1.	Off (free) 04:20	lyrics	download
Sundown Afternoon Golden hues abound Grey heaven overhead Taste of you and what she said Sipping Spring in bloom Wait for sailing in June Run my hands through her hair Smell perfume and the weather Truth buried under lies Thoughts I've tried to disguise For much too long Blue pen pal, it's you I tell Flower lapel, lapiz a papel Red light all around Searching for what can't be found He's on the way again Got myself into a tailspin And you came here in peace That's what threw me so far off
2.	Katie (free) 05:21	lyrics	download
The feeling of falling Grabs a hold of me fast And now that I've found it I want it to last I'm losing my stomach Can't see the ground I'm bouncing all over Like a spring unbound Gravity is pulling me Into the sea - Katie And days in the park The sun and sand Her love's like an ocean That won't let me land She makes me so happy I'm drowning in joy She moves me so easy Like a babe with a toy Gravity is pulling me Into the sea - Katie And what do have to offer? Nothing but my love for her And what of the future? And what of the past? I'm stuck in this moment And I want it to last Gravity is pulling me Into the sea - Katie
3.	Trapped (free) 02:24	lyrics	download
Blood bubbling She's thinking Of the best way to get out Can's rumbling Pressure sinking Won't be too long before we're Trapped - lost in space, place and time Beyond the suns we used to know I'm floating here, on my own Can't get control of my little craft Astronomer Pleasure seeking Sail silently past unknown virgin worlds Master alarm Something is wrong Won't be too long before we're Trapped - lost in space, place and time Beyond the suns you used to know I'm floating here, on my own Can't get control obliviously spinning Pure oxygen From lips akin To those I would steal air from on Earth Slow leaking Gut sinking Thought I was safe - but we're Trapped - lost in space, place and time Beyond the suns we used to know I'm floating here, on my own Can't get control of my little craft

5.	Cecelia Rose (free) 03:34	lyrics	download
Oh my Cecelia Rose Sounds so nice when you're talkin' so low Cut me down to my very soul That's why I love my Cecelia Rose All of your secrets I never will know Cross over bridges; it's you I follow Planted desire's seed, she watches it grow That's why I love my Cecelia Rose

7.	Another Reason Why (free) 04:49	lyrics	download
When she first caught me In her web of charms Break free I could not She's trapped me in her arms And I don't mind Playing your infatuation games It's just another reason why Stole them right from me Now blinded I shall be Guilded song bird singing Won't you share your nested tree? (with me?) And I don't mind Playing your infatuation games It's just another reason why I belong with you

9.	Point of View (free) 03:05	lyrics	download
Jan 8, 2011 They came by the thousands the wheels turning took them Some rich and some jobless Some learning from hard lessons And right on cue they formed a procession You wouldn't know they hadn't practiced before Is it time? Do we find ourselves feeling bored? What's in store this time? Each held up the 2nd Amendment And pointed straight at the moment they hated Superior - that's what we call ourselves Interiors filled up with hatred and spite Are we right? Are we right after all? Rise and fall with the tide And see what we can be Gabrielle lay down your flintlock and pistol The 8,000 strong will continue to prevail Now is the time to take back America Let me define - and right there's the problem When you confine just a few Breaks the whole meaning down No common ground No common point of view

11.	Bow On (free) 03:54	lyrics	download
Bows on water high Diamonds in the light Brace yourselves - she's comin' over! Ride on crest of foam Sea I call my own Wind is up, she's on the heel now Fck your gasoline We've got the dream machine Damn the warnings and the danger signs Cast off the bow lines! Daylight fading fast Let's pray the trades will last Port of call on all horizons Pelicans surround Flying 'round the sound Good luck charm - we'll take what we can get Fck your gasoline We've got the dream machine Damn the warnings and the danger signs Cast off the bow lines!
12.	Autumn (free) 04:14	lyrics	download
Tick-tock the clock is on the wall It's calling me to bed But I don't wanna hear it Click-clack the ice it hits the glass My cup is flowing full But I don't wanna drink it And I thought I knew it all I had it figured out But I guess I didn't And now my back's against the wall Tick-tock the clock is gonna fall While time it crushes me And the friends that I know best Don't always know what's best For me sometimes And the one I truly love Truly knows what love it really is It's waiting in the night Hiding in the dark Lights my way back home I'm not alone The leaves turn on the trees Changing you and me You and me Their colors come and go But I don't wanna know What makes them fall But trust in you and me Because you see the tree Is still alive We're so alive
