Bitterroot
tonight i'll be sleeping on the mountain top
i got a billion stars for my witness
in the morning i'll go down and the sun comes up
and i'll take a drink from the bitter root river
have you been lonely
(yes i've been lonely)
i've been lonely too
have you been lonely
(yes i've been lonely)
i've been lonely too
tonight i'll be sleeping on the mountain top
i got a billion stars for my witness
in the morning i'll go down and the sun comes up
i'll take a drink from the bitter root river
have you been travelin
(yes i've been travelin)
i've been travelin too
(that girl can play)
have you been travelin
(yes i've been travelin)

Yield
i was downstairs
in the greenroom
waiting for you
to appear
i said hello
to your family
i said hello
to your friends
i said hello
to this situation
that never yields
now it's easy
for me to tell you
that my love for you
is sincere
but i once stumbled
on these feelings
(on these feelings)
and i once stumbled
on these words

Measure Of Me
The boy he thinks Im damaged goods
I know he does and I guess he should
I dress like him and I take him down
He gets embarrassed when his friends come around
I can get the girl
But the boys just laugh
I can get the girls
But the boys just laugh
So this is a measure of me
Even though it shouldnt be
The lion lays down with the lamb
But I cant do it so I aint worth a damn
I can get the girls
But the boys just laugh
I can get the girls
But the boys just laugh at me
Come on now graceful
I want you to be
Come on now social
I said I want you to be

Its Too Late
Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
Theres something wrong here there can be no denying
Now one of us is changing
Or maybe weve just stopped trying
But its too late baby, now its too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I cant hide
And I just cant fake it
No
It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy I knew just what to do
But now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool
But its too late baby, now its too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I cant hide
And I just cant fake it
No
Therell be good times again for me and you
But we just cant stay together dont you see that its true
Still Im glad for what we had

Cortez The Killer
He came dancing across the water
With his galleons and guns
Looking for a new world
And a palace in the sun
And on the shore lay montezuma
With its coca leaves and pearls
In his halls he often wondered
With the secrets of the world
And the subjects gathered round him
Like the leaves around the trees
His coat of many colors
For the angry gods to see
And the women all were beautiful
And the men stood straight and strong
He offered life with sacrifice
So that others might go on
Yeah
Now hate was just a legend
And war was never known
The people worked together

No Way Out
As I was wading through your distance
I heard you say theres no way out
And I was just thinking as my independence faded
Well theres no way in for me
Theres no way out and you know
Theres no way in
Were on either side
Scared to say were friends
Now I found jesus and you found yourself
Sometimes I still feel like Im losing out
But we both found that its just too hard to know for sure
Just what we can lean on when were falling down
You always did see
The other side of things and sometimes
Im bound to wonder
Do you see through me
With all the voids I tried to fill
And all the emptiness I tried to tell you about
There was never time enough
There are never words enough

Sweet Gypsy
Sweet gypsy blowing through my mind
And through my heart so full and empty
Well these days seem strange somehow
A billion years isnt what it appears to be
Now you tell me that youre losing hold of time
You cant seem to find your peace of mind
Well Im so far away and Im trying to see you through
I cant help but feel I may be losing you
Should I let you go
For your own sake
Should I hold you close
For mine
Anyway I love you and I couldnt be more sure
These tears cry out please dont let go
Oh but their words
They keep haunting me
You cant build your life around a dream
Well its too late
Now my world is you
Theres nothing they could say or do

Chiapas Bound
All the girls with anorexia are on the street tonight
And the boys in the band think they look just fine
And I dont even know why I drove this car down congress avenue
Hoping to find you turning on the light
Well you seem like a girl with the world on your side
But its just a point of view
And you know how quickly that could change too
See I heard you were free or someone thinks you should be
And I know just how that feels
I thought maybe we could just talk for a while
Cause baby I got something to stand for
I got somewhere we could go home
I just need someone to stand with
See it aint no good this feeling alone
When you said that youd go down to mexico
Well I think that I might go there too
But its probably too late to find someone like you
Yeah it sounds really cool to be without a care in some southern town
But I heard theres trouble down there if youre chiapas bound
Yeah it sounds really cool to be without a care in some southern town

Dannys Song
People smile and tell me Im a lucky one
Weve just begun
I think Im gonna have a son
And he will be like he and me as free as a dove
Conceived in love
The sun is gonna shine above
Even though we aint got money
Well Im so in love with you honey
And everything will bring a chain of love
And in the morning when I rise
You bring a tear of joy to my eyes
And tell me everything is gonna be all right
Love a boy who holds the world in a paper cup
Drink it up
Love him and hell bring you luck
And if you find he helps your mind
Sister take him home
Dont you live alone
Try to earn what lovers own
Even though we aint got money

Touch Me Fall
All skate
Now reverse
Im waking from a dream
The neighborhood is green
All the sounds Ive missed
All the years
Come down to wedding death and fear
Ill Ive heard has been in vain
Like water on a stain
Touch me
Im so beautiful
Rub your hands
Across my head
Just like this
Come with me
Now its not worth it
If you dont
Are you hiding
I am hiding
Cypress moon
