Parties 03:48
lyrics

Welcome mat reads paradise The screen door is ajar Porch fills with detritus And the yard with rusty cars It may not look inviting May even frighten from afar But they just want their lives back Every night at the neighborhood bar It's true that freedom's pricy Your pride just won't let you pay You pick your side, you pick your bones 'Cause in the same home we must stay Barred door's bell is ringing Another new mask arrives Trapped next to each other Nearest tree's an hour's drive And when you see them cower Tough not to laugh and talk some jive But you just remember They're asked to fear for their lives Between the town and country Seen them yelling back and forth From the southern comfort To the drunkards in the north And all across this nation Folks are desperate for a fix No, I don't mean solutions Just getting proved right and getting kicks ...And party! Sisters and brothers and all the rest I don't mean to suggest we all just get along But if we can't confess a lack of love is the mess Then lord knows something's wrong

Permission 04:49
lyrics

You looked up at me with those misty blue eyes And asked me if you could try I said baby please now we're teased go ahead You get me so high, might just fall out of bed But don't you get worried 'cause I told you no lies By we can just sit here, do nothing instead So long as I'm by your side baby heaven I'm led Buried in red Unlocking those longings in your bobbing head You don't have to stop to ask me If you're wishing to set our love free I belong to you, all that you see But it does get me going, the way that you seek Permission The curtains have closed, we have spilled on the floor But the door still stands open wide She said "come and go, and be ready to hide" With soft steady hands builds the pressure inside Got me hoping that one day together we'll ride As I fly with her it could always be more Keeping the score Inching towards takeoff from this throbbing shore Watched me leave and that mist became rain clouds Cried out "could you join" and I said "oh, what I'd give" If the choice was all mine you know you'd be coming with Forever entwined do I want to live Path's painful without you, high waters in rivers and streams Bursting at seams Still your father's daughter so damn it I'll dream The day I may ask his permission

A Toast 04:34
lyrics

Gather 'round you witnesses, your attention I demand I'd like you all to meet my girl, we're going hand in hand Grass grows where her feet touch and the woods erupt in song Right by my side she's standing, just as sweet as she is strong Shining star of every show, still she likes to play the game The whole world round has heard of her but no one knows her name At the sound of her arrival the hosts and guests all kneel At the best she has no rivals, let me toast to how I feel To friends To foes To family To the people in this town I want to show you, I can't wait to show you I walk beneath her blue eyes as across her realm I roam She talks with me through every step, though she's stuck way back at home I tell her just how good she'd look along these open views How when she finally joins me, it will be a storm our hopes have brewed And if she could, she'd like to leave at the break of coming day Though it grieves me just to say so, it'll take some time to run away Oh my bright green girl my beauty, you must see what I mean By I can't wait but I'm too high with you quite yet to be seen The birds The bees The chestnut trees And the rivers falling down I want to show you, I can't wait to show you The tune she whispers in my ear when we wish to be along Makes me swoon and sweat profusely down in my skin and bone She's not afraid of anything and it's a one-way cruise from here But she's got me up and running, got me filled with wondrous fear Ladylike and liberated, a gifted maiden wise My gaze is drifting downward but she keeps it on the prize Our love will cover kingdoms once it's free to hang loose And me, I'll sing my thanks when as my queen she's introduced How nice How sweet A boy can be How long he'll stick around I want to show you, I can't wait to show you

A Mark 06:18
lyrics

I carry a picture Of my girl everywhere I go Something to remember her by When my heart is beating slow Burned into my eyes Is a rosebud blooming grin I carry that picture Every night she puts on a show Oh, in your hungry head Oh, on your bottom lip Oh, on your rosy breast I left a mark And it shows me back to you I gave my girl a gift I said don't go show and tell Your pale soft skin upon this bed Would sure preserve me well I pray that they won't ask Where she got it or from who I gave my girl a gift Oh god, did it begin to swell Oh, on the edge of our bed Oh, on the back porch floor Oh, where they wouldn't know We left a mark And it shows me back to you She poked me and she prodded And we could not get our fill And all across my body I can feel her fingers still In a cloud of smoke she lingers As I dreamily recall How she poked me and she prodded And she lit the fire at will Now we had to leave each other And but one thing could we keep The memory that for lovers cuts And burns so very deep The scars our sheets are hiding Are the sweet discovery That she's still beneath them with me Every night that I fall asleep Oh, right from the start Oh, in my poor old heart Oh, in the dark You left a mark And it shows me back to you

Fire Watch 06:03
lyrics

When we first got to talking, things were looking down But even then I saw the glow that flickered in your frown Now life is going better babe with you it's catching flame But I'm still the same old poor boy and I want my girl around Won't you climb with me higher, won't you climb I could watch your fire in the dark or day for all my time And we'll live up there together and we'll share the heat, the view 'Cause you my love you are my spark and you complete my rhyme As the year burned out of control, got wild and marked our skin I made it 'cause you lent your ear to the shapes that I was in Your hair is leaving smoke trails that I'd chase around the earth 'Cause my birth's each time I see you and a new life we begin Our eyes lit up so quickly when at last we laid it bare For so long had we dreamed of the open skies way up there Though we still are waiting for our home to build above The love I'm filled with won't go out, we'll stay upon this highest stair

Farther Out 04:57
lyrics

I rise up with the birdsongs When the sun is at its peak Love each stop, don't stay long The next dirt road I seek Got a circle of light in my ceiling That pours down through the trees And when you get that going feeling Follow me if you please Bending, winding Never ending, always finding Farther out is where the wide road leads Bending, winding Never ending, always finding Farther out is exactly what I need Sleeping by the riverbed Out at the edge of town Been going where the voices led And never slowing down Well I keep on growing nearer To the bright blue sky it seems My home has got no mirrors But the rear view and the streams My home is where I hit the brakes And pull off to the side It seems to me your heart it aches Of freedom you're denied So if you want to see more I got nothing else but time I'll open up my side doors Right on in you all may climb Don't know where I'm headed Could be lost but I feel found To the backwoods I am wedded To the mountains and muddy ground Feel free to call me crazy 'Cause I'm living day by day My vision sure is hazy But I know I'm on my way
