If you should wake and find me gone
Keep safe this night and dwell upon
Such murmurations, sun sunk deep
Now close your eyes and go to sleep
What a day it’s been
A day of shoot the breezes
What a day it’s been this time of year
Oh yes it is
Just a day when the weight of the world slides away
Feel that sun on your back
See the shadows falling
Sea meets shore and soothes it with a song
Oh yeah
If this should be my last day on Earth, I’ll sing along
New day, always
Let’s forget all the skies cast over the rain
And the sqouring tempest of doubt
Holding on clinging tight in the wreckage of love
But today
What a time to dream
What a day of easy
What a day it’s been this time of year
Oh yeah
Just a day when the weight of the world slides away
New day, always
Evening Star, a guitar in the smoke of the fire
Light of gold in the garden of old
I will take it all again if it came my way
But today

All Lovers Are Deranged
It takes a fool to phone a fool When both have said it all We make the rule, bemoan the rule That neither one should call But love that was Is love that is Demands to …
Between Two Points
Broke an early promise Put trust in an unknown Fell headlong into the arms Of the first that stirred me Unsteadied a steady heart And took me to a place I’ve never …
