1. _ The Night You Saved My Life
In the beginning my love was fierce
One heart stopped and another started
I flashed my eyes, cracked wise and left them dry
Now I sit with my babe at my breast
I was never this good at my best
Never higher
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The wood was closing in, foggy was the night
The night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
I spy with my third eye
Something volatile and vital
So say goodnight, sleep tight, don't let them bite
Now I stand with the wind at my back
Every day brings a new breed of jackass
I was never good at monkey-in-the-middle
Never a fighter
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The wood was closing in, foggy was the night
The night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind
The moon was paper white the night you saved my life
When my spirit guide left me behind

2. _ Another Moment
All your friends have changed
Another moment too soon for you
The angle shifts again
Another moment too soon
Now it's time to take a walk
Now it's time to take the walk you've been side-slipping
Time to move your sorry bones up off the floor
Time to rise above your situation
Time to make sure the current pauses at your door
Time to seek your own level baby
Amazing things have strayed within your reach
Are you unfazed and unimpressed by all you could have had with ease
Amazing things have strayed within your reach
Another moment too soon for you
Now it's time to take the walk you've been side-slipping
Time to move your sorry bones...
So what if you come undone on your way to the sun
Your home-made kite melts down and out of sight
You'll find that your arms are fine and strong and move you along
And not a moment too soon
Time to move your sorry bones...

3. _ Life Is But A Dream
And a shadow fell
Bringing sleep to all
Life is but a dream
Ours
When you disappear
You are everywhere
Life is but a dream
Ours
In our beauty sleep
In big sleep together
Nothing ever ends
Nothing lasts forever
You'll come back again
I am waiting then
Life is but a dream
It's ours
Life is but a dream

4. _ Keeping You
I'm keeping you i'm keeping you
I'm keeping you so realize your fate
I'm keeping you i'm keeping you
I'm keeping you so settle down now
You landed here from inner space
You landed with that screwed-up look on your face
I wanted you from way back when
I wanted you for years, then years again
I'm keeping you i'm keeping you
I'm keeping you so settle in now
My return to wildlife by satellite
By beautiful moon-shining girl
Whether by hard ground or splashdown
We're safely back in the world
My heart's not new
I'm not like you
I've loved and been loved well and badly too
My body's been through everything
I've used and been used
I got over it
There's something that you learn on a tightrope
Just outside the spotlight there's a big net waiting for...
My return to wildlife by satellite
By beautiful moon-shining girl
Whether by hard ground or splashdown
We're safely back in the world
I'm keeping you

5. _ Wrap-Around Skirt
This world is a wrap-around skirt
This world is a wrap-around skirt
And i'm gonna throw it off
I'm gonna throw it off
I'm rising up rising up
Maybe I worry cause I know how things work
I know how things can work out
Maybe they don't
Maybe that's how
This world is a fickle young girl
This world is a fickle young girl
It's high time we married her off
How about to gassy old jupiter
Maybe I worry cause I know how things work
I know how things can work out
Maybe they don't
Maybe that's how
Someone draw me a map so I can get back
To the edge of the world
And make my place in negative space
Among my kin
That's the only way to begin

6. _ So Much Song
So much to lose
Anyway so much to prove
Step away from the wreck
But leave a match for my last cigarette
Someone's got to pay
Someone's got to pay for this
I know my name has not been easy on your lips
And I know that smile is evidence of this
And I know my picture will not be carried with you
Now someone's got to stay and clean up this mess
So much to leave
Anyway so much for me
Have you held your breath
Through this tragic display of my last laugh
Someone's got to pay for this
I know my name...
So much to do
Anyway, i'm done with you

7. _ The Storm
Look I can't watch you
Sleep-walking through this
Should we find another party
I'm not shining tonight just radioactive
You have carbonated my bloodstream
When I stumble
It will be under your spell, at your command
And when I stumble
It will be into your hand
Too much passion we waste
In just trying to get it right one time
With our clothes on we're brave
And mummified and out of sight
When I stumble...
Can it be
Can it be the storm has passed
I'm not finished yet, i'm under construction
You can peek behind the curtain if you want
You watch, don't stop
My reputation's shot
I just wanted to get it right
Can it be
Can it be the storm has passed

8. _ The Wave
My face has never been one to betray me
It lies when I need it to
It sends out a white blinding light in your eyes
'Till I figure out what i'm gonna do
We meet in the kitchen and roll on the floor
And I look in your face for something restoring
And take from you barely enough for a lifetime of
Holding out on you
Holding out on you
I see my storyline within you
And I see the river rise to meet you
'Cause you started you started
Harnessing the wave
My face has never been one to betray me
It lies when I need it to
But lately it seems you been laughing at me
So I guess you're the one I can't fool
I see my storyline within you
And I see the river rise to meet you
And I see my angel kneel to kiss you
Cause you started you started
Harnessing the wave
You started
You started honey

9. _ Darkside
From the dark side of the sun
My supernatural one
You fell into grace
Move slowly if not carefully
Then in silence sometimes
Blighted and solo
This is where I come in reeling
Our future waits on the field of fair play
I will meet you there someday
You come on like a sunburn baby
My runaway old flame
I know you come in peace
But i'm still afraid
From the dark side of the sun
My supernatural one
You fell into my grace
Suffer me if not gladly
Then in silence sometimes
Our future waits on the field of fair play
I will meet you there someday
You come on like a sunburn baby
My runaway old flame
I know you come in peace
But i'm still afraid
Blighted and solo
This is where I come in

10. _ Head For Math
I wish I had a head for math
So I could talk to you
And hear the song behind the sign
And maybe dance there too.
Lose my license, lose my breath
And lose my precious cool.
And fall asleep in the spiral arms of the Milky way with you.
Blessed be, your work through me
Blessed be, you will be done
Found an ancient photograph
It looks a lot like you.
Wild eyes, and crazy hair reaching out to god knows who
I'll be your compass, I'll be your graph,
And your Rosetta [i.e., Stone] too.
I spy, with my third eye, your hippie-dippy ingenue.
I can learn, that's all I can do,
And fall asleep in the spiral arms of the Milky Way with you.
Blessed be, your work through me
Blessed be, you will be done
Blessed be, your work through me
Blessed be, you will be done

11. _ The Shadow
Walk with me awhile
I've got something to say to you or ask you
I don't know
It's been a long day
If the dove falls in the sea
Never bringing us a leaf
Will you come into the shadow with me
Will you follow me under
If I wash up on the beach
And i've lost all memory
Will you come into the shadow with me
Will you follow me under
If I decide to bring it all down
Will you stay and help me figure it out
Will you come into the shadow with me
Will you follow me under
Walk awhile with me
I've got something to say to you or ask you
Will you come into the shadow with me
Will you follow me under
I know it stinks
Spinning on my fingertips

12. _ Moonbeam Monkey
I'm an angel dark, darker than loam
Come to steer your runaway home
I'm a moonbeam monkey on spec
Come to bring your strange kid back
No one saw him gimpy going round the bend
And no one but me knows the stuff it takes to mend him
I will get him back on the right track
I will bring your strange kid back
He saw something there, something in the ice
Sees it still when he closes his eyes
He's not talking, just taking it alone
I will bring his story home
He's not talking, just taking it alone
He's a good boy, your good son
I'm an angel dark, darker than loam
I will bring your strange kid home
