1. DIFFERENT WAVELENGTH
DRESSED IN WHITE, HERE I STAND. TIME FOR ANOTHER NIGHT.
STRAYED FAR AWAY FROM HOME, STRAYED FAR AWAY FROM HOME. NOW I’M
FALLIN’ ON MY KNEES, TRYIN’ TO SURRENDER, TRYIN’ TO GO BACK TO THE ROOTS.
WIND IS FLOWING FINALLY, RAIN IS COMING FINALLY.
THE DIRTY GIRL ON MY FEET, PLEASING ME LORD, GIVING ME PEACE.
I KNOW THE RUBBING NOW IS COMING CLOSE,

AS I TRANSPOSE INTO SOMETHING NEW,
WITH MY WOODEN SHOES, INTO A DIFFERENT KIND OF YOU.
WITH MY RESTLESS BONES, RATLIN’ IN THE WIND,
RATLIN’ IN THE WIND, ‘TILL A DOGGY COMES MY WAY.

2. ALL THOSE SPIRIT LIGHTS
YES I’VE BEEN TRAVELING A LONE LONE LONELY TIME,
OH AND KNOW WHAT IT IS TO PICK UP MY MIND.
KNOW I CAN’T HELP IT TO FIND THE SOUL INSIDE.
I HAD TO DO IT BY KNEELING ALL THE TIME,
TO ALL THOSE SPIRIT LIGHTS, TO ALL THOSE SPIRIT LIGHTS.

ALL THE TIMING, THAT I’VE DONE SO LONG,
FOR ALL THE FIELDS OF JUST ONE STAR.
JUST BREATHE OUT INTO A NEW BEGINNING.
THERE’S NOTHING WHAT I CAN KEEP.

DON’T HOLD ME TIGHT, SWEET SISTER OF THE NIGHT.
TAKE ME HOME, AND SOUL ME BACK HOME, RIGHT NOW.
HERE IN THE WILD BULL, USE MY MIND.
I WILL, I WILL, WILL, LOSE MY MIND.
HIGH, HIGH, HIGH, HIGH, HIGH.

I WILL LOSE MY MIND, I WILL LOSE MY MIND, I WILL LOSE MY MIND,

I WILL LOSE MY MIND.

3. DISSOLVING INTO THE BLUE
YEAH I ‘VE BEEN SAD AND LONELY, EVER SINCE YEAH,
I’VE BEEN SAD AND LONELY, MY LITTLE FRIEND.
YEAH I’VE BEEN WALKING WITH MY BIG FEET, ALL OVER THE WORRY.

SO IF I FEEL SAD AND LONELY, AND I JUST CAN’T HELP MYSELF,
WELL I WILL ALWAYS, FIND MY WAY BACK HOME.

YEAH YOU KNOW I’VE BEEN LONG TIME TREMBLING. ALMOST LOSE MY MIND.
BUT I KNOW THAT SOMEDAY, I WILL FIND MY WAY BACK.

ALL THOSE NITTY GRITTY THAT WE ONCE KNEW, ALL THE NITTY GRITTY THAT WE ONCE KNEW, THEY’RE GONNA DISSOLVE SOMEDAY, MAMA, THEY’RE GONNA DISSOLVE INTO THE BLUE.
“IS THERE A STORY TO TELL?”

ALL THOSE SAD AND LONELY, AIN’T WE ALL? SOMEDAY EVERYBODY’S GOT TO LOSE.
AND SOMEDAY I WILL RISE ON THE FOUR.

OH HEAR THE BIRDS SINGING, SITTING IN THE HIGHEST TREE.
WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN, EVERYBODY’S GOT TO LOSE.
WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN, EVERYBODY’S GOT TO LOSE.

4. I’LL FIND MY WAY BACK HOME
WELL SHAKE IT UP, MOVE YOURSELF, I LITTLE OLD HOUR OUT OF THE WELL.
I ASK YOU KNOW, I GOT A JOKE, I NEED TO FIND MY WAY. WISH YOU THE BEST, MAMA WISH YOU ALL THE BEST FOR NOW.

RATTLE IT UP IN THE SMALL TOWN NOW, SINGING THE BLUES AND LIE UP TOWN.
I GOT TO FIND, I GOT TO FIND, I GOT TO FIND, I GOT TO FIND, MY WAY.

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT I SAID COCOCO, I NEED TO FIND A LITTLE BIT OF ROCK AND ROLL. I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, TO MY HEART.

IF YOU SEE THE SHOOTING STAR, SWEET ANGEL DON’T YOU WEEP. MOVE AHEAD, I GOTTA FIND MY WAY. AND I KNOW THAT, I’LL FIND THE DOOR BACK HOME.

I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, I NEED TO FIND MY WAY, TO MY HEART.

