Im the water, you're the cup
Take a chance fill you up
You my cake, Im the plate
Goodness sake I cant wait
You’re the coffee, i'm the heat
Mix it up take it sweet
You're the river Im the frog
You're the moss Im the log
I gotta get to ya gotta to get you baby
I don't know how much more I can take
I gotta get to ya gotta to get you baby
I don't know how much more I can take
You're the dream, Im the sleep
You're the broom, Im the sweep
You're the fruit, Im the juice
You're the wild , Im the loose
You're the cat, Im the dog
You're the dusk, Im the dawn
You're the book, Im the test
You're the take , Im the get
I gotta get to ya gotta to get you baby
I don't know how much more I can take
I gotta get to ya gotta to get you baby
I don't know how much more I can take

Sensitive Bone
02:31
|

You don't gotta get bad to get good
You don't gotta get high to get low
I know you were born with a sensitive bone
And I know I was born a rolling stone
But that don’t mean you gotta go
You don't gotta go up to come down
You don’t gotta forget just to know
I know you were born with a thinking mind
and I know I was born with nothing to find
But that don’t mean you gotta go
You don’t gotta get wrong to get right
You don’t gotta go fast to go slow
I know you were born into hard times
And I know I was born to confusing signs
But that don’t mean you gotta go

Locked Down
03:47
|

I don't wanna be locked in locked down
I don't wanna be trapped in, tapped out
I'm tired of gettin stir crazy, I don't know what to do
I'm staring at my walls just thinking of you
There's a place today where you gotta pay to stay
While thinking of the mountainside and the rolling highways
You can get down low or be the highest around
But that won’t cure the blues from being locked down
I don't wanna be dull body, dull brained
I don't wanna be turning insane
I'm getting tired of bouncing from wall to wall
Trying to forget it or makes sense of it all
In time I can see you may just catch a break
But best you catch it before its too late
been the same ole game since we've been around
But that don't give no comfort when you're locked down

Sense
03:36
|
|||
I woke up this morning, like any other
A ray of light peered through my blinds
I couldn’t tell whether
It was me or you that was blind
So I stood up from my bed
Just to get morning going
I looked out into the road
Where I had once seen you gone
You weren’t there I couldn’t see
A trace of your existence
Maybe in time I’ll try to find
some kind of sense
See I had stood there waiting for my baby
Just waiting on her train
Now by the tracks I spent a long while pacing
Thinking I shouldn’t be doing this again
I heard the train a-whistling
All down the line
Some sort of distressing sound
to my woeful mind
I waited for the passengers to come out and live their lives
I looked wide I honed in and came to realize
My days grew long and I grew weak
From waiting all that time
The train turned on the coal burnt strong
As I questioned why
I wanted your tortured love
But still left up to chance
Maybe in time I’ll try to find
Some kind of sense

Ain't It Funny?
04:06
|
|||
I’ve been standing still, thinking and waiting
But you don’t care only cause you don’t know
My mind is weak from all this isolation
And my hands are sore from casting all these stones
I see your spirit dancing in the shadows
I feel the love i was too proud to have
I reckon your now with someone you can care for
Someone that ain't got a shred of who I am
Ain't it funny baby? don’t it make you laugh?
It rains all the time even when it doesn't
Nothing i say seems to sound like the truth
I'm stranded in a valley of cruel and unfair faces
With creatures that look nothing like you
But who cares anyway for things that have passed
It ain't like its ever coming back
Oh whenever you have a fleeting thought of me
Imagine I’m sleeping on a train on a long track
Ain't it funny baby? don’t it make you laugh?
I know It’ll be a long long time
Before I meet anyone like you
You’ve left the taste of expectation in my mouth
And now whatever I taste seems to taste like glue
But time tends to make one forget
All the qualities you had amassed
And I know that even though we were lovers once
Those memories are just things we outlast
Ain't it funny baby? don’t it make you laugh?

Corona, Lemme see my baby
Corona, Lemme see my baby
Its been so long since I seen her
And I don't know how long she can wait
Corona, Lemme see my baby
Corona, Lemme see my baby
Its been a long time since I had a kiss
And I just want her to know she's the one I miss
Corona, Lemme see my baby
Corona, Lemme see my baby
ohh i wanna see her

Don't Say A Word
02:58
|

Don’t say a word
It would just spoil the moment
Let the magic speak for itself
Don’t say a word
'cause anyway time will try and ruin it
As it likes to do to everything
Don’t say a thing my lovely
Don’t even say you love me
For now just come on close and close your eyes
And breathe slow my lovely
Reach out for my hands
And bring your lips close to mine
Don’t say a word
We don’t have the luxury of wasting a moment
On such silly things
Don’t say a word
Don't try and explain the feeling
We can't do it justice anyway
Don’t say a thing my lovely
Don’t even say you love me
For now just come on close and close your eyes
And breathe slow my lovely
Reach out for my hands
And bring those lips close to mine
Don't say a word

Brisk
04:18
|
|||
When the mood strikes
When the match lights
With the moon rises
When the sun lights
When the days long
When the winds strong
When the airs brisk
When the feelings mix
I think of you
When the times ripe
When the stomachs tight
When the legs are numb
When you need some
When the feeling burns
When the world turns
When the lights shine
When the stars align
I think of you

Sweet Thing
02:34
|
|||
Sweet thing I wake up with you on my mind
I cant tell what it is I'm feeling inside
I'm tingly in my toes, you know the way it goes
Im hazy in my head thinking of all the things you said
Sweet thing i get a little crazy when I hear you on the line
I cant tell if its fever or just desire
Im weak in the knees, you know just how that feels
Im light in my soul, I don't feel blue no more
Sweet Thing
But you ain't here and I ain't there
Gotta find a way to be alright
But its so hard when you're faced
With such a lovely sight
You got something I cant explain
I know i want you sweet thing

I wanna squeeze ya
I wanna hold ya
I wanna need ya
I want the whole ya
I wanna see ya
I wanna ache ya
I wanna feel ya
I wanna take ya
I wanna show ya
I wanna shake ya
I wanna know ya
I wanna grow ya
I wanna sleep ya
I wanna weep ya
I wanna live ya
I wanna forgive ya
I wanna anger ya
I wanna linger ya
I wanna give ya everything

Don’t Ya Get Down Too?
02:46
|
|||
I get a lonely feeling, when I decide I’m leaving
Everything behind, but I find
I still have you by my side
So I get down, I get down, I get blue
Tell me baby don’t you get down too?
When I’m trying to breath
Catching my breath don’t come with ease
I go looking for somebody to talk to
But I find nobody wants to
So I get down, I get down, I get blue
Tell me baby don’t you get down too?
If its on my mind babe then its on my tongue
Ive been right so many times I’m bound to be wrong
If thats the case then I guess I ain’t that strong
We’re looking for something thats long gone
So I get down, I get down, I get blue
Tell me baby don’t you get down too?
It ain’t you its me I hear them say
It ain’t easy to live or love this way
I know we’d both love to be cheek to cheek
Being together is starting to make us weak
So I get down, I get down, I get blue
Tell me baby don’t you get down too?
