Empty to Fill
02:45
|

I’m a little bit shattered, I’m a little bit stained.
I’m the wind across the river, I’m the words on the page.
Open me slowly, and you will find …
Eternal darkness, and infinite light.
I’m a mouth full of questions, I’m a sky full of doubt.
I’m the look on your face, when you figure it out.
Chained at the ankle, to one who is free …
Inside of yourself, you will find me.
Doors the don’t open, wheels that won’t roll.
The things that we wanted, are beyond our control.
Given to silence, holding me still …
Endlessly empty, I want you to fill.
Endlessly empty, I want you to fill.

For My Love
03:09
|

I'll sit, with the pain,
until the sun, shines again.
For my love, for my love, for my love.
Trembling heart, lying in the street,
you know I'd do, anything.
For my love, for my love, for my love.
For my love, I'm willing to abide,
the words on the wind, and the hands of time.
Hiding in the shadows, down along the shore,
I keep on coming back, to where I was before.
For my love, for my love, for my love.
Underneath the surface, just beyond the shine,
I send everything I have, to the other side.
For my love, for my love, for my love, for my love.

California Way
04:14
|
|||
I was just a child, when I left my home, and it seems like only yesterday.
With a head full of dreams, and heart bursting at the seams,
I set my sights on California Way.
Well the night were cold, as I travelled down the road, and I trembled, but I was not afraid.
There was hope, there was love, and light shining high above,
from the stars on California Way.
I didn’t have a dollar, as I wondered crowded streets,
but there were friends on every corner, and fruit up in the trees.
With the sun beating down, and my feet up in the shade ...
That’s how I remember, California Way.
White sane beaches, and the air smelled like peaches, it’s the stuff of which castles are made.
But the time went so fast, and now I’m looking back,
at the years on California Way.
I didn’t have a dollar, as I wondered crowded streets,
but there were friends on every corner, and fruit up in the trees.
With the sun beating down, and my feet up in the shade ...
That’s how I remember, California Way.
That’s how I remember, California Way.

Shoreline After a Storm
03:47
|
|||
Out on the water, night is getting full
Moonlight sings her lullaby, Selkie slips along
Waves lapping lightly, ocean’s taken form
No lightening and thunder
Shoreline after a storm
Beach is broken, boat is unmanned
Nature’s destruction with her terrible hand
Shapes of arbutus, ragged and torn
No guests in this garden
Shoreline after a storm
I see you from my boat, but I cannot land
And I can’t keep drifting here, along this sand
For though I seek a harbour
You just won’t open your hand
After it’s all over, hurt has made its cleft
Underbelly scarred I’m the shape of all that’s left
Confused and asunder, ragged forlorn
Your weight has pulled me under
Shoreline after a storm
Shoreline after a storm

Lucky in Love
03:12
|
|||
You’re out there on the road tonight, like so many nights before.
I am waiting here for you, to walk in through that door.
I’ll pull you close in my arms, and whisper in your ear.
I’ll do anything that you want, anytime, anywhere.
'Cause something about you, keeps breaking me down.
I’ve been lucky in love, and you’re the best thing I’ve ever found.
The last note fades, and the lights come up, a hotel room awaits.
Gazing out across the crowd, I’m searching for your face.
Dreaming of your warm caress and, your tender kiss.
I’ll do anything that you ask, that’s just the way that it is.
'Cause something about you, keeps breaking me down.
I’ve been lucky in love, and you’re the best thing I’ve ever found.
Buy a ticket, get on a plane, I’m someone else, you’re not the same.
But it don’t matter, when this is how we feel ...
Let’s take our chips, and cash them in, we’ll walk away from this city of sin.
We’re lucky in love, and this is how we win ...
We’re lucky in love, and this is how we win.

Will You
03:16
|

Will you take me as I am, in the sunshine and the rain.
Will you walk by my side, without changing anything.
Will your fire still burn bright, as my beauty starts to fade.
Will you hold me in your heart, and never turn the other way.
Will you, will you ... let this wandering soul come in.
Will you, will you ... bare witness to who I am.
Will you listen to the words, when I write you a love song.
Will you still ask me to sing, long after my voice is gone.
Will you wrap me in your arms, and then still my shaking hands.
Will you give me everything, and always take me as I am.
Will you, will you ... let this wandering soul come in.
Will you, will you ... bare witness to who I am.
Will you, will you ... let this wandering soul come in.
Will you, will you ... bare witness to who I am.
Will you take me as I am, without changing anything.
Will you walk by my side, in the sunshine and the rain.

There’s a very good chance, you might fall for me.
There’s a very good chance, that’s what I believe.
There’s a very good chance, our hands may intertwine ...
And there’s a very good chance, that you might be mine.
There’s a very good chance, I will pull you close.
There’s a very good chance, you already know.
There’s a very good chance, that your heart will shine ...
And there’s a very good chance, I’ll want you all of the time.
There’s a very good chance, you’re where I belong.
There’s a very good chance, I’ll write you a song.
There’s a very good chance, you’ll hear it on the radio ...
And there’s a very good chance, that everybody will know.
There’s a very good chance, I’ll be your sweetest kiss.
There’s a very good chance, I’ll be worth the risk.
There’s a very good chance, you’ll know just what to do.
And there’s a very good chance, I’ll fall in love with you.

Flowers Grow
05:13
|
|||
She hollowed a space inside me, it was the dearness of her face.
Alone at the table, I’m setting her a place.
Remember me, as you fall asleep, whispering softly, the wind in the trees.
Flowers grow, in the snow, wherever my love, comes and goes.
Rivers run, to the sea, wherever she’s gone, you’ll find me.
She slipped into forever, I know she did not have a choice.
I still feel her near me, hear the timbre of her voice.
Remember me, as you fall asleep, whispering softly, the wind in the trees.
Flowers grow, in the snow, wherever my love, comes and goes.
Rivers run, to the sea, wherever she’s gone, you’ll find me.
Stars that fall, from a glittering sky.
Ever the question, and the answer is why?
Flowers grow, in the snow, wherever my love, comes and goes.
Rivers run, to the sea, wherever she’s gone, you’ll find me.

Seven Daffodils
03:04
|
|||
I may not have mansion, I haven't any land.
Not even a paper dollar to crinkle in my hands.
But I can show you morning, on a thousand hills.
And kiss you and give you seven daffodils.
I do not have a fortune to buy you pretty things.
But I can weave you moonbeams for necklaces and rings.
And I can show you morning on a thousand hills.
And kiss you and give you seven daffodils.
Oh, seven golden daffodils all shining in the sun.
To light our way to evening when our day is done.
And I will give you music, and a crust of bread.
And a pillow of piny boughs to rest your head.
A pillow of piny boughs to rest your head.
