Alone
(Healy)
She finishes her glass of wine
and it falls down to the floor
Broken glass reflects the tears
Of loneliness and nothing more
No she isn't very proud
of what it is she has become
and her futures filled with rain clouds
She lost her vision of the chance that was
the chance that was
There's a reason why she walks alone in the sand
There's a reason why alone she has to stand
Picture she once painted
yes it hangs there on the wall
alone now with the darkness
she's got an empty heart turned to stone
turned to stone
Pain she seems to carry
On her flagship of distress
Times make her weaker
Her downfall's a running bet...

And She Cried
(Healy/Lloyd)
Somebody told me a long time ago
Say son don’t leave your feet out
in the cold driving snow
Don’t let them tell you son, that you’re a fool
Just cause you didn’t learn it all in school
Somebody told me yesterday
Don’t let your dreams fade away
Don’t let them tell you son, that you’re a fool
Just Cause you didn’t learn it all in school
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again
One man stands behind a fence
Another man stands behind a tree
One man sits behind a golden desk
pushing his thoughts over on me
Singin' mother don’t you cry
Don’t you cry on this golden night
If you may or if you might
Somebody’s gonna cry tonight
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again
Oh and she cried all night long
Make it or make it wrong
Somebody wants to fly tonight
Somebody’s gonna cry tonight
One man’s mother standing at the altar
One man’s brother drinking down his holy water
Singin' mother don’t you cry
Don’t you cry on this golden night
Somebody’s gonna cry tonight
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again
I’m walkin'
Down that long road again

Better Tomorrow
(Horrocks)
Got to try and find a way to live without me
Sure as I can see
Can't you feel the burning all around me
With every breath we breathe
Better tomorrow, 'cause I'm going home
Others can follow, but I'm still alone
I can feel your arms around me
Take me where I want to be
Down the path less traveled
Will bring you home to me
Better tomorrow, 'cause I'm going home
Others can follow, but I'm still alone
All we hoped has been shattered
by your actions today
And we'll never be the same again
All we live for has been cluttered
by distractions today
And I look to make it whole again

Blue Moon
(Healy/Lloyd)
Stealing my feet
Her perfume is dictating quite a splendor
Believe me when I say
The wicked will see holding me under
Halloween widespread panic fill that room
Breathing for me not a breath to soon
The bell tower was ringing now with laughter
Midnight hour once in this blue moon
Take what you need
Leave what you don't
There's plenty ahead
Xmas day/New Years Eve
April fool's
Halloween
Widespread panic filled that room
Breathing for me
Not a breath to soon

Burning By
(Bonaccorsi/Healy/Horrocks)
Memories of a moving picture show in my head
show my life burning by
I can't get free from the smoke all around
I guess that's how life will just burn on by
Frustration can cause you to stare at the folks
that you call your friends
Loneliness and stress will tie you up so Goddamn tight
Keep you down and bitter till the end
Failed love clings to loyalty and trust
Barely stands an aging fence full of holes full of rust
Meditation follows fire into water
Smoke comes alive
Snaking its way up through the icy water
Strike a match sit back your mind begins to wander
Take this ticket its a free ride
Crossing at a street light
I can feel the heat from a headlight
Burning my skin I'm afraid to turn around
Red shiny nose, red leather toes
of a clown that's been following me around

C Minor Contribution
(Healy/R. Bonaccorsi)
Alone I stand here waiting for a contribution
Not to steal my flow from me
Bubbles up from all these struggles
Threads stands between you and me
Stole this melody from inside my head
Bleeds with a yearning
To find this perfect time and setting
As the sun turns a blood thirsty red
There's no time for apologies
stern looks of regret
Someone said that time
was holding on to you and me
These cards my hand a losing bet
Before escaping my responsibility
That lay at the foot of my bed
Everyday to remind me
Times lost things I've said

California
(Healy/Horrocks)
California sunset in my mind
Fade into the deep blue sea
Come my friends and share and drink my wine
Let us linger on the vine
Smell the perfume in your hair
As I see you sleeping there
Watch as angels take their flight
Vanish in the darkest night
Sister, let me be
Mother Mary comfort me
Sister, let me be
Someone's watchin' over me
Cold dark distant memory
Take me where I want to be
Water washin' over sand
Scatter from my open hand
Sister, let me be
Mother Mary comfort me
Sister, let me be
Someone's watchin' over me
Sister, brother
Dancin' fools must played a hands
Smokin' in the summer grass
Stolen moments, not for sale
Who will live this fairy tale?

