Young Love on the Road
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
(I)
The wind blows on your face
I see your sharp jawline
as you stretch your hand
out of the car window
You close your eyelids
and I realize I’m not young anymore
but I see you
and I know what you’re doing to me
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
(II)
I see the naked collarbone
under a sinking moon
she’s sleeping in my arms
two of us in perfect bloom
and I forget to suffer
I realize I’ve loved too deeply now
do I need you?
I know what you’re doing to me
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
(III)
The dreamer disappears
she left her sad window
she’s dancing in the dark
crawling on hotel pillows
and I begin to suffer
I realize I’m lost too deeply now
how she wants me
and this young love on the road (yes she does)
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
Loving you
is all I really wanna do
Sea Wall
I’m walking in the midnight with you
my heart is chained inside your midnight blue
I’m walking in the midnight with you
my heart is chained inside your sea wall too
why does my heart beat like a rain dog, baby?
why does my life keep getting
better with you
all day long
could be
could be worst
I’m walking in the midnight with you
my heart is chained inside your sea wall too
I’m walking in the midnight with you
my heart is chained inside your midnight blue
why does my heart beat like a rain dog, baby?
why does my life keep getting
better with you
all year long
could be
could be worst
why does my heart beat like a rain dog, baby?
why does my life keep getting
better with you
all day long
could be
could be worst
Secrets to the Grave
She’s got a thousand kisses
in one hundred moods
she’s got a thousand kisses in a hundred moods
she’s got a million secrets
perfect crooked blues
she’s got a million secrets I’ll never knew
Secrets to the grave now
Secrets to the grave now
she’s got your afterhours
in her wall of rain
she’s got your afterhours
in her wall of rain
she’s got your guilty face
in her sleeping bag
she’s got your guilty face in her sleeping bag
take it to the grave now
blue moon in your eyes
secrets to the grave now
blue moon in your eyes
Secrets to the grave now
Blue moon in your eyes
secrets to the grave now
blue moon in your eyes
I Can Waste the Day
I can waste the day
with you by my side
I can waste the day
do nothing but hide
I dreamt of tomorrow
of how you loved me yesterday
I dreamt of yesterday
You said “I’ll find you tomorrow, sleeping on rainbows”
I can waste the day
til the sea fades to sky
I can waste the day
til your landlady dies
Two drank soju
fell in love
‘til the end of may
two drank soju
now their bed sheets, immaculate
sleeping on rainbows
blue moon on the pillows
long moving shadows
disappear
finally
empty
finally
sleeping
sleeping in your
blue
blue hair
blue
blue hair
blue
The Bed Sheets are Immaculate
Kneeling
looking up
holding your knees together on a blue day
Smiling
like an angel with a dirty face
drinking in beauty
in this purple noon
with your little claws
on my skin
my life is beautiful
once again
with your little claws
on my skin
in this hotel room
for ten lost days
I would have loved you
I would have loved you
Raining
cigarettes in the balcony
homeless and happy
together in the dawn
with your little claws
on my skin
my life is beautiful
once again
with your little claws
on my skin
in this hotel room
for ten lost days
I would have loved you
I would have loved you
Dreaming
two a.m. in a single bed
sleeping with beauty
the bed sheets are immaculate
with your little claws
on my skin
my life is beautiful
once again
with your little claws
on my skin
in this hotel room
for ten lost days
I would have loved you
I would have loved you
Walking on 19th Street
Fell in love with you
in your electric guitar
fell in love with you
in your septum piercing hanging
fell in love with you
when I dyed your blue hair darling
fell in love with you
fell in love with you
and your pink carnations hanging
fell in love with you
when you’re walking on 19th street
fell in love with you
in my recurring dream
fell in love with you
Oh how she kissed you then shy because
because
she’s never been yours
Oh how she kissed you then
shy because
because
she’s never been yours
Fell in love with you
in your electric guitar
fell in love with you
in your septum piercing hanging
fell in love with you
when you’re walking on 19th street
fell in love with you
fell in love with you
fell in love with you
Shades
You place my hand
on your chest
we hear your heartbeat
running around
I’m
looking at your
black eyelashes
I’ve not forgotten
how beautiful you are
Rain fell down in the afternoon
a kiss stolen in blue
only from you
I will spiral on these days
returning to haze
to be with you
I wear my shades down
in the afternoon
walk these streets with you
in the afternoon
wear my shades down
in the afternoon
to be with you
again
I am with you
again
I am with you
again
You place my hand on your chest
we hear your heartbeat running around
I’m
looking at your
black eyelashes
I’ve not forgotten how beautiful you are
Dusty Window
Vomiting on your shoulders
screaming on a rooftop
neon lights
reflecting on your windowpane
and your lips
tongue and cheek
tells me that
‘ I want you’
Under a wide and starry sky
nothing behind us
you felt
I could die
just right now
and reappear
in your dreams
in your memory
on your dusty window too
Oh lord
love me til tomorrow
show me time isn’t borrowed
the way I see it
we’re both lying
or don’t
want me in the morning
show me time isn’t learning
the way I see it
we both are
in your dreams
in your memory
on your dusty window too
Why does my mind
circle around you
when I’m all alone?
