Jet Set

She drove a tricked-out, top-down, rockin' jalopy
That she bought with an IOU
She was a well-read, well-bred opulent Aussie
Who had dropped out of NYU
She was a free bird
Not believing what she heard
Like a tiger when she purred
And I wanna make her mine
She was a hard-to-get jet set sunny vacation
From a nation of icy freeze
She was a palm tree, white beach, pretty location
And her face brought me to my knees
She was a good girl
Doing all that she could girl
Whatsoever she would girl
And I wanna make her mine
On my mind
I think about her all the time
I think about her almond eyes
I think about her smile
She got me speechless, gaga I drop my jaw
I'm impressed, Father I guess I better
Confess, Lord what she's doing to me
I wanna make her mine
She was a hot rod, good God,
Magical potion in an ocean of DOA's
She was an ice cream, pipe dream
Musical motion and I'm hopin' that she looks my way
She was a bright light
Burning flame in the night time
Showing up at the right time
Never late and I wanna make her mine
Girl, you could be my life
My light
My everything
That'd be just fine
Let's take a walk in the sunshine
Let's drink it in like a fine wine
Let's live our lives on the bright side
Just don't forget what I'm telling ya
Darlin', you could be my life
My light
My everything
That'd be divine
Let's open up what we've shut down
Let's let it in what we've locked out
Let's set it straight what was turned round
With love like this, I know we'll be fine
I was an average guy
Humble as pie
I wasn't really sure what to say but
We would pass in the street
And our eyes would suddenly meet
And you would smile at me
Something's bringing us closer
I was a rag tag, dime bag, decadent dreamer
Who was weened here in SLC
I was an unlocked prog rock nothing to see here
Who would doubt his divinity
She was a deep breath
Cheer me up when I'm depressed
Calm me down when I'm upset
And I wanna make her mine
On my mind
I think about her all the time
I think about her almond eyes
I think about her smile
She got me speechless, gaga I drop my jaw
I'm impressed, Father I guess I better
Confess, Lord what she's doing to me
I wanna make her mine
We could be more than before, babe we could make a good team
If you'd be my life
And we could live long, love strong, babe we could make a new dream
If you'd be my wife
Cause you're the right one
Shining out like a bright sun
Flying high as a kite and I
I wanna make you mine

Harvey

Harvey was a smart man
But he didn't really understand
The implications of the things he was seeing.
For time and space had been erased,
Reality had been replaced
With a swirling soup of colors, lines, and feelings.
Perhaps I'd better mention
About Harvey's new invention.
It's a wacky, space-age form of transportation.
He made a ship that's most unique
Cause all you have to do is think,
And bam! Instantly you're at your destination
They said it couldn't be done, but he did it
The odds were a billion to one, but he did it
How would you know where to go if you only had to think it?
What would it mean if your dreams were only just a thought away?
Thy said it couldn't be done, but he did it
The odds were a billion to one
Harvey climbed into the ship and
Sat with his hands on the wheel and turned the engine on
He thought of a place far away, and suddenly the ship was gone
Harvey
Where ya wanna fly to?
You just close your eyes and pick a place
You just take a seat and fly away
Harvey
This is such a big world
Will you only travel on your own?
Will you ever dream of coming home?
Harvey was a smart man,
But the trip didn't go the way he planned
But that's just the risk you take when you're exploring
When the ship phased out of this dimension,
Harvey's mind was racked with tension,
He wavered in his thoughts' attention
And the ship, it lost direction!
And his little human mind was stretched beyond its sized
And shattered and then scattered through the cosmos!
And what he saw was more than real
Kaleidoscopic neon fields
A soulful song, a loving voice
And Harvey wept with joy
They wondered where has he gone? Is he all right?
This is taking too long! Is he all right?
How would you know where to go if you only had to think it?
What would it mean if your dreams were only just a thought away?
They wondered where has he gone? Is he all right?
This is taking too long!
And that's right about the time the ship reappeared
And they cheered! And our hero climbed out and they
Asked where he'd been, and he grinned,
And he simply said, "To everywhere."
Harvey
Where ya wanna fly to?
You just close your eyes and pick a place
You just take a seat and fly away
Harvey
This is such a big world
Will you only travel on your own?
Will you ever dream of coming home?
And I know
This is just beginning
But it's been a long and rocky road
And it's been so hard to let you go
But Harvey
Will you take me with you?
Can we see the planets and the stars?
Will we learn the truth of who we are?

Let it go
Let it unfold
Do what you want
In the depths of the mine, there are emeralds and diamonds
Go go get it
Take your time
Make up your mind
Do what you want
Where the riches are found, all the forest are chopped down
Time is a meadow of kale
Is an artisan well
Is the dance of the seven veils
In all respects,
We are linguistic architects
Building bridges with alphabets
And bended knees
Now we will drink of the water of life
We will harvest the worms and the spice
We drum to the Dance of the Seven Veils
Just know our attitude
More than logic or latitude
Politics or the fat we chew
Is how our life will be
Overflow
Try to recall
What we forgot
On the tip of the brain
But we can't seem to make out
Let it go
Let it unfold
Do what you want
Of the voices inside, there is One that can guide you

The Waiting Room
05:41
|
|||
Owing to misery
We learn eventually
But I'm not so sure
That time can cure
All the waiting pains
That we've endured
I am only a dilettante
Waiting for something to truly want
And I'm well aware
Of a room upstairs
Where waiting souls
Sit on wooden chairs
Under a full red moon I'll find you and we'll walk through the night
And I'll see that you
Found what you always knew you had to, you opened your eyes
Could it be that you
Never were lost at all, but blossoms can't be hurried to bloom
Could it be that you
Always were on your way, your door will be opening soon
This is only the waiting room
Maybe it's foolish to think as such, but
Maybe Godot really will show up
As the sunset dims
As the dark drifts in
Will you stay with me
To wait up for him?
God when will it be our turn?
There's a prayer in my heart but my mind can't remember the words
So I sit and wait
And I contemplate
Has the moment passed?
Is it far too late?
You will see
You're right where you need to be
We'll remind you
As many times as we need to
Over and over
Over and over
Over and over
