Good Times 05:18
There was a time we all went through When Mother Nature told her children You are not children anymore I cannot save you from what is in store They'll cover up your apple eyes And dress you up in clothes you'll despise They'll put a price over your head A heavy halo you've been handed down Time goes by, and you couldn't take it Another sigh, come on we can make it Good times that we are gonna have Good times that lie right just ahead Good times we're gonna have Another trick, another trade Another brick on the road to your grave Beneath the sycamore I sang All in all just a leaf in the fall There was one summer I was sure I was in love with your intentions But are they cruel? Are they cruel? Are they cruel? Time goes by, and you couldn't take it Another sigh, come on we can make it Good times that we are gonna have Good times that lie right just ahead Good times we're gonna have The time to forget it over The time to forgive is now Where were you when I needed you Where were you when I needed to Get, Forget Good times that we are gonna have Good times that lie right just ahead Good times we're gonna have It's over for me, oh my darlin' It's over for me, oh my dear

Cassiopeia 04:58
When we first hung out I took you to Great Falls And you kept apologizing 'cause we had to walk But you're a good sport 'cause you laughed it off And I was so excited to show you this spot Our love is heaven sent Our love is heaven sent We were sitting there up upon the rocks And I was interested getting hip to your thoughts Oh then we climbed down, headed off for home And I made a best friend that day, but how could've I known? How could've I known that our love is heaven sent Our love is heaven sent You can read me anytime you want As we laughing I stopped and thought Where have you been all along? All along I've been away Our love is heaven sent Our love is heaven sent How could've I known? How could've I known?

Tell me where your love comes from If I told you, would you still come home? Pallid in your wedding veil Does the sweet song Make you tremble to remember? That's right You said you knew a million boys That they would sing for you, but Where were they when you fell in love? And it's love it's like a marathon in May But if you stick around it's One hell of a ride, God I'm sure you'll adore In this year of Jubilee We have grown up Separate pines of independence That's right You said you knew a million boys That they would sing for you, but Where were they when you fell in love? And it's love it's like a marathon in May But if you stick around it's One hell of a ride, God I'm sure you'll adore Well, that's right I always knew about those boys How they would sing for you, but What overcame me on the palisades? That night as I approached you on the green And took your hand to tell you (I want to hold you, I want to kiss you) One hell of a ride God I'm sure (I want to hold you and I want to kiss you) One hell of a ride I'm sure I'll endure

Whirl 04:10
Rollin' your eyes like a cigarette Here in the whirl of machinery I die Hypnotic hymns from the funeral Wake here I am, sing the melody To me Oh don't worry about me Don't worry about us And I lost my face in a magazine And hearin' the whirl of machinery I cry Oh don't worry about me Don't worry about us Dies Irae Dies Irae Oh don't worry about me Don't worry about us Worry about us Worry about us In the year of jubilee We will sing the rosary Promise me you'll worry about Smoke rings blow over me Singing you rosary Mary go round and round Sorrowful Mysteries Sorrowful, sorrowful, sorrowful Whirl

You said can you come with me A couple of states or two And when we're in Chicago I play those Casio keys all night, but Slow down, Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire Slow down, Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire I met you in the summer The greenest season I have ever known And when we're in the graveyard I climb over the garden wall, but Slow down Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire Slow down Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire Then again, then again, again Maybe I don't know what's good for me Then again, then again I don't know I don't know Someone told me to slow down, Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire Slow down, Jerusalem, uh-huh Slow down on fire I saw you down there by the sepulcher And you had those red ribbons in your hair And you were smiling at me and drinking Coca-Cola And I hear you in the wind over Michigan Pale as the night (where are you) Pale was the night (where are you) Then again, then again, again Maybe I don't know what's good for me Then again, then again I don't know I don't know Someone told me to slow down, Jerusalem (where are you) Slow down on fire (where are you) Slow down, Jerusalem (where are you) Slow down on fire (where are you)

Be Mean 04:52
I'm on the path I thought I chose Never once had I been told What it means to be alone I don't think I'll really ever know 'Cause once in a while I turn the dial On the world around me But I don't think I'll really ever know I don't think I'll really ever know Once in a while when I try to be kind I loosen my grip and I start to be mean Once in a while when I try to be kind I tighten my grip, but I'm losing my mind Time is a tap that never slows Another drop, but no repose I guess the water's just too cold I don't think I'll really ever know 'Cause once in a while I turn the dial On the world around me But I don't think I'll really ever know I don't think I'll really ever know Once in a while when I try to be kind I loosen my grip and I start to be mean Once in a while when I try to be kind I tighten my grip, but I'm losing my mind Tell me who you are You never tell me You never tell me who you are Tell me who you are Tell me who you are Who are you? Who are you? Once in a while when I try to be kind I loosen my grip and I start to be mean Once in a while when I try to be kind I tighten my grip, but I'm losing my mind Are you Who are you? Who are you?

Out here with my conscience I don't feel like speaking If blood is so ugly Then life is in vain Another year older And this is the last mystery A sorrowful decade For a sorrowful world On Friday the 13th Someone has a birthday Don't make them unlucky Just means they need love Again Don't cry for my darling For me Daniel and don't Cry for me darling, for me Daniel And don't Don't cry for my darling For me Daniel and don't Cry for me darling, for me Daniel And don't Tonight Tonight you're on my mind And for the rest of my life I feel the sting then think of when you kissed me As we played your song But now it's done You said you can't go on I should've flown to your side If it all levels out I hope that you'd find a way I hope so now And I feel so down And I can't stop now Wish you were still here Daniel, I miss you And the tears fall now And they won't slow down Wish you were still here Daniel, I miss you

I was thinkin' Oh brother of mind where've you been? The year that you moved out I started to notice some things There was a cough in your room I went to see if it was you So ran to your door How was I hoping for more? And I was like oh promising good news And I was like oh come on with that good news I was walkin' I didn't know what to do Nobody's talkin' Even with what we're goin' through, yeah It's enough to shake me Not havin' my brother around Just enough to shape me You've me cryin' out And I was like oh promising good news And I was like oh come on with that good news Again Strange You know you're estranged, brother Estranged You know you're a strange, brother Estranged You know you a strange brother Estranged You know you're a strain And I was like oh promising good news And I was like oh come on with that good news Talkin' 'bout that good news all my life and time I wanted love I wanted you I want to change this world around you I wanted love I wanted you I want to change this world around you Love you Who are you? Change Why don't ya?

I know where my good luck I know where my good luck is I'm in love with laughter Part of me you'll never get If you want to know why Stick with me and begin again Again, again Memories are fading Memories to be replaced So draw from all the good times Fill in all the empty space If you want to know how Stick with me and begin again Again, again I know where my good luck I know where my good luck is If you want to know where Look around, don't be scared Start a band with your friends It's not hard to begin again Again, again
