To take in the warmth we
Sat drinking iced tea
In ‘Malaysian Blues’
Secure is the secret
That’s passed in the corridor
An invitation
To meet me at the soirée
In the stately home
Where young man Billy
Turns to old man William
A present passed in the future
From a province near Tokyo
His name was Hiro
And he left me this song
His strong influence shows
He knows what I know
I know there’s nothing wrong
And like the leaves longing
To kiss the silent stream
Moving nowhere in the breeze
Come with me
Together we can break free
No one knows what the future holds
But the thought’s not leaving me
Inside
I hear it screaming out loud
Broken hearts have the strongest souls
Lessons learned about life
You said you missed the boat but you didn’t try
Fading in the half-light
You said you missed the boat but you didn’t try
So many people think that
Change will come their way
But the same people fail to go their own way
Leaving change for the dreamers

Airwaves (We See)

We see the airwaves
Down with salvation
Come in the airwaves
Drop a bucket or two
In my garden
Chase summertime shadows
Could you be my
Letter unopened
In the salt water, or in the sun?
We see the airwaves
Down with salvation
Come in the airwaves
Drop a bucket or two
In my garden
Chase summertime shadows

The Downpour

Your eyes are almond
Hazelnut inside
And what they say don’t matter
What they say don’t matter
My voyage outside
See me sit by the window
To perceive like Rachel
Only heeding peace
Caught in a trap
And little by little
There’s water running over
The trap
No feeling like this one
Silent exploration
In the downpour
In the downpour
In the downpour
What they say don’t matter
Living to dream
Under the tree
You were smiling
The love unfolded
Joining, beginning
Something so offbeat
Caught in a trap
And little by little
There’s water running over
The trap
Don’t it hurt to feel cried on
Having to keep your love silent
Don’t it hurt to feel cried on
No feeling like this one
Silent exploration
In the downpour
In the downpour
In the downpour
What they say don’t matter

The Hippies Lied
05:18
|
|||
|
Home, home to my good friends
Surrounded by deities
Freeze
It’s not where we’re going
But how the hell to get there
Fade this way in
Good times without sin?
You question my intention
It was you who taught me
Paul Theroux was right
The hippies, they all lied
Cocooned in black and white
Butterfly
Colour strobe in my eye
A little piece of mind
You sold out
To the city crowd
You sold out to me
An insoluble mystery
But I feel bound to feel sublime
It’s all down to me
Former hippies lied
Behind their suits will hide
Fade this way out
The white sands of the bay
Where things are left unspoken
And feeling’s equalised
No bouncers deciding
Who can come in
I think I’ll be fine

Burning Blue
02:33
|

|
Nobody needed to tell me
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Nobody needed to tell me
The mental notes were burning
By the witches cauldron
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
People will always judge you
Due to what you consume
To include you must exclude
To breathe in, you must breathe
Into a void of glory
Out of bounds, unholy

Don’t Let go
03:15
|
|||
|
Girl, don’t let go
Girl, you never needed someone
You see, like me
And if you ever needed someone
You could write me
Burning blue
Girl, don’t let go again
Girl, you never needed someone
You see, like me
And if you ever needed someone
You could write me
We can still light fires in
The high wind
