Lyrics:

Chances She came down from the mountain, did not remember my name. We went down to the creek side where I would decide it was the end of the game. Shimmering candlelight, dances with water upon your skin. And it's looking like, I might stay awhile and be quenched by you once again. So don't look that way, til you see what I'm seeing. Find your way, in the dark. Don't look that way, til you see what I'm seeing. Find your way. Take your chances, find your way. Take your chances, find your way. My soul wants to know what it is, you seek. And I wish for you to wish for me as I lay you in my bed to sleep                                                            Somehow Life is a series just a series of storms separated but related by sunny days. With the occasional glimpse from the top of a mountain that puts it all in perspective somehow. Try not to forget your humble place, somehow, all in the balance of your time and space. Tiny water beetle was the first to cross the ocean and return with some fire in a bowl on his back. And the great bird with his wings cast the mountains from the valleys and that is how it came to be somehow. Hindsight vision is always twenty- twenty but ahead so hazy so don?t miss your turn. You can count all the stars on the canvas when your sleepy, make your wish when they decide to crash and burn.                                                         Becky Well, now look at me Becky, I'm wasted again. And your valley is laughing at the fool I've been, the fool I've been. Well now look at me Becky, cause you are all I see. And if there is something you've been hiding on your other side I wish you would give up girl, show it up to me.It's late afternoon and the sun's fading shadows cast that surreal glow on your beautiful face. And everytime that I see you I just want to freeze the time but with that sun you will vanish without a trace, without a trace. Well now look at Becky, and don't turn away. Cause the hours I have longed for you now are my borrowed days, my borrowed days.                                                         Spiral There is a girl down in Denver, hanging out in the parking lot.And she's worried about my gig much more than I'll ever be. It's a shame she don't get it, she can't get down to my level. It's a shame your radio, it's a shame your MTV. There is a kid, Zephyr Texas, rides life like a prize bull. He's been thrown off a time or two but he always lands on his feet. Now he's somewhere down in Florida, listening to Bob Marley. There were days when we were totting sand that I swore he had it all figured out.Are we, on some downward turn of an evolutionary crash and burn. Falling straight from the sky in a bed that we sinned in. Mean mister gravity, always seems to have his hands on me. Falling straight from the sky in a bed that we sinned in.Fifteen minute, attention span. Fifteen minute, attention span. Balanced on the high wire ain't this here life a circus show. Balanced on the high wire ain't no safety net down below, so don?t look down.Thirty minute, attention span. Thirty minute, attention span. Well they wrapped us in a package and they sent us on down the line. And we thought there for a moment that everything would work out fine. It's a shame how they got me in that box I'm in. It's a shame how I'll die there, it's a shame how I live.                                                            Pawn Passing through a time when crescent moon hangs high. No love in the stars, facing western sky. Still she's longing for you though you can't be found. Everyone can hear you when you make no sound. When the skies open wide, you are still a pawn. Pause for just one moment on your noble path. Noble only cause you fought your way back here. In the castle walls the ruler's tears are sad. You cannot give back, what you never had. On your dying day, you are still a pawn. The poet sat before them with nothing to say. The joker sighed relief, it was not his day. The silence it said all his heart tried to conceal. Now he spends his days laboring in the fields. When the sun is sinking low, you are still a pawn.                                               Casually Moves On She led you to a place with water and seed, still you remain just a stride behind. It makes no sense your morning song, so she casually moves on. And you remain, you remain a stride behind. The forest is old for all to behold. Life just a dot in the scope of time. A minute could be ten thousand years, all depends how you time your days. And you remain, you remain a stride behind. Fade in, fade out or fade away, like the desert radio. Stretches of highway with no one on them. I am no one on them. And you remain, you remain a stride behind. Casually moves on. Casually moves on.                                               Rumplestiltskin Attention starved lier, riding in a box from town to town. No one wants to hear about your romantic ups and downs. You'll never guess my name. You'll never guess my name. You can try to trick her with riddles wise and tom- foolery. Someday she will find out all you've been hiding so secretly. You'll never guess my name. You'll never guess my name. But everyday the secret to surviving, all of the sorrow in my way. Is everyday knowing I'll be finding, a place that I can hide in when that music starts to play. Insane laughter, dancing all alone in your den. Her ears pressed to the door as you give away the answer from with-in. Your name is Rumplestiltskin. Your name is Rumplestiltskin. I will give to you some gold if you can only guess my name, guess my name                                              Parkway Blue Blinder Well the days are short and the nights are long. A room slowly fills with song. All I need is one reminder, Parkway Blue Blinder.Well I begged and cheated and I borrowed, for my life upon the road. I'm still looking for some gold, at the end of my rainbow.Someday, I will find her. On a Parkway Blue Blinder.On the Parkway, on an Autumn day. Leaves fall like confetti, in a New York parade. In a strange way I know I care. Of you and me in truth or dare. So into my lover's eyes I stare, perfect circles in a square                                            Train Song Train this morning, she ran a little late. Filled with people, don't know love from hate. Time stole their lives away, nothing left to do but play and boy your heading the wrong way. Rain was falling, we couldn't budge the ground. Clouds rolled in without a sound. Don't matter what your daddy say there's nothing left to do but play and boy your heading the wrong way. Dream is there and then it's gone, your memory lies and it pulls you on. Caught by something bigger than this storm. People become shadows then that stranger over there used to be your friend, then you'll have to face yourself alone. Someday you'll have to face yourself alone. Train this morning she ran a little late. Filled with people simple pawns of fate. Time stole their lives away there's nothing left to do but play, boy your heading the wrong way.
