White bird,
in a golden cage,
on a winter’s day,
in the rain.
So I lay upon my side
With all the windows open wide
Couldn’t pressurize my head from speaking…
I’m just sitting watching flowers in the rain
Feel the power of the rain making the garden grow
I hear the drizzle of the rain
Like a memory it falls
Soft and warm continuing
Tapping on my roof and walls.
Remember a day before today
A day when you were young
Free to play alone with time
Evening never came.
Do you recall
That lonely summer day?
We were together and things got in our way
Well, so you think that it’s all over
And you know it’s gone to stay
Oh, after stormy weather
Does the sun shine every day?
You were the sunshine, baby, whenever you smiled
But I call you Stormy today
All of a sudden that ole rain’s fallin’ down
And my world is cloudy and gray, you’ve gone away
She said “hi” and asked me why
Was I looking with sorrow
When there were much brighter days
In store for me tomorrow
I looked up at her and smiled
And said, why I don’t know
But would she agree, to stay with me
And she said
Never in your sun, she said
Never in your sun, then she said
I will only come
In your pouring rain to relieve the pain
I met my maker
I made her cry
And on my shoulder she asked me why
Her people won’t fly through the storm
I said “Listen up girl, they don’t even know you’re born”
Ridin’ the storm out
Waitin’ for the thaw out
On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain winter
My wine bottle’s low
Watching for the snow
I’ve been thinking lately of what I’m missing in the city
Standing on a mountain looking down on a city
The way I feel is a doggone pity
Teardrops fallin’ down a mountainside
Many times I’ve been here, many times I’ve cried
We used to be so happy when we were in love
High on a mountain of love
The buildings are lost in their limitless rise
My feet catch the pulse and the purposeful stride
I feel the sense of possibilities
I feel the wrench of hard realities
The focus is sharp in the city
Leave out the fiction
The fact is, this friction
Will only be won by persistence
Leave out conditions
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence
The winner takes it all
The loser’s standing small
Beside the victory
That’s her destiny
The battle’s over and the dust is clearing
Disciples of the Snow Dog sound the knell
Rejoicing echoes as the dawn is nearing
By-Tor, in defeat, retreats to Hell
Snow Dog is victorious
The land of the Overworld is saved again
Me and you and a dog named Boo
Travellin’ and livin’ off the land
Me and you and a dog named Boo
How I love being a free man.
I see ya’ little speed boat head up our coast
She really want to skip town
Get back cruffy, back scruffy,
Get back u flea infested mungrel
Who let the dogs out? [Who, who, who, who?!]
Who let the dogs out? [Who, who, who, who?!]
Who let the dogs out? [[who, who, who, who?!]
All day long I think of things
But nothing seems to satisfy
Think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t
Find something to gratify.
The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush
The knot in the wood, the song of a thrush
The will of the wind, a cliff, a fall
A scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all
What does the free fall feel like?
Asks the boy with a spark in his eye
Know why the nightingale sings
Is the answer to everything
Taking a step to a world unbound
Spin my fantasies all around
Freed from the gravital leash
I swear that heaven’s in my reach
(Bravo, Prof. That is one of my absolute most favorite songs!!)
And who by fire, who by water,
who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
who in your merry merry month of May,
who by very slow decay,
and who shall I say is calling?
