23 Skidoo

They came around imagining
They’d take a little bit of you
It's lights out when it's thundering
Your face lit bitterly and blue
“We'll be out for here come morning
All of us 23 skidoo
We set sail for New York City”
The world spins it's final turn for you
The ocean calm is oh so eerie
The silence penetrates the crew
For this there is a theory
“We were lucky then and hitherto
We're out of here come morning
Everyone of us 23 skidoo
We set sail for New York City”
Father Time he's a coming for you

Every Time You Cry

I see it every time you cry,
You're dreaming of a better time.
You never want to wake up,
You never want to lose it from your mind.
Those perfect pictures in my sleep,
Are taking us further than we can be.
I never want to wake up,
I never want to lose you from my life.
I see our love will fall away,
I see it every time you say...
"I never want to wake up,
I never want to lose it from my mind."
The sun goes down in the darkest place.
But still it's beams light up your face,
I never want to wake up,
I never want to lose you from my life.
I see it every time you cry,
You're dreaming of a better time.
You never want to wake up,
You never want to lose it from your mind.

Walk away, or stay and watch him suffer
The light of day is nothing to him
Many tried but carelessly they uttered
Those honest words to him.
“Just stay away
I have no time for others
My heart is pain I hold it within
And time of day
I'll save it for my lover
My wait for her begins”
Lonely boy stop running
God knows you’re only scared
You’re not alone I'm coming
If you only knew I cared.
“She is my all
She's everything I hunger
I am lost now she's gone
I'm torn apart
And I'll never love another
But she played me all along”
Lonely boy stop running
God knows you’re only scared
You’re not alone I'm coming
If you only knew I cared
“I lost my soul my everything
My everything is unwound
I wait here now for her voice to sing
But I never hear a sound
Oh I'm running out of days my friend
Oh I'm running out
Of days again.”
Lonely boy stop running
God knows you’re only scared
You’re not alone I'm coming
If you only knew I cared

The Weight
04:38

The wait is long,
Your heart so wrong.
Night falls for me,
The time draws so near.
Take a sip,
Don’t wipe it from your lips,
The taste of love is strong,
Hold on, hold on it’s gone...
Away...away...
Away...away...
November calls,
You’re bound to give your all,
These Autumn winds will stay,
And blow the fear away.
The weight, weighed us down,
Our hearts became unwound,
Forever I will mourn,
The time we took is gone...
Away...away...
Away...away...
