If this life's a flowin' river, Then we are but pebbles in the sand Some will rise and roll amidst the water While some, unmovable, will stand Lovely road, precious time, Dancing to the beat of your own mind If my heart's a bloomin' flower, With each flag a love I truly bear, Then I pray this blossom forms a bower, So my beloved may find some shelter there Lovely road, precious time, Never know the people you might find If the sleep that lasts forever Should come stealing softly o'er my eye, Then I hope that you'll recall the pebble Though the river that once moved it now is dry Lovely road, precious time, Walk into the light - it'll be fine

Aye Me, Mine 03:42
Heart beats fast- We step on the gas now 40, 50, 60 Make it last- We'll take the road less traveled, Switch off the GPS Just like the first time that I got behind the wheel, Oh so giddy and terrified, not knowing what to feel Fingers crossed That we'll make it home in one piece, The needle keeps climbing up Let's get lost- Leave the whole world behind in a cloud of exhaust And I'll open up my eyes to the open road We are driving blind but it feels so good, feels so good Aye me, mine Foolish love- It is so fickle, and flighty, and dizzy, and terrible That's enough- We better take the next exit So I can get out of this Unrealistic dream that I'm living in I try to take control but I'm giving in And you could make anyone fall, You could make anyone lose their head Oh no I'm not the first one, I'm not the first one who wants to believe every word you've said Aye me, mine

Unpuzzle Me 03:57
Never really had a home, I have been a wanderin' soul Lookin' for a sense of self, wishin' I could just let go Of all the cares and fears that follow me There are days that seem to swallow me whole Always wanna do what's right, even when I don't know how Thinkin' maybe I lost sight of what I really want right now My heart is in a floating cage of bones, But I can feel a heavy weight that drags this body down I was like an open book written in a foreign tongue You were too afraid to look, sayin' we were both too young But every word within was yours to read I didn't know it then but you'd translate my soul Unpuzzle me, unpuzzle me My mind's in a knot and my heart cannot see So unpuzzle me, unpuzzle me My love Oh, life is a riddle, a secret code, And I'm never sure which way to go, But something in your smile makes the mystery worthwhile Unpuzzle me, unpuzzle me My mind's in a knot and my heart cannot see So unpuzzle me, unpuzzle me

Well you better take care when you open your heart The more joy when you meet, the more pain when you part Well I've never been careful when fallin' in love, And each time I get bruised I think I've had enough, But you hit like a freight train, Love, Oh how you shake me up How could I know you'd be Something so wrong, so wrong for me? It's so easy to say all those beautiful words And you never imagined how much they could hurt Well the world I envisioned was built for us both I ate up all your lines but you swallowed your oath You hit like a freight train, Love, Oh how you shake me up How could I know you'd be Something so wrong, so wrong for me? Well I didn't know if we'd sink or we'd swim, But I hopelessly entertained your every whim And you say "What's the matter? Why look you so sad?" And I say "You're the best love that I never had" I'm sick of this freight train love, Oh how you shake me up How could I know you'd be Something so wrong, so wrong for me? You hit like a freight train, Love, Oh how you shake me up How could I know you'd be Something so wrong, so wrong for me?

Grandmother 04:39
Awake with watchful sleepless eye, I struggle in the dark A quiet watcher sitting by, She offers up a single spark: "Tell me of your loves, your losses, Your worries and your woes - We all bear our crosses, darlin', I know just how it goes." Grandmother, Grandmother mine, Grandmother, Grandmother time You have seen so many things You've traveled many roads You have known the depth of pain And you have lived with ghosts In your eyes I see the wisdom of all you've come to learn And in your face I see mine reflected in turn Grandmother, Grandmother mine, Grandmother, Grandmother time Would you stay with me And pass the time awhile? Oh would you stay with me, 'Till the sun rises? Grandmother, Grandmother mine, Grandmother, Grandmother time
