MY HEAD SWIMMING WITH THOUGHTS 

 

MY EARS FILLED WITH A RESTLESS SEA

 

CRASHING IN CLOSE TO ME

 

WINTER SPEAKS LOUD AND CLEAR

 

GRAY SKIES COMING DOWN

 

I TURN TO YOU

 

TO RAISE MY SPIRIT 

WELL ABOVE AND BEYOND IT

WHERE SUMMER BREEZE STILL SOFTLY BLOWS

A FLEETING EMBRACE

IS ALL YOUR ALLOWED 

MOVING THROUGH A SPACE IN TIME

LIKE THESE CLOUDS SLOWLY PASSING BY

DAY JUST LIKE NIGHT

WINTER MOON

OUTSHINES THE SUN

THE FOREST SPENT AND STILL

A LONELY FEELING

A CHILL

I FEEL YOU HOLD ON

JUST A LITTLE BIT TIGHTER

CLOSER TO ME

FALLING TO

FALLING UNDER A SPELL

TIRED AND SLOW

WINTER MOON

 

 I KNOW TO BLAME

 

ON AND MORE THE SAME

 

 

 

ITS JUST YOU

 

THAT SAVES ME

 

YOU KEEP MY HEART AND HOME

 

YOU KEEP ME GOING

 

DON'T YOU FALL TO FAR FROM ME

 

YOU KNOW LOVE SHOWS

 

FROM TIME TO TIME

 

DAY TO DAY

 

ANYWAY TIME ALLOWS

 

 

DEEP IN FOREST GREEN

 

AND EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN 

 

JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE THERE

 

A FLEETING EMBRACE

 

IS ALL YOUR ALLOWED

 

MOVING THROUGH SPACE AND TIME

 

LIKE THESE CLOUDS SLOWLY PASSING BY

 

DAY JUST LIKE NIGHT

 

WINTER MOON

 

OUTSHINES THE SUN 

 

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

THROUGH THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT

 

RESTLESS SPIRIT DRIVE

 

STRAIGHT THROUGH

 

YOU LINGER IN MY DREAMS

 

MAYBE I'M IN A HURRY

 

TO TASTE YOUR LOVE

 

ALL THESE STARS

 

REMIND ME OF YOU

 

SHINE AND, MAKE FOR YOU

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

 

A STORY YOU JUST, CAN'T PUT DOWN

 

 

I SEE YOU WAITING

 

THE SUN IS RISING

 

DIAMONDS, IN GOLDEN LIGHT

 

IF I LOOK AWAY

 

I'M AFRAID YOU MIGHT

 

DISAPPEAR  

AN APPARITION

A THOUGHT AS I GET NEAR

TREES GO PASSING BY

 

CATCHING THE EARLY LIGHT OF DAWN

 

ALL THE SWEETNESS OF THE MORNING

 

LIES WITH YOU

 

THE MYSTERY THE WAITING

 

TOO MUCH TIME TO THINK

 

SEE WHERE ALL THIS LEADS TO

 

JUST BECAUSE WE WERE MEANT TO

 

 

FINALLY THERE YOU ARE

 

WAITING AT THE DOOR

 

A VISION COMPLETE

 

NEVER A NEED STRONGER

 

LIFE WOULD LAST FOREVER

 

JUST THINK WHAT WE COULD DO

 

ALL THIS LOVE

 

JUST A START

 

YOU CAPTURE MY IMAGINATION

 

YOU OWN MY HEART

 

JUST WHEN I THOUGHT

 

I'D NEVER SEE

 

A BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

 

YOU APPEARED

 

LIKE THE FIRST STAR IN THE SKY

 

THE REASON IS ABUNDANTLY CLEAR

 

WE BOTH KNOW WHY

 

PROVIDENCE EMBRACED US

 

LIFTED US TO HIGHER GROUND

 

GATHERED UP THE LOVE

 

 WE FOUND

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SUNRISE ALL ALONE

 

SUNRISE ALL ALONE

RAIN FALLING

 

