Sunday Morning

Sunday Morning and I'm feeling fine
Spring is early this year
The river's running and the earth is softening
I can't believe it's really here
And I almost called you just to say....
It's Sunday morning and the geese are back again
I remember weeping in the fall as I watched them go
I hear them calling
And I can't help but wonder why we miss them so
And I almost called you just to say....
It's Sunday morning when my heart is softer
And my tears are closer to my eyes
Sunday morning when the hope for peace is stronger
And our prayers are lifted to the skies
And I almost called you just to say....
What would I say
What could I say to you, tell me
What are those words that I could say to you
That could cut the distance
And melt the coldness
And break through the silence we have found
Sunday morning and I'm gazing upwards
And my hands are lifted to the sky
Sunday morning and my prayers are rising
Prayers are rising
And I almost called you
I almost called you
I almost called you but I don't know what I would say.

Are You Here?
04:01
|
|||
When I wake up
Sun shining on me
I feel its warmth around me and I feel you there
When I lay down
Moon high above me
I feel its softness on me and I feel you there
But are you here in the greyness of the day
And are you here in the brown leaves still clinging to the trees
Are you here
I always feel you in the wind
It whispers your embrace
I stand amidst its fury and I feel you
But even now the wind betrays me
There's coldness in its fingers
It rushes through me I can't feel
And are you here in the greyness of the day
And are you here in the brown leaves still clinging to the trees
Are you here
And I'd almost given up my quest for you
And I fall to my knees and surrender to the cold
But then I see a brown leaf dancing on the breeze
It's not fallen yet
Lord it's holding on
And you are here in the greyness of the day
And you are here in the brown leaves still clinging to the trees
You are here
I know you're here

Hush My Dear
03:55
|
|||
Hush my dear lie still 'till the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Hush my dear no tears in the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Snow turns to rain
And though the sky is not clear
In the day the mist surrounds us
So hush my dear no tears in the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Hush my dear we will laugh in the morning
Hush me dear lie still
In the day we will walk hand in hand by the water
In the day I'll see light in your eyes
So let the warmth of my arms
And the beat of my heart hold you here
'Till the morning
So hush my dear no fear of the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Hush my dear we are here 'till the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Noise and smells and chaos surround us
Circling and aiming to harm us
Circling and rising and falling like the water
So hush my dear we are 'till the morning
Hush my dear lie still
Hush my dear I am here 'till the morning
Hush my dear lie still

Those Who've Loved Me
05:04
|
|||
When there's nothing left to say
And you're standing there in front of me
And I don't know how to be
I just never know what you want from me
And I can't find the words to hide behind
When there's nothing left to tell
Just a final glance and I wish you well
And I don't how to stand
The ground is crumbling beneath me
And I can't seem to stay inside myself
But I hold on to the people who have loved me
And I find hope when I remember the people who love me
When there's nothing left to do
Just find the will to walk away from you
And I don't know how to move
And I don't know how to breathe
And I'm holding in my cry
No I won't cry for you anymore
But I hold on to the people who have loved me
And I find hope when I remember the people who love me
'Cause for every person who drives me crazy
There's another ten that I look up to
And for every person who scars my heart
There's another ten to break my fall
And I hold on to the people who have loved me
And I find hope when I remember the people who love me
And I hold on to the people who have loved me
And I find hope when I remember the people who love me
And you loved me

HEY HEY
02:33
|

Hey Hey what do you say
If we just don't show up today
Do you think they'll notice if we're hiding
Hey Hey what do you know
I've got some songs to show
So pour the coffee and pour the wine
Let's just stay in
It's been too long since I've been playing
It's been too long since you were staying
There's something missing in my soul
So you better get comfy now
'Cause we're in for the long haul now
Sing to me when the lights are low
Hey Hey what's that song
Would you mind if I played along
I might forget the words but I know how to sing it
Yeah I know how to sing it
It's been too long since I've been playing
It's been too long since you were staying
There's something missing in my soul
So you better get comfy now
'Cause we're in for the long haul now
Sing to me when the lights are low
And when you sing it out
The world just melts away
And when you play with me
Just play with me
Hey Hey I gotta go
See the rest of the world you know
But in my head I'm beside you playing
So keep on playing
Hey Hey what do you say
Hey Hey what do you know
Hey Hey I gotta go

