Clays Ferry Bridge

She came down here from Alberta
She said she’d never seen the Sun shine this way
But we’d never noticed
Cause here’s where we was born and raised
And we ain’t travelled far
What she loved was the thrill
We’d saddle Tony and Jasper and Bill
And we’d run em’ full speed
Through the branches, jump the ditches and the creeks
Till the summer did end
How she moved through our friends
They said they’d never seen someone shine that way then
And since her eyes they were weak
And seemed to water the sides of her cheeks
We stood fast by her side
When the checks never cleared
And the times she would just disappear
And the phone never rang
And it’d make you think back, Lord, towards everything
Oh, and then there she’d be
From Lord only knows where, there she’d be
At the bus station sign
And you’d just leave all those questions behind
Now, from Fayette down to Richmond
There’s a river that runs in between
And that’s where I told her
Told her I was fed up with everything
She had nothing to say
Lord, I’d never seen so quiet a day
Now, from Fayette down to Richmond
There’s a river that runs in between
And that’s where I told her
Told her I was fed up with everything

I'm All Yours
03:04
|
|||
However these days will find us
Hopefully in the arms of one another
And I know you have your doubts and your questions
So let me say one thing before you go
I’m all yours
There’s just so much in you to love
And by the way, I see you sometimes
And wonder if you’re real
Oh, but you know that
So I listen to the rain steady falling
Hope you’re keeping yourself dry and I’ll see you in the morning
And I see you, and I know what you’re thinking
Cause I’m watching you pretend like you don’t know
I’m all yours
There’s just so much in you to love
And by the way, I see you sometimes
And wonder if you’re real
Oh, but you know that

Calm
03:18
|
|||
I have forsaken you
It's not as though I wanted to
It simply seemed I had to, I know
You say you'll always stay
Your strength is simply just too much
I watch while you're waking up
What do you hide that keeps you bound to us, you say
That love's the only way
Calm as you are, I'd hate see you
I don't know where you come from
Some World where no one's done you wrong, it seems
What's easy to you, baby, I couldn't give to you
Even if I tried
An angel with your will defined
Thinking over things and taking time
Let us speak not of the things we might, you say
That love's the only way
Calm as you are, I'd hate see you
I don't know where you come from
Some World where no one's done you wrong, it seems
What's easy to you, baby, I couldn't give to you
Even if I tried
Calm as you are, I'd hate to see you fall

Take From Me
03:35
|
|||
You came here to take from me
To take advantage of my loyalty
You’ve got your mind made up and I’m just standing here in your way
But, I don’t wanna give you no more hope
I’d hate myself if I just stood here and broke
I’ve got my mind made up and I’m just standing here anyway
You’re thinking I could show my cards
Let you take it further than you’ve already gone
You’re gonna stop.
I’ve never felt so tired as I do now
From standing so strong while I’m breaking down
All I’ve got left here is my heart
But not may control
That blue dress always made you squirm
I’m gonna show you inside out, you’ll turn
When you see me standing there
Looking at you from across the room
But now instead of doting on you
I’ll be sending you your final cue
Take notice of me, baby, I’m standing right in front of you
You’re thinking I could show my cards
Let you take it further than you’ve already gone
You’re gonna stop.
I’ve never felt so tired as I do now
From standing so strong while I’m breaking down
All I’ve got left here is my heart
But not may control

Too Much a Dream
03:35
|
|||
When did I start holding on?
Must have been, only then.
Did you find a way
to blend in, my old friend?
Chasing memories back to shore
Floating out to find some more
Thinking only of our time
Keep in more than I let by
And that’s the way you were
Silent, dreaming
How could I’ve known you were to choose
And there I’d be
With a picture of you holding me
For now you sit among
Amongst the thorns. And leave me torn.
Torn from what you need of me.
Guess I don’t care. Guess I don’t care.
When you found me I was free
When you found me I believed
Thinking only of our time
Keep in more than I let by
And that’s the way you were
Silent, dreaming
How could I’ve known you were to choose
And there I’d be
With a picture of you holding me
Won’t you give in to the sun
And let your back be warm, this once?
For you? For me?

