He left home when she was seventeen

We came back to see her

She was older cold and even mean

Not like we remembered



Out along the old road

Where the Indian Paintbrush grows

She began to cry and said she wanted us to know



There were hard times

When the family was broken

There were hard times

Then she lit up a smoke and said



Gonna open up my umbrella and keep it off of me

It's so easy to go somewhere

But so hard to leave

I move far away and still the memories find me there

When I hear the clock and see the dust come off the chair



There were hard times

I don't wanna remember

There were hard times

And I don't want to see ya



Let the wind and white sheet blow through the room

I can live with the ghosts but not with you

It was never so easy saying goodbye



Sitting at a bus stop

Waiting for euphoria

I've heard so much bad news today

I don't think I can take anymore

Of the hard times

Shadows on the horizon

All the hard times

Rusty glow in the sunriseOlivia



Lights on the river bridge roll to the water's edge

Filling the harbor with halos

The night was cold and black when they were walking back

He held her hand in the shadows



My favorite

There is so much more to see

Why stay behind

When you could go on with me?



Icicle centuries burst into gentle breeze

Somewhere a curse has been lifted

She turned around in her chair and he touched her hair

And the universe shifted



My favorite

There is so much more to see

Why stay behind

When you could go on with me?



Olivia

Why don't you let your heart come home?

Olivia

Leave those wild young boys alone



Out on the stormy cliff silvery waters lift

High with a wild wind behind them

Vaporous rippling like a drug or a dream

Eyes in the lamplight were shining



My favorite

There is so much more to see

Why stay behind

When you could go off with me?



Olivia

Won't you let your heart come home?

Olivia

Leave those wild young boys alone

    "I'm feeling feelings like I never felt before
    My head is reeling when I used to be so sure
    Of why I'm here and why it is I'm going there
    But now I fear I'm not getting anywhere..."
  • 1873 (Buffalo Diary)
    "1873 was a very bad year for me.
    When all I feared just disappeared so suddenly.
    They got their tickets for the train.
    Raised their weapons and took aim...."
  • Air of December
    "Thursday afternoon you cast a shadow 'round my room. The breeze moved the curtains and lifted my perfume into the air and danced with lazy curls in your hair. The sun was in the sky like pink champagne and it glistened in your eyes all day. I remember you put a chill across my face like the air of December. I swear I remember it that way. I swear I remember it. Where are you now? You stood by the lake. I wanted to take you for granted. The grass was thin and high. The water mirrored tiny sparkles to the sky. I remember you put a chill across my face like the air of december. I swear I remember it that way. I swear I remember it. Where are you now? In the by-myself mornings the birds windchime. The treelimbs crackle and the sunshine climbs up the sky like pink champagne that glistens in your eyes all day. I remember you put a chill across my face like the air of December. I swear I remeber it that way. I swear I remember it. Where are you know?

  • Beat the Time
    "I notice me. I notice you. I see a lot of thinigs that neither of us do. I notice me. I notice you too. And there are simple things that we don't even try anymore. There's a way out of this. Beat the time. And every time I turn around we got some clever way to put each other down. And eveytime I turn away I can't decide if I should go or should I stay with you. There's a way out of this. Beat the time. We can't leave these problems behind. So close the door and open you mind.
