Devil's Due

She was all sizzle no steak
The kind of heart that was on the take, well
I took the plunge
She skipped the state
She was a summer swim and I had winter skates
On this clump of dirt we’re all the same
Well look at us, from stars and dust just shoveling pain
Do we move on do we hold on to this river we tamed
That quenches the heart like a fistful of rain
Thirsty thirsty
For love like holy water (Mmmhmmm)
Take me take me
I’ll be your whipping boy
Too easy too easy
Am I to surrender (Mmmhmmm)
I'll be I'll be
This is my holy war
In the morning
Right beside you
Where we fall asleep
You’re my baby
In the morning
Wake up by you
Your smile so sweet
Make a deal with the devil before the dust settles the devil will get his due
The music keeps playing but the show’s long gone
I got a fistful of rain to keep my head rosy and wrong
Thirsty thirsty
For love like holy water (Mmmhmmm)
Take me take me
I’ll be your whipping boy
Too easy too easy
Am i to surrender (Mmmhmmm)
I'll be I'll be
This is my holy war
In the morning
Right beside you
Where we fall asleep
You’re my baby
In the morning
Wake by you
Your smile so sweet
Oh my my my oh my you’re my baby!
In the morning
Right beside you
Your eyes so sweet
Make a deal with the devil before the dust settles the devil will get his due

Moonrise
04:59
|

When the summer full moon rises
And the angels open up their wings
Music like an incantation
Hangs in the air on shiny silver strings
And so you move your body
Ankle bells and blue and golden rings
When the summer full moon rises
I just wanna ride your angel wings
When the summer full moon rises
Melodies catch us in a spell
Campfire incantations
Burning sweet and deep and oh so well
And the rhythm wraps your body
Ankle bells and blue and golden rings
When the summer full moon rises
And the angels open up their wings
Remember all the friends that brought us here tonight
The stars spinning a love song on ancient light
They say when we were born it was the perfect time
To be in these heavenly bodies under heaven’s shine
When the summer full moon rises
Thick and sweet the night air it brings
Heavy like an incantation
Upon your lips and waiting to sing
And so we move together
Because there’s love in everything
Whisper murmur then it rises
Ankle bells and blue and golden rings
Hit the groove and now we’re moving
Finger tips down through your toes
Feel the sweat upon your body
We can see how deep and sweet it goes
And the rhythm moves in you
Ankle bells and blue and golden rings
When the summer full moon rises
Baby we will ride your wings
Remember all the friends that brought us here tonight
The stars spinning a love song on ancient light
They say when we were born it was the perfect time
To be in these heavenly bodies under heaven’s shine
Remember all the dreams that brought us here tonight
The stars spinning a love song on ancient light
We were holding each close lying under the stars
Like diamonds in the rough scattered between tents and cars
Remember summer nights we thought would never end
I was singing my love her love song then kissing all her friends
The stars when we were born said it’s the perfect time
To be in these heavenly bodies under heaven’s shine

One More Time
05:19
|
|||
The wind blew the fire out
And the roar of the river was drowned
By the ringing in my fears
Behind the heaving in my chest
An old stone came to rest
And it’s hardened me to the core, I believe
Well I’ve never felt a love like my love for you
Never seen a universe like I touched in you
A ball of flame in the palm my hand
Burning so sweetly
Say that you are leaving one more time, don’t cry
Come help me to believe that our two loves won’t entwine
Oh love
Your speed blew the tires out
I can’t keep up if you've come unwound
And I’m burning through my gears
Like a shockwave through my brain
Our best memories play frame by frame
Spinning through my head as if I'm already dead
I never wanted my own kingdom ’til I fell for you
So you could be ruler and I could be crew
Fix the world with a wave of your hand
Burning so sweetly
Well I’ve never seen an ocean like the one in you
So I roll with the wind like the waves that you rule
Cast away with a shrug of your hand
You hurt me so sweetly
Say that you are leaving one more time, don’t cry
Come help me to believe that our two loves won’t entwine
Say that you are leaving one more time, oh love
Well I’ve never felt a rhythm like the one in you
So I bend with the breeze as it blows through your bloom
Endless warmth in the touch of our hands
Burning so sweetly
I never wanted my own kingdom ’til I fell for you
So you could be ruler and I could be crew
Fix the world with a wave of your hand
You hurt me so sweetly
Say that you are leaving one more time, don’t cry
Come help me to believe that our two loves won’t entwine
Say that you are leaving one more time, oh love
Oh love

Lamplighter
05:07
|

You and I are the windblown
Lost in faraway places
Yet the only refuge we know
We find in each other’s faces
I will be your lamplighter, love
So you can find your way
And we'll find our way back home
You carry me like a movie
Our old love like a good meal
Replenishing where we’ve been defeated
By the love we still feel
I will be your lamplighter, love
So you can find your way
You and I were made for wonder
You and I were made to last
Whether here or with another
Come be rebuilt for love at last
Come ignite this whim and wonder
Come delight in our own surprise
For tumbled hearts are ripe for plunder
But tender trust is in your eyes
So let us linger in this moment
Tip of tongue through shattered glass
And taste a touch of time rekindled
And face the blush of memories passed
Come picture this beyond our window
With colors bright in the darkened sky
Where broken hearts resign their torture
With open arms towards the night
I will be your lamplighter, love
Will you be the lamplighter for me
And we’ll find our way