TURNING INTO SNOW

 

SITTING HERE

 

WATCHING YOU GO

 

SADNESS IN MY HEART

 

ALREADY STARTING

 

YOU KNOW I WISH YOU WELL

 

SO MANY STORIES

 

WHO DO I TELL

 

WHO DO I SING TO

 

IF NOT YOU

 

ITS A LONG WAY FROM HERE

 

TO SOMEONE NEW

 

AND IF AT ALL

 

THERE'S NO ONE TO CALL

 

 

 

HEY ALL OF THIS DESPAIR

 

WAKING UP AND FINDING

 

YOU NOT THERE

 

THE SUNRISE ALL ALONE 

 

JUST LIKE I RIDE

 

A  HORSE UNDER ME

 

AND ONE AT ITS SIDE

 

I HAVE TO TAKE IT

 

ONE DAY AT A TIME

 

TRY TO HIDE THIS

 

 LONELY HEART OF MINE 

 

FIND SOME JOY

 

A HAPPY SIDE

 

TIL DARKNESS OVERTAKES

 

THE SETTING SUN

 

 

 

SITTING BY THE FIRE ON THIS NIGHT

 

MOONSHINE ON THE SNOW 

 

SPARKS FLY INTO AN UNSETTLED SKY

 

HITS ME

 

SINKS  IN ALL  AT ONCE

 

ALONE

 

JUST LIKE BEFORE

 

LOVE FOUND ME

 

WORKED ITS WAY INSIDE

 

I'M NOT SURE

 

WHAT THIS IS I FEEL

 

HOW COULD I HAVE KNOWN

 

IT WASN'T REAL

 

SOMETHING APART FROM LOVE

 

JUST LIKE I RIDE

 

A HORSE UNDER ME

 

AND ONE AT ITS SIDE

 

I HAVE TO TAKE THIS

 

ONE DAY AT A TIME

 

TRY TO HIDE THIS

 

LONELY HEART OF MINE

EACH TIME I REACH FOR YOU

 

I REVEAL A LITTLE MORE

 

SOMETIMES I'M OVER CONFIDENT 

 

OTHER TIMES I'M NOT SURE

 

I SEE YOUR EYES

 

PLEADING TO TAKE YOUR LEAD

 

KILL ALL THE DEMONS

 

THAT I SURELY FEED 

 

WHEN THE SKY IS BLACK AND TORN

THE DAYS ALREADY WORN ALMOST THROUGH

DIRTY GOLDEN LIGHT

ON CRYSTAL STREAMS

STARS THAT SHINE

PASSING BY

LEFT TO TIME THEY GLOW

 

SHINE ON YOU AND I

 

ITS NOT ENOUGH

 

JUST TO TRY

 

ITS NOT THE WHY

 

ITS THE WHEN

 

WHERE DID IT ALL BEGIN

 

LEAD TO AN END

 

JUST KEEP ON GOING FOREVER

 

TOGETHER, OUR LOVE IS STRONG

 

LEADS US AWAY TO BETTER THINGS

 

 

OOH YA, SHE SAID

 

THE SETTING SUN IS RED

 

I'LL JUST TRY TO SEE

 

TAKE THE TIME TO BE

 

EVERYTHING TO YOU

 

TAKE YOUR HEART

 

TO WHERE ITS NEVER BEEN

 

MIDNIGHT BLUE

 

STARS STRUNG OUT TO SHINE

 

DOWN ON ME AND YOU

 

YOU'VE GOT ME SURROUNDED

 

BY SOME KIND OF MAGIC 

I CAN'T LOOK AWAY

AND I DON'T MIND

I'VE GOT TO SAY

SOMEHOW I KNEW ALL ALONG

A RIVER OF FEELINGS FLOW

FOLLOW YOU

NO MATTER WHERE YOU GO

I JUST HAVE TO SAY

ITS MORE THAN I THOUGHT

I'D EVER KNOW

OOH YA SHE SAID

I CAN'T GET YOU

OUT OF MY HEAD

AND I DON'T WANT TO
