One of these days, spirit true
I know I’m gonna know you
The endless road I’ve been down
I’m still pining for that lonesome sound
‘Cause one of these days, one of these dark days
I know I’m gonna know you
But oh! I’m afraid
The hour’s getting late
Oh you, spirit true
I’ll wait for you
Now I confess, I feel alone
Lit up in blue by these things that I own
Speak in tongues now, or tell me straight
Tell me, how long do I have to wait?
‘Cause one of these days, one of these dark days
I know I’m gonna know you
But oh! I’m afraid
The hour’s getting late
How long should I wait?
Tell me straight
Oh! I’m afraid
The hour’s getting late
Oh you, spirit true
I’ll wait for you

Much Too Late

It’s too late
To die in honest dirt
Your little world so full of hurt
Some get small, others rush and run
Surely you knew this day would come
So for now, let me be straight
You brought this fate on your own
On your own
It’s a little too late
To pretend you understand
How to get to that promised land
You might fool yourself
But there’s a strong trend
Nobody outruns the end
So for now, let me be straight
You bought this faith on your own
On your own
It's much too late
To fill a vacant heart
Your little world falling apart
It's too late
To die in honest dirt
Your little world so full of hurt

Dreamer

I found you in the stillness of a dream
I said, hold on to me
I was a traveler, in between
Hold on to me
We leaned on each other for years
In the darkness we hid our tears
Don’t look forward, don’t look back
The perfect shape to fill our lack
Patterns that we meant to break
Hold on, hold on to me
Why be wary of a heart that aches?
You gave more than I could ever take
Our shadows grow so long
In the crooked light before dawn
Colors fade in your eyes
The dimming of a dream in time
Lost time
Hold on to me
I’m only dreaming my dreams

Big passenger
Come rolling down the track
Big passenger
Come rolling down the track
Well I’m going to see the king
I ain’t never coming back
They call me Jack the Bear
Yeah I was a site to see
Well they call me Jack the Bear
And they wouldn’t stop following me
Tilapia on my breath
Now I’m lying at the bottom of the Salton Sea
My house is shaking
In the valley low
Yeah my house is shaking
I can feel it rumble
When that river rises, boys
Oh, I can feel that stone drum roll

There’s a place I have known
Where the trees are overgrown
The air is wild, the river rolls
When you get there, your mind goes
Jumpin’, a little skipping, a little bumpin in the night
There’s a light I have seen
Creeps into your room when you dream
And it glows a purple hue
Up on high like a jewel
Jumpin’, a little skipping, a little bumpin’ in the night
Let’s walk
Along that busted road
Where it goes
Nobody knows
There’s a song you might hear
It’ll make you weep private tears
Nobody dreams like I do
Nobody knows nothing about you
Let’s walk
Before the daylight shows
Haunted like a crow
A spun out double rose
Behind the poor moon
Where nobody knows

Wolves
03:59
|

When the sun goes down behind the trees
And you’re all alone, where you gonna be?
When those wolves come to your doorstep
Are you gonna roll with them?
Or you gonna roll with me?
You’ve been wasting precious time
In the shadows of your worried mind
If you want to ride that endless highway
You’ve got to leave this world for a little while
I’ve been thinking about that road
Wondering how far it goes
You got to fall up, in your head
You got to fall up, that’s what you said
Did you read it in your tea leaves?
Did they tell you how to be free?
I’ve been drinking with my little rose
Wondering how far we'll go
You got to fall up
When the sun goes down
You got to fall up
Well I gotta go downtown
I got to feel that darkness around me
Oh evening star, shine on me
I can smell the jasmine on the breeze
I’ve been dreaming in the summer heat
Thoughts of falling endlessly
You got to fall up in your head
you got to fall up i think that’s what you said
Oh when those wolves come to my doorstep
I gotta know, you gonna roll with me?

Love is Long
04:42
|

In the valley of fear
Flows a river of blood
And the silence behind it
Is the wake of the flood
Our voices will carry
Over waves of sound
We’ll rise like the moon
Our minds unbound
On and on
Do you know this song?
Love is long
Do you want to leave here?
Hold on to me
I traveled to find you
Through the hallways of dreams
I’ll be the mountain
You be the road
Together we’ll carry
This heavy load
It goes on and on
On and on
I know this song
Love is long
