Came on Lion

Closer than a girl can get
to trouble if she hasn't yet
gotten it
It started out like any show
I crossed a bridge I thought you'd know
Did you hear that dedication
I came up and out onstage
When you came on lion
all courageous
and I stepped up to your cage
just to see if we would go
I crossed a bridge I thought you'd know
and my sun is up already hot
with two rays on two strayin' thoughts
but each one warm to make me glow
or burn me if I'm not careful
oh it's not hard, no it's too easy
I get it and I get to be
closer than a girl can get
to trouble if she hasn't yet
gotten it
now can I step lightly back between
where you are and where I've been
back into that thing we do
where I am and you are too
and it's not hard, no it's too easy
and I get it and I get to be
closer than a girl can get
to trouble
without getting in it

Oleander

oleander, oleander
will you bloom again this spring
I adored you and I ignored you
and now to me you're everything
and those white blossoms that you gave freely
are now just twinkles in your eye
oh behold her, oleander
grows on the inside

she will forgive me
for I bring water
a sunny window to sit by
oleander, I understand her
she's just waiting for the time
to say it's alright, another season
has brought us another chance
we're together in this hot weather to dance

oleander, I think you're better
I think you made it through another winter
well nothing's ended
it's all been mended
it's the way that it should be
you're coming back
you're coming back
it was so lonely here just me
this time no promises of what's to come
we'll just live it in the day
oleander, I see you stand there
and I know you'll be ok

oleander, I think you'd better
I think you made it through another winter
oleander, I think you'd better
I think you made it through another winter
 
Alablaster (by Oh Susanna)

met on the shore
on the rainy dawn in late November
"speak not a word" is what you wrote to me
your shoes soaked in sand
and the heavy coat around your shoulder
a bird in the hand is what you gave to me
you stood so strong and the waves beyond
the rolling over (?)
pulling me close like the moon pulls on the sea
I wanna ride
on the road that turns a thousand corners
two beams of light
one for you and me
a house in the hills
and inside the sound of nervous laughter
a bed of white unmade by you and me
your body is stone
and I touch until it turns to water
(did she drop a line here???)
was revealed to me
now I wanna touch your tender skin of alabaster
shoulders as white as the peaks beyond the sea
arm in your arms
and soon the room is spinning faster
eyes in your eyes
is the only thing I see
I love you so much
that the only thing that you remember
is what it's like to be in love with me
 
Silver Road

I'll be way down a silver road, I'll go
where the moon has it lit up
turn off your headlights and go slowly
I don't want it to let up.

Have you been thinking that you were all alone
but I still thought of you
Word every once in a while forgetting that
some of it could be true
held in the beam of a light I thought we shared
shone between two shores
and wants to be traveled like the gravel that
runs from my door to yours

I'll be way down a silver road, I'll go
where the moon has it lit up
turn off your headlights and go slowly
I don't want it to let up.

way down a silver road, I'll go
where the moon has it lit up
turn off your headlights and go slowly
I don't want it to let up.

da da da...
held in the beam of a light I thought we shared
shone between two shores
and wants to be traveled like the gravel that
runs from my door to yours

I'll be way down a silver road, I'll go
where the moon has it lit up
turn off your headlights and go slow
I don't want it to let up.

way down a silver road, I'll go
where the moon has it lit up
turn off your headlights and go slowly
I don't want it to let up.