Come on Back
(R. Bonaccorsi)
The yearn for your touch don't seem like so much
Ain't none of them feel like you yet
How can the heart stand betrayal and loss
Compete with the hands, the lips, the lust
and then the cost
The yearn for your scent, sweet sweat lament
Ain't none of them taste like you yet
Still face the pain through angry denial
What's happened is named got to reconcile
Come on back, please come home
Can't make it last being here all alone
Come on back, don't wait too long
Can't stand the silence, can't believe that you're gone
The yearn for your face makes my heart race
Ain't none of them look like you yet
Everything has changed walk the mile
Understand these shoes time to reconcile
The sound of your voice if I still had the choice
I would've listened to what was said
You'd still be here right now
Living life, loving and learning how

Crossing
(Lloyd)
Find me an ocean
Lazy morning surprise
Take me to heaven
On the coattails of rhyme
Capture a freedom
The kind that's not bought or sold
Sing with the angels
Honey trip rivers of gold
Through canyons my mind unfolds
Lay me down easy
over the phone
Banks of the river
I'm finally home
Won't you lead me to the crossing
Wake me from slumber
My eyes they long to see
Cascading water
From cold eternal streams
Set my soul spirit free
Lay me down easy
over the phone
Banks of the river
Finally home
Won't you lead me to the crossing
Cut this heart open
Pour out all to my name
We are the love
It's all I have left to give
Nothing more left to gain

Deep in the Flow
(Healy/Lloyd/Horrocks)
Petal prancer marches to her own drum
Other people run their race just to hear the gun
Slow down there's always time to walk
Burning bridges shouldn't be so out of the way
Before the rain is done
Shown colors die young
How far you run
Still deep in the flow
Deep in the flow
Creeping snail to the edge on its own time
Your whole world in the air if it could only fly time
Navigation by the heart through it better believe
Sometimes it pouring under you
Before the rain is done
Shown colors die young
How far you run
Still deep in the flow
Deep in the flow
Step your feet out deciding what is under
Nothing can show you the way like your hunger
And leave you this way
Slow down there's always time to walk
Burning bridge shouldn't be so out of the way
Before the rain is done
Shown colors die young
How far you run
Still deep in the flow

Dixie Dynamite
(Freddy Jones Band/B. Shader)
Well here's a story 'bout a southern gal
She got all the parts and she's built quite well
and her name is Dixie Dynamite
She's a lady with beauty and grace
and she's got all this 'till you see her face
A pair so big they'll really grab your eyes
Big bad Bill was a man of means
When he come around you hear Dixie scream
They jumped in his Cadillac
Everyday for them was fun
Cruisin' on the highway called 101
They ain't comin' back, no
Dixie, won't you be my wife
Dixie, Dixie Dynamite
The truckers on their way back from Arkansas
Couldn't believe now what they saw
Dixie driving with her top on down
When the sun come out
She don't waste no time
Her and Bill drive to county line
They sit there and talk about their dairy farm
Bill said "Dixie won't you be my wife?"
She said "Yeah, babe let's share our life
You seem to be the man for me."
Dixie got as fat as a horse
Bill dumped her and gave her a divorce
He ran out the backdoor as fast as he could
Well he traded in his Caddy for some spandex jeans
Now he's a stud and drives a limousine
He owns a disco club in hollywood
Dixie, won't you be my wife
Dixie, Dixie Dynamite

Colors of the Light
(Healy)
Wind stood still and my feet were cold
Was a lightning storm as the story unfolds
Colors of the light and the sky was blue
Sounds of spring in the morning rain
And the silence grew too loud
Seemed unreal
Darkest blue I've even seen
Seemed unreal
Makes you wonder, woo yeah
Where's your mama at
Seasons change and we can't hear
Truth of knowledge brings me pain
Big mama's work you take for granted
Sounds of spring in the morning rain
And the silence grew too loud
Seemed unreal
Darkest blue I'd even seen
Seemed unreal
Makes you wonder
Don't bring me down
See the lightning
Don't bring me down

