A Dog and His Boy

You could eat a horse
With your seven teeth
You liked the chicken liver
But still preferred the beef
But now your body’s out there
Trapped in the monsoon
And you, are you sleeping?
Or are you on the moon?
You were such a connoisseur
You’d sniff the plants like wine
But before you made your choice
You always took your time
Now, your body’s out there
Trapped in the monsoon
And you, are you sleeping?
Or are you on the moon?
You would fight a monster
With your final breath
You always were a hero
Even in your death
‘Cause now, your body’s out there
Trapped in the monsoon
And all I have are memories
Gathered in a tune
Did you want to go
Fast instead of slow?
Or did you just know?
Tell me, are you sleeping?
Or are you on the moon?

I had to let it go
Now my heart’s in escrow
I had to let it go

Sweet Nothing

Willow branches hang
Dawn goes through
The lives we have are disappearing
With the moon
A lot to lose
A kiss refused
Sweet nothing

Folded Up Note

Are you open or closed?
Anxious or composed?
Either way, I’ll be there
‘Cause all the lives we lived before
They broke like waves against the shore
To put us here together
Sunshine through the leaves
That lighter shade of green
And you, and me
And rows and rows of trees
Am I weak, or strong?
Here or gone?
Either way, I know you’ll stay
‘Cause you knew that we’d belong
Baby, you said so in a song
And it feels like yesterday
A folded up note
And nothing to hide
Somehow, goodbye
We lay there and cried
And now, I see you on a screen
‘Cause there’s an ocean in between
And baby, all we have are dreams
All we have are dreams
And baby, all we have are dreams
Of sunshine through the leaves
That lighter shade of green
And you, and me
And rows and rows of trees

Just a Kid
03:58
|

|
Years ago, we’d sit by the lake
And talk just to fill the space
Light filled the waves
And I didn’t have to choose
Which me to be for you
Fires swim along the path
Going home at last
A wayfaring soul
With nothing to hold, but old words
A letter from you
Don’t be cross
And if you feel lost
Know that peace is inside
Promises made on a day by the lake
May slow, but never will die
Fires swim along the path
Going home at last
A wayfaring soul
With nothing to sing
But a song, written for you
Some things these days
Find it hard to stay
Like our hearts
Which gave us away
But I never knew my life fit in a suitcase
Just a kid missing you
Just a kid, missing you
