Sailing on past
Space and time that’s
How I’ll get back to you
Sailing on past
Space and time that’s
How I’ll get back to you
From the Wilshire
To the future
Take my footprint
Past the sunset
From the Rio
To the astro
That’s how I’ll get back
That’s how I’ll get back
That’s how I’ll get back to you
Sailing on past
Space and time that’s
How I’ll get back to you

Heaven's Nail and Hammer
04:42
|
|||
In the night
With voices low, low, low
And all the cars
Are off the road
That’s when heaven's nail and hammer
Starts nailing holes in the sky
I see heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes
I see heaven’s nail and hammer
Nailing holes in the sky
I see heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes
Now on with the show
I see Slow Down Jo
Who died long ago
I'm still down here with the old man Jo, Jo
We’ll see heaven’s nail and hammer
Nailing holes in the sky
We’ll see heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes
We’ll see heaven’s nail and hammer
Nailing holes in the sky
We’ll see heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes
Now when this show is through
You get a hard hat
Silver hammer and steel toe boots
And if you’re lucky, if you’re lucky you join
That heavenly crew
Look up there, little kid
Way up there, little kid
And see if I do
Join that heaven's nail and hammer
Nailing holes in the sky
Heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes
You’ll see heaven’s nail and hammer
Nailing holes in the sky
You’ll see heaven, heaven, heaven
Through the holes

Shut the door on yesterday
Bring down the lightning in a jar
Proud Mary wheels so proudly rolling
Long after daytime ends
How do you like to celebrate
Now this fire is embers and ash?
Blue heron echo down the motorway
Says “Can we make this night last?”
Every traveling show
Needs a host with the most
Who can conjure a bed from a couch
“If its a wrestling pin
That the worlds got you in
You'd better have yourself a friend
When your lights go out”
“Tomorrows outta my range
Here now’s all there's to know
We shut the door on yesterday
Here at this traveling show”

Independent Man
04:31
|

When I’m not home with you
Find me on the phone with you
Saying “I need you bad”
Like Major Tom without you
Way too far gone without you
Cause I need you so bad
I need you so, so bad
So bad that I can’t understand
What I meant when I said
"I’m your independent man"
Can’t get high without you
Won’t get by without you
Cause I need you bad
Way too far gone without you
Cause I need you so bad
I need you so, so bad
So bad that I can’t understand
What I meant when I said
"I’m your independent man"

Unreal City
04:05
|

All my life my heart in search of what?
Well who can say the words
In a dream I hitched a helicopter ride
I saw the big one strike
And the forest slide into some kind of
Continent divide
(And so) Anywhere the sun strikes the pavement
Anywhere there’s feet on the street
I feel the most in the moment
I found peace in the
Unreal City
Unreal City
Unreal City
Where the big one sleeps tonight
On the metro page in search of when and where
And who can say the words
In a dream I saw the final tidal wave
Yeah I saw the big one break
And the forest start into some kind of
Continental shake
(And so) Anywhere the sun strikes the pavement
Anywhere there’s feet on the street
I feel the most in the moment
I found peace in the
Unreal City
Unreal City
Unreal City
Where the big one sleeps tonight
Now anywhere the rain strikes the pavement
Anywhere there’s feet on the street
I feel the most in the moment
I found peace in the
Unreal City
Unreal City
Unreal City
Where the big one sleeps tonight

Real Silence

Silence
Real silence
That is all stars can say
And tonight it’s radiating
Downward
Silence
Real silence
Is the only strike
These mission bells
Will get tonight
And if yesterday was bombs away
Pray tonight we find the antidote
Where silence, real silence
Explodes
And if yesterday was bombs away
Pray tonight we find the antidote
Where silence, real silence
Silence, real silence
Silence, real silence
Explodes

Along the Santa Fe Trail
03:08
|

Angels come to paint the desert nightly
When the moon is beaming brightly
Along the Santa Fe Trail
Stardust scattered all along the highway
On a rainbow-colored skyway
Along the Santa Fe Trail
Beside you
I'm riding every hill and dale
Wide shadows hide you
Just like a pretty purple veil
Thereby hangs a tale
I found you
And the mountains that surround you
Are the walls I built around you
Along the Santa Fe Trail
Beside you
I'm riding every hill and dale
Wide shadows hide you
Just like a pretty purple veil
Thereby hangs a tale
I found you
And the mountains that surround you
Are the walls I built around you
Along the Santa Fe Trail
(along the Santa Fe Trail, along the Santa Fe Trail)
I found you along the Santa Fe Trail
(along the Santa Fe Trail, along the Santa Fe Trail)
I found you along the Santa Fe Trail
(along the Santa Fe Trail, along the Santa Fe Trail)

Chamber Music
03:13
|

Opening your heart
One chamber left to go
That’s the one the music knows
The one the music knows
Baby hold on tight
Baby don’t let go
To the world the world don’t know
The world the world don’t know
Sole mio
Cantobo mihi
Sole mio
Cantobo mihi
Sole mio
Cantobo mihi
Sole mio
Cantobo mihi
Cantobo mihi
Baby hold on tight
One chamber left to go
That’s the one the music knows
The one the music knows
The one
The one

Torch

Up on the rooftops trying to jump across
Schoolyard blacktop and looking down
Westcote and I and cypress runes
Steps on the gravel the only sound
And when I look down
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
She said “between you and me and the lamp-post
We can be anyone you wanna be now the leap is through”
When I thought that she was gone
She took my by the arm and said
“Even you can take the soul where you want it to”
And I’m living proof
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
“Heart beats in rhythm to its own”
