Carlos Meets Juan
03:29

|
They met up 'round from the downstream
Way out in the middle of Mexico
They'd always been bent to strictness
Not knowing which way or how to go
In a shack half-buried in a rock bed
On the ground, in the dirt, with a bed roll
Spoke tongue in the language
Disregarded by most and read low

Back Mountain Lane
03:47
|

|
In a cabin built back from the 17’s
Nestled off a back ridge out among the evergreens
Where the world’s been locked in an older time
When the chestnut groves were still doing fine
Off of Back Mountain Lane
The wood stove ran through the summertime
The dew dropping off a poison ivy vine
That ran through the splits in an old wood rail
Fetching from the spring with a beat tin pail
Off of Back Mountain Lane
There was a man who returned from the bulged Ardenne
On a farm alone trying to stay a little more sane
His back had been cracked in a tractor fall
Not did once the doctor he call
Off of Back Mountain Lane
Riding on the Dart with the meter wound
Hiding at the peak with the fuzz around
Sliding in a drive with the engine turned down
Deciding to give up they headed back to town
Off of Back Mountain Lane

Release Dissolve AtOne
02:12
|
|||
|
While the charms and treasures are shining
And the bindings been spun
All the trappings that fail
Release dissolve atOne
The world in its recklessness is hiding
From the nurturing bond
As neglected and prideful
Release dissolve atOne

Leaving Love
03:39
|
|||
|
Sun in my eyes
There's water in the storm drain
We ran from those guys
With a piece of siding in the warm rain
And when I was a little boy
I had a friend who was a vampire
We ran in the street
Formed a gathering on the downtime
Some lived in repeat
Holding on to those who didn’t care
When I was an older boy
I had a friend who said that he could fly
Leaving love was never on the fine line
Helmed aboard
Up above the bright sign
When I was a younger man
I had some friends who said that I was right

Dark Cloud Sunny Day

I know a man of contradiction
He likes to burn and do a little self infliction
He also likes to give and be the well guy
Many of them things that are hard to measure heaven or hell by
And ironic though it seems
When you're crossing all them beams
On a dark cloud sunny day
Breezing on by in an easy way
He always likes to try to give a bit of advice now
The only reason that he knows he's been there and paid the price now
He may not have done the thing here in the meantime
That don't mean it don't count way out in the dreamtime
And ironic though it seems
When you're crossing all them beams
On a dark cloud sunny day
Breezing on by in an easy way

Where We Were Empty
04:09
|
|||
|
Looking down a long road the last time we had seen each other
Standing where the songs wrote the lines that swept us out in the memory
Now we have a long way to go right before we know we can be
Moving in a straight line back towards the point where we were empty
Moving on a whim with all those gathering in to meet them
All around a moment’s spaceless simplistic form of measure
Holding onto arms with the distance made by such endeavors
Now to settle down and invite them all around the table
The look upon our face your plans the lines had intersected
Moving at a real pace the noiseless span of the finite moment
Waiting on the fill with all those cleansing understatements
Spilling over till we tilt back to the place where we were empty

Thank you Bob and June you held some runes and mighty keys
That helped to heal my heart and access ancient memories
The stars shine down upon you where the midnight blossom blooms
I say thank you for all you've blessed in tune
I say thank you, thank you Bob and June
They had shelves of mystic creatures guarding analog clocks
Face of a race car driver imprinted on a pair of socks
Multi-dimensional sculptures displayed in a cardboard box
Among the music displayed for all to see
All the music they shared so happily
Thank you Bob and June you held some runes and mighty keys
That helped to heal my heart and access ancient memories
The stars shine down upon you where the midnight blossom blooms
I say thank you for all you've blessed in tune
I say thank you, thank you Bob and June
Days filled with wonders and crowds of every kind
Gathering in the market beyond the plywood sign
Through time and illness they always seemed to find
For all the people
A good old fashioned song
From a golden vision
They attempted to pass along
Thank you Bob and June you held some runes and mighty keys
That helped to heal my heart and access ancient memories
The stars shine down upon you where the midnight blossom blooms
I say thank you for all you've blessed in tune
I say thank you, thank you Bob and June
Bob and June

Sewn

There’s a storm outside and it’s raining
This nature needs none such explaining
The reservoir spilling over draining
Gathering all it’s matter
A pile left in pieces
Sewn
Together in this space well known
There’s a storm and the wind’s been rolling
Visiting timeless spinning strolling
Reminiscing fortunes trolling
Gathering all it’s matter
A pile left in pieces
Sewn
Together in this space well known
There’s a form inside where the moss grows
At the cracks where the tunnel meets in the soft rows
Flowing out through it’s lost prose
Gathering all it’s matter
A pile left in pieces
Sewn
Together in this space well known
