What am I forgetting
As my eyes open to
A world emerging
Unfolding
An unimagined realm
Forms I’ve never seen
A strange alchemy
Brewing
And oh so many things
A singing field of stars
Each one a mystery
Companion to me
Theres something in this air
Something quite unseen
The ghosts of history
Resonating
Im looking through the peaks
Through the twilit seas
Im not paddling
But I’m moving
In the depth of night
In the depth of me
A phase is tuning
Souls speaking
And I had no idea
How stunning it would be
I must be leaving
Returning
Shadows & shells
Ring the farewell bells
Shadows & shells
Ring the farewell bells
Shadows & shells
Ring the farewell bells
Shadows & shells
Ring the farewell bells

I Orbit You
03:25
|

Cycles within
Cycles abide
Pulled by that sacred tide
We share the moon
And somewhere else soon
Soon
Soon
I know no form
The soul I am
A sea without a shore
Age after age
We come apart
This place can break a heart in two
Two
Two
And the cosmic wheel
Moves slow and still
And it will reveal I orbit
You
You
In each others’ arms
In each others’ arms
In each others’ arms
In each others’ arms

The Gravity & The Glue
03:25
|

The night you disappeared
Into the darkness dear
How I clasped your hands
In a silent prayer
The way an island falls
The way it re-appears
Out of the mist and maze
It’s always oh so near
And we’re nothing
And its no thing
Im thankful that I dreamt of you
The gravity and the glue
That brought and held me to you
If you were me
And I were you
And if I realized when I die
The tomb is a womb
To start again
Toward other ends
Maybe some are greater maybe lesser
Your spirit Is primordial love
I can vision all the feathers in your hair
Nature reclaimed what she birthed
Back into the wild dark frontier
Frontier
No tears
Venus was your heart
Saturn was your mirror
And in retrograde
A change was in the air
When winter came
In the great year
How your light rejoiced
Throughout the atmosphere
And we’re nothing
And its no thing
Im thankful that I dreamt of you
The gravity and the glue
That brought and held me to you
And its quiet its a lovely thing
Another kind of space music
Listen for the silence
A lot of love is in it

Slowdance
03:14

If there’s time enough when the
Apocalypse rolls through
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
Before big brother tags my soul
And moments are few
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
A garden made of stone
Silence what it gives
Ill trade it for advice
On how best to live
I’m in the market for a life
A gold-souled treasury
Will I grow into being
A Buddha caroling?
If there’s time enough when the
Apocalypse rolls through
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
Before big brother tags my soul
And moments are few
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
Will eternity join in?
Forever on the go
Nothing’s looking back
Nothing’s casting shadow
And just like that its gone
Life moves on it way
Its all a silver lining
Mending all the way
If there’s time enough when the
Apocalypse rolls through
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
Before big brother tags my soul
And moments are few
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
If there’s time enough when the
Apocalypse rolls through
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
Before big brother tags my soul
And moments are few
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you
If there’s time enough when the
Apocalypse rolls through
A slow dance with you
A slow dance with you

What Falls Apart
03:02
|
|||
Before the world
Before the spark
Before the light
Suddenly went dark
Does it matter
After we have vanished
And become
What falls apart?
I’ve been spending time
Forgetting endings
We would climb
Our dreams’ lattices
The dark thick with stars
A filled emptiness
Those sweet nights
Your party dresses
They all slipped by
We never noticed
Does it matter
After we have vanished
And become
What falls apart?
I’ve been spending time
Forgetting endings
We all were born
With a holiness
But as time moves on
We feel it less and less
More clearly than
The whole of life
Always coming back
Until the end of time
Does it matter
After we have vanished
And become
What falls apart?
I’ve been spending time
Forgetting endings
Does it matter
After we have vanished
And become
What falls apart?
I’ve been spending time
Forgetting endings

