Angels falling through my hair
I want to meet them tomorrow

Gade kijan n'ap mache
Gade kijan n'ape cheche demen
Nou pa men'm gen couraj
Men l'anj-lan ap desann
Pou ba nou couraj

Pou nou ka travay
Lap ban nou fos
Pou nou ka rive jus kote nou prale

Be My Somebody

I'm too foggy today
To know what you're sayin'
Your lips are moving so fast
And I just keep praying
For them to slow down
So I can make some sense
Of the words that are pouring out
Of your crooked spout

Last night was a record to be broken
It broke all over the kitchen floor
Oh no don't you go
I'm coming back with a rag
To wipe away the haze from the days
We've forgotten all about

So be my somebody tonight
Be the one who'll hold me tight
Honey, please, please
Cuz I've been so all alone
And no one will pick up the phone
So honey, please stay

I held your head up, do you remember
When you wanted to make a blanket outta me
Oh I can't lie … I been keeping score
And it's your turn to wring me out
And lay me down to dry

So be my somebody tonight
Be the one who'll hold me tight
Honey, please, please
Cuz I've been so all alone
And no one will pick up the phone
So honey, please stay
Honey, please stay
Honey, please stay

Not My Friend



Help me breathe
Help me believe
You seem really glad that I am sad

You are not my friend
I cannot pretend that you are

You made it sting
Your voice is ringing
Just like the boys who laughed at me in school

You are not my friend
I cannot pretend anymore

You found a place
No one should ever go

I'll be ok
'Cause when I back away
I'm gonna keep the handle of your gun in sight

Wish I Could

We met in a place I used to go
Now I just walk by it for show
Can't bear to go in without you know
Wish I could
Wish I could

But Annie is standing in the door
With a look on her face I can't just ignore
She tells me that her heart is sore
And pulls me in
She pulls me in

She says "love in the time of war is not fair"
"He was my man but they didn't care"
"Sent him far away from here"
"No goodbye"
"No goodbye"

I don't tell her that I once loved you too
Or about all the things we used to do
I kiss her hair and think of you
Walking down
The road you found

We met in a place I used to go
Now I only walk by it slow
Can't bear to go in without you know
Wish I could
Wish I could
Wish I could
Wish I could

Sinkin' Soon

We're an oyster cracker on the stew
And the honey in the tea
We're the sugar cubes, one lump or two
In the black coffee
The golden crust on an apple pie
That shines in the sun at noon
We're a wheel of cheese high in the sky
But we're gonna be sinkin' soon

In a boat that's built of sticks and hay
We drifted from the shore
With a captain who's too proud to say
That he dropped the oar
Now a tiny hole has sprung a leak
In this cheap pontoon
Now the hull has started growing weak
And we're gonna be sinkin' soon

We're gonna be
Sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
Sinkin' soon
Everybody hold your breath 'cause
We're gonna be sinkin' soon

We're gonna be
Sinkin' soon
We're gonna be
Sinkin' soon
Everybody hold your breath 'cause
Down and down we go

Like the oyster cracker on the stew
The honey in the tea
The sugar cubes, one lump or two
No thank you none for me
We're the golden crust on an apple pie
That shines in the sun at noon
Like the wheel of cheese high in the sky
Well... we're gonna be sinkin' soon

Not Too Late

Tell me how you've been,
Tell what you've seen,
Tell me that you'd like to see me too.

'cause my heart is full of no blood,
My cup is full of no love,
Couldn't take another sip even if I wanted.

But it's not too late,
Not too late for love.


My lungs are out of air,
Yours are holding smoke,
And it's been like that now for so long.

I've seen people try to change,
And I know it isn't easy,
But nothin' worth the time never really is.

And it's not too late,
It's not too late for love,
For love,
For love,
For love. . .

Rosie's Lullaby



She walked by the ocean,

And waited for a star,

To carry her away.



Feelin' so small,

At the bottom of the world,

Lookin' up to God.



She tries to take deep breaths,

To smell the salty sea,

As it moves over her feet.



The water pulls so strong,

And no-one is around,

And the moon is looking down.




Sayin',

Rosie - come with me,

Close your eyes - and dream.



The big ships are rollin',

And lightin' up the night,

And she calls out, but they just pass her by.



The waves are crashin',

But not making a sound,

Just mouthing along.



Sayin',

Rosie - come with me,

Close your eyes and dream,

Close your eyes and dream,

Close your eyes and dream.

The Sun Doesn't Like You

The sun doesn't like you, you always get burned,
Stay in the shade and watch the world turn.
Better find a new place to lay on the ground,
Can't stay where you are or you're gonna be found.

And time won't pass you by,
And I won't tell you lies.

So tonight ... we can build a fire,
In the open field past the razor wire.
Sneak by the dogs when they go to sleep,
Bring part of yourself that you'll let me keep.

'cause time won't pass us by,
And I won't tell you lies,
Someday I will ask you why ... but not now.

And time won't pass us by,
And you won't tell me lies,
Someday we all have to die ... but not now.

Broken

He's got a broken voice and a twisted smile,
Guess he's been that way for quite awhile,
Got blood on his shoes and mud on his brim,
Did he do it to himself or was it done to him?

People think he don't look well,
But all he needs from what I can tell,
Is someone to help wash away all the paint,
From his purple hands before it gets too late.

I saw him stand alone ... under a broke street light,
So sincere ... singing silent night,
But the trees were full ... and the grass was green,
It was the sweetest thing I had ever seen.

He may move slow,
But that don't mean he's going nowhere,
He may be moving slow,
But that don't mean he's going nowhere.

The Nearness of You

why do i just wither and forget all resistance
when you and your magic pass by
my heart's in a dither dea