Kingdom of Glass

Won’t you come and run away with me
Pack up your bags let the TV scream
There is nothing nothing left to see, oh
Just look around
Just look around
Just look around you
Oh my love look around
Just look around
Just look around you
Our fears they open wide
And they writhe around with the same old stories
They’re feeding us the same same lies
We better get inside
Or we better rise
Bombs away and we’re standing proud
As we leapfrog around the world ’til the lily pads run out
They’ll take your comfort and take your home
Just look around
Just look around
Just look around you
Won’t you hold me
Won’t you hold me
Our fears they open wide
And they writhe around with the same old stories
They’re feeding us the same same lies
‘Cause there’s a hole in the ground in New York City
We’re all being taken for a ride
We better get inside
Or we better rise
Hope and change hope and war you better get inside and lock the door
They’re gonna find you
Left is right up is down take all of your love and melt it down
They’re gonna own you
Just look around
Just look around
Just look around
Just look around
Won’t you hold me
Won’t you hold me
Our fears they open wide
And they writhe around in the same old bullshit
They’re feeding us the same same lies
Just thinking about it makes me silly
This crookedness is eating us alive
It’s overflowing like a river in New Orleans
You got to get out if you want to stay alive
‘Cause the water’s gonna rise
The water’s gonna rise
Lift me up like a weary soldier
I would risk it all for your embrace
Oh my love let me hide inside you
And lets throw our love at the kingdom of glass ’til it breaks
Won’t you hold me
Won’t you hold me
Won’t you hold me
Won’t you hold me
Lift me up like a weary soldier
I would risk it all for your embrace
Oh my love let me hide inside you
And lets throw our love at the kingdom of glass ’til it breaks

Sartorial Strut
04:03
|
|||
My unhealthy obsession with things that change
Looks like it’s here to stay
More average than most
More butter than toast
I should probably call my mother again
I can bother my banjo about the state of the world
But I’d drop my own dinner for a look from a girl
And I’ve never been as taken by the flavors I try
As I am by the scent of your stare
So shiver me
Quiver me
Dip into the river me
I’m old enough to know better
Not too old to care
Slither me
Come hither me
Take this sweet delivery
Sorry if we mess up your hair
We’re a stable full of jokers drinking one eyed jack
Our most noble intentions we forgot in the back
The art on the walls is moving in twos
As the barman keeps shaking whatever shakers we choose
The smoke in your eye leaves me clutching my pearls
But your eyes on the prize is the breath of my world
Our sartorial strut as we move to the tunes
Mixes the red of your whisper into the grunt of my blues
So shiver me
Quiver me
Dip into the river me
I’m old enough to know better
Not too old to care
Slither me
Deliver me
Take me to the river, see
Oh we’re gonna mess up your hair
We’re a stable full of jokers drinking one eyed jack
She says her noble intentions she forgot in the back
So shiver me
Quiver me
Dip into the river me
I’m old enough to know better
Not too old to care
Slither me
Come hither me
Take this sweet delivery
Oh we gonna mess up your hair

Seven Seas
06:31
|

Hey won’t you stay with me please
You roll like the ocean and catch me in the breeze
You rock me gently
And I want to roll as I ride your seven seas
Here’s me moving up and down
How do you untie me with your mind
You cast off this shell and float this good design
I’m your sailor, you see
And I was born to ride your seven seas
Here’s me moving up and down
I see your waves crashing around
Batten down the hatches we’re going for a ride
Two by two baby say hey hey hey hey
I’m a drunken sailor and you’re my honey wine
On your able body I ride hey hey hey
Ooo the wind and weather is dangerous
But you and I we float like the best
And in this I believe
I want to drink you in a drown in your seven seas
Here’s me moving up and down
I see your waves crashing around
Batten down the hatches we’re going for a ride
Two by two baby say hey hey hey hey
I’m a drunken sailor and you’re my honey wine
On your able body I ride hey hey hey
Oooo oh oh oh
I breathe it out again
Say ooooo oh oh oh
‘Cause here’s me
So right with you
And I can feel the sun in your curls
I find your face in my mountainous dreams
I love being here and moving
Batten down the hatches we’re going for a ride
Two by two baby say hey hey hey hey
I’m a drunken sailor and you’re my honey wine
On your able body I ride hey hey

Eye of the Storm
07:57
|
|||
Waiting in the wings
Lost in the moment still as a stone
A feeling of calm like I just came home
The noise fades away and we are alone
When you meet me in the middle of the eye of the storm
The bustle falls hush like the dawn of a play
A scene that's been brewing since my first day
I smile calm as my legs give way
When you meet me in the middle of the eye of the storm
So easy to see that this is the way
As clear as the words we were born to say:
Nice to meet you let’s go spend the rest of our days
dancing in the middle of the eye of the storm
With mornings so good we make ourselves late
We'll bury old bones and learn from mistakes
And laugh under covers like we’re dancing on graves
Making monkey in the middle of the eye of the storm
Making monkey in the middle of the eye of the storm
Waiting in the wings
Lost in the moment still as a stone
A feeling of calm like I just came home
The noise fades away and we are alone
When you meet me in the middle of the eye of the storm
Come and meet me in the middle of the eye of the storm