why does my mind
circle around you?
babe we are
in your dreams
in your memory
on your dusty window too
Planet Earth Feels Lonely
Planet earth feels lonely
I’m the only one
swimming on this sea
planet earth feels lonely
I need you
do you need me?
my heart is an open sea
I dreamt
I slept in your car
you were driving
some lonely highway
with a cigarette
in your mouth
what a dream..
was that a dream?
Planet earth feels lonely
I’m the only one
swimming on this beach
Planet earth feels lonely
I need you
do you need me?
my heart is an open sea
Sea Fades to Sky
Saw you in the corner of my mind
Saw you in a painting
Where the sea fades to sky
Saw you in the corner of my mind
Saw you in a blue dream
Where the sea fades to sky
Saw you in the corner of my mind
Saw you in a postcard
Where the sea fades to sky
Saw you in a blue dream in my mind
Swimming in the middle
Where the sea fades to sky
Goldfish Memory
Goldfish Memory
Have you forgotten
How it feels like
To be young again?
Have you forgotten
How it feels like
To be loved again?
Out of School
She sat smoking
Lost in blue
Blue as the ocean
Nothing to do
People Passing
We’re out of school
Nowhere my darling
I’m hanging with you again
Are you lost
Again?
Friday on my mind
Taking all my time
Knowing you’re leaving
I hang in the line
Seascape passing
We’re out of school
Nowhere my darling
I’m hanging with you again
Are you lost
Again?
Drown me on your river
Because in my mind
You’ll dance with me
til the end of the line
Blue river
to tanza
Pink carnation on your mind
She sat smoking
Lost in Blue
Blue as the river
Nothing to kill
Seascape passing
We’re out of school
Nowhere my darling
I’m hanging with you again
Are you lost
Again?
Girl in Kimono
She’s a wild thing
In a french maid strap
She’s a wild thing
In a heart-shaped swimming pool
She’s the wild one
That you keep on dreaming of
She’s a wild thing
Girl in kimono
I’m an old dog
Still hanging on your door
I’m and old dog
Looking for love
She’s a wild one
She’s a silk-gown maiden
She’s a wild one
in Monet’s sky
and I’ll kiss the past good-bye
but I’ll look for you, every other day
and I’ll follow you in a coma
but I won’t be there on your birthday
She’s wild thing
la-la-la-la-la
In the City, After Midnight
Shadows of two people
in the city
after midnight
when its blue outside
In the city
after midnight
til the dawn
I should be with you
Smoking on your window
in the city
after midnight
til its blue outside
In the city
after midnight
til the dawn
I should be with you
‘From the Rear View Mirror‘
A Love Like Yours
Looking at you
From the rear view mirror of this lost highway
Sunglasses, sleepy eyes
and your favorite nose ring
Well I really like your face
and I really like your mind
Yes I’m right here for your soul
But can a love like yours be mine?
Stolen kisses
Sleep psychosis, but I’m
Breathing on your fishnet stockings
Asking for love
No one’s listening
Because she’s
Jumping all over the bed
Well I really like your face
and I really like your mind
Yes I’m right here for your soul
But can a love like yours be mine?
Anywhere With You
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
What’s wrong
With madness?
That night
in an empty street
I held you
You’re the one with the big and beautiful dream
Hoping you don’t get stuck with me
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I can breathe again
My mouth rests on your neck
and I sleep
for the first time
Yes I sleep
for the first time
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
I’ll go
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you
Anywhere with you
Deep Sink
She kiss you
and your day begins
Now you want to be
Around her
Slash your wrists
You’ll see
If she wants you
Taste her tongue in your mouth
You’re in deep sink now
She’s looking at herself
In the mirror
She’s alone
On a quiet day
Does she stop to say
Yes, I want you?
