Afloat and fighting
In emerald seas
Bobbing under
I breathe in deeper
Sirens singing
Reach for me
Hopeless warnings
About the waves of history
She said the harder they come
She said the harder they fall
Hope and pray for
Delivery
From this supernatural
Endless battery
She said the harder they come
She said the harder they fall

Out in left field
With my face towards the Sun
If I can catch you
I might make the team
Everyone is
A spectator today
When we’re finished
We throw the balls away
Freedom and democracy
A place to raise a family
America
Be just what you want to be
Employed and living lavishly
America
A capitalist fantasy
Insatiable reality
America
Hand picking apples
On a sunny day
Spotted anomalies
Get thrown away
No one would want
Such an ugly thing
These will be sliced
For a nice pie filling
Freedom and democracy
A place to raise a family
America
Be just what you want to be
Employed and living lavishly
America
A capitalist fantasy
Insatiable reality
America
Freedom and democracy
And fear and hate and bigotry

After the baby comes
To wash away the clown assembled here
Another troubadour has overgrown his face
To hide the fear
Has it been twenty years
Or just another minute come and gone
Pack up this circus and go home
I Can’t wait to see what you become
After the baby comes
And hurls you through the clouds
Another troubadour is wondering aloud
Could be these twenty years
Already've come and gone
Fragilely we arrive
And wander into the life
She’s alright
After the baby comes
You're naked in the Sun
After the baby comes
You have nowhere to run
No need to conquer this alone
You know you’re always welcome home
I dreamed that you would be the one
Can’t wait to see what you become

A well established life
Two children and a wife
She lost her share of sleep
She had a soul to keep
The time arrived
Like a rock
Crashing through a window pane
There may be
Consequences
Nothing would get in the way
A life of wonderment
A life of dreaming for her chance
She had vision
She had a plan
She was an extraordinary man
A secret wardrobe kept
Worn all those times she wept
She had a soul to keep

Hold my hand my dear
They’ve made space for us
On the bus
I saw her disappear
Through an open door
On the floor
Herds of people
Plodding forward
Without reason
Strangers faces
Frowning smiling
Pink Indians
She’s not there
She’s not there
Then she reappeared
Near the lollipop
Candy shop
Hold my hand my dear
You’ve scared me to death
Catch my breath

She said, “I fear
The day will come
When me and myself walk away.
Then I will be
All by it’s self.”
And now she’s off and gone for days
I’m hoping for a change in weather
November fifth
The storm blew in
When I awoke she was nowhere
A million laughs
Have come to this
She’s wandered off and gone for days
I’m hoping for a change in weather
I'm hoping we can be together
Heading to the mountains
And living off the land
We’re mining for gold and silver
I thought you’d understand

Sixteen hundred thousand miles
We travel every hour
And no one seems to
Hardly even notice
Each and every atom
Was produced inside a Star
Evolving into
All that’s you and me dear
Place your lovely candles in a row
Pretty fingers light them one by one
You make a secret wish and gently smile
And take another trip around the Sun
An atom’s nucleus resides
In an atomic cloud
That makes us ninety nine percent
Emptiness
Sixteen hundred thousand miles
We’re traveling per hour
As we sit here in
Absolute stillness
Place your lovely candles in a row
Pretty fingers light them one by one
You make a secret wish and gently smile
And take another trip around the Sun
Take another trip around the Sun
