- Track Name: Rushing Cars
-
Petals turn toward the sun
'Cause they know that its the one
So the waters turn to you
Whistling a familiar tune
[chorus]
And the river flows down to the lake
The crashing waves do surely break
And your eyes are stained the deepest blue
I, my love, will die for you
You fumble slightly at the door
Like you've never done this before
And I am bursting at the seams
My life of half forgotten dreams
[chorus]
Then I watch you go down to the beach
The world is so far out of reach
But I never have seen so many stars
My life is just in rushing cars
[instrumental]
[half chorus]
Though the leaves are dead and brown
They still haven't hit the ground - Track Name: Sparrow in Spring
-
Won't you come outside and see the way the sun shines in the trees
Open up your window, reach out and touch the leaves
Spring is here, winter's gone, open up your eyes
I want to know who you really are, underneath this sad disguise
[chorus]
Won't you come?
Come with me
Won't you fly?
Like a sparrow in spring
Winter was bitter cold, you stayed indoors
Hiding from someone you abhorred
He didn't care, no he didn't know
The way that your heart felt buried in the snow
[chorus]
Won't you come?
Come with me
Won't you fly?
Like a sparrow in spring
[bridge]
Seasons go by
Letters no longer fly
'Tween you and I
Now you're fine, now you're okay, free, away
And I am the one with nothing left to say
Please won't you come and release me from this spell
As you well know dear, it is a living hell
[chorus]
Won't you come?
Come with me
Won't you fly?
Like a sparrow in spring - Track Name: Trail in the Trees
-
The grass under your feet
Bends and it hits the ground
Showing them the way
Not making any sound
And I following will
Try in vain to right the blades
Disturbed in every way
Every piece astray
[chorus]
Just come and see
The trail in the trees
Where you ran away
That winter's day
And in a small house
On the edge of a lake
You'll make yourself a home
This is all that you can take
And when they find you
They will fail to understand
You never were the one
You were never in command
[chorus]
Just come and see
The trail in the trees
Where you ran away
That winter's day
[break] - Track Name: Hometown Beat
-
Cross the street
Stare at the skyline
This hometown is beat
But at the same time
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
You and I
Fit like a pair of jeans
These mountains we've climbed
Oh how high they seem
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
Cities fall
Into the pavement cracks
The statues they dig
Into the workers backs
Wo-oh-oh-oh-oh
The statues will
Outlast us all
And just like us
They're standing firm and tall
