A Way To Love You 3:18

Close The Door To Your Room 2:43

Close the door to your room
let the world roll by unseen
You've been loving all day
but you're tired of the places you've been
and fantasies have grown up
around the touch of your eyes
so return now to glory
where understanding begins
in a sigh
This day to day of halloween
is already taking its toll
and its long before midnight
when all of the masks
will surely fall
in the end all of the heavy ones
look so bad in their pride
and you're only as strong
as the wisdom
that washes you inside
Friends who understand
I don't like to see you feel
so left alone
but it's time for me to unwind
with whoever would let me be alone
In the unspoken spaces
the silence is filled with new light
and magic depends on letting things flow
protected from all that is outside
"Go away leave us be"
came a voice from inside the room
and the caller shook his head
feeling swept away into gloom
then turning his head he heard the noise
of commotion outside
and returned to his room
where with closed door
he smiled and sighed

Ambition - On The Streets - Within Our Mind - Morning Sun - Love's Projections ...Medley 10:05

I'm listening to ambition now
before it gets the best of me
He's the driver of this train I'm riding
and he's as mean as he can be
Always somewhere up around the next corner
asking "How much closer do you want to be?"
I got some money in my pocket, but then,
ambition tells me "go out and get some more bread"
I've got a friend and we get together, but then
ambition tells me "you keep moving ahead"
And when I get the chance to give love away
he's saying "keep yourself inside and keep me fed"
I've listened to ambition calling
I'm going to find out who's calling to me
Through the coaches and round up into the engine cab
there's no one here, just a mirror to see
I see my reflection in the mirror, asking
"How much closer do you want to be?"

...On The Streets

Been on the streets since sundown
won't go home 'til the break of day
Yes, I've been on the streets since sundown
and I won't go home 'til the break of day
Ever since my babe left
Lord you know I've been feeling this way
No imitation woman
can take the place of my babe
No No No No No No No No No
No imitation woman
can take the place of the delta lady
When I think about her lovin'
I got to hang my head and cry
Well the time has come to leave this town
everyone's face just looks the same
Yes, the time has come to leave this town
everyone's face just looks the same
but my babe might be back today
I'll stick around for one more day
One more day

...Within Our Mind

Momentary weakness
leads to
solitary sleepless
nights of fear fire
within our mind
Destiny returning
brings us
shattered nerves burning
tense and angry
within our mind
Complicated
as we want life to be
We react
to what we really want to be
unity, harmony, eternally
We could see it be
in spite of our eyes searching

...Morning Sun

The morning sun
shines upon
the path of those
who walk within
But we are not in sunlight as we play
when we stop
and pack ourselves away
it will be the time for you to go your way
Where will you go?
What will you know?
What will you say?
Are you waiting for love?
You can't wait forever
thinking about thinking
in circles
in circles
in circles

...Love's Projections

Living in love's projections
leaving forgotten impressions
with some care and some understanding
we will love the demon projection
to be free.
Living free isn't easy
Do you know what I mean?
Feelings are going wild
in breath taking intensity.
With heart fire, wolves are tamed
and then the leopards are next set free
and so it goes
on and on
some call it mastery.
And what it's all for
is what you will
carefully.
Oh, you already know
how the love flows on and on
Rising and falling tide
Wash my footprints from the shoreline.

Pure Diamond - When You're Loving 4:04

Welcome Home 1:59

Here is the path
of warm light
Dancers singing praises
in their breathing
Welcome home sweet lover
welcome home
Heroes sigh gladly
and surrender
to cast no shadow in such
a warm light
Welcome home sweet lover
welcome home
When we get together
some people say we're crazy
and no account
with our giggling jingle bells
dancing to the music in our ears
but to those who feel secure
their dimples come to show
they smile on us and say
God bless you
God bless you
God bless you
Welcome home sweet lover
welcome home
Welcome home sweet sweet lover
welcome home

Spanish Wine 2:34

We're Not Strangers Anymore 2:37

We're not strangers anymore
darlin', can I come home with you?
There's no more proud confusion
in anything we do
They say that home is where the heart is
darlin' that's where I want to be home with you
and no place else
Night falls down all around us
shadows fade
and we're left standing alone
I want to be with you darlin'
I'm singing this song
They say that home is where the heart is
darlin' please take me home
We're not strangers anymore
darlin', can I come home with you?
There's no more proud confusion
in anything we do
They say that home is where the heart is
darlin' I want to be home with you

Wildflower In The Stone 1:49

It's All Just Enough To Know I Love You 3:02

High As We Can Stand 5:14

2002

Vision of Peace

Suddenly
in the midst of fierce battle
sworn enemies lay down their arms
Recognizing each other
brothers and sisters embrace
The others
long lost friends and lovers
rejoice
Great vats of metal boil
as weapons are melted down
and tools are cast
Music
unheard for centuries
fills the streets
Dancers emerge
from all corners
The whole world erupts
in sweet song
