Not Just Echoes Or Smalltalk (Alt. Version) 06:11
lyrics
buy track
John the Baptist nearly drowned Jesus Christ When he showed him his river of faith. I saw them when I was there last night, only I was there to bath. Standing there, she looked like a little deer Her big eyes only saw the moon In her face there where traces of tears It was a beautiful night in June I spoke to Mary of Magdala Near the church on the hill. She looked at me, just looked She said; she left, you can do what you will I told her about the evening, the river and the girl about her eyes that only saw the moon in her face and the traces of tears Now, it is the end of June . Reality is full of all kinds of noises, not just echoes or smalltalk and I believe in you, I believe in you …!!!…

Shoegazing / For Emily (Alt. Version) 03:41
lyrics
buy track
A Mexican beach band is slowly killing a song It’s an Italien wedding and everything seems wrong I’m waiting for Emily, hope she won’t be long so for now I’ll order another beer Emily rushes in as the bride takes her groom While she hugs me, I dream in her perfume And how I met her in the dressing room she wrote something on the wall A great deal of hours spent gazing at my shoes Locked in a tower with nothing left to loose Being a line in a modern mans blues /to be alive in a modern mans blues Emily talks about music as I try to keep my cool About Bob and George and Bowie and a spirit, that couldn’t stop drolling and all of her plans, now she is leaving school I peer at her over my third beer I wanna kiss her, but haven’t got the nerve So I just look at her, trying to observe and find a soft spot in the beautiful curves then I start drinking her wine A great deal of hours spent gazing at my shoes Locked in a tower with nothing left to loose Being a line in a modern mans blues /to be alive in a modern mans blues A Mexican beach band is still murdering a song It was an Italian weeding but now there all gone Emily makes me smile, it’s just before dawn She makes me gaze at my shoes

Greetings From The North (Alt. Version) 04:39
lyrics
buy track
Greetings From The North In a small town you hear about Another life, day in day out I use days and hours Just gazing at the flowers The sun is shining bright Country music in the night It’s only in my dream I have this bluesy (kind of ) theme Greetings from the North If you wonder I’m staying at the shore It’s a quiet place Greetings from the North If you wonder I’m staying at the shore It’s so quiet now A thought from a broken scene An angry kind of keen Which now is far behind But is still tangling in my mind Greetings from the North If you wonder I’m staying at the shore It’s a quiet place Greetings from the North If you wonder I’m staying at the shore For ever now

lyrics

Rise Up To Pray For The Dawn Sleepers, you know what to do Stay in your beds ‘till we are through Rise up to pry for the dawn Change what you might and go on Change what you might and go on Sleepers you know what went wrong longing was lost and it’s gone at noon we’ll hear what they say they’ll probably lie anyway Sleep while the dawn drifts away Sleepers, your dreams must do I’ll go the same way as you

Flashlight Beam (Ambient Version) 03:45
lyrics
buy track
Waiting for your sign Flashlight beams Night is still, and I’m chasing dreams Looking round the room, looking round my room Here we go, it’s time There’s you light Hold my breath and count Count to five Slip into the night Slip into the night Take me with you when you go and all I ever know Its blissful thinking just flowing down the road It’s up to me and you to figure out what to do With endless roads and skies of purple blue Tip toes across the lawn slipping out No one knows I’m gone They’ll find out This is what we do, this is what we do Take me with you when you go and all I ever know It’s blissful thinking just flowing down the road It’s up to me and you to figure out what to do With endless roads and skies of endless blue
