I find him in the night
Smoking Hoping
For time to slow
A complicated soul
Hurting Trying
To keep me safe
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire
As he stairs at the stars
The tears roll down
From the past
Pictures of a face
Fading
A curse and a blessing
Can we hold off?
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire
A brave and kind man
Stands before me
Do hold my hand
I’ll help you see
Again
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire
And as the bed unfolds
We cease fire

Here’s a snow ball
Of your big beautiful island
Shake it til it snows
Or rains
I’ve made it for you
I heard you cry this morning
I know how much you miss swinging
The blue sea
Iorana
Until you do go back
You heart will not belong to me
Iorana
A thousand miles away
I’ll have to wave and say goodbye
Iorana
My lover couldn’t stay
Iorana
Until you do go back
You heart will not belong to me
Iorana
A thousand miles away
I’ll have to wave and say goodbye
Iorana
My lover couldn’t stay

Slow down
Tears drop into my coffee
Goodbye
I’ve never been good at saying
I’ll be there
On the other side
If you need me
Give me
Your blue scarf
In case I get cold or lonely
I’ll have it
To remember you by
And to keep myself warm
On those cold winter nights
And to keep myself warm
On those cold winter nights
Don’t go
Just keep Holding my hand
The cold’s back You said
You’d stay until dawn
My baby’s not home
With me
Will you give me
Your blue scarf
In case I get cold or lonely I’ll have it
To remember you by
And to keep myself warm
On those cold winter nights
And to keep myself warm
On those cold winter nights
And those cold winter nights
By your side
If you need me
And those cold winter nights
By your side
If you need me
And those cold winter nights
By your side
If you need me

You chose Mary
And I chose John
You said Hello
They said he’s gone
Hey Child
Today ’s not the day Hey Dad
Life will find a way
You said you’d go
Enjoy the sun
I said come back
You’ll get burned
Hey Child
Today of all days Hey Dad
Life will find a way
And then the joy
Will find its way
And then the joy
And then the joy Joy

(lyrical notes)

For shadow What’s to come How many years Have we been on the run And all our fears And wildest dreams
If we don’t try
They won’t mean a thing
Colorado cabin waiting
Fifteen years and his heart still breaking And yet he sings
Despite the pain
If we don’t try
It won’t mean a thing
If we don’t try
It won’t mean a thing
Bet the farm
And my diamond ring
On a song and six steel strings The futur we hold
Is ours to keep
And it can’t be sold
Pastoral as the mountains Cristal clear Springs the fountain
Of my love for your soul
All my love
We’re never growing old
Of my love for your soul
All my love
We’re never growing old
Pastoral as the mountains
Cristal clear
Springs the fountain
Of my love for your soul
And my love
We’re never growing old
Of my love for your soul
And my love
We’re never growing old

Nick Drake
Flying Above my bed
Playing River Man
Thin Curls of smoke
Tracing your face
We’re 17
Meet me up in space
We’ll do it all again
Just to be Young in Wisconsin
The Cure you thought
Was all it took
To get me to cry
Follow along
The river bend
So we can try
Meet me up in space
We’ll do it all again
Just to be
Young in Wisconsin

Look at her
She’s clumsy and poor
No one will ever be sure
What is it she does with her life
Strangest of girls
She never gets out
Find a friend you need someone
Posters hanging on the walls
She talks to them
When she’s alone
Hey John Martyn
I wrote you a song
And laughs and suns and afternoons
Wasted away
Alone
We’ll find a way to love you
From now on
Strangest of girls
She never gets out
Sorry we had never seen
The light of day
On what you bring
The world is better with you in it
Don’t go just now
We’d love you to sing
And laughs and suns and afternoons
Wasted away
Alone
We’ll find a way to love you
From now on

Bluest of birds
Flying by my window
Baby
You’re seen and heard
Let’s meet by the willow tree
We’ll kiss and make plans
Like it’s our wedding
Keep holding my hand
I’m disappearing
Ain’t life beautiful
Baby
Ain’t life beautiful
Bluest of birds
Flying by my window
Baby
You’re seen and heard
Ain’t life beautiful
Ain’t life beautiful Baby