Ferris Wheel
(Healy)
Forest outside Winston-Salem, open your eyes
Churning burgundy and caramel leaves
And the gray Carolina skies
Offer wind so I can float on by
Gray carolina skies offer home tonight
Like a ferris wheel
Spinning by
Like a ferris wheel
October's slipping by
October's slipping by
Naked are the meadows
Copper times have gone
Without the lights from heaven
Purlow leaves are winters sun
Gray Carolina skies
Offer wind so I can float on by
Gray Carolina skies
Offer home tonight
Like a ferris wheel
October's slipping by
October's slipping by
Western coast I flew
early in november
Violet and orange paint highway times
Blue California skies
offer wind so I can float on by
Blue California skies

October's slipping by
November's slipping by

Goodbye
(Horrocks/R. Bonaccorsi/Healy)
There's a rider in the distance
Down the dusty old road
Can't be more than a mile away
And he's looking for a home
Looking for a home
Waiting down by Union Station
Back on the rail again
No concern for destination
He's just looking for a friend
Looking for a friend
Hush my children
Don't you cry
I know its hard
But it's time to say goodbye
When you're out on the highway
Do what you can to get by
Don't give in to temptation
'Cause it's time for us to fly
Time for us to fly
Hush my children
Don't you cry
I know its hard
But it's time to say goodbye

Hold on to Midnight
(Lloyd)
Living on rusted water
Vitamins and codeine
Rising tide to return
To the cool blue of the evening
Thread another needle its working
Pass the bottle of reason
Another blanket of feeling
I hear the stars are in season
Hold on to midnight
Feeling strong at the wrong time
Hold on to midnight
Feeling strong at the wrong time
Burning cold the daughter
Shine your light on the ceiling
Black cat testing water
Darkness father evening
Neon lights on the border
It's hard to see in the morning
Drag your feet to the pouring
Tired hands dropping quarters
Hold on to midnight
Feeling strong at the wrong time
Hold on to midnight
Feeling strong at the wrong time
Living on rusted water
Vitamins and codeine
Rising tide to return
To the cool blue of the evening
Hold on to midnight
Feeling strong at the wrong time
Hold on to midnight

If I Could
(Healy)
If I could, you know I would
end it all right now
If I could, you know I would
Bring it home somehow
No black or white
Blue is smeared across my soul
Schoolyard chalk under orange street lights
Bringing back that old familiar glow
Thank you for your help
Things are going better
Thank you for your help
You really picked me up
When I needed a hand
Take away your pain
Needles to my veins
Sirens in my head
Bed of nails to rest these thoughts upon
Crown of thorns to wear
Vultures flying overhead
No black or white
Blue is smeared across my soul
Schoolyard chalk under orange street lights
Bringing back that old familiar glow

In A Daydream
(Lloyd)
Tuesday mornin'
never looked so good
I'm already in
In a daydream
The sun is shinin'
It's here to wake me up
No one around
Just me and the sky
I'm already in
In a daydream
The sky is callin'
It's callin' out my name
Telling me just to stay
Stay, don't go away
And a breeze is blowin'
Blowin' across my face
Well I just don't know where
But I wish I could be there
Just for a little while
I'm already in
In a daydream

Into the Wind
(Healy)
Seems to me the boat is always rockin'
Waters calm the wind is fine
Think I'd rather drift than paddle
Last night I saw you jump the side
The island of Jamaica
Shows the children in your eyes
We sail to the borders
Here we stay till breaking points
This ship has been at sea a while now
Our navigation is drifter's choice
The island of Aruba
Show the children in your eyes
Take my hand and hold it children
Look into these old red eyes
Sail away, down that coast
Sail away, my best I'll try
Try the most
Try the most
Oh oh
Countless hands have helped to build her
A gracious journey she provides
This love of freedom with conviction
Music ends now, when we die
The island of Jamaica
Shows the children in your eyes
Its early morning when we finish
We go home and we get high
So leave the light in your window
I'll throw the rope when we pass by
Try the most
Try the most
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
Come along
Hold my hand
Into the Wind

