Almost Love

You and I lay secrets bare
when there's an hour without pain
and we seem to find some comfort there
between the kisses and the rain
You and I are like children lost
trying to find our way home
It may be that we are lost
but at least we're not alone

It seemed to me that it was almost love
that we almost cared
almost heard the Angels sing
Almost touched their lovely wings

But there's another man who loves you
I can feel the pain he bears
His heart is counting on the truth
oh my brother, I was there

That's why it's almost love
why we almost care
almost hear the angels sing
almost touch their lovely wings

Look for geese and sunsets love
Look for falling snow
That's where you'll find me now
That's where love goes

when it's almost love
when we almost care
almost hear the angels sing
almost touch their lovely wings

Look out your window love
It's almost dawn
Isn't your heartache
almost gone?

Birthday Song

Does it rain in the mountains
like it rains by the sea?
Do your tears fall down in the mountains
like these tears fall from me?

When you blow out your candles
will you say a prayer for me?
I aint gettin any younger
The years wash over me

The last time that I saw you
It was just to say goodbye
Still I cannot help but wonder
if we should not have tried

to live together in the moonlight
like some old lonesome doves
so I wrote you this letter
Happy birthday my love.

Always There

She's living on that island still
She's got her father's life to lead
The children skip and dance
There's dope and booze and poverty
and time and love and chance
and she's saving all those good old songs
in case somebody cares
but when she looks into her heart she finds
that he's always there

He's dreaming by a fireplace
alone and waiting for the sun
He's fixing up what's broken
seeing how it is to be no longer young
The fix was in when the deal went down
Now he's living on the cold side of town
but when he looks into his heart he finds
that she's always there

I never used to feel this way
I thought that life was lived alone
I never used to know for sure
not even when I called you on the telephone
But now when I want to hold you
or reach out and touch your hair
I just look into my heart and I find
that you're always there

Another Lifetime

I'm puttin in my request
to the Department of Souls that are Lost and Found
Set me up to meet you some day
In another time around
Maybe then you won't have so much pain
and I won't have nothin to lose
And I want them to make your eyes just the same pretty blue
so I'll make no mistake
and I'll know who to choose
in another lifetime
another lifetime

Oh in the river of souls
you know you can never drown
and I'll be watching for you
til we both come back around
in another lifetime

Dry your tears and put on somethin fine
you don't have to care any more
you don't have to be kind
even though our beauty is gone
and our childhood is just a fading dream
we still have the rest of our days
to say what we'll say
and mean what we mean
in another lifetime
another lifetime



Blue Song

Achin head, rumpled bed
smokin and drinkin all night long
I don't think I can go to work today

I'm a mess and my room's the same
all my clothes hangin on the floor
I just don't think I can go to work no more

Blue song, brother, blue song
It's been in my mind all night long
and I just don't think I can go to work today

Gonna tell the boss that I got a cold
Tell him that I'm feelin old
and I just don't think I can go to work today

Blue song, honey, blue song
It's been in my mind all night long
And I just don't think I can go
No I just don't think I can go to work today

Blanket Of Stars

You awaken in the night
turn on your light
All the things you cannot change
arranged like ghosts around your bed
Quickly now before you start to think
pour another drink
Never let yourself believe
in things that cannot be

I held you in the winter time
on your bed
Tried to save you from those nightmares
in your head
Your kitten lost, your stolen son
who never calls
Oh my coward soul
I let you fall

If you walk along the lines
in the palm of God's hand
follow crow feather
turquoise blue water sand
cedar smoke rising to the sun
Meet me there
on a blanket of stars
your hair undone
