can here from
- ooh
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of sound
When I got my ear to the ground without my head full of sound
I can hear, there's nothing to fear
moondust
Moments fly
When I'm just a bit of Moondust
sitting on the surface of a rind
of the biggest rock
that I've ever touched
where I'll reside for a limited time
Time, forgets my woes, forgets my name
One day I may not remember anything
but what I touched when I was really here
Little Tree, boy you're gonna grow up
stretching out your branches to the sky
Watch that Wind,
Man it blows like hell
You better keep your roots down dug real deep,
Careful what you take too seriously because
Time, forgets our woes, forgets our names
One day we may not remember anything
but what we really touched when we were here
Paper on Paper, I'm made up of files
and my ink's getting light,
but I'm not going dry
I've been trying to keep every piece of the pile but
I'm not sure I'd leave any knowledge behind,
I'd be lucky to leave just a whisper awhile...
it's all in a days work for the universe
and from what I hear it don't care what it is
it's all in a days work for the universe
and on rare days i see i'm just a blip
Time, forgets my woes, forgets my name
One day I may not remember anything
but what I really touched when I was here
shameful
Could I buy a pretty house?
Could I paint a picture on the kitchen wall?
Could I write a book about my life?
Could I make anyone want to read it?
Or could I just open up my eyes?
Would I see the rain or would I see the rainbow?
I don't really know so I'll have to try.
I'm gonna take off my blue shaded glasses.
I'm not gonna be a shameful person
I'm gonna live out the life the way I wanted
I'm gonna take my hardships and be proud of what I learned
and I'm not gonna be a shameful person
Could I take a bath when I'm feeling sad?
Or could I write a love letter and not need one back?
Could I ever take peace and quiet for granted?
And could I ever not need a loud adventure?
I hope I never not need a loud adventure.
I'm not gonna be a shameful person
I'm gonna live out the life the way I wanted
I'm gonna take my hardships and be proud of what I learned
and I'm not gonna be a shameful person
And if you broke their heart then they're free to hate you
and if they let you down...you know, you're free to leave them
but if you've got any hankering to stick around
then just do it
you're old enough to know
just do it
you're old enough to know
just do it
you're old enough to know
you could learn something
I'm not gonna be a shameful person
I'm gonna live out the life the way I wanted.
I'm gonna take my hardships and be proud of what I learned,
and I'm not gonna be a shameful person
ignite
before I've even finished all my coffee
I sit alone with myself in a room
the rain is all around me tapping on the wall
it's kinda like it wants to hear a song i sing with my soul
i think i'm in love
i think i'm in love
i think the summer must be coming to a close
the crickets have arrived outside my window
a sweet and bouncy song is what they make
maybe they'd want to come a be a bass guitar
for the song i sing with my soul
i think i'm in love
i think i'm in love
oh my soul ignites my love
oh my soul ignites my love
oh my soul ignites my love
oh my soul ignites my love
here and now
here and now
here and now
here and now
the winter will come in and bring a colder day
'i don't think i will freeze if you are here with me
you keep me warm fed and let me bloom
you even let me flower
as the the song i sing
with soul
i think i'm in love
i think i'm in love