RING THE BELL IF YOU DON’T REALLY KNOW BUDDY . YOU GOTTA FIND YOUR WAY BACK HOME SWEET LIL’ ANGEL. GOT A FIND A WAY BACK HOME, BAK HOME.

I’M GONNA CALL UP MY WOODEN SHOES AND SEE, I’M WALK MY FEET THOSE MILES AND KNOW, I GOT A LONESOME TRACK AND I’LL FIND MY WAY, I GOT A LONESOME TRACK AND I’LL FIND MY WAY. STAND OUT STRAIGHT, MOVING LATE, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT I SAY TURN OFF MY BRAIN.

I’LL FIND MY WAY BACK HOME

IT’S A SLOW TURTLE SUNDANCE.

6. RIDING WITH THE WIND
WELL I LOOKED OUT, OF YOUR EYES, AND I GOT WARM, FOR A NICE SURPISE.
I READ THE WHOLE STORY, COLD-HEARTED. DID YOU SIT ON ME? AND NOW I’M JUST A BOY, RIDING WITH THE WIND. AND NOW I’M JUST A BUM, RIDING WITH THE WIND.
AND NOW I’M JUST A BUM, RIDING WITH THE WIND.

AND NOW I’M JUST A BUM, RIDING WITH THE WIND.
AND NOW I’M JUST A BUM, RIDING WITH THE WIND.

7. ON THE BLUE LINE
WELL I’VE BEEN A SONG, AND I’VE BEEN SUNG BY YOU. YOUR LIPS IN THE VIBRATION OF THE LOVE.
I’M HOLDING THE TRUE SPIRIT OF SOUL IN YOU. OH I CAN’T HOLD ON IF I’M COMING TOO, ‘CAUSE I’VE BEEN OUT, HEALING THE WORLD.
WAS I LAZY JUST TO, BE BY MYSELF? WAS I LAZY JUST TO DRINK, ALL BY MYSELF? WAS I FOOLISH JUST TO BE BY MYSELF? WAS I THINKING I JUST DIDN’T WATCH MYSELF?
WELL ON BLUE 1, I KNOW I’M JUST ALL ALONE. WELL ON BLUE LINE 1, I THINK I’M ALL ALONE. ON THE BLUE LINE, I’M TALKING TO MYSELF. ON THE BLUE LINE, I’M BLEEDING OUT. ON THE BLUE LINE, AM I SINGING NOW? IN THE BLUE LINE, AM I SINGING NOW? ON THE BLUE LINE, AM I SINGING NOW?
WELL I DID NOT EXPECT, HOW YOU ONCE WOULD HIT ME BABY. BUT YOU HURT ME LIKE I NEVER NEVER NEVER HURT BEFORE.
I HOPE WE HAVE SPOKEN ABOUT IT ALL, BUT NOW I’M LOSING ALL CONTROL. I CAN NOT LIVE WITH THESE LIES NO MORE.
ON THE BLUE LINE, TALKING TO MYSELF. ON THE BLUE LINE, BLEEDING OUT WITH HELP. ON THE BLUE LINE, TALKING TO MYSELF. ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE.
ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE.

ON THE BLUE LINE, ON THE BLUE LINE,

8. CLENCHING MY TEETH
IN THE MISTY MORNING, I FALL INTO A TRANCE. I DON’T KNOW WHY I’M STARTING THIS, NEW ROMANCE. THERE’S BLOOD OUT HERE, ON MY HANDS. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND, WHY I START A NEW ROMANCE.
IT’S BEEN HAZY, SINCE I WAS BORN THIS WAY. IT’S BEEN HAZY, BUT I LIKE THAT WAY. BUT I FEEL GUILTY, GUILTY OF LIFE. BUT I FEEL STILL, SO OBLIGED. ALL MY HEART IS TRUE, ALL MY HEART IS GREED.
CLENCHING MY TEETH. CLENCHING MY TEETH. CLENCHING MY TEETH. CLENCHING MY TEETH.

ARE YOU HOME NOW? ARE YOU SATISFIED? MAYBE THE SAME, SAID MY WIFE. I LOVE HER STILL, TILL THE MORNING COMES. WE TRANSFORM INTO SOMETHING NEW.
THE WAY IS OUT, I CALL UNTO YOUR DOOR. AND NOW I’M GONNA SING THE BLUES. I CAN TAKE LAST CHEER.

IN THE EARLY NOW IN SONG, IN THE EARLY NOW IN SONG. IN THE EARLY NOW IN SILENCE, IN THE EARLY NOW IN SILENCE. I TWISTED THE KEY. I TWISTED YOU AND ME. AND WHAT IN THE WORLD? WHAT IN THE WORLD?

