Long Winter 04:40
Razor clams and driftwood evoke images of forgettable times So many faces flash by, they merge into one, Slowly the haze is lifting before the sun Endless beaches bear witness to the path I trod, on my way back to you So many escapades, so many half-truths, I need to shed it all and start anew, Oh simplicity, long overdue Let me stay with you tonight as the storm rages outside We’ll sing a duet, just you and me by the fireside Autumn’s coming to an end, long winter closing in Please let me stay, till night turns to day Empty vessels, hollow laughter fading now, the night’s drawn to a close So many plans to make, springtime ahead, Time for reality, time to go to bed That was then and this is now, as the old man said Let me stay with you tonight as the storm rages outside We’ll sing a duet, just you and me by the fireside Autumn’s coming to an end, long winter closing in Please let me stay, till night turns to day

Life keeps moving me on Gives me places to be and so I go Finding my peace along the way I make a path between your lines Let one foot follow another with rhyme And there's something in my walk gives me something to do Something in the air reminds me of you Pavements, streets and bridges, Walking on dirt roads, meadows, grass I got a Spring in my step I’m hardly touching the ground Other seasons come and go this one's gonna last I got a Spring in my step I’m not coming down Winter plays its last hand Trying to bluff its way back, no chance I'm sure Spring will understand I seek a path into your time My hope burns up like grass trespass And there's something in my walk gives me something to do Something in the air reminds me of you Pavements, streets and bridges, Walking on dirt roads, meadows, grass I got a Spring in my step I’m hardly touching the ground Other seasons come and go this one's gonna last I got a Spring in my step I’m not coming down

New Sun 04:09
Throw all your thoughts to the wind, The tide will wash them in again to that lonely cove Empty out your suitcase, make a little space For some brand new dreams Today is the first day of the rest of your life, eyes wide open, new sun ahead The first rays fall upon that winding country road, Asphalt gleaming, anticyclone day No more sleepless nights for you, No more fear or shadows loom Fading in your memory, Bitter tears subside, Sunlight flooding in Hitch a ride on those sunbeams, They’ll take you all the way to where you’re meant to be Striding onward in your seven league boots, New tomorrows on the horizon No more sleepless nights for you, No more fear or shadows loom Fading in your memory, Bitter tears subside, Sunlight flooding in

Spirits lift with the heat of the day Green turns to red then to yellow then blows away Will the leaf fall make a sound Chestnuts rustling as we watched the branches sway We both looked Up as they came tumbling down Everything begins with Autumn, new year for the soul Everything begins with Autumn, ready for the road Then the winter comes around Storms are brewing and first frost comes on time Birds start milling overhead It's a sure sign they bound for warmer climes We both looked up But we'll be sticking around Everything begins with Autumn, new year for the soul Everything begins with Autumn, ready for the road It's a new season No more flowers with bees on Maybe that’s the reason It’s time for toast with cheese on
