Farewell

Had I known, I wouldn’t have left you
And regret still pains my heart
Last time I’d ever see you
I didn’t know it was farewell
We walked the ruins, gazed at the stars
Alone with secrets known, we could share our hearts
In a world of strangers, you just knew me, too well
You’ve done your time,
Show the scars,
You can hold your head up now,
You can hold your head up now
Had I known, I wouldn’t have left you
And regret still pains my heart
Last time I’d ever see you
I didn’t know it was farewell
Time has passed for you and I
I have learned to live without you in my life
In a world of strangers, I’ll always love you, somehow
In a world of strangers, I’ll always love you, somehow

They say family’s everything, but it wasn’t for me
Always wished I’d had a mother who thought the world of me
Searched my whole life, tough hole to fill
Someone who’d love me, like a mother will
Now I’m filled with empathy
For what she missed and didn’t see
My baby girl’s the best thing that ever happened,
That ever happened to me
For all the girls with no mothers,
You can be a good mother still
For all the boys with no fathers,
you can be a good father still
Now I watch my girl shine
Hard to describe
How I love you, no one above you
My beautiful, my beautiful Butterfly

Recognition

When I met you I knew you
I’d been looking for your face
From the beginning of this lifetime
I knew I’d see you one day
We had found a tear in time and space
Quietly slipped away
No one even noticed we were gone
We’ll appear and disappear together
Bodies made of Stardust and Rain
What’s given is never broken
Something will live in it again
When a bird sings, it sings in me
A tree sways, sways within my reach
Like a dewdrop that shimmers in the sun
We had found a tear in time and space
Quietly slipped away
No one even noticed we were gone
We’ll appear and disappear together
Bodies made of Stardust and Rain
What’s given is never broken
Something will live in it again

Silver Edge

Run my dear from anything that may clip your budding wings
Run like hell my dear from anyone, who puts a knife into your tender heart
Heal your fears, share some secrets, shed some tears
You put your heart and sword in my hand
I can fight for who I am
You’ve given me a silver edge
Woah a silver edge
When was the last time someone knew you
not who you pretend to be?
When was the last time you felt love well up in your soul?
Heal your fears, shed some secrets, shed some tears
You put your heart and sword in my hand
I can fight for who I am
You’ve given me a silver edge
Woah a silver edge
Woah a silver edge
Far beyond the gold horizon
Near the desert strand
Where the night merges with everything
I come to make my stand
You put your heart and sword in my hand
I can fight for who I am
You’ve given me a silver edge
Woah a silver edge
Woah a silver edge
Woah a silver edge

This could be our last good night together
We may never pass this way again
Just let me enjoy it til it’s over, or forever
Please don’t tell me how the story ends
See the way our shadows come together
Softer than your fingers on my skin
Someday this may be all that we remember of each other
Please don’t tell me how the story ends
Never’s just the echo of forever
Lonesome as a love that might have been
Let me go on lovin’ and believin’ ‘til it’s over
Please don’t tell me how the story ends
Please don’t tell me how the story ends
Please don’t tell me how the story ends

I’m in darkness as dark as night can be
I’ve been so low shine a light on me
The road I’ve trod has been so hard and long
I’m a stranger living in this world
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to say
Dream of acceptance and your warm embrace
Sing Sweet Honeybird sing
Now’s the season of change
Too long gone
I’m on my way
Tonight I’m coming home
My soul was like the raging sea
I’d forgotten who I was and did not heed
I’d forsaken all that I hold dear
I’d surrendered to lots of things unworthy
Nothing left to lose
Nothing left to say
Dream of acceptance and your warm embrace
Sing Sweet Honeybird sing
Now’s the season of change
Too long gone
I’m on my way
Tonight I’m coming home
No more darkness no more night
Oh I see the light
No more darkness no more night
Ooh I’ve seen the light
Sing Sweet Honeybird sing
Now’s the season of change
Too long gone
I’m on my way Tonight I’m coming home
No more darkness no more night
Tonight I’m coming home I’ve seen the light
No more darkness no more night
Tonight I’m coming home I’ve seen the light
No more darkness no more night
Tonight I’m coming home I’ve seen the light
No more darkness no more night
Tonight I’m coming home I’ve seen the light

Washing of the Water

River, river carry me on
River, river carry me on
River, river, carry me
To the place where I come from
So deep, so wide, will you take me on your back for a ride
If I should fall, would you swallow me deep inside
River, show me how to float, I feel like I'm sinking down
Thought that I could get along
But here in this water, my feet won't touch the ground
I need something to turn myself around
Going away, away toward the sea
River deep, can you lift up and carry me
Oh roll on through the heartland
'Til the sun has left the sky
River, river, carry me high
'Til the washing of the water, make it all alright
Let your waters reach me, like he reached me tonight
Letting go, it's so hard, the way it's hurting now
To get this love untied
So tough to stay with this thing
If I follow through
I face what I denied
I’ll take those hooks out of me
And I’ll take the hooks that I sunk deep in your side
Kill that fear of emptiness, loneliness I hide
River, oh river, river running deep
Bring me something that will let me get to sleep
In the washing of the water will you take it all away
Bring me something that will take this pain away
