Reading the paper saw a review
Said I was a visionary, but nobody knew
Now that's been a problem
feeling unseen
Just like I'm living somebody's dream

What am I doing anyway
Telling myself it's not too late

I'm not a young man but I'm a child in
my soul
I feel there's room for a man who
is whole
And there's a need for songs that
are sung
For chances not taken for deeds not
yet done

What am I doing anyway
Telling myself it's not too late
Lyrics
My children look away they don't know
what to say
My children look away they don't know
what to say

So that's been a problem
feeling unheard
So called visions always deferred
It must be the reason I developed
this need
You know you should never believe
what you read

What am I doing anyway
Telling myself it's not too late

My children look away they don't know
what to say
My children look away they don't know
what to say


. . .



In the late of the evening
With the cold in my eyes
I'm a madman out on a bad man route
Looking for paradise
She says slow down baby slow down now
Come 'round and get me I'll show you
show you show you how

When the play is unoriginal
And the cast scrapes and bows
And the only way you can seize the day
Is to blend into the crowd
She says slow down baby slow down now
Come 'round and get me I'll show you
show you show you how

You can float downstream let the past
be the past
You can wake up from a dream and find
your other half
LyricsResurrection will come apparition will go
And the shadow singer will stand
and linger
In places no one ever goes

When the stage is dead and empty
And the band had all gone home
When the lights go out what's it
all about
Sitting there on your own
She says slow down baby slow down now
Come 'round and get me I'll show you
show you show you how


. . .



I hear your heart as you pass through
I know the pain that you feel I'll
shepherd you

Under the skin everything shows under
the skin
Anything goes for the asking under
the skin

I know it's hard being so hard to find
Your passion swallows you whole deaf
dumb and blind

Under the skin everything grows under
the skin
Anything goes for the asking under
the skin

When the shadows fall on the one-way wall
And you feel so small where do
Lyricsyou belong
When your soul falls out and you're
filled with doubt
And the silhouettes shout where do
you belong

Lay your head down no one will see
Cry me a river of new dreams float
yourself free

Under the skin everything shows under
the skin
Anything goes for the asking under
the skin
Under the skin everything grows under
the skin
Anything goes for the asking under
the skin

I am waiting I am waiting oh yeah

Waiting for someone to come out

Waiting for someone to come out

You can't hold out you can't hold out

You can't hold out you can't hold out
oh yeah oh yeah
Waiting for someone to come out

Waiting for someone to come out

Like a winter storm fear will pierce

Every day now how the time has flown
Every day now I am finally home
Because I waited for a woman who
was true
I waited for a woman it was you
Back in '99 our love just in time
If we had had to wait we would be too late
Caught in history future I couldn't see
You saw oh so clear past is gone
William's here
Love him and watch him grow

Every day now I can hear the sound
Every day now love is all around
Because I waited for a woman who
was true
I waited for a woman it was you
Back in '99 our love was just in time
If we had had to wait we would be too late
Caught in history future I couldn't see
LyricsYou saw oh so clear past is gone
Leelee's here
Love her and watch her grow

Back in '99 our love was just in time
If we had had to wait we would be too late
Caught in history future I couldn't see
You saw oh so clear past is gone
Stella's here
Love them and watch them grow
I waited for a woman who was true
I waited for a woman it was you


. . .



We huddled in the derelict building
The gypsy girl and I
We made our beds together
With the rain and tears in our eyes
And who will be the one
To say it was no good what we done
I dare anyone dare anyone to say we
were too young
We were only trying for the sun

Mirror mirror in the sky
Won't you look what's happening
here below
No one knows what's going on
Can you give us a sign where to go
And who will be the one
To say it was no good what we done
I dare anyone dare anyone to say we
were too young
We were only trying for the sun
We were only trying for the sun
We were only trying for the sun


. . .



Holy light visionary sight there's been a
change in plans
Going away no I cannot stay I hope
you'll understand
I won't be home tonight I'll just slip out
of sight
Lay down my visionary eyes dancing on
my cast away dreams
Keep yourself out of sight farewell to the
wishes that died
Look for me in the morning light dancing
on my cast away dreams

Magic one all our dreams are done I
have no faith today
Sun will rise in your newborn eyes just
let me slip away
I won't be home tonight I'll just slip out
of sight
Lay down my visionary eyes dancing on
Lyricsmy cast away dreams
Keep yourself out of sight farewell to the wishes that died
Look for me in the morning light dancing
on my cast away dreams

It would do no good to drown in the sea
Where no one remembers their name
and nothing but nothing is free

Hearts will break with choices we must
make so sleep and dream of me
I won't be home tonight I'll just slip out
of sight
Lay down my visionary eyes dancing on
my cast away dreams
Keep yourself out of sight farewell to the wishes that died
Look for me in the morning light dancing
on my cast away dreams
Look for me in the morning light dancing
on my cast away dreams


. . .



Oh you and I we sure can dream
Of conversations that might have been
I know that I treat you unkind
And long ago I lost my mind
And even after all these years
I can't even see you clear
I know that you must lie sometimes
To hide the truth you're trying to find
Oh I won't shut us down
No I will stay around
As long as I can
As long as I can
Even after all these years
I can't even see you clear
A child is born another dies
And every life has its price
Oh I won't shut us down
No I will stay around
As long as I can
As long as I can
As long as I can
As long as I can
As long as I can


. . .



After the music ended there was
nowhere to go but down
Faces of glass all hung in the past they
only come here to drown
They were long gone far gone nowhere
else to go
Long gone far gone down on Rodeo

We never took quite enough chances we
never had quite enough time
I did about a thousand dances but
nothing would change your mind
You were long gone far gone putting on
you show
Long gone far gone down on Rodeo

I'm going where nobody's gone before
ain't never coming back
Going where nobody's gone before ain't
never coming back

That's just the way it goes sometimes
the price is a little too much
Two little children on reveille hill we
looked but we couldn't touch
We were long gone far gone looking in
the window
Long gone far gone down on Rodeo


. . .



Little children out in the rain
Slipping and sliding covered in pain
Bodies broken soaked to the bone
Little children going on home
I know I know someone's gotta make
them feel fine
And so and so someone's gotta change
your mind

Flying down Juniper three wheel line
Long gone kiss it goodbye
Mother and Father covered in snow
Little children going on home
I know I know someone's gotta make
them feel fine
And so and so someone's gotta change
your mind

I know I know someone's gotta make
them feel fine
And so and so someone's gotta change
your mind
Nothing to prove your blood is mine
I have no children just some design
Woven mystery that fills up this womb
No little children left to go home


. . .



Fathers and mothers all those years ago
Did you every did you ever know
My sisters and my brothers all dead and gone
Did you know that wishing won't make it so
All the children flying down Juniper
All going where children go
All the children flying down Juniper
Let us go

And did you ever wonder the places we would go
And did you realize we felt your woe
All the children flying down Juniper
All going where children go
All the children flying down Juniper
Let us go

If we forgive ourselves we might be whole
But you know that wishing won't make it so
All the children flying down Juniper
All going where children go
All the children flying down Juniper
Let us go
Let us go
