As I Lay Dreaming
04:20
|

as i lay dreaming, deep in the deepness of night
dreaming, dreaming
flowers grew out of my eyes
hot sun, cool night, singing a song in disguise
reverse the moonlight
throw it back up to the skies
suddenly blazing, right there before my eyes
was a shape amazing
silver wings spread wide
(silent star, secret star, burning through the night)
singing, singing, flying all over my house
as i lay dreaming
flowers fell out of her mouth
heavenly night, heavenly light
flowing so wild all through this night
radiant screen, life is a dream
life is a silver scream
when evening gardens sing of the sweetness divine
singing, teaching
the birds are all speaking in rhyme
(silent star, secret star, burning through the night
fiery star, living star, hiding out in plain sight tonight)
then darkness was broken, and flowers fell out of the sky
broken wide open
and we're drinking the nectar of night
heavenly light, hold me so tight, hold me so close, all through the night
all through the scene, life is a scream, life is a silver dream
as i lay dreaming, singing a song in disguise
dreaming, dreaming
flowers grew out of my eyes

under the cloak of night
under the heavy light
under the bath of stars
under the song of mars
under a pilgrim sky
hundreds of years gone by
i lost my head i lost my bed
i lost the things we did and said
i lost the words i lost the song
so long…
under the pregnant light
the transfigured night
i lost the day i lost my way
i lost the things i used to say
i lost the time i lost the rhyme
i lost my mind
and i stand here today
beneath the infinite ray
and i am sighing, flying, trying
sighing, trying, dying
sighing, dying, flying
through the infinite night
good night...
good night...
i lost my head i lost my bed
i lost the things we did and said
i lost the day i lost my way
i lost the things i used to say
i lost the fall i lost the wall
i lost the call i lost it all
i lost the time i lost the rhyme
i lost my mind

World Gone Insane
02:14
|
|||
at last i am free
is this who i came here to be
at last i can see
what about me?
a world gone insane
running around in my brain
we’re drunk on the pain
that i can see
life is a blast
until you fall on your ass
at last i am free
oh really?
oh really?
but i can’t hide
and i can’t see
and i can’t lie
so what’ll i be this time
when the night
covers me
what’ll i do
what’ll i say this time
i’m alive
i am free
i am here
i am me

Night Song
06:44
|
|||
highway, highway at night
in the middle of my way
my way, all right
in the middle of time on
time on my side
in the middle of life
life is, life is a dream
in the middle of love song
love song supreme
in the middle of night
on the radio tonight
night song, night song inside
in the middle of life song
life song a ride
on the highway tonight
on the highway
< incantation >
the road, the signs on the road
the words on the signs on the road
the lights on the words on the signs on the road
the cars from the lights on the words on the signs on the road
driving home late across the state
thinking of you
one hand on my heart
one hand on the wheel
one hand on the dial
one hand on the night
thinking of you
driving home late
across the state
the window’s open, it’s very late
thinking of you
and the filling station man looks like a friend you used to know
you thought he was dead years ago
dead like a thing on the road
driving home late
across the state
thinking of you
highway, highway at night
in the middle of my way
my way, all right
and the taste of the night song
night song tonight
oh the taste of the night
on the highway tonight

Hey Is That You?
04:14
|
|||
hey, hey, hey is that you?
cause i mean it’s way, way, way overdue
everything is strange, strange, stranger than new
everything is different
hi, hi, how do you do?
i’ve been waiting ages, ages, ages for you
everything is different, different, different tonight
everything is shining…
what I see and what I do tonight
what I feel I feel for you tonight
in the distant distance, nearing it
all listen listen, hearing it
all I do and all I see
and i am you and you are me
high, high, high in the sky
ain’t there something wild, wild up there tonight
ain’t the stars all singing, singing, singing in tune
everything is dancing for you
hey, hey, hey is that you?
cause i mean it’s way, way, way overdue
everything is shining, shining, shiny and new
and i’m like a child, wild, flying to you

Before Morning
07:45
|
|||
I’m here long before morning
wide awake, three in the morning
I stand on the side of the highway
I see the lights in the distance
I’m here three in the morning
and i watch you
standing here, three in the morning
and i watch you, i watch you
last night i had the strangest dream
we were sleeping in a stream
in the silence of the day
in the steel beams by the bay
the last time, last time
the last time I change my mind
stories and sorrys and songs that
got left behind
all this heaviness tonight
breaking up before the light
I walk out on the highway
and i want you
I sit alone on the subway
and i want you, i want you
I ask a million questions
and i want you, and i want you
I make a million suggestions
and i want you, and i want you
I have a splitting headache
and i want you, yes i need you
I have a raging heartache
says i love you, yes i love you
all this heaviness and pain
wash away just like the rain
and the whisper in the trees
and the light that starts to
breathe

Piermont Lunaire
01:27
|
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.”