Forget what you know
You’re in deep sink Now
I walk the streets in the midnight with you
Two of us in a parking lot
Like you loved me too
and in the naked light I saw the tip of your tongue
You said
“Only you know what you’ve become”
She kiss you
When your day is done
She’s got nothing to say
but she holds you
Now she stops
To say
Yes
I want you
Call this love
You’re in deep sink now
Recurring Dream
Darling
Do you remember
I loved you in the dead of the night
I know you
Like a recurring dream
In a hotel room window
Kissing
I met you in a terrible year
I loved in the midnight rain
Oh I want it all just the same
Darling
Do you remember
I loved you when you’re losing your mind
I know you
Like a recurring dream
Driving to the sea wall at night
and my days
revolved around you
and your days
revolved around me
what can I say?
its just a recurring dream
and your days
revolved around me
and my days
revolved around you
what can I say?
its just a recurring dream
Death of a Traveller
I
travel through the night
Thinking of the things
We could do tomorrow
What’s on the other side?
All I see mist
Mourn my departure
I’ve nowhere else to go
I’m just in time
To be where you want me
You
Sleeping on your bed
The golden garbage comes
Kissing you again
I want to end my life
but I am where you want me
Are you awake?
Are you awake?
Are you awake?
I love you
Are you awake?
Are you awake?
Are you awake?
I want you
Everybody else is complaining about their lives
Me and you, we’re eating cake at four a. m.
Everybody else is drowning in their own sorrow
Me and you, we kiss each other’s collarbone
Take Care of Our Dogs
Tied on a string
For a very long time
A love that’s mine
A love that’s mine
Old friends
Walking in the night
Hiding in the light
Sleeping in doorways
I’ll always be thinking of you
I’ll always be thinking of you
Songs from : ‘Water from the Creek’
Naked at Three
She’s a dreamer
She doesn’t sleep
A terrible liar
She doesn’t believe
She’s hanging onto
The sound of the sea
Out in the window
She’s naked at three
Not in control
What does solitude mean?
She’s walking a straight line
It’s harder to see
Mist in my eyes
And rain on my feet
Nowhere to run
She whispered to me
I’m just passing through
I’m just passing through
Troubles will find their way on your door
Your heart will remember
You’ve been here before
Carry the stones or crucify me
No one remembers
You’re naked at three
I’m just passing through
I’m just
dying too
Midnight Talk
Illustrated books
And friendly dogs
Sea vistas
Smiling faces of strangers
Big bright youth
Visual memory
Of Salty Lips
And Handwritten poems
Our train of thoughts
Coincide
Like you are dreaming with me
And your midnight talk
Is all I have
At the end of the day
Wine stains
On tablecloth
You hear the sound
The overflowing bathtub
Lacey underwear
In a dim-lit room
You feel the rain
Falling on the rooftop
And you taste it, so
You’re rushing fast
Like you got nothing to lose
And your midnight smoke
Is all I have
At the end of the day
Recurring Dream
Darling
Do you remember?
I loved you in the dead of the night
I know you
Like a recurring dream
In a hotel room window
Kissing
I met you in a terrible year
I loved you in the midnight rain
Oh I want it all Just the same
Darling
Do you remember?
I loved you when you’re losing your mind
I know you
Like a recurring dream
Driving to the sea wall at night
And my days
Revolve around you
And your days
Revolve around me
What can I say?
Its just a recurring dream
And your days
Revolve around me
And my days
Revolve around you
What can I say?
Its just a recurring dream
Two Weeks
I saw a vision of you
A portrait that I can remember
Mixed in colors of blue
Running so wild just to get there
All in a day
Leaving my sorrows completely
I see the ocean
Chained to the sky
You jumped from my window
And you said ‘Try’
I saw a vision of you
Two of us hiding in leather
You’re the waking light
Gone too soon
And I’m the only one who remembers
The house left empty
Two weeks of love at the beach
The wind blew her hair
The ropes that tie her are released
Don’t carry all the weight
Lean on my shoulder and hear me
Because I see a river
Mist rolling by
Old boats are leaving a new morning light
Visiting a Zeppelin
Travelling and yawning
Waiting out the day
Blue misty ocean
Sinking in the grey
I look for you
To take me home
Dying to see it
Slowly come my way
Only few people
Sitting there to stay
You look for me
Then we come home
Foolish lines
Let’s fall in love
Its Going to Rain
Its going to rain
All weekend
So let us hide ourselves
In this place
Its going to rain
All weekend
So let us stay indoors
And let it rain
I’ll never get tired of the road home
That’s where I belong
Only One
I will not forget you
I want to remember how it feels
You’re the only one
You will live in my heart
As much as I am filled deep in your tears
You’re the only one
I am not what I seem
Are we running each other’s dream
In my memory it always seem
Its hard not to let go
I will not forget you
I want to remember you just like this
You’re the only one
You will live in my heart
As much as I am filled deep in your tears
You’re the only one
I am not what I seem
Are we running each other’s dream?
