Silver
We lay together knowing, pointing north, south, east and west
The future’s where we’re going and our present is undressed
And naked into morning still with starlight on our brow
To throw it back come eventide, together make the plough
Silver, in the silver light
To swim between the stars that shift in the dynamo of night
Exchange between us lovers’ gifts, like guesses out of sight
And falling down around us we catch the shooting stars
That scattering make morning dew, remind us who we are
Silver, in the silver light
And far beyond the world that wakes to the beckoning of the drum
Grows faint and in the silence makes us one together come
Between us, nothing can resist and nothing come what may
Nothing but the air we breathe ‘ere the breaking of our day
Silver, in the silver light

As My Sun Continues To Set
Sha sha sha…shadows lengthen,
Future days are less,
The pale light trips up the horizon
As my sun continues to set, my sun continues to set
Still part of the debate, I care about our children’s future
But as the green ray lights my sky
My heart is full and I can’t forget
These fragments that will stay until the end
Going back in time. Starting now
A picture of us…
(Family, the band)
The difference that music made…
(Back in time) the school bully, me and Julie laughing anyway
(Further back) new town no friends, new town no friends, new town no friends
Plastic snake skin boots and a feather cut
Monday evenings High Chaparral
A Zephyr in the driveway, mirrors like angel’s wings, like angel’s wings
Carry me away
Standing on a chair in church, please god, I so so so so so so
Want a bike
A post card from my mum written in my grandpa’s hand
My grandma scooping me up taking me to hospital - on the bus
My baby brothers through the glass, fast asleep, sh sh sh sh
Shattered memories,
Future days are less,
The pale light trips up the horizon
As my sun continues to set
As my sun continues to set…ending back at the beginning
I came down on Christmas morning
And it was there!

There's only one road under only one sky ...
There's only one road under only one sky
I know that I'll follow 'til the day that I fly
When a kind evolution has granted me wings
And a choice of the earth or the sky where to sing
To forget all the troubles I'm leaving behind
On my feet or in flight I'll still watch the sun shine
And wonder at rain on my feather or skin
And look where I'm going and where i've been
With my feet on the ground I can take to the air
With my head in the clouds you must know that I care
'Cause of you there's this song flying around in my head
Whether man, whether bird ...

Bodie
So long my love I’m going to Bodie
Across the plains where the Washoe once rode
Today it’s been and gone, only cobwebs hanging on
I’ll be taking the lonesome road
I know that I’ve done wrong, let me walk into the sun
Earth to earth, let me roam
I know that I’ve done wrong, but I can live with what I’ve done
Dust to dust, and I’m home
Goodbye my friend I’m going to Bodie
Through this godforsaken windswept land
Four years long, the gold and silver is gone
The deepest mines are full of sand
I know that I’ve done wrong, let me walk into the sun
Earth to earth, let me roam
I know that I’ve done wrong, but I can live with what I’ve done
Dust to dust, and I’m home
So long my love I’m going to Bodie
Where the dance hall ghosts sashay alone
The card house closed down, no saloon left in town
Only dust on the Booker Flat home
There’s only dust on the Booker Flat home
Only dust on the Booker Flat home
I know that I’ve done wrong, let me walk into the sun
Earth to earth, let me roam
I know that I’ve done wrong, but I can live with what I’ve done
Dust to dust, and I’m home
Goodbye God I’m going to Bodie
I won’t be good, and I won’t pray for my wife
Don’t trust me on the road, I’ll steal your water and your load…
I'll be gone, goodbye God, and this good life
Don’t trust me on the road, I’ll steal your water and your load…
And your gun, goodbye God, goodbye this life
