So Glad 04:36
First I go out in the hallway To see what survived the storm Broken windows still quietly frame The last remnants of humanity I’m so glad . You are finally here. Waited for you. Waited well past the year. I almost heard the ocean I almost heard you Swimming in the depths of reasons We lingered well past the dawn. I’m so glad .You are finally here Waited for you. Waited for all time. Pawn store jewelry and she takes his ring Puts it on a necklace from a bubblegum machine He places his hand upon her face, and then her neck Gently whispers into her ear. I’m so glad .You are finally here. Waited for you. Waited til you got home. I’m so glad. You are finally here Waited for you. There’s no one here like you.

Half a day from Texas Half a world from you Thought I saw that blue dress The one I almost bought for you Honey, don’t you worry anymore It’s time you pick up those things off the floor Honey, don’t you worry anymore If you didn’t already The circus just left town It wouldn’t matter to anyone That I saw you falling down Honey, don’t you worry anymore Just leave your bags outside the door Honey, don’t you worry anymore Lost my car in Memphis Slept in a hotel room Tore my shirt and my blankets Drawing pictures of you Honey, don’t you worry anymore Its time for you to leave now through that door Honey, don’t you worry anymore Honey, don’t you worry anymore

This old heart is like a boat Drifting out on a wave So delicate and so quiet Such a strange sight to see. I’m gonna bring you flowers I’m gonna paint the moon I’ll be here tomorrow, like I ain’t ever been gone. Hold her hand for a little while Watch the ripples in the pond Birds pass over us Daffodils strike balance and grace. Let you love come pouring down Let it come like a springtime rain I’ll be here tomorrow, like I ain’t ever been gone. Should night grow black as ink And the stars seem to disappear You’ll feel my hands start to guide you Through the darkness toward the light. I’m gonna bring you flowers I’m gonna paint the moon I’ll be here tomorrow, like I ain’t ever been gone.

I'm a sunset waiting to happen, I might just burn my way through Texas,  She drives me crazy  she drives me mad Six days being lazy I'm gonna need a plan I’ve seen the wind and heard the sun I wish it could have been different, but I’m the only one She drives me crazy  She drives me mad I'm waiting for tomorrow  I better take a chance                I built this house for you         From a pile of stones                I picked them one by one            I carried you home Indeed this is what, that I've seen is the best. And everything that is forgotten is just like the rest. The tightness of your dress Your steely grey eyes That cut me with a smile I’ll be home in a while She drives me crazy  she drives me mad Six days being lazy I write her name in the sand

No tickets required Scenario unveils An empty room Unopened mail. Hung behind curtains Torn up papers Flood waters rising In a season that passes I went to the museum To stare at the walls I saw you standing The only one with a smile It’s the ease of focus Unturned and pointed The daggers are dulled Her plans will fail Just then I heard money Roll across the floor A little boy came running Laughing and bored Put you hand to the water Let it breathe you there Send your wishes to the heavens Send a dream if you care It’s just so damn easy Just to let it all go With one foot dragging The other stuck in the door It’s a season that passes It’s not today It’s not half bad We can do better

You seemed so young in the day At night you were impossible Beauty and the moon conspiring To make you the finest in the world These are the only words That I can sing and I’m falling away Just crawling away again Forty days and forty nights of redemption. Forty days and forty nights of redemption. Just like children in an open field The sun setting right there An orange fire burning Just before the night will come Unhinging stars fall from that sky So vast and so, so very wide Just like my heart I throw it open baby I throw it open for you. Forty days and forty nights of redemption. Forty days and forty nights of redemption. All the flowers in the garden Couldn’t hold a candle to you All the trees in the forest They’ll all be singing, They’ll all be sing for you

Lillianne 04:32
My lord it’s gonna rain, and nothing seems the same Once again I’m alone. empty pockets and a bit of shame Should have told her when I had the chance She got married and they shared a dance Lillianne, Lillianne says a prayer for me I said I’d wait for her if it takes til eternity The times are harder, its always cold Winter’s never gonna leave, death’s taken hold Seems so long ago, that we heard them sing Ain’t it funny now, what the lord will bring Lillianne, Lillianne says a prayer for me The lights are fading all around me The time for crying now has passed It’s not the first time, won’t be the last The road is lonely, and distorted too Makes you wonder will we ever make it through Lillianne, Lillianne says a prayer for me The battle’s raging but its mostly inside of me I see her dancing in a field of green. Crimson hair, a vision in my dream I only wish that the dream was real But when I think of her, hurt is all I feel. Lillianne, Lillianne says a prayer for me The night is over, and my soul is finally free

Turn off the light So it’s dark in here Let the darkness be our friend Let me hear you whisper Gently like the night Wanna let you ramble Ramble on past dawn Wanna hear that song Turn off the light We ain’t nearly there Wanna stay with you forever For the rest of my days Wanna hear you say How you come back around Turn off the light Let the record play Push back your hair Im standing right here I ain’t leaving tonight Turn off the light Turn off the light
9.
On and on again let me show you where let me hear your whispers let me hear your prayer On and on again Your sister's in the thick of it hiding in the wood She's been hiding from the wicked I don't know  how long this will go on  but from the look of it  It might take a while On and on again I won’t fail you now I won’t let you down I don't even know how On and on again believe me today believe me tomorrow believe me anyway I don't know  how long this will go on  but from the look of it  It might take a while On and on again On and on again
