Winter 05:48
It will be, it is, it was The years to come, to end and leave That I will live and weave Here a canvas blank again Ready to be painted new By people who’ll keep passing through And seasons that will change I have learned all my lessons I could fit in a year I have heard everything I was brave enough to hear Now each season I’ve lived through seems so clear Teaching things new to me That I keep very near Teaching things new to me That I keep very dear It will be, it is, it was The years to come, to end and leave That I will live and weave Here a canvas blank again Ready to be painted new By people who’ll keep passing through And seasons that will change I have learned all my lessons I could fit in a year I have heard everything I was brave enough to hear Now each season I’ve lived through seems so clear Teaching things new to me That I keep very near Teaching things new to me That I keep very dear It will be, it is, it was It will be, it is, it was It will be, it is, it was

The Well 05:03
A child licks the window of a candy store From being told that getting less Will come from wanting more A ball is kicked to fill the sky So empty in its grey The more I want the sun to come The less it tends to stay But the years they dry up quickly From the well we drink the past As we search for what we wanted For what we were scared to ask Oh, what can I want now Oh, what will I get Oh, what can I want now Oh, what will I get Will I get it? I take his hand to keep him close Where his kisses deep reside Will wanting more now get me less If time has left my side My years of drought are ending And I’d like to fill anew A well of dreams and lovers That have finally come true Or will this be the final drop I ache for in the past I think I’ll sit and wait to thank And know to never ask Oh, what can I want now Oh, what will I get Oh, what can I want now Oh, what will I get I'll never get it Will I get it? I think I'll get it

He trails the most beautiful leaves on her way home Orange, yellow, and red Silver, copper, gold And she wonders why Fall's the most beautiful season For the earth is as bright as the sun He paves every street with snow wherever she goes And sculpts every icicle that hangs Into a rose And she wonders why Winter's the most beautiful season For she never feels the cold Aah, each year she waits for him But he's waiting inside her Where she never comes in So she writes him a poem And sings him this song Where have you gone? He sprinkles petals from the sky Instead of the rain he knows Would make her cry And she wonders why Spring’s the most beautiful season For she is always dry He shepherds the wind to blow In her direction Then carves a sea for her Inside her garden And she wonders why Summer’s the most beautiful season Then looks at her hands And realizes She’s the reason Aah, each year He’ll come again For he lives deep inside her She never knew then So she writes him a poem And sings him this song I am the one I am the one I am the one

Suite 08:03
Goodbye, mother Hello, child I have built a home From a cherry tree so wild Goodbye, child I have survived Those who came before And to whom I gave their life I'll speak to you before each sleep And ask of you in every dream I'll wake to see if you're still there And bellow your name through muted air Hello, goodbye Goodbye, hello My last goodbye, please come now slow I'll eat though now I cannot chew I'll drink though nothing will come through My throat is shut but I'm not weak Enough to feel Enough to speak Hello, goodbye Goodbye, hello My time has come, now I must go Now I think I found you Safely here with me Opened eyes And here you are Still beyond my sleep

Our Town 03:04
In the town below I can feel you Where the world is old And the people are too But when the people are new There's no world in view What would we do What could we do In the town above I can feel you Where there once was three Now they're only two Then there will be one Then there will be none In the town above They have all gone
6.
When the sun comes up And the day ignites I see again for the first time And I see that everything's alright And when the sun goes down And the day starts to flicker I see the world much clearer Knowing this day has made my life so much bigger For what could go wrong when it all just started No stars have died And no clouds have parted The world holds still Propping its head on the sun and the moon Twirling in laughter And rotating in gloom

Trembling light Find a way To the place Where I'll stay Know I won't be alone Trembling light Know that I'm Always right beside Know I won't be alone Here I'll find you Here I'll go to Trembling light Find a way To the place Where I'll stay Know I won't be alone

They say you've worn that dress too long Now where will you go Can't go to a party and you can't go to school With all that tattered lace I say it's the only thing that fits The only thing that keeps me warm Why when it's torn must it be thrown away Haven't you loved anything that needs mending Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you They say you've worn that dream too long Now where will you go It hangs behind you like a veil Loses threads in the wind I say this veil is pure It mends itself with the sun A honey-golden patchwork That shines for everyone Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you *I'll never find* Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you Hope find the things I lost but never had Hope find the things I lost with you
