When I Was A Dreamer
01:17
|

When I was a dreamer, I’d dream of you
I was dreaming of a love so true
Along you came with all your grace
And kept my lonely dreaming at bay
And from our love, a garden did grow
To beds of roses that bloom in my soul
But when I awakened nobody remained
Alone, I was but dreaming again
A lonely dreamer, dreaming again

Birdsong
03:02

All the bitterness I’ve been saving for you
Spilling from my lips do you mind, do you
Know what I mean when I say
I don’t want to go back
Don’t want to go back
Don’t know if I can
Round and round I go heading nowhere slow
Dripping green and gold, dripping green and gold
And the birdsong rang out in the evening breeze
Calling me out, calling out to me
Tears in the dark they sang
Won’t get you far away
Won’t get you far away
Won’t get you far
Tears in the dark they sang
Won’t get you far away
Won’t get you far

Gentle Hand

I’ve been searching for the beauty in the corners of my mind
I’m looking for the beauty but it’s hard to find
I’d like to get to know you, I’d like to understand
Hold all this space between us with a gentle hand
Every beating, every moment fleeting
In that space between where we stand
We could try to know each other
How rare is that?
Here and now can you say you’re with me
With all your heart this could be our
This could be our chance for love
This could be our chance for love
This could be our chance for love
This could be our chance for love

Stranger, Still

You can take your time
I’ll be waiting on the other side
Forgive me if I’ve faltered, I never meant to be unkind
You see I’ve only touched upon the workings of the mind
To miss your worth, you must be blind
This world needs more of your kind
I’m standing here, I’m waiting by
For when you’re ready to feel alive
I’m standing here, I’m waiting by
For when you’re ready to feel alive

In The Dim Light
03:54
|
|||
|
Candles flicker, kick all the words from the page
I am trying to listen
Drifting further from this state
This is a safe place
Dance in the dim light, take time to rest
When no one’s home I’m at my best
Heavy steam rising from my fingers
Bones melting again
All I want, all I need
Is your warm embrace
Dance in the dim light, take time to rest
When no one’s home I’m at my best
Dance in the dim light
Dance in the dim light
Dance in the dim light
Dance in the dim light

Dead Bell
03:11
|
|||
|
Nobody can hear me now
I am dead bell, dead bell, unbound
Nobody will hear me out
I am dead bell, unwed, unwell
Nobody can hear me now
I am dead bell, dead bell, unwound
Nobody will hear me out
I am dead bell unwed, unwell
I am floating
I am floating
Unbound

Peach Lover

Peach lover in my dreams
You come to me
You call to me
Like a hunger never leaving me
Like a hunger never leaving me
Cheap favour, hard labour
How I long for the sweet nectar
Never want to be
The only one
The only one
The only one
The only one alone
Peach lover in my dreams
You come to me
You call to me
Like a hunger never leaving me
Like a hunger never leaving me
You call to me

Crystalline

Take a draw you’re feeling fine
The fears are fading, fears are fading
Leave this heavy world behind you’re fortified
Take a look into my eyes
Where do you hide, where do you hide
Behind the glassy gold disguise
A hint of my love, before he died
We can’t buy more time
Time is wasted on your smile
You try to hide the ghost inside
Who takes to my ear
Whispering white lies
We can’t but more time
We’ve run dry
My love he died
My love he died

Violet
03:41
|
|||
|
Find release with the wind in your eyes
Breeze them heavy, caress them dry
Rest your head on the clouds
Leave your mind behind
Softened in shades of violet
Heavy your heart no more, sweet child
Find release with the wind in your eyes
Breeze them heavy, caress them dry
Rest your head on the clouds
Leave your mind behind
Softened in shades of violet
Heavy your heart no more, sweet child

Still We Are Rising
05:22

Pale is the night, we’ve been out wading the water
Pale as we fight to float on the rising tide
Motionless I have forgotten how to move in my body
Fallen behind I have fallen behind again
Pale is the night, time passes by so slowly
Giving myself to the tide and however it moves in me
Light on the rise and slowly I’m rising back to my body
Light on the rise and still we are rising
So, the life we knew sails away, sails away on deep blue waters
From which we rise and slowly we’re rising
Hail in the light, hail in the light and still we are rising
Hail in the light, hail in the light and still we are rising
Still we are rising
Still we are rising
Still we are rising
Still we are rising
Still we are rising
Still we are rising
