Purple Platypus Parade
03:31
|

Welcome to the magical place
Come to my arms and let us embrace
Here’s a little song to put a spark in your wheels
I wish you would tell me just how it feels
And I hope that you’re always happy
And never afraid
And I hope you dream of the purple platypus parade
The world is love and love is free
So I’ll let it all go and shine on as me
You took the short way home
Can you see what you’ve made
Cuz you’ve left me here at the purple platypus parade…

Slow-Motion Replay
04:04

In the downtown coffee shop
The young intelligentsia wannabes
Discuss how to recognize the end of history
They say it’s hard to see
The meteor as it falls
But it didn’t seem that hard to me
Cuz I saw you fall
In slow-motion replay
And I saw you fall
Down all the way
Yes I saw you fall…
In slow-motion replay
The smoke around me
Flavors my second drink
While patrons half my age swill coffee to help them think
While I think of you
Through this haze of memory
And I wish that you were here sitting right next to me
ch
Nothing is something
I know that this much is true
They buried you deep and now there’s nothing left of you
But I wanna believe
In that magic of your soul
That will walk here beside me till my own bell tolls

Spin
03:29

We waste our time
Time that isn’t ours to give
We waste our time
Learning just how not to live
And we’re scared of what to do
And we’re scared of what to say
But like a roulette wheel
Like the tumblers in a slot machine
Like the wheels on a Lamborghini going ninety down the road
This is your time
This is your time
This is your one and only time…
To spin
I knew a man
He was my friend
I knew a man
Who caused his own untimely end
And I don’t know what to do
And I don’t know what to say
ch
And the world spins around
And the world spins around
Even though you’re gone
The world keeps spinning around
ch
Just spin… oh yeah…
So spin
Spin

Medicated
05:37
|

You gave yourself away
Bled until today
When I could cry
Do what you must, follow your heart
But I’m torn apart
Nothing’s the same
I don’t know how you died
Just know I cried
When I heard your name
Did the mirror watch you bleed?
Do you concede
That it was wrong?
And what I want is just to know
Before you go
Answer me this
Did you try to call?
Did you try at all?
And did you think of me
Before you ran away?
‘Cuz now I wish I was medicated
Gently sedated so I could breathe...

Photographic Memories
06:42
|
|||
I remember every hair on your body
Like it was yesterday
I wish that I was somebody
Whom you saw a different way
I will penetrate the darkness
With vision and light
And even if you vanish
I will hold you close tonight
It’s not obsession
It’s not obsession at all
It’s photographic memories
It’s photographic memories of you
I touched someone yesterday
And their skin felt just like yours
Just another body
Washed upon my shores
I felt the night inside me
Rise like a dragon’s flame
You will remember me forever
And that I won this final game
ch
You may paint your wicked pictures
You may think that you're wise
You may write your own history
But the truth outshines the lies
Don’t forget that I’ve touched
Something that you never knew
And it’s not obsession…

Fragile
03:54
|

I had a dream
That I held you in my arms
And I swear
You were made of feathers
I couldn’t hold you tight
For fear that you would just blow away
But that moment
It was a million forevers
‘Cause you’re fragile
I wanna love you tonight
You’re so fragile
Your bones are made of light
Oh you’re fragile
Just a breeze and you’re gone
Oh you’re so fragile
You’re the words within my song
I wanna be
A twenty-first century man
Who can see the future in your eyes
And I think you will
Love a twenty-first century man
Just to shed every tear that he cries
ch
Oh you’re fragile
Like a friend flying free
Oh you’re so fragile
You’re every star I see
You’re fragile
A vision made of light
Oh you’re so fragile
So please…
Love me tonight

Silent Now
04:38
|

I have stared at the sun, walked in the rain
But it’s silent now
I drank fruit of the vine, I was feeling so fine
But it’s silent now
And I want you to love like there’s no tomorrow
And I want you touch…
Touch the one’s you love, touch them with a wild abandon
And I want you to give as if you want for nothing
And I want you to live
Each and every moment… Each and every moment for you
I laughed in the night, then I cried in the light
But it’s silent now
I have given my heart, felt it torn apart
But it’s silent now
You, you can feel what you feel
I know it’s all too real
But it’s silent now
You, you can wish me goodbye
No, no don’t cry
‘Cause it’s silent now….

Red-Winged Blackbird
05:22
|
|||
It’s not the ones you love that make you fly
It’s not the ones that hurt you that you make cry
It’s not the facts or the truth that you make a lie
It’s not the war of words that took you to the sky
So sail on… alone
Red-winged blackbird
You listen to the questions when answers are everywhere
You listen to the fears when everything is hope
You listen to the nightmares which are really only dreams
You listen to the silence when all we hear are screams
ch
It’s all in the beat now
Pounding on the ground
It’s all in the beat now
Digging through the lost and found
It’s all in the beat now
Two sticks upon the drum
It’s all in the beat now
Hear the mourning of the one…
Red-winged blackbird
Oh… sail on...

Every Love
05:44
|
|||
It was another Saturday night
So I packed up my car
I carried myself with authority
As I stumbled with my guitar
I made my way to Shakespeare
With red wine painted so white
Where we danced in the rainbow
And a ghost flickered the light
Where I met a woman named Katherine
Who smiled as she named herself free
Just a word made made her freedom
And took her so far from me
Oh a woman is fluid temptation
A drink of sublime light
So I stumbled again with this guitar
Out alone into the night
But every love has a time and place
Every heart has a road to face
Every world has a sun to chase
Every fear is a moment of grace
Every touch is tangled in lace
Every breath has a measured pace
Every bet needs a joker and an ace
Every guitar needs a beat up case
Because
Every love
Every love
Every love has a time and place

Eyes of Blue
03:39

I still think of you
Even though children have been born
With eyes of blue
And it’s alright
I’m getting used to you being gone
Oh and it’s alright
It doesn’t feel like anything is wrong
But I still think of you
Even though lovers have been torn
And left in two
Oh I still think of you
Even though children have been born
With eyes of blue
And it’s alright
I don’t always think your name
Oh it’s alright
It feels like things are just the same
Oh, I still think of you
Even though lovers have been torn
And left in two
Oh, I still think of you
Even though children have been born
With eyes of blue