9. YOU AND ME      #2                                                                                                                                                                                                  I DRANK THE SOMBRERO. IT WAS NICE AND WARM. AND I FOUND OUT THERE’S NO DIFFERENCE, BETWEEN YOU & ME. THERE AIN’T NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU & ME. BETWEEN YOU & ME. BETWEEN YOU & ME.
AND ALL ALONG NOW. I TRIED TO GIVE THE BEST I EVER HAD. AND NOW IT’S TIME TO DISSOLVE, TRANSPOSE INTO A NEW COAT. AND THERE AIN’T NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU & ME. BECAUSE THERE AIN’T NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOU & ME.
YOU & ME
YOU & ME
YOU & ME

10. IT WAS ON THE EARTH #2                                                                                                                                                                             I DRANK A CUP OF COFFEE, TASTED SOME, SAME AS BEFORE. COULDN’T EXPRESS NO MORE.
THE GUILTY FEELING OF PLEASURE, IN A WORLD TORN APART. A LONELY PEACE, THOUGH IT LOOKS SO FREE.
THE PASTURES THAT WE’RE WALKING THROUGH, OF FOOD, OUT THERE IS FOOD, THAT WE’RE GOING TO EAT THE WHOLE WINTER THROUGH.
AS I DENY ANOTHER GRAVE. WITH MY BODY NOW, SOMEONE IS GONNA LAY INSIDE OF IT.
I’M GONNA STEP OUTSIDE AND WALK IT THROUGH THE MIDNIGHT HOUR. THE DARK MOMENTS THAT I NEED SO BAD.
HERE IN THE SILENCE OF FOREVER, I’M STARTING ALL OVER AGAIN. I TRY TO FORGIVE MY SELF, TRANSPARENT AS THE SKY.
AS I WOULD ALWAYS BE DANGLING LIKE, A PUPPET THERE IN THE STREAM. THEY CAN’T MAKE ME GO ON FORVER IF THEY PLEASE.
IT WAS ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH.
THIS HEART IS SPEAKING NOW AND SOLEMNLY SWEARING, IT’S TIME TO GO NOW AND BLEED OUT ANOTHER DAY.
THIS OLD CRAZY FOOL HAS BEEN BRANDISHING HIS OWN DIRECTION. HE’S FALLING RIGHT THROUGH THE GROUND.
IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH.
IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH. IT WAS ON THE EARTH. ON THE EARTH.

11. REMEMBER                                                                                                                                                                                                       AS I STEP THROUGH YOUR DOOR AND DON’T REMEMBER WHO I AM, YOU MIGHT HELP ME TO REMEMBER.
AS I STEP THROUGH THE DOOR AND DON’T REMEMBER WHO I AM, IT MIGHT FEEL LIKE COMING HOME.
ALL THE FOOTSTEPS, ALL THE CHILDREN. YOU AND I ARE JUST THE CHILDREN TOO.
THE SCARS MIGHT HURT, ‘CAUSE GOD IT’S PAINFUL HERE. IT SEEMS SO SEPARATED NOW.
BUT IF I FALL INTO A TRANCE, AND I GET INTO THAT ROMANCE, WHAT OUR LOVE IS ALL ABOUT.
AS I STEP TO THE DOOR, , AND I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER JUST LIKE YESTERDAY.
IT WAS JUST LIKE YESTERDAY, SO CLEAR IN MY MIND, BUT THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT CAN EXPRESS THIS WAY.
SOBER AS A BABY CHILD, WITH MUSIC IN OUR MINDS.
IN OUR MIDST AS A CANDLE THAT BURNS, FULL THROTTLE NOW, SHOOK UP THAT SEPARATED FEELING THAT BEEN THERE FOR MUCH TOO LONG.
GOT TO COME RIGHT CLOSE, GOTTA COME RIGHT CLOSE, LOOK IN YOUR FACE, AND REMEMBER ALL I REALLY AM.
REMEMBER WHO I REALLY AM, JUST LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.

AS YOUR HAND COMES CLOSER, TILL IT TOUCHES MINE. THERE AIN’T NO MORE SEPARATION, AND NOW I REMEMBER JUST WHO YOU ARE.
NOW I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER WHO WE ARE.
NOW I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE.
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE.
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE.
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER , I REMEMBER.
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER,
AND NOW WHERE’S THE GLIDING WIND, THAT GUIDES YOU HOME? YOU DON’T NEED TO REMEMBER HOW TO FLY.
YOU GOT TO GET BREATH INTO YOUR OWN HEART, REMEMBER WE’RE TOGETHER AND NOT APART. EVEN WITH EYES CLOSED.
I REMEMBER, JUST LIKE YESTERDAY. I REMEMBER, WE CAN HEAR THE PLAY. I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER.
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER,
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER
I REMEMBER, I REMEMBER.