Here I Am Again
03:22
|

Here I am again
Homemade wine in the silence of the night
Facing forwards, gazing backwards again
With trembling toes I gather myself for the right
Now the leaves are changing
Geese are gathering again
And I watch them as the fade away and disappear
And leave me here
Here I am again, always waiting
For something I can't even name
Still I'm holding on and battling myself
With trembling heart I gather myself all the same
Now the leaves are changing
Geese are gathering again
And I watch them as they fade away and disappear
And leave me here
Just leave me here

Lay Your Head Down
06:25
|

Lay your head down Mother
Lay your head down my friend
One last whisper to the heavens, Ave
Then lay your head down
The room is quiet but noise creeps in from the hall
Laughter blasting onto silent ears
There's no ghost here, no lingering longing
Why are the walls so white
Lay your head down Mother
Lay your head down my friend
One last whisper to the heavens, Ave
Then lay your head down
In the silence I try to swallow every tear
But you're so lovely tears sneak up on me
I am weeping but don't shed a tear for me
Just enter arms wide open
And hold your little girl from 1929
Hold that little girl who's ever on your mind
Hold that little girl from 1929
Or will she hold you
Lay your head down Mother
Lay your head down my friend
One last whisper to the heavens, Ave
Then lay your head down
Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum
Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus
Et benedictus fructus ventris
Ventris tuae, Jesus.
Ave Maria
Lay your head down Mother
Lay your head down my friend
One last whisper to the heavens, Amen
Then lay your head down

I'm Not Broken
05:02
|
|||
I am weary
I have grown accustomed to
This feeling in my eyes
And face and heart
I am waiting
Every praying
For a guiding light
In front of my two feet
So I open up my hands
And try to hold the warmth of the sun
And I watch it on my fingers
And I finally understand
I have found the strength I've been longing for
On my knees
I'm not broken
I am driving
I see her running
The panic in her eyes
Reflect the sky of grey
I see him standing there
He turns his back to her
Still she's running on
To claim what he has hold of
So I open up my hands
And try to hold the warmth of the sun
And I watch it on my fingers
And I finally understand
I have found the strength I've been longing for
On my knees
I'm not broken
I'm not broken
One last look to the sky
To a blue I can hardly recognize
And I wonder
Does that blue reflect my eyes
So I open up my hands
And try to hold the warmth of the sun
And I watch it on my fingers
And I finally understand
I have found the strength I've been longing for
On my knees
I'm not broken

The Sky Opened Up to Me
04:36
|
|||
I went to find you
My heart was heavy
Could you feel it
In your heart so real
And all-encompassing
Were you heavy too
My footsteps thunder
And they rattle through my bones
On the frozen barren ground
My heart is racing
And my tears freeze to my skin
I need to find you
And then the sky opened up to me
Brown was gold and they grey turned to light
When the sky opened up to me
Through the clouds the sun shone bright
So many questions
Pulsing through my blood
And all the answers are concealed
How much longer 'till I finally break
How much longer 'till I find you
And then the sky opened up to me
Brown was gold and the grey turned to light
When the sky opened up to me
Through the clouds the sun shone bright
Through the clouds the sun shone bright
I'm always racing
Full force into you
And here I'm crashing to a halt
And as I stand here
In the silence and the cold
I feel warmth creeping up my spine
And then the sky opened up to me
Brown was gold and the grey turned to light
When the sky opened up to me
Through the clouds the sun shone bright
Through the clouds

Let the Music In
05:02
|
|||
Lost in the melody again
So deep you dream in black and white
Caught in the rhythm and it's pounding
But the song is strange and you can't find it
Let it rise in you
Let it settle now
Let it fill this place
Let the music in
It was a risk to take
It was wine untasted
It was such a ride with never peace in mind
Only hope for better
Let it rise in you
Let it settle now
Let it fill this place
Let the music in
Let it rise in you
Let it settle now
Let it fill this place
Let it rise in you
Let it settle now
Let it fill this place
Let the music in
