No Trouble
I want to ask you
Come away with me
But I know
You don’t want no trouble
No strain of spirit or mind
And I ask myself
Why would I entertain
Someone like you
Timid as you are
For I know
You don’t want no trouble
No brave romance
And I remember
How you were shaking
In my arms
I was burning
Secrets abound
Oh tomorrow
Maybe you will call
But I know
You don’t want no trouble
No roses to wither in my hair
My mother
Tells me
Dont run after nobody
They should be coming
To you
But i know you don’t want no trouble
No pathway to the skies
You will travel far and wide
Travel far and wide alone

Joy
Give me your fine love
Theres nothing I’d want more
Make my poor heart sing
Everything you wish
I'll hunt down I'll kill for
I'll give you everything
Give me your fine love
If only just one drop
I'll suffer the joy you bring
In the deep cold night
I long for you so bright
I wish I were there in your arms
Open them to me
I'll make you see
All the worlds therein

Treasure
Searching for the sea
You found me
Found a fruit
Searched for a flower
Comes a change
Comes the tide
Move in darkness
Your treasure
Simple mistakes
Simple highway
Simple
Wisdoms made
Hold your breath
And head above
Waters
Deep and narrow
Ophelia
Float on down
Streams of tar
gathered in your hair

Green
I aked him do you think
It’ll be green in a week
He answered me no,
Just look at the trees
When I came back at the time
I’d been right
For the colours hit my eye
Like arrows
Benches in the park
The flora
And all of names
From whence they hail
Now I cannot tell him how
The spring goes
Still the green of his eyes
In my mind grows

Harvest
You sing to me of gardens
Sing of the sage
Let them sigh into a bloom
In this morning light
Midair you catch my hand
To read between the lines
Won’t you hold it in yours this time
In this morning light
Let the flowers know the fall
That their time is right
Oh you sing to me of gardens
Sing to me of hearts delight!
They say harvest at midnight
Under a full moon
But oh, to have your love
Under the sun

Alchemist
I tried to bury your ring
Never to see it again
But the earth want it no more than me
And now we cry together
Let us be free
Every time it rains
The silver shines through
The humble earth
Its dark hue
And I wonder
If it’ll poison my well
If I leave it there
Relieve the spell
You’ve cast your net so far and wide
It’s a maze that I fight
Digging in old territory
The old men here sing of the sea
Ashes
Dust to dust
I’ll drink my tears
If I must
Never shall we part
Alchemist of my heart

Prince of Scars
When I think now
It could have left scars
Remind me darling
Of who you are
Tell me softly here
About your journey there
And how you lost your armour to a knight
And how your lost your smile in just one night
And how you lost sight
And how you lost sight
You’re wounded now under a tree
My old tears they won’t comfort thee
How they worked I never knew
Magic’s word is not to undo
The scars you have they have their own light
The heart you have was gained in a fight
Trust no one with a word
Ever sharpen your sword

Dalloway
And see how
I gravitate to your field
For the beauty of beatrice
The hardships of Solomon
The cruelty of the stars
Sigh and fear
The guests arriving
Buy the flowers yourself
Dalloway
Greet them with a smile
He told me then
If one thing you must not forget
It is this I’ve said;
For what you’re loved
You never will know
Singer-Sargent’s flowers on your walls
The rushing of seams
The many fineries
And white collared song
Clover fields
And cards to be played right
Cotton and high heels
The sting of bees
The pain almost gone
And see how
I gravitate to your field
The hopes of solitude
The hissing of summerlawns
The stillness in a kiss

Envy
How I envy you
I’ve watched you come and go
To this part that is my home
The fence is all I know
I have never seen the flowers bloom
I’ve never watched them fade
For my colours are blind, my head is full
Of dreams beyond the gate
You tell me of all I cannot see
But what is there to do?
When you walk on, so does the sun
And I am left to the gloom
You tell me I am rich, you tell me I’m strong
You tell me I am fair
Take it all I’ll have it none
To see you standing there

Roses
Memories of the Blue Bayou
Comes a-waltzing
Waltzing round my room
I’ll fall in line
But dont swear by the moon
Don’t swear by the moon, my love
Drenched and mistaken
Drown your sorrows
In the season
In the sun, find your time
Crawl up my sleeve
And down my spine
Don't you know
It's contagious
Don't you know to stay away
I dreamt of you
And her name was Emma
And yes you loved her still
How if not yours alone?
I find it hard
To care for my jealous bones
I’ve no church
My sundays are slow and wild
No confessions, cannot repent
I dreamt of you
And her name was Emma
And yes you loved her still
And you said,
While that may be true
All of my roses, I give to you
