LYRICS + CREDITS
I See Jane
She is to me like water
And I need air
Jane, she sees me, and I see Jane
And we hear everything
Come, my love
Come, my love
Come, my love, here
I found my senses beneath me
Wherever they may be
Come, my love
Come, my love
Come, my love, here
She is to me like water
And I need air
Sea and Stir
See the maiden on the breeze
Oh how she watches me
Steady onward and sail
Heaving forward, we bail
Sun and wind, our tired friends
Sea and stir, they never heard
Face the closeness of sea
Our land is ever-distancing
Ooh, beaten by and drowning low
Still onward we go
Sun and wind our tired friends
Sea and stir, they never heard
Soon to meet our heaven sweet
Land and sky, though soon we die
Lady across the horizon
Oh we have found new hope to die in
Snakes they rattle in the cradle
But where is the baby now?
Sun and wind our tired friends
Sea and stir, they never heard
Soon to meet our heaven sweet
Land and sky, though soon we die
Oooh..
Blackberry Bramble
In the blackberry bramble, I fell into you I fell into you, love, and you held me true
In the blackberry brambles we lay, just us two
Now you are the love of my heart
Well our fruit was the sweetest, then poison came
Poison it came, and we loved all the same
But in time grew the thorns too wild to entame
Though you were the love of my heart
Oh my love, ooh
My love, ooh
My love, ooh
Now the taste, oh it lingers, the vine, it remains
The vine still remains, my burden, my claim
I have never known thorns to make me bleed quite the same
For you were the love of my heart
Oh my love, ooh
My love, ooh
My love, ooh
Oh, the thorns and the thistle
How they wait for my whistle
To take my love from me
Oh please take, take
Well, I can’t, I won’t, I never will
I never will try to make time stand still
For a flower must bloom and die as it will
Still, you were the love of my heart
Oh my love, ooh
My love, ooh
My love, ooh
Dark Highways
Well, at night the streets are mean and seem like
dark hallways
dark highways
dark are my days, honey, when you’re not around
It ain’t your fault that I can’t see you through
diner windows
living room windows
strangers windows, honey, they just let me down
And her voice comes in my head and says
Keep on moving
You keep moving, honey, you’re never losing any time
If we can see each other
through these changes
and don’t let ‘em rearrange us
The further we get
The tighter we bind
I remember in my kitchen when she
first told me
Oh, I know you love me
So don’t worry ‘bout me, honey, don’t let it get you down
Oh, if I could reach out across that ol’
dark highway
and across dark hallways
‘cause dark are my days, honey, when you’re not around
And her voice comes in my head and says
Keep on moving
You keep moving, honey, you’re never losing any time
If we can see each other
through these changes
and don’t let ‘em rearrange us
The further we get
The tighter we bind
The tighter we bind
The tighter we bind
You know old Walt, he said it best
We were together
We were together
And I forget the rest
How Does a Robin Get Its Wings?
How does a robin get its wings
So it can fly over everything?
Why can’t I be a robin, too?
Then the sky would connect me and you
Far from these mountains I’d soar
O’er valleys so wide, seeing all that I’d adored
Sink beneath under the shadow of my wings
Like a thief, I must hide everything
Ooh
And how does a robin learn to fly,
Spreading its wings to the open sky?
Never setting down for anyone
Would it cry to finally see the sun?
Ooh
Call my heart home to you
For I’ve tasted the sky and I know how to fly
Having flown over mountain and tree
To fly home would be the miracle for me
So keep on calling me homeward
Keep on calling me homeward
Keep on calling me home
