lyrics to my newest:

Oh my baby sisters, where’d you go?
I don’t know
Are you out there in the cold?
And father, you keep falling slow.
Where’d you go?
Are you blowing like the snow?
And mother, please don’t let me go
Down below
Where they’re waiting for my soul
Plant something in my heart that grows
A light to show
The way I should take home

I guess doors have to close
Everybody knows
The seasons have to turn
And mountains erode
The colour of your eyes
Starts to match the skies
Your head down to your toes
It comes and it goes

God in heaven please don’t let me know
It’s time to go
Until I finish the show
Leave the lights on please just let them glow
Let them glow
Or let them fade painfully slow





– trust me, it’s a heartbreaker in a falsetto….capoed at the 6th fret, G-C-D-Am-Em figures….