Late This Morning
(Healy)
Barks the dog, in the kitchen
There's someone knockin' on my back door
Woke me up, late this morning
As if I hadn't slept already enough
If I won the lotto, I'd be much better off
Can't predict the future, money would be lost
Such a long way to go
Much farther than we have come
Such a long way to go
Search is over 'cause I found someone
Rings the phone, on the desk there
I pour my cup, I race to pick it up
Say hello, how are you friend
Let's talk a while now while we can
I remember waveland
Repelled against the walls
Distance now between us
Will strengthen us that more
Such a long way to go
Much farther than we have come
Such a long way to go
Search is over 'cause I found someone

Light of the Moon
(Gatti)
Dance by the light of the moon
Casting shadows across the room
Somewhere slow
Soft and low
Played by the minstrels in the night
Feel line as the first quite vain
First quite vain
Cast on the morning
Under a spell
The dark ones fell
Drawn to the window
as the sparrow takes his flight
Go now broken sparrow
Fly beyond the tree
Archer arrow flown
Through a summer breeze
Playing in a meadow
Through a summer breeze
Grace be to god my lonesome heart
My lonesome heart
Search for reasons
Taught on high
Taught on high
Far from here
Just away from here
Drawn to the lands that you long call home
Sing for me my muse in flight
Sing for me won't
If you may or if you might
Just for me can't you see
In my heart you know
You will find a home

Mystic Buzz
(Lloyd)
I can feel
this red crescendo
Light on me
As blue as the wind blows
We talk to strangers just for the flavor
We're like the roller coaster road angels
If there's a crack in the halo
We'll fall back on our wings
If love dropped from a bottle
We'll drink it down again
And this mystic buzz
If love dropped from a bottle
This mystic buzz
Fallin' down on our wings
This mystic buzz
Reachin' out over maybe
This mystic
Right back where we ended up again
Prophet feed through this flavor
I don't need to see through the danger
We'll walk through rows of purple beginnings
No more the only lonely that's winning
If there's a crack in the halo
We'll fall back on our wings
If love dropped from a bottle
We'll drink it down again
And this mystic buzz

Night to Day
(Healy/Lloyd)
Cows are standing in the fields today
The sun it shines there'll be no rain
A mile or more were on our way
Traffic slows to a crawl
Running out of jokes to tell
Windows fog as wheels they roll
Aces wild as daylight fell
Eye lids faded long ago
Some say a silly road we take
full of bumps we travel on
This widespread love is no mistake
Ideas we've chosen can't be wrong
We drive from night to day
We drive from day to night

Old Angels
(Lloyd)
Hands shoved down deep in my pockets
Talking through the warm of your breath
So drunken by the words that you were saying
Times like these I wish they could last
Do you believe in the strangers
Finding out that they are old angels
And a hope comes rising up from nowhere
A cold shot of chill through your spine
It seems that you're watching from the outside
Is it someone else that's talking through the wine
Do you believe in the strangers
Finding out that they are old angels
How long has this been inside you
This word is burning recall
Away from the edge you hang on to
Let me in
Electric runs the passion through your waiting
Your heart I can feel it so fast
Do you believe in the strangers
Finding out that they are old angels
How long has this been inside you
This word is burning recall
Away from the edge you hang on to
Let me in
Wrapped up in your field of emotion
I've never needed it so bad
Caught up in your field of emotion
I've never needed so bad
How long has this been inside you
This word is burning recall
Away from the edge you hang on to
Let me in
Further that you fall away

One World
(Lloyd)
On the gypsy's avenue tonight
Under glass seemed like a thousand candle lights
I do not read what the signs they have to say
In my soul there are edges locked away
One world within
One heart is beating still today
An open road
One love can carry you away
If you lost all of your obsessions
Would you part of what you claim
to your possessions
I do believe in a sweet imagination
An open road begged by inspiration
One world within
One heart is beating still today
An open road
One love can carry you away
So many thorns are wrapped your ankles
Bleeding gold and its taken by the bank
Well I believe in a sweeter than sensation
An open path then I choke in wet temptation
One world within
One heart is beating still today
An open road
One love can carry you away
One world within
Afraid of the cold
Unlock doors in anger
With the keys you hold
One world within
Afraid to be so
Thorns around your ankles
Makes you bleed in, bleed in
Bleed in gold

