Here I am again
Singing the same old tune
Holding everything as close as I can to you
If love is anywhere
Mine still belongs with you
But I'm holding it in my hand

She lays her head
Upon your shoulder
But all I see is the way that you hold her
You live in your house
With a beautiful view
And I live in an your apple tree

I am a songbird
Singing out your window
Telling stories in the shade
And I can't fly away
I can't fly away

Imagine me
Flying around the world
Or Italy on a terraced hill
No matter where life's taking me
I may still be up in your apple tree

I am a songbird
Singing out your window
Telling stories in the shade
And I can't fly away
I can't fly away
No I can't fly away
I can't fly away
I'll follow wherever you go
'Cause I can't fly away

. . .


Have I ever seen such kindness
Such resigned delight all in one glance
Right when you pass me
I watch, you see
You smile, I breathe
Air in my chest
I'm trying my best

The sun left me so quickly
I am stuck under the moon
I want to belong to you

I pray no one will find you
I'll stay right where I am
'Til you come back
Don't let me lose you
Before there's a chance to begin

Suddenly light on my feet
With a sweet rearrange of the day
Everything's changed now

One quick exchange
It's not the same
Kind of goodbye
Gone with a sigh

The sun left me so quickly
I am stuck under the moon
I want to belong to you

I pray no one will find you
I'll stay right where I am
'Til you come back
Don't let me lose you
Before there's a chance to begin

I wanna belong to you

I pray no one will find you
I'll stay right where I am
'Til you come back
Don't let me lose you
Before there's a chance to begin

. . .



I'm gonna write you down
gonna toss you around
gonna make you want everything you haven't found
gonna hold your hand
and ask you stand 10 feet away.
ohh it's just like you said,
I live in my head.
I'm saving up all that I can 'til I'm dead.
It's always the same, and never the same way.


. . .


I don't know how the west was won
How the ocean let all the sailors come
They came over one by one if only just to see

I don't know how happiness gets hidden in the wilderness
I'm leaving in the morning with my paddle and my lime

I don't know how to find you when
All I've been is a lighted window
Waiting for the dark to make it's way back into light

And you will hold me in your arms
And you will hold me in your arms

Maybe I'm just a pilgrim who is trying to make sense of you now
Pray the wind will take me where the space meets up with time
Where you will hold me in your arms

. . .


I, I want to wish you well
I didn't watch you go
Cause I suppose I don't know how
I, I will remember you
Not the way you left but how you lived
And what you knew

I, I want to feel your hands
I want to feel your fire burning
Right from where I stand

I'll find my way
Cause you showed me how

I, I want toknow it's you
When I hear your voice inside my head
Inside my room
I, want to touch the sky
I want to see the stars twinkle
Like they were your eyes

I'll find my way
You showed me
I'll find my way
Cause you showed me how

I, I want to smell your scent
I want to breathe the air I did before
Before you left

I, I want to wish you well
The only reason my heart beats
Is cause you showed it how

I'll find my way
You show me
I'll find my way
You show me
I'll find my way
Cause you showed me how
You show me how
You showed me how

. . .


Everyone needs someone to touch them
Everyone needs someone to hold
So why's it so damn hard to love when we're alone

I've lived a lifetime telling stories
About the way we live and die
When love was born it was a mystery
I'm yet to find

And when I wake up in the morning
There is a twinkle in my eye
That maybe someday you will meet me
In the light

I'll let you whisper
I'll let you hold me
Do what you came to
You are the only
I will not cry out
I will not fight you
I'll let you have me
All that you want to
I'll give you sunsets
I'll give you kisses
I'll give you songs that
That no one else hears
It's not enough love
Until you know me
Until you touch me
Until you hold me

. . .


You were in a dream I had
Doing dishes at the laundry mat
And then you smiled at me
You said lets hide and seek
I'm gonna count to three
Where did you go

One step forward two steps back
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow

I saw you on a downtown street
Eating peaches in an apple tree
You said take my hand
We'll be a marching band
They'll love us in Japan
Where did you go?

One step forward two steps back
So funny I forgot to laugh
You lead me down the garden path
And I will follow
I will follow

. . .


When you're weary
And haunted
And your life is not what you wanted
When you're trying so hard to find it

When the lies speak the loudest
When your friends are starting to leave
When you're broken by people like me

I hurt too, I hurt too

When an ocean sits right between us
There is no sign that we'll ever cross
You should know now that I feel the loss

I hurt too, I hurt too

Even though you are drowning in valley's of echoes
I believe there is peace in those hills up ahead
You will climb 'til you find places you'll never let go
And I will also be here praying just like I said

I hurt too, I hurt too

. . .


Audrey baby
Where's your tambourine
Gypsy girl around the world your sailing
Cardboard waves
Moving left and right
Catch the breeze that moves you to the sunlight
Do your best
Get here soon
Listen for the clouds that I have sent you
And you will hear them
You will hear them cry
You will hear them
You will hear them cry
I've been sleeping
Harder than a stone
Trying not to wake up 'til you get home

. . .


Hearts bend 'cause they can't break
When they can't take
All that is given to them

Glass eyes on your sad face
It's a sad story somebody's written on you
Love in my heart, right from the start
So please take me with you

Birds sing out the window
Sing out the window sing
Do you hear those birds
sing out the window
Sing out the window sing

Take me with your shovel
We'll burry all your troubles
All your troubles

Oh the light is always on you
Always in the light
The light is always on you
Always on you
Always in the light

. . .


You could be my white night
And I could be your fairy tale
And you could come and save me
But that is not the end

I will wear will wear a white dress
You will paint a sunset
Life will be a love fest
That's how it all begins

Say say, oh playmate
Come out and play with me
And bring your dollies three
Climb up my apple tree
Slide down my rainbow
Into my cellar door
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more

But the world can spin so madly
And love can hurt so badly
And stories end so sadly
But this is not the end

You still have my heartache
I still have your sweater
Things they will get better
Oh, but not today

Say say oh playmate
I cannot play with you
My dolly's got the flue
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Aint got no rainbow
Aint got no cellar door
But we'll be jolly friends
Forever more

Say say, oh playmate
Come out and play with me
And bring your dollies three
Climb up my apple tree
Slide down my rainbow
Into my cellar door
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more
