When the sun set over the desert
Was it me that you tried to forget?
When the night fell over the water
We would never be the same again
And it was something that I thought I could find
But no words could have changed your mind
Another river stone for the fire
Another woman who just wanted your time
When the star shot over the mountain
And you lay with another's skin
As the wind tore through the cedars
I would never be the same again
And it was something that I thought I could find
But no words could have changed your mind
Another river stone for the fire
Another woman who just wanted your time
I guess it felt right
I guess it felt right
Lie after lie after life
Was it really that hard to say good bye?
Ooh ha ha
Ooh ha ha
Ooh ha ha
Ooh ooh
And you gave it all away
And you gave it all away now
And you gave it all away now
Ooh ha ha
Ooh ha ha
Ooh ha ha
Ooh aha ah hoo

You're not awake
Dream time
Heart tired
Runnin' in your sleep
Haunt my weary eyes
Some time to think
Night ride
Dark mind
Down to New York State
A new life
Silver line
And it's only an illusion
When you wake it'll break your heart
I'm not holding out for your love
While you run away from what you want
You're not awake
Rewind
No time
Was it a mistake to keep my love alive?
And it's only an illusion
When you wake it'll break your heart
I'm not holding out for your love
While you hide away
La La La La La
And it's only an illusion
When you wake it'll break your heart
I'm not holding out for your love

Sing me to sleep
Then wake me from this bad dream
My heart is breaking
The whole thing my baby
And what is right when the light goes out?
When the heart won't hold?
When it all falls apart?
And it's not alright
It's not alright
Hold my tightly
And tell me everything
I'm dreaming of you playing
While I'm singing on the floor
And what is right when the light goes out?
When the heart won't hold?
When it all falls apart?
And what is the right away to say goodbye?
When it's been a whole life?
When it's been a long time?
And it's not alright
Not alright
It's not alright
And it's not alright
Not alright
It's not alright
This is not alright
Not alright
It's not alright no
This is not alright
Not alright
It's not alright no

The calm
Never lasted for long
Every time
Holding on for dear life
You spin in circles
And follow pain to feel alive
Alive
But it's cold
In that heart of yours
A phone call
And you're gone
True love
Isn't what you think you want
A heart wide open
You try so hard to walk away
But I will say
That it's cold
In that heart of yours
A phone call
And you're gone
Gone
You're gone
Gone
Gone

Falling hard
The hurt deep
I can't sleep
I can hear the rain
Falling on the concrete
This city is haunting me
Every corner a reminder
Every street
Every night
Every morning
I can feel you hear next to me
But my eyes can't see you
It all dissipates
And the walls come tumbling down
Around me
Around
And the rain falls heavier now
Until the city drowns
And the sirens sound
Am I alive?
I can't breathe
I can't think
I don't know what to say
It's a dirty game
This heartspeak
Just when I think I hear you
It all floats away
And the walls come tumbling down
Around me
Around
And the rain falls heavier now
Until the city drowns
And the sirens sound
And I thought that we would work it out
It's not so hard
Is it not just love?
Oh I've circled in and out of my mind
Let's go back in time
And make it right

Lover
Tell me where you've gone
I have wandered
And turned back to the storm
Lover
Tell me something more
Are you hungered?
Turn your dark eyes to the sun
Lover
Something to be said
Are you longing to die or to let live?
Let the earth hold my body
Let the water fill my lungs
I will hold you in my empty heart
And testify with song

Blue of Distance
by Lea Thomas and John Thayer
Lea Thomas is a wonder and this is one of my favorite folk albums maybe of all time - please take a listen
go to album
Yesol's album 'Plum, Parted' is a spectacular collection of songs that feels like an alternative lo-fi spiritual revelation.

This album probably doesn't need another share, but I'm so into it right now, so listen if you haven't. These three are legends in the making.