The Other Side
(R. Bonaccorsi)
You gotta cross those tracks
When the train passes by
You gotta cross those tracks
When the train passes by
You've been there so long
That's no need to be confined
There is no other world
That is as mean as your own
No other world
That is as cruel as being alone
You gotta cross those tracks
Go find yourself a new home
You gotta cross those tracks
When the train passes by
You gotta cross those tracks
When the train passes by
There's no turning back
When you get to the other side
No turning back
When you get to the other side
No turning back

A field to plant your seed
The apple must be thrown
To grow another tree
Throwin' like a stone
Like razor to the bone
Sometimes it hurts to find your home
Peace by Piece
Well you find yourself just waiting
Waiting for the rain
And wash away the sorrow
Sorrow and your pain
Flash in like a fire
Won't you cut into a wire
Dig deep and search inside your things

The Puppet
(Lloyd)
Let me step inside these shoes
Trip awhile of the blues
Pull these strings on my hands
Playin' time with the band
I'll tie you up in a ribbon of tune
And sing a song that will send you
Feelin' fine
Not just for one moment
On down the line
Until the roads ends
Through the other side
Not just for one moment
Chasing after the light
Until the darkness fades
Peel the face back and cry
Make you laugh
And make you smile for awhile
Dance my legs down a cartoon colored lane
Float my fingers down the tracks of a train
The song comes blowin' out of nowhere
Like a trumpet fills the air
Sends you
Feelin' fine
Not just for one moment
On down the line
Until the roads ends
Through the other side
Not just for one moment
Chasing after the life
Until the darkness fades
Tear down the life line
Let my heart beat free
Tear down the life line
Let my heart beat free
Oh so free
Cut the strings away from me
Now I'm standin' on my own
Beat is marching on all the notes
have all be flown
Flash these lines to a high
This puppet needs no lines
Let those curtains fly
Tie you up in a ribbon of tune
Sing a song that you will send you
Feelin' fine
Not just for one moment
On down the line
Until the roads ends
Through the other side
Not just for one moment
Chasing after the light
Until the darkness fades away from me

Texas Skies

First thing I saw
before I touched that ground
Silver lining made me cry out loud
Looked out my window
at the clouds below
Looks like heaven
Inspiration for my show
I can't recall when I ever felt so high
Looking at that late sunset
just fading in the sky
Touched down in Memphis now
with just time to kill
Get me back on the bird
Back to Yazgur's hill
I'm riding easy
Where eagles fly
I'm riding easy
Through Texas skies
I hate the thought of leaving
Quiet walks by the stream
Making me believe in
Southern Skies, get me by
Makes me wanna fly away
Back to Chicago where we're
greeted with a smile
Speaking of skies that silver lining
gets me by
Down on the street
Where I sure do pavement things
Riding out on my two wheel horse
Staring up at the stars
I'm riding easy
Where eagles fly
I'm riding easy

It's been weeks since I've slept
They keep playin' it everyday
Someday soon when the sun goes down
She'll come into my room
Love, hold me, make me believe
Believe that this could be soon
Believe that this could be soon
I don't know her name
I see her everyday
Drowning in her deep blue eyes
To this memory all I pray
Before the night falls today
Takes this all from me
Cleanse me of her image Lord
In the rivers of my dreams

This Time Around
(Lloyd)
Bored and gray I'm feelin'
Feelin' left all alone
Not quite sure of myself
Yet I was well on my own
Was watchin' you awake about me again
Then watch as mouths go by
When will I see you again
Got to hand it you cry
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
So many games left to play
We threw our glasses in the river
City lights send us sky
Think of us as we pass this way
With tears in our eyes
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
So many games left to play
Things will be better this time around
Bridges we build won't break down
Feelings won't be kept inside
We'll open doors, nothing to hide
Now that the spot on the moon has appeared
And the fall winds start to blow
The river still runs deep and wide
But it's time for you to know
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
Sweet sunshine, don't go away
So many games left to play
Things will be better this time around
Bridges we build won't break down
Feelings won't be kept inside
We'll open doors, nothing to hide

