When You're Not Near Me
When
you're not near me
The time don't seem to move as easy
When you're not near me
The sun don't seem to feel the same
The days don't shine as brightly
And the nights don't taste as sweet
And this soul of mine feels lost and imcomplete
When you're not near me
When you're not near me
When
you're not near me
I make the sound of one hand clapping
When you're not near me
I leave no footprints in the sand
And I can find no solace in the lonely silver sea
And I'm only half as strong and half as free
When you're not near me
When you're not near me
Don't
be long my love
Oh, don't be long my love
It won't be long until
I hold you in my arms again
Don't
be long my love
Oh, don't be long my love
It won't be long until
I hold you in my arms again
When
you're not near me
There is no laughter in my spirit
When you're not near me
There is no spirit in my laugh
You
are like a magnet to that iron part in me
And this longing never seems to let me be
When you're not near me
When you're not near me
When you're not near me
Oo-Oo my love, when you're not near me
When you're not near me.......fade........
Full
Circle
(Gene Clark)
Funny
how the circle turns around
First you're up and then you're down again
Though the circle takes what it may give
Each time around it makes it live again
Funny
how the circle is a wheel
And it can steal someone who is a friend
Funny how the circle takes you flying
And if it's right it brings it back again
Funny
how the circle turns around
Ya think you're lost and then you're found again
Though you always look for what ya know
Each time around there's something new again
Funny
how the circle is a wheel
And it can steal someone who is a friend
Funny how the circle takes you flying
And if it's right it brings it back again
Funny
how the circle is a wheel
And it can steal someone who is a friend
Funny how the circle takes you flying
And if it's right it brings it back again
Reason
To Run
Pecos
mountains in the fading light
Shadows stretching 'til they're clean out of sight
How could anything that felt so right
At the same time feel so wrong
At the same time feel so wrong
All
these questions, baby, all these fears
Kept me running through the best of my years
I pray this storm inside me someday clears
But these scars run so damn deeply
But these scars run so damn deep in me
There's
a reason for everything, they say
That's under the sun
For every reason to stay
I find a reason to run
I find a reason to run
Seems
I've always had these friends of mine
The smoke, the bottle, and the fine white line
Keep me company throught the crush of time
But these changes come so slowly
And these changes come so slow to me
There's
a reason for everything, they say
That's under the sky
For every reason to love
There's a reason to cry
There's
a reason for everything, they say
That's under the sun
For every reason to stay
I find a reason to run
I find a reason to run
Once
In Love
Once
in love you'll always be a lover
Once is all it takes
You will give your heart up to another
Even if it breaks
You can say this fever's sure to leave you
It's bound to fade with time
And you can lie, but your heart just won't believe you
Hearts just aren't that blind
CHORUS
Some say loves's a game but she holds all the cards
The hands are never ours to choose
And once love has made her play
She never goes away
Win or lose
The
well runs dry and it takes its time in filling
And sometimes seems so deep
And even though the flesh is often willing
The spirit gets so weak
Repeat
CHORUS
Once
in love you'll always be a lover
Bide your time 'til then
If you should lose there'll always be another
So you can try again
You can try again
Whispers In The
Wind
Like
a wraith she ambles aimlessly
Through the mists along the shore
She wraps the foggy night around her like a warming shawl
Leaves wildflowers at my door
She
come to me when she needs company
Weaves her web around my soul
She comes to me to free those wild, burning, passion fires
She cannot control
And
in the morning light I know that she'll be gone
And then the lonely hours begin
And all she leaves behind to find her in the dawn
Are whispers in the wind
And
in the shadows of the candlelight
She takes comfort in my touch
And then she pulls away and leaves before the candles die
Or before she feels too much
And
in the morning light I know that she'll be gone
And then the lonely hours begin
And all she leaves behind to find her in the dawn
Are whispers in the wind
And
all she leaves behind to find her in the dawn
Are whispers in the wind
This
Heart
CHORUS
This heart - this heart
Has been beaten down and battered
This heart - this heart
Has been torn apart and scattered
But what's left of this heart of mine
I will lay down in your hands
'Cause in the light of your love
This heart still stands
Well
I'd been walking down a one way street
Filled with sorrow and confusion
Searching every single face I'd meet
For some heaven I could hold
And when I felt like I was running dry
And love was always gonna pass me by
You brought me out of the rain and in from the cold
Repeat
CHORUS
Well
I believe for every wayward soul
Crying out for its completion
There's another that will make it whole
That's just waiting to be found
And I confess that I was losing faith
And I'd all but given up the chase
When you took hold of my heart and turned it around
Repeat
CHORUS
(After
instrumental)
What's left of this heart of mine I will lay down in your hands
'Cause in the light of your love this heart still stands
Repeat
CHORUS
Fade.....
Reach
Haven Postcard
Well
the first breath of autumn blows through the trees
And the nights are getting long and growing colder
And the maples are turning and the fields have gone brown
And the waves against the shore make such a sad sound
Now
there's a meal on the table and a fire in the stove
And a candle burning brightly by the stairway
And a lamp in the window that shines out to sea
And I wish so much tonight that you were here with me
Now
the moon is in danger of running aground
As she sweeps the tattered clouds above the island
And the stars lay like diamonds on the breast of the sea
And I wonder where you are and if you're thinking of me
CHORUS
Now I've grown so accumstomed to having you near
And I miss you so madly when you are not here
When I think how you love me oh, it brings me to tears
And I wish so much tonight that you were here with me
Oh, I wish so much tonight that you were here with me
Well
I dropped you a postcard today in the mail
With a picture of a sailing ship upon it
And I tried to say something that was clever and clear
But the only thing I wrote was that "I wish you were here"
Repeat
CHORUS
Drawing
Pictures
Paper
people in a raging fire
Trying to keep the cold away
Talking tangled in a thorny briar
Lost with nothing left to say
Always racing for the night to hide us
Never listening to the love inside us
No
one ever told us we were wrong
No one said when love is weak
It may be getting strong
She searched for a shoulder
And mine was gone
Drawing
pictures in the sand
Trying to tease the time to stay
Wishing water never met the land
To wash the dreams away
Taking turns at being friends and lovers
Hearing what we both believe from others
No
one ever told us we were wrong
No one said when love is weak
It may be getting strong
She searched for a shoulder
And mine was gone
Icarus
Ascending
Soaring
alone upon a threatening wind
Just fix your eyes on the horizon
Cut off from everything you've known or have been
I shouldn't think it's so surprisin'
Spiraling
upward on a freshening lift
Reaching the realms of fleet Apollo
You have been given the most sacred of gifts
You must be fearless now and follow
CHORUS
So don't look down
Though your heart may be weary
Don't look down
Though your wings are on fire
Don't look down
Though the night may seem endless
There's a reason you're flying this fast and this far
Let your faith be your strength
And your love by your guiding star
Venturing
further than the length of your sight
Out past the reach of your beginnings
There is a gamble in each proud act of flight
But the losses pale before the winnings
Circling
and diving with this freedom you've found
Illusion blows apart and scatters
There is no darkness in this place that we're bound
Love is the only thing that matters
Repeat
CHORUS
Earth Anthem
And we
are but an island, in an ocean
This is our home, third from the sun
Let it be evergreen, let it be evergreen
And
we are but an island, in an ocean
This is our home, third from the sun
God, keep it evergreen
To keep it evergreen, I would lay my life down
And
we are but an island, in an ocean
This is our home, third from the sun
Let it be evergreen, let it be evergreen
