Another sunny day, can we go outside and play? We walk along the beach, shadows longer than our reach Decisions hard to find, but is there any other kind? If you live there, I won't forget where you come from If I live here, they won't forget me at all Another starry sky, another night to wonder why But when it's said and done, we decide to live as one If I live here I won't forget where I come from If you live there, they'll never forgive me at all If we fall apart I'll never forget you at all When we live together we won't forget where we come from

I can't elaborate ice cubes evaporate in my gin I'm insane and dangerous drinking for both of us One big grin Did you like I did go calmly and quietly? Did you like I did go suddenly still? Do you like I do go silently, silently? Do you like I do get quietly, quietly smashed? I'd miss my bass guitar more than I'd ever miss you It's true But I have this memory, photos inside of me Why don't you? Noise on my radio a voice on my telephone Sings at the beep Hushaby, lullaby, Doctor Bombay and I Go to sleep
3.
I believe in ages, dark and hard as anthracite I was born in fire, I believe in the line of light I'm hard and hardest, I'm stone and I will prevail I believe I'm ageless, as cold as chain mail I'm a million years old I'm forever Succumb to pressure, I'm crushed below the land Return to daylight, I shine at your command Withstand the ages, turn back the dark and cold Reflect the fire, hold me and never grow old I'm a million years old I'm your diamond

Stunned 03:40
Did I say something right or something wrong? I admit it was a lie that I never meant for you to cry or cross the line I tried to bend your will to mine I was waiting for a sign but you decline But if you open your eyes, open your eyes can't you see I'm stunned? Open up your eyes get a big surprise can't you see I'm stunned? Turning circles in the room you're not here but your perfume does not subside Your scent is strong here in the air close my eyes you're sleeping there, oh I can't decide
5.
In My Tribe 02:18
The airport for us is a revolving door Spin up to speed while the jet engines roar They wave us through customs they've seen this before Follow us closely, mop tears off the floor So why don't we get married tomorrow? I want you in my tribe I could get weary of leaving the ground With you below me I'm lost in the sound Or you could be flying with me down below Wherever you're going, I want to go.

N24 04:40
Nothing but the cold water down there From here it's glass but I really couldn't care Bring me safely down from the silvery haze Plant me on the ground for the rest of my days I don't have the time to help you understand Just put me on the road with a map in my hand I'm too tired to talk, get out of my way I'll be east southeast by the end of the day Take me back to the N24 Even if I'm just in passing A sun so low I've never seen before Could it be I'm just in passing? Everything is old and will never really change But everything is new and everything's strange Hide the way I talk and comb my hair But everybody knows I'm not from there

She goes from a "D" to a little "C" cup Holds her brains in the bottom of a tea cup What was she thinking of? If any press is good then this couldn't get better We love the news in a skin-tight sweater Everyone agrees: she needs a chaperone Tell you what she loves: she loves silicone! They feel better, they taste the same Such a fool, why would she minimize? Almost real, no need to fantasize They look so nice they could take an eye out Let me hear you scream, let me hear you shout

And you say that you love me (That's a nice thought) On the mountain say the word Be the wind that climbs this mountain Be the cloud that storms this heart I don't need a palace of flowers What's in a song? A song from far away Don't be afraid when it's not magic You are always in my heart Paint a picture just for me Carve our initials in our tree Give me kisses and bury me In roses up to my knees And you say we'll live forever In the mountains far from my home Just sing the song to hold us together Sing the song that's in your heart
10.
They like a time and they like a place They're feeling fine in history's embrace They look through the ages with deep fascination Choosing the date and time and their destination Together they're on the road no time to stop or stumble No time to hesitate no time for the heart to crumble May they live in love Forever In the web of history He's an old airplane that takes no reservations She's an old radio tuned between two stations Together they're on their own with no destinations Choosing the date and time with no expectations
11.
The sun is rising on their love affair They wake up slowly, flowers everywhere Kisses softly shiver down the spine Sea and sky collide in one blue line Don't catch them now, they feel like falling Don't catch them now they're still falling Falling in love Night is falling on this fairy tale Lovers laughing move to the rail The stars are shining in the Milky Way Satellites decay and fall away
