Silent storm clouds gather in Windy woodlands rustling, they rustle Like the rain rain rain rain rain rain rain, like the rain rain rain rain rain Like the rain rain rain rain rain rain rain, like the rain rain rain rain rain Dry leaves skitter, gather speed Heart beats faster, and it feels, it feels Like the rain.... Driving colder, nights are long Frightening moments make us strong Like the rain...

I remember that day when she called me to say he had left them The pain in her voice as in spite of his choice she still loved him I said lady don't you know if he really wants to go you can't change him She declared through her tears if he can't face his fears then I'll beg him She said please Love me And our baby

Away Away 05:21
Shadows fall, shadows fall On the ground, on the ground Echoes call, echoes call But never a sound Creepy clouds, sneaky clouds Pallid wisps wind around Aching close, snaking close Just teasing you down They come And they're stealing time from you Take it slow, take it slow The hill is steep, hard to climb But when you're there, finally there The view is sublime They come And they're stealing time from you Creeping up to get you, fingers cold, they want you Faceless monsters lurking near Trying to confuse you, hoping that you'll lose yourself in darkness Laced with fear Away, away, just send them on their way Away, away, just send them on their way You're safe, you're safe, just send them on their way Away, away, just send them on their way

In the northlands, in the night There's a world that shimmers just beyond our sight There our memories become form And when I travelled there I found you safe and calm Things end too soon Somewhere near the moon, you shine Playing to the stars The brightest one is you Things end too soon And up there by the moon, you fly Your energy divides And I wrote you this tune With your wry smile, your guitar Your philosophy and knowledge all you are So much you gave me, gave us all Now your music and your laughter echoes still Things end too soon... I was sleeping, you were there And the sky outside was frantic dancing air Pink and yellow, swathes of green And the magic of it brought you to my dream Things end too soon... And I wrote you this tune. The least I could do.

Hyena 05:00
Your spiky face Is in my space Hyena-like and always right It's entertaining Your twitchy eyes Are cold and dry It's strange you need to dig at me You're quite delightful! Your busy nose It strikes a pose It wrinkles as if to give a sniff Do you need a hanky? You must be bored To feel so sore But I'm rolling on, I'm rolling on I'll just have a nice time And if ever there was a time to say whatever it would be now 'Cause it honestly doesn't bother me much however hard you frown
7.
No Words 04:23
Things unfold you see them coldly Watching, watching in pale sun Peaking round old doors, you're lonely Pacing, pacing, footsteps fading And we cry Now we're left with no words With no words, with no words, with no words With no words, with no words To say How did I let go? I failed when you were low And I I'm so sorry And we cry Now we're left with no words.....