In my memory she’d always see me
Oh its hard not to let go
Water from the Creek
Water from the creek running down below
Sea light singing at the end of the road
Nothing much to say
I am longing to be with you
Running back home where we used to dream
the sea rises I am on the edge of my seat
Nothing much to say
I am longing to be with you
I have done my very best
Just to see you once again
In the town/drout
She’s searching for
The great blue sky
And the words I say
do they mean a thing
If the change I make won’t let you bring me
but I
Well I don’t know you
Then I must know
Ticketman
I woke up in a dreamless sleep
Sinking in the void
Hollowed by these lonesome tears
Breathing nothing but joy
I stood by and I saw it clear
Asking nothing but peace
In the morning I will hear
See there’s nothing for me
Ticketman says I’ve been on the road for too long
Ticketman says I’ve been on the road for too long
Ticketman says I’ve been on the road for too long
How long will I see you?
There’s a boat that’s hanging on my window
There’s an orchard lying by the sea
In the morning I’ll begin to see you
Find me where the buses never sleeps
Ticketman says I’ve been on the road for too long
Ticketman says I’ve been on the road for too long
Ticketman says she’s been on the load for too long
How long will I see you?
Find me on your door
Keep it on your pilgrim
See me for another day in glee
Lay me on the road
Keep me on your pilgrim
Find the puzzled things you see
Bluebirds
We had to walk back home
In the early morning break of dawn
Across the highway down we rolled
Sun is almost shining
And a little bluebird sang a song
In my heart she could always belong
Across the byway down we rolled
Sun is almost shining
If I see the light hanging on my face
Would I seek to find what Im longing for dearly
If i seize the time given on my days
Would I seek to find peace?

Songs from ‘Wild Abandon’
Cold Mountain
Cold Mountain air
Stars and ember
Nowhere else on earth I’d rather be
Rolling down the hills
Surrounded by water
Heavy rain falling on your cheek
I have found a place for us to stay
Don’t worry I won’t be leaving
It’s far away from all the things you say
Cause its hard to keep remembering
That time
Live Another Day
I took a picture of the sky
I threw my medicine and I
walked the streets and I felt the sun in my skin
I’m bald and I have been so thin
My life is changing deep within
Everyone is waiting on the other side
Mama please
Don’t cry
If I’m not staying will it be okay?
Mama please
Don’t cry
I just want to live another day
The letters underneath my bed
from the summer days that we had spent
Well I’ll be across the silhouetted way
If you would only think of me
The way that I used to be
Everyone is waiting on the other side
Wild Abandon
Sunlight passing
Through the trees
Beautiful morning
today is here
Clouds in the blue sky
Pull me in
Swallowed by darkness
Deep within
Down by the Ocean
I left my heart
Springing completely
Back to the start
Spent all my wandering
In this place
Where should I go now?
Where should I stay?
Miss April
April won’t you sing for me?
You mystify my longing
Darling in my memory
I think about that morning
Time is all we have dear
And changing is all we ever do
Here I am
Here I am
April won’t you lean on me?
The city lights are dawning
Darling in my memory
Your humming by my doorstep
Oh the bus is leaving
I am on my way to you
Here I am
Here I am
Have a little time for yourself
Don’t look back on your mistakes
Have a little time for yourself
If the clouds have turned to grey
Have a little time for yourself
I don’t need anyone
Telling me what am I supposed to do
I just need to be alone
Somewhere far away from here
Don’t look back on your mistakes
Have a little time for yourself
You can’t please them either way
Have a little time for yourself
I don’t need anyone
I don’t want you giving me the blues
I just need to be by myself
Somewhere far away from here
Different kinds of Strangers
If you see me on your doorstep
I hope you will have the heart
to be the change I’ll see the closest
Someday
If you were there when I was different
Would you know that I have learned?
All these different kinds of strangers
They return
If you see me by December
When my traveling days are gone
I’ll be waiting by the river
Either way
If you were there in my beginning
Would you know whom I have hurt?
All these different kinds of strangers
They return
