i’m hungry, i’m tired, i’m restless and out of it and lonely, and wired, just useless, and sick of it so i stand here, just standing just waiting for something new to come in, to enter, to happen to burn me through to feel it, to touch it, to taste it is what i need this feeling, some healing, or reeling inside of me defeat me, completely, release me another place no thinking, no thinking, no thinking, no just some grace all i want to do is walk into this world with you so tell me tell me what you see is there a heart inside of me? to feel it, to touch it, to taste it to keep her near to see her, to know her, to face her to hold so clear the meaning, the meaning, the meaning the meaning of this one unique, complete indescribable love heaven feel it deep inside heaven burning in our eyes sundown long day wear your hair down wear your hair that way sad times dissolving into bliss heaven, in your kiss sundown long day two hearts flying away and away and away sky dark dream state heaven wide alive, wide awake heaven heaven heaven wears your face
2.	In Danger 04:29	lyrics	buy track
is she in danger of touching me i want to change her i want to see what i am and what i need and the words in my dream what she says and what she sees and the worlds in between is she in danger of wanting me she’s just a stranger she’s haunting me what i know and what i feel and the things that won’t heal i want to know what it is and what she needs and the things she might steal oh i’m in danger what she says and what she sees and the song in my dream what i am and what i need and the worlds in between what she is and what she knows and all the things she won’t show yes i’m in danger don’t touch me don’t touch her love please touch me

ask me why the sky's so strange today ask me why the wind has blown away ask me why the birds fly upside down whenever you're around ask me why the night is green and blue ask me why my deepest dream came true ask me why this summer came so soon howling into June howling at the moon several times i changed my mind several lives i left behind several things i could never sing but your eyes those eyes… ask me why the sky's so weird today ask me why this feeling came to stay ask me why i love you and i'll say well it's such a rainy day pouring down in June and we're dancing on the moon
4.	Ring the Bells! 04:33	lyrics	buy track
not a single word not a single sound around not a day goes by where i can see the sky so high so i push myself into the night but i’m deaf and dumb and i can hardly see i’m darkness pretending to be light nobody makes a monkey out of me i don’t have the time to sit around and whine oh woe is me i can hardly wait, i won’t hesitate and i won’t ever sleep ‘cause her breathing’s like a symphony i was deaf and dumb and blind but now i see there’s something happening to me i’m hearing bells, i’m hearing bells… DING! DANG! DONG! all night long my baby’s ringing bells inside of me DING! DANG! DONG! sings the song ring the bells! ring the bells! ring the bells! dans la pluie, la nuit, la pluie de ma vie dans la nuit, ci-git Paris dans le temps que l’on prend de plonger dans le vent je plonge dans le sang de ma vie well i’ll never speak such crap again my monkey made a baby out of me no i’ll never feel that way again ‘cause my baby made a monkey out of me she really made a monkey out of me… DING! DANG! DONG! go my cells she’s busy ringing bells inside of me DING! DANG! DONG! my heart yells ring the bells! ring the bells! ring the bells! DING! DANG! DONG! all night long all my cells ring like bells inside of me DING! DANG! DONG! sings the song ring the bells! ring the bells! ring the bells!

here comes my baby, here comes my bride here come the feelings i’m feeling inside love and emotion so deep and so wide here comes my baby, here comes my bride here comes a new life, here comes a prize here come the feelings once locked up inside love and emotions come pour from my eyes here comes my new life, here comes my bride i can’t believe what’s been happening to me see under: love see under: V love is a spaceship, love is a dream love is a film clip, love is a screen love is a mountain, of perilous height love is a fountain that pours through the heart of the night love is a painting, love is the wall love’s hesitating out in the hall love is a rocket, love is a kite love is her face that shines through the heart of the night i can’t believe what’s been happening to me see under: love see under: V… love is no ceiling, love is no floor love is a doorway without a door love is a feeling so strange and so true love is the music that plays deep in you love is a garden, love is delight love is the evening, love is the light love is the darkness, sparkling and bright love is the heart of the heart of the heart of the night love is the heart of the heart of the heart of the night love is the heart of the heart of the heart of the light
6.	Summer's Here 04:39	lyrics	buy track
what was that song, i’ve forgotten you know the one by Johnny Rotten in the park along the Hudson river dark and sweet and sudden it’s time it’s here another time, another story a different life now stands before me she the feeling hurts inside my body the feeling sings she belongs to me well it’s very clear summertime is here summer’s here and no denying it close your eyes and move inside it the night is rich and deep and swollen the night’s alive and we have broken in drop the words, drop all the meanings drop your clothes into the evening light the moonlight falls upon your body and night dissolves into the dawn of time well it’s very clear love is finally here what was that song I’ve forgotten you know, the one by Johnny Rotten? it’s half the time, twice the distance between the lines of least resistance half the time, twice the distance between the lines…
7.	Fields of the Sun 04:01	lyrics	buy track
out of the darkness out in the night though i have often been wrong deep in my blindness i saw this light out of the emptiness there was a… there came a… song in my head when i lay down to bed trying to forget the day i can't be clear what i started to hear i always doubt things that way a sound so beautiful wild and beautiful shaking and waking what i always knew old things forgotten they’ll soon turn rotten but what is true is always true and always new but i felt alone i was stuck on the phone trying too hard to get through just barely alive until five forty-five and that's what time i met you that was the day i met you so touch me my darling drink from this darkness dare you to not run away flood me your lightning flood me your tenderness touch me and know me and show me the day and the way that i was and the things that i feared i was the man on the run i can't be clear what i'm even doing here but i want to run on the fields of your sun i want to run on your sun baby let’s run on the sun
8.	The Marrow 02:52	lyrics	buy track
for days and lives i did wander alone ‘neath broken skies and cold as stone until the time when my poor heart lost its mind to find the marrow of your bones what would it be like not to ever have known not seen that light so wild and pure and strong i don't care, i don't ever want to know i love the marrow of your bones sailing, sailing, we’re sailing out to sea sailing, sailing, on wings of mystery come the hail, come the arrows and stones i love you to the marrow of your bones so here we are at last, under this canopy of love free from all the past, flying high, flying fast above hand in hand, along the narrow road to home that leads to the marrow of the bone yes i love the very marrow of your bones
9.	Viviane 03:44	lyrics	buy track
said my heart to the sky to the wind to her eye viviane be mine olive trees melodies and the crease in her knees viviane she’s my strawberry sun viviane viviane half human and half divine half of water, half of wine viviane we’re drinking some deep summer sun let it flow let it run let it go let it come viviane viviane viviane viviane all at once and all the time all human and all divine viviane she is mine viviane i thank the sun she is mine

about

Marc Farre Sebastopol, California

“In the company of European-influenced musicians like Leonard Cohen, Lou Reed, and Nick Cave. A throaty voice, highly poetic lyrics and a kinetic band behind him. Compelling.”
