Broken moon in the sky. Enough to pull up our eyes. From the ground where we hide. From the ground where we hide. . Gonna waste some time with you. And let this world go.
I'll lay my head in a stranger's town. All on a summer's day. A tangled web when the lights went down. And the sun came up far away. . And so over the great blue oceans.
(Dan Messe/Gary Maurer). . Ten dollars for the room. Torn blankets smell like old perfume. Then love checks in, trips a wire,. Skips the bill, sets a fire.
Blue sky and yellow sun. Paint the streets and the avenues. You float over everyone. In your rings and your wingtip shoes. . Well, I can't say. I'll know you when.
Sometimes when I lay down at night. I swear I can see to heaven. For it's in dreaming that the things I always knew. Are the only thoughts I have. . And when I look up at you, love.
He came to meet me. On some July morning. He said he missed me. He came without warning. . We walked for half a day. Got lost in my neighborhood. Came back another way.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas. Let your heart be light. Next year all our troubles. Will be out of sight. . Have yourself a merry little Christmas.
I am holding half an acre. Torn from the map of Michigan. And folded in this scrap of paper. Is a land I grew in. . Think of every town you've lived in.
Dance with me, now darlin', make me late. I've been hangin' 'round this barroom and I can wait. I can wait, now darlin', don't you know?. Dance with me, now darlin', sweet and slow.
Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel. That old storm brewin' in this heart of mine. Someday your crazy arms will hold somebody new. But now I'm so lonesome all the time.
In the sawed off light. Shooting down across the quarrel. Onto Lee. . They will rise and fight. On the bay and on the sorrel. To the north and Cincinnati.
We were raised in the nettles. And they showed us how they grow. Where a poison comes to settle. And what a poisoned man comes to know. . So me and Jessie, we left Ohio.

Someone's waving. Someone's counting. Someone's leaving. . There's fifty dollars on this pony. Chase him down these tracks. Well, won't nobody take my business.
Here's an easy one since it's getting late. Since you're half asleep and I couldn't wait. For the tired sun with its tired light. To wake up the world just to see you tonight.
Almost home, birds come by. But I still can't see the shore. The only thing I know for sure. The ocean has in store. . Every night, open eyed. I wait for the sun.
(Traditional). . Hush-a-bye, don't you cry. Go to sleep-y, little baby.. When you wake you shall have a cake.
Leave my station where I stood. To lay for a while with you. I got shadows snapping at my tail. Who say I'm no damn good. But that's just halfway through.
Overland through the rye. Gun in hand, bird in sky. Calling out to the world below. A hunting we will go. . Every field, ripe and fine. Every man, a friend of mine.
When I was a little girl my father used to say. "If trouble ever troubles you just dream your cares away". . A dream is a wish your heart makes. When you're fast asleep.