No Matter Where
04:08
|

No matter where you are today
I think you’ll end up feeling something, that’ll bring you back my way
At least just for a little while
Till you’re scared, and confused and you’re off again
And there’s nothing left to do but wait
But where do you go, and what are you doing
When you’re out there somewhere?
Over time, I get so tired, I do
You’re the one who never knows what they want
I think I should just go back home
Ah, baby, I’m sorry too
Blue and green through the hills back home
And gray was the morning I told you I’d been making up my mind to go
But since we’re still here for the day
Let’s make it so we don’t remember anything
And I’ll be on my way
But where do you go, and what are you doing
When you’re out there somewhere?
Over time, I get so tired, I do
You’re the one who never knows what they want
I think I should just go back home
Ah, baby, I’m sorry too
I miss the way you were back then
When you still had things you were dreaming of

Maybe I Can Mean It
04:14
|
|||
Well, I’ve said a lot of things
What I’ve done don’t add up to much
And I’ve stayed inside, just hoping you don’t know why
Just hoping you don’t know why
And your eyes are on my face
And I know I don’t deserve a thing
But you give it anyway, and I just take it and don’t say a thing
When I don’t know where I’m going
And time won’t wait on you
But I always will
Yeah, I always will
I recall I said I’d change
But I don’t recall what for
And New York is taking too long, can’t remember what I was counting on
Can’t remember what I was counting on
And time won’t wait on you
But I always will
Yeah, I always will
I’ve been honest and I’ve been afraid
For I know what you came here to say
So let’s just say goodbye, and maybe I can mean it this time
And maybe I can mean it this time

Two Drinks
04:39
|
|||
Two drinks that sit between us, your eyes are wild and burning bright
New beneath the shadows, the spring is gold and makes you smile
And in that I see something, like a sunset and I can’t come down
Oh, but I don’t think I’d want to
The sound of laughing children against the City spinning around
Walking past me on the sidewalk, a daydream, I think it’s for you
And the streets are filled with nothing but cars and the beat of my heart
The one I’m trying to give you
And there’ll be a time when we won’t care
And we won’t make it back from there
But for now that ain’t something we should think about
And we won’t hurry we can take our time
Watch the World go by and by and stay here for now
Lights are dancing out from everywhere and coming up from under the door
Walk a mile beneath the highway with you, the same as before
I for one am hoping, that we don’t have to make it there
But it won’t make a difference, either way again
And there’ll be a time when we won’t care
And we won’t make it back from there
But for now that ain’t something we should think about
And we won’t hurry we can take our time
Watch the World go by and by and stay here for now
I wake up to the sound of the rain
And then we disappear again
And there’ll be a time when we won’t care
And we won’t make it back from there
But for now that ain’t something we should think about
And we won’t hurry we can take our time
Watch the World go by and by and stay here for now

Tennessee

Move with me to Tennessee, my baby
Let's leave this old town and move along
Well, I could teach you how to fish or ride a horse and then we'll kiss
In the early morning fog of Tennessee
Move with me to Tennessee, my darling
Manhattan's just a big ol' billboard sign
I can show you all the things, that a place like that can bring
If you'd follow me to Tennessee
Let's leave it all behind, there's love enough to find
In Tennessee
A place to call our own, it ain't too far from home
In Tennessee
Lazy days by the creek so slowly rising
And a southern summer wind just blowing through
From the mountains looking down, you can see out there for miles
All the blue and green in Tennessee
Let's leave it all behind, there's love enough to find
In Tennessee
A place to call our own, it ain't too far from home
In Tennessee
Move with me to Tennessee, my baby
Let's leave this old town and move along
I can show you all the things, that a place like this can bring
If you'd follow me to Tennessee
Move with me to Tennessee!

Make You Wait
03:12
|
|||
You said you wouldn’t lie to me
Now I’m standing alone
I hear your whispers, and I hear your sighs
They’re so sweet, but I know
That every time you held me, baby
I was simply just your fool
So I won’t be here when you wake up in the morning
I was standing by your bedside
In my fingers was a rose
But, in my mind was the price I’ve paid
You can’t take back what you stole
I take the long way just to make you wait
To see if you miss me when I’m gone
I let my love die slow
Yeah, I let my love go
Now every time you hold me, baby
I just wonder what you’ll do
When you wake up in the morning
And our love is through
