Minnesota
...We came across our lost love
Like a dusty box of clothes
We tried them on for old times
But we both know
It''s a textbook situation
Of love and letting go
How we reach out in the darkest hours
For what we once had
For what we once had known...
* * *
Figaro
Everybody''s got a broken heart somewhere
Everybody wears a few chips on their shoulders
We''re all trying to make things mend
So maybe someday we can have a happy ending
Like Figaro...

Dangerous Devotion
I think you are an ocean, but I dare not explore
I know that I''m better off here on the shore
When I look in your eyes, I can tell what you''re thinking
You think it''s just fear
But I would only be a sinking ship
Just a sinking ship...
If I were an island or a continent
You would still be the Ocean
Mightier than all of it
And I would be a sinking ship...
* * *
57 Chevy
...You spent too long in nobody''s care
And all those years lead you down
Into a deep disrepair
There were dreams that you had
About long drives into the evening
But this life hit you hard
But if you bring me your broken-down heart
I will my best to restart it...
* * *
Tainted Consolation
A giving soul bears a guilty heart
Forever asking ''have I done my part''
Takes not comfort from a real good start
Just a tainted consolation
Your love it was a heavy stone
That built me up and then knocked me down
At least now I know I''m better off alone
But it''s a tainted consolation...
* * *
Not Possible
You thought that it not possible
That I would walk away
That in a flooding vessel
I would be the one who stayed
I have waited through good intentions
And I have waded through rising water
Your promises sink to the bottom
And I don''t want them
Pulling me under
* * *
60 Words for Water
If you listen to the whispers
Of the world''s thirsty souls
60 words for water is what they''ll tell you
If you don''t already know...
Already at my young age
I have habits that I wish were only phases
I don''t know, I don''t know why
I''ll see what happens when the rag is wrung dry...
* * *
Alibi
You asked me what was wrong
I searched for some reply
To sweep the tracks of where my thoughts had gone
I gave my mind an alibi...
* * *
A Wonderful Life
I''m floating around a little New England pond
And the bright stars in the sky look like all of America''s little towns
As if I''m flying over, the way I do in my dreams
One little back kick and I''m off, it''s easy
Then I think maybe that glimmer is God
Giving the rundown to Clarence
So he can come down to convince me
To go on and stick with it
But I know, it''s a wonderful life
And more or less, I would never deny it
I know...
* * *
Mobius
I wish your love could be the love
I wish my heart was meant for you
I wish we both had better reasons
For why we''re only passing through
I have a ribbon around my finger
Heart strings wound around my chest
No end and no beginning
A tangle fit for Mobius