Sad Piano
02:51

The day we left your home
Where you came from
It was purple there
Raining cats and dogs
And we
Drove on
As the night
Turned towards the sun
Now we’re halfway there
My life and love
Yes we’re both crazy
My sweet woman
And we
Drove on
As the night
Turned towards the sun
Always a sad piano in the distance
Striking a chord in the two of us
Always a sad piano in the distance
Oh to hear you
When you come
You ought to scream at him
This I’m sure of
And we’ll
Stroll on
As the day
Burns in the sun
Say look at you
Good-for-nothing
Full of big mouths
And shortcomings
And we’ll
Stroll on
(They got you on the run)
As the day
(My god what have they done to you)
Burns in the sun
Screaming sets you free
It beats the hell out of me
They got you on the run
My god what have they done to you
Screaming sets you free
It beats the hell out of me

Babygirl you’re the first of a line
Your great traits, i’ll claim them all as mine
But like your mama you can stop traffic on a dime
Before I knew it, before I realized
You traveled through the giant wild rye
Im getting use to the watering in my eyes
No-va
No-oh-oh-oh-ohhhhvahhh
AH-ahh
No-va
No-oh-oh-oh-ohhhhvahhh
AH-ahh
If I’m reading and you’re yawing, I’m to follow
I’ll close that book and save that ending for tomorrow
And when we’re finished I’m sure we’ll share sorrow
In L.A., the smog covers the mountains
In Ojai, we see their true perfection
And in my heart I am always shouting…
Deep in Matilija canyon
Where we always seem to go
Barn owls and coyotes are in fashion
Their night calls that we all know
No-va
No-oh-oh-oh-ohhhhvahhh
AH-ahh
No-va
No-oh-oh-oh-ohhhhvahhh
AH-ahh

Ever
03:30

Out on a far trail
Raptors hover
A vibrating high hill
Deepening oak groves
Gentle meadows
A resonance we know
Let me return ever
To where you’ll be
Your heart may break
But will not stay
Forever broken
Love creates
But abates
If unspoken
Let me return ever
To where you’ll be
A night diamond sky
The light of Orion
Dying in my eyes
Into the above
Goes the white dove
Of what we’re made of
Let me return ever
To where you’ll be
Let me return ever
To where you’ll be

Duet

There once was nothing
But nothing needed something
To hold when the still
Born of the dead took its will
I don’t know anything
I’m too busy listening
To the ghosts in the wind
Who’ve all come rushing in
Let me lay my head on your shoulder
Let me dream that god could live in me
Let me go to sleep and ask nothing
This world hurts
And life is long
So long in my longing
We need to believe
In love that’s so far-reaching
We lean close to touch
Ourselves in our own otherness
I held you once at least
We swam in the ocean
Climbed to peaks
Before this all went away
Sung with no words or no names
Let me knock on the door of heaven
Let me weep ’til the tears all fall from me
All these countless places we waltz in
Will we ever know eternity?

A day alone with you on Sunday
We’ll walk the dogs if you say ok
The farmers market
Is underway
A day alone with you on Sunday
We’ll walk the dogs if you say ok
We hear the church bells
We have our own faith
Evening comes and fades day light
The undeveloped film of our blurred lives
When you touch my hand
Or catch my eye
A simple exercise to extend my life
Darkness soon and old geologic time
We’ll freeze the stars and slow down father sky
Mother Earth
You’re more than wise
Cycle of birth and demise

A poet of the people
You were a king like Elvis
Lost son of The Beatles
In life and in death
Yeah you were
One of the best
A rare bird and let’s be honest
In ways our genius
You snapped shots in fits of astonished
Light you photographed
Before the dream machine
Took you back
You took a final bow
And blew us all a kiss
Without regrets
And wished us
Love and happiness
With all your success
Did you forget
Something in the process
The hypocrisy that
The world embodies
And its need for recognition
Your muse was not
A one trick pony
But LA wants your attention
Yeah the heartbreakers
Can do you in
