“Cape Snow”

All is Gold

I’ve waited so long, for a day like this
Made of understanding, lightning and a kiss
Our bodies weightless, naked against the tide
I could forever float here by your side
Leaves, they rustle, like paper tambourines
Fall into the now, infinite and serene

We won’t ever lose this feeling
Each moment we’re stealing is infinitely healing
Can you see us, reflected in the sky
Nothing’s hidden, I won’t be shy
Forever always, going our ways
Star-crossed runaways
All is gold now, everything
Is in line, my sweet valentine


 

One More Time

I’d do most anything
To say hello, one more time
But not just in my mind, I’d do anything
I’d take back all my words, I’d ruin the rhyme
My sweet darling, our past keeps me sane
Alone in the present, am I waiting in vain?
I’d give anything to say hello, say hello
One more time, for one little kiss
I’d give anything to say hello, say hello
One more time, for one little kiss is sweet, sweet, sweet bliss
I’d do most anything
For the chance, to say goodbye
But not just in my mind, I’d do anything
I’ll vacate tonight, this heart occupied
My sweet darling, I am asking again
Are you coming home, am I waiting in vain?
I’d give anything to say hello, say hello
One more time, for one little kiss
I’d give anything to say hello, say hello
One more time, for one little kiss is sweet, sweet, sweet bliss


 

Flesh and Blood
Nobody’s god will love you like I do
Their love’s a whisper unworthy of you
Still you worship and you pine
And you long as though you’re a child
Because you’re flesh and blood

Nobody knows this pain I hold so deep
My love’s a fire diminished by your beliefs
Still I hold you in my thin arms
Walk beside you, succumb to your charms
Because I’m flesh and blood

Nobody knows if heaven’s even real
I’m in this world standing right here
While your so-called savior stands by
Idle and bored somewhere in the sky
We’re flesh and blood
We’re flesh and blood


 

I’m Over Love
I’m over love, I’ve had my fill
Keep your kisses, I don’t want the thrill
I’m through
I’m over you, your warm embrace
Pillow talk, your lovely face
I’m through
When love comes knocking on my door
I won’t answer anymore
Would you?
I’ll just be singing these songs of love


 

Amazing
I want a straight path
A line that runs across a map
If I roll the dice
I need to know that it’s all right
Will I fall

Am I crazy I get so caught up
‘Cause you’re amazing but I can’t trust it
In the glow of now
Where is the true end
The upshot of these decisions
If I hedge my bets
Or leave this game instead
Is this folly

Am I crazy I get so caught up
Cause you’re amazing but I can’t trust it
In the glow of now
I wanna see you when the leaves turn red
I wanna build a bigger bed
Could we walk in the quiet of snow
Will you stay or will you go
Will you stay or will you go
Am I crazy I get so caught up
‘Cause you’re amazing but I can’t trust it
Am I crazy I get so caught up
‘Cause you’re amazing but I can’t trust it
In the glow of now


 

Sweet Dreams
All alone, I’m a vessel on the sea
Lights of land, are so, so far behind me
What is home, but a feeling that I crave
The calm I’ve found, on these rolling green waves
I am home, and here I’ll stay
I’ve got no compass nor a map, I do not know north from west
I follow the birds above, the wind, and my tin heart
Deadly siren’s song is my star chart
All alone, I’m a vessel on the sea
Good night


Swoon

Suddenly, you realize
That everyone here’s got wings
We’re not bound by the gravity
That lingering doubt can bring
Take to the sky
Little butterfly
Like moths we swoon
Longing for the moon
Like moths we swoon
Longing for the moon

Hypnotized, starry-eyed
Living is reaching, you see
So while you’re out in the sky
Why don’t you reach for me?
Take to the sky
Little butterfly
Like moths we swoon
Longing for the moon
Like moths we swoon
Longing for the moon

Read between the lines
Uncover secret rhymes
The breath between the notes
Is where intention floats
Like moths we swoon
Longing for the moon

Suddenly, you realize
Your song is a skeleton key
There’s no if, only when
It’s all in the harmony


 

Cruel World
You’re damned if you do
And you’re damned if you don’t
What a cruel, cruel world
What a cruel, cruel world

You’re damned if you do
And you’re damned if you don’t
What a cruel, cruel world
What a cruel, cruel world


 

Never Let Go
Stay a little longer, I’m claiming tonight
For the fearful and the restless, with tympani hearts
A mess of hands makes a true lovers’ knot
We’ll maybe leave one thing, not broken apart
Don’t underestimate, embers left unattended
Nothing is lost, just don’t believe
in lingering doubt, set it afire

It’s amazing, the maze I wade, through the back of my head
Nightly navigation, there’s comfort in fear
Undeterred, we dare sing off key
The song’s in the night, we sing what we hear
All these things I know to be true
Stubborn bursting heart I wear on my sleeve
I could never let go, so let it be so

Never let go, never let go, Don’t ever let go