Turn
(Horrocks)
Smoke of cigarettes lingers on your clothes
Billie Holiday singing eyes closed
Conversation to the edge of your seat
The too long stare of someone you'll never meet
If I came to you in the middle of the day
Would you let me in, would you let me in?
If I came to you in the middle of the day
Would you let me in or turn me away?
I can hear the innocence in your voice
I should have listened but I had no choice
I see your photograph a thought comes over me
Where are you tonight?
If I came to you in the middle of the day
Would you let me in, would you let me in?
If I came to you in the middle of the day
Would you let me in or turn me away?

Under the Tree
(Lloyd)
The coffee burns my tongue to silence
Standin' in a phone booth under a lightning
You say it will make me feel a little better
If you turn that Pontiac around in this weather
And meet me under the tree
Commonly the burden is even
between the light of conversation
But the colder winds makes it come easy
I'll drive all night if the radio is receiving
And meet me under the tree
The roads are slick and the engine wants to fly on
a thousand miles an hour to a rain song
The perfect sounds of keys are shaking
to the rhythm of your voice in my head
I'll be here when you make it home
And meet me under the tree

Waiting on the Stone
(Lloyd)
When the semillion settles you down
When the birdcage door swings around
There's no one to blow this good feeling out
I'm breathing easier now
Waiting on the stone
I'm walking on hire ground
Waiting on the stone
Numb the vapors always sweeter than the taste
in the blocks you're running faster than the race
And all the pieces of the puzzle on the floor
Paints the picture when I'm looking for
I'm breathing easier now
Waiting on the stone
I'm walking on hire ground
Waiting on the stone

Waitress
(Healy)
Well time stood still for a moment now in yesterday's
Sun that made me blind I‘m thinking sideways
Well a waitress well she breaks her back for cheap
Smiles how it going
Is it coffee or some tea?
Well an old man well he stands outside the diner
Holds a cane and red swollen eyes
Shakes his cup
Cause miracles come from small change
Love of drink sparkles in his eyes
Well it's just another day with out a dollar
Too many brothers they can't spare a dime
Just another day with no tomorrow
For that little sister you can't spare the time
For that little sister you can't spare your...

Walk As One
(Healy)
Cathedral ceilings stapled to the sky
A gathering of angels to witness now our trials
Old rock quarry,floats with broken mirrors
All my dreams feeding on my inner fears
Weed is gone we've smoked till we're red
Blue Moon sits alone on the horizon as its bed
There ain't no riddle ain't no rhyme
We'll walk as one this is our time
We can show the world
We can walk as one
Black parking lot fence has finally fallen down
Rust has grown while the circle comes around

Warm Like Home
(Healy)
Talk to her for a little while
At nights before I go to sleep
If I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
Mother's on the telephone
Voice is far but warm like home
Father can you hear me too
I've worn the soles now on these shoes
Everybody has across to bear
Road ahead walk alone
Cut your lip the skin it bleeds
From the hard work your life is drawn
Million ways to skin the cat
To try a few you sure can't lose
Day is done I'll lay my hat
On the barstool next to you
Strangers is what we've become
Something was has been undone
If a branch falls from that tree
All hands are clean from dirt they're free

Wonder
(Lyrics: Horrocks, Music: Healy/Horrocks)
Something tells me I've been wrong before
I can see your eyes
If you could only take them from the floor
I could shed this disguise
Something tells me I've been hurt before
Some things better left behind
If you could only walk away from them all
You could stay with me for a while
I wonder what you are
Tell me what you need
I wonder what you're thinking
Looking down on me
I was only dreaming
Little things for free
Thinking about desire
What it means to me
Scattered pieces on the floor
Broken feelings from the shelf
To the dustbin now where they belong
Reflections I can see myself
I wonder what you are
Tell me what you need
I wonder what you're thinking
Looking down on me
I was only dreaming
Little things for free
Thinking about desire
What it means to me
Broken Arrows falling from that sky
Some will stand stand the test if time
Try to remember I do myself
Answers can't be far behind
