Applesauce

If I had three wishes 
I'd save one for you.
If I had three wishes
we'd come back from London
drinking tea each afternoon.
Paris is burning.
We are touring for the queen 
eating all the applesauce.
Watermelon, melba toast 
and these mountains are my home.
If I had three wishes,
we'd laugh and cry like children,
London bridge has fallen now 
sinking quickly like a stone.
Work like a machine 
being all a man should be, 
Spirit comes to call you back 
caught up in this masquerade.
If I had three wishes,
 if I had three wishes, 
I 'd want to taste your kiss again.
You're a nickel in my pocket 
I can't hide my greed and fear, 
I'm still a shattered, 
puzzeled mass of prayer.
If faith saves.
If faith saves.
Oh faith saves. 

Callin’ Me Home

I feel it in me, it’s older than the sky
Cryin for my to understand
I hear my voice singin
Do not disturb her but travaille, travaille, travaille
She is on the ocean shore callin for me to understand
Just reach for the child
I feel it in me, it’s callin me home
Waitin for my eyes to turn her way
So forgive me my leave, it’s time to go.
I’m dyin in your arms my love.
And I feel it in me. It’s pushin’ away.
It must be my time to go.
Like a French twist Pierre
I got my faces -- they’ll
Split me in three,
then I’d have to turn and walk away
ya know, but everyone’s the hypocrite
And the crone’s by her fire
She’s 103
And the children are back in the canyon
Like a pack of wilds
They’re singin honey
I hear them singin.
They’re callin to me
Sayin save yourself
You won’t falter from your destiny
Do what makes ya smile
Save yourself. Do what makes ya smile. 

Don Juan

You know he played a mean guitar
and he stared at all the girls
oh well now, well i wonder why
we were hidin all the ugliness
we thought we had to hide
he's sleepin in the garden
it hardly ever rains
it;s a complicated kind of game
when we're livin in a fairytale we made
We were about to play 
but we cut ourseleves to pieces that day
and all the wishes that were beggers 
and all the lovers that were thieves
he's sleepin in the garden
it hardly ever rains
it's a complicated kind of game
when we're livin in a fairytale we made 
and he got laid all the time
and everyone knew he was always high
and so now i wonder why
we were hidin all the ugliness
we thought we had to hide
he's sleepin in the garden
it hardly ever rains
it;s a complicated kind of game
when we're livin in a fairytale we made 
it's a complicated game when 
the beauty starts to stalk you
the line we crossed was fine
but its all about the laughter
i wonder if we been there longer
time hurries us along
and all these people shadow 
all the ones i love so
he's sleepin in the garden
it hardly ever rains
it;s a complicated kind of game
when we're livin in a fairytale we made 
oh well now when i think of him
oh well now, well i wonder why
oh well now when i think of him
oh well now
i think he thought 
he was some kind of a don juan

My Own Road 

Everything that comes and goes 
I am drivin' down my own road.
And I'm still tryin to find an answer, 
if you never hear my voice
Here we go, here we go oh oh
here we go oh oh
There are castles in the sky.
I am drivin' down my own road. 
There are sparkles in the lights 
but they cannot speak a word.
Here we go. here we go oh oh.
here we go oh oh
here we go
goin too slow for the girl
Everything that comes and goes
strange how she stays here
I think she wants you
goin too slow
goin too slow


Your Distance
 
Your distance seems farther than the moon in the sky.
And I, a cloud covering the moon goodbye.
No moon in the sky.
Wind
blows the cloud aside
and I, don't know how to say goodnight.
Your distance is only feet away.
And I, reach for words.
And I, don't know how to say goodbye 


Witchsong 

So you say you think I 'm a witch.
I'll just cast my spell.
Sister's been watchin' you. 
She says you beard seems awful blue.
I'll light three candles. All kinds of rituals.
Ashes and the element of fire
The darkest black to the yellowest sun
Sustain and protect her smiles in time
I'll light three candles.
All kinds of rituals.
Moon and the element of air
the darkest black to the yellowest sun
Sustain and protect her smiles in time
Prayer for protection of this woman's life
Clearly she's thinking 
she wants to be a wife.
So you say you think I'm a witch
I'll just cast my spell
Sister's been watchin you
she's cooking up a pot of brew
I'll just cast my spell
I'll just cast my spell 

That Girl

You know that girl but you don’t understand her
You want her she’s too far away
And if she hurts she can’t explain why can’t we
Why can’t she?
Sit on a stage in a corner behind ourselves
Or have our simple need
Oh we’re all in a puddle
Or a packet of seeds and we were planed in the dark.
Why can’t we?
To hold that girl is only a treasure
You want her she’s too far away
And if she hurts she can’t explain why can’t we
Why can’t she?
Sit on a stage in a corner behind ourselves
Or have our simple need
Oh we’re all in a puddle
Or a packet of seeds and we were planed in the dark.
Why can’t we?
If you just don’t think too much
If you just don’t think too much
You might smile more
Cause I love you
You know that girl but you can’t comprehend her
You want her she’s too far away
And if she hurts she can’t explain why can’t we
Why can’t she?
If faith saves. If faith saves.
Oh faith saves.
We’ll just sit on a stage
In a corner behind ourselves
And have our simple needs.
Oh we’re all in a puddle
Or a packet of seeds
And we were planted in the dark.
Why can’t we?
