Meadows

Does the wind
Blow through the trees
When you close your eyes?
And does your heart
almost skip a beat
when its in your sight?
And does your soul
almost feel complete
when you see those skies
up above, way above
the meadows in your mind?
Way up high
way above the meadows
in your mind.
Block, block it out.
Pull down the shades
to your soul.
You don't have to look.
At the world
When it gets this cold.
And its colors are gone
cast your eyes up
to the clouds up above
way up above
the meadows
in your mind.
Way up high
Way above the meadows
in your mind.

Modern Waves

As is his habit he's sitting with the TV on
watching static and old reruns
And he's seen them all before so he knows what will happen next
No surprises and no regrets
His family comes to visit him
asks about his medicine
but they seem so tense
Why they have to scream at him?
he's only hard of hearing them
when they make no sense
But the good old days
come through nice and warm
on the modern waves
that cut right through the storm
when he tries real hard
he can tune them in
and be transported back
to when life made sense
He turns up the volume to block out the traffic sounds
from the highway they just laid down
on his little country road where he's live for half a century
for its peace and tranquility
but everything is faster now
not just the speed limit
his kids with their computers
and grandkids on their internets
but the good old days
come through nice and warm
on the modern waves
that cut right through the storm
when he tries real hard
he can tune them in
and be transported back
to when life made sense

Evergreen

When I saw you underneath
the arms of trees
it's the prettiest thing I've seen
Evergreen
When you sat down next to me
I could hardly breathe
down with the rock and leaves
Evergreen
Chorus:
Who would ever believe
When they'd all fall
you'd be standing with me?
Who would ever conceive
In a world that's gone grey
You would always be...
Evergreen?
Through the fire and the frost
through the victory and the loss
through the pleasure and the pain
you've remained
with me like the air I breathe
and the ground underneath
how can you always be
Evergreen?

Betrayed By The Wind
02:52

for forty days
we were blessed blessed by the wind
but then it just stopped
and our spirits all dropped
we felt betrayed
as if by a friend
By the winds betrayed
Adrift, in our final days
and we slip further further into our graves
I admit we were all
Afraid
We rush in too much
we take on a weight that's too great
and find ourselves crushed
into dust at the whims of a gust
before we can know it's started to blow
it's already scattering us
The gulls awoke us on the fifty seventh day
We knew that land could not be very far away
The winds were strong and blew us towards the beach
But we hit a rock and had to stop before it ever could be reached
For a hundred days
we sat on this rock and tried to get off
in a million useless ways, but we've stayed in place
