You Took My Blues Away
03:54
|
|||
How'd my boots get so heavy?
I prayed to anything out loud
But you came and took my blues away
You took my blues away

Under the cottonwood tree
My friend writes to me
Falling

Bowl of Plums
04:27
|
|||
My friends call me when they're feeling low
We talk quietly for hours and walk the room
Flowers growing in a coffee can
Our lives are wonderful and sad sometimes
I'm so happy I could cry
A bowl of plums on the table
I'd like someone's arms around me now
Tell me that I'm pretty that my mouth is soft
Flowers growing in the floorboards of your house
Tell me that I'm worthy that my heart is good
I'm so happy I could cry
A bowl of plums on the table
I dreamed I was in an empty field
You slept soundly in a wooden boat
Flowers growing all around me where I stepped
Church bells ringing in the iron clouds
I'm so happy I could cry
A bowl of plums on the table

I thank my lucky stars for you

In a Twin Bed
02:19
|

I was on your side
Nailing clouds to the sky
In a twin bed

Getting Out
03:12
|
|||
I don't know about you
Jelly stains on your lips and teeth
But I'm getting out
I'm getting out
Butterflies alight on my arms
Fireflies circle the graveyard
I'm getting out
I'm getting out
I don't want to love this life
No, I don't
Oh, I'm awake and I'm sleeping

Blood in the Muzzle
04:12
|
|||
I'm slow today
The rad world is far away and gray
Beetles in a bottle
Our wings ring the glass
When I'm down
You come round
And lift me up
Blood in the muzzle
Dead in the saddle
Sunlight stings
Ridgewood sings for marketing
Buzzkills in the bushes
Blowdarts in their mouths
Put a cigarette
Out in the eye
Of bad vibes
Blood in the muzzle
Dead in the saddle
Joy in the marrow
Mud in the barrel

Thommy
Fire of my heart
Your long body
Thommy
Believe me
When I call you over
to me
Thommy

Kudzu
04:11
|
|||
All for that we ran our paths
Woke up happier than I've been
Hold me close - no, closer than that
Trees on the hill grew silently
Take me to your house
Put me on the couch
And let me sleep all day
Broken jelly jars and scars
I flipped through your coffee table books
Hold me close - no, closer than that
Birds in the dirt chirped noiselessly
Take me to your house
Put me on the couch
And let me sleep all day
And let the kudzu
Wrap around me
As I sleep in the sun
I needed someone
That I could dream for
Now my heart sings again

You Are on the Water
04:05
|
|||
Empty handed and on my way
Summer cam girl on a bicycle
Good morning
You are on the water, oh
Rhododendron and plumeria
Dandelions and hyacinth
Honeysuckle and lavender
Wildflowers in Garden Grove
You are on the water, oh
You are on the water, oh
And you're alive

I Like Your Size
01:57
|
|||
You told me
And I heard you
You told me
And I heard you
I want you
Come in from the cold, my boy
I want you
and
I like your size
