Ain't Love A Shame

steady now most days
but I’m losing ground at night
seems the light fades
with it goes my strength
I can’t stay
I came to say
I can’t stay
away
away
ain’t love a shame.
All we had was time
and we held on to each day
till the days began to fade
and the lights turned into grey
I can’t stay
I came to say
I can’t stay
away
away
ain’t love a shame
lover I tried
to leave you alone
but every road
leads home
couldn’t find the words to say
I just had to see your face
then I’m on my way
but baby
can I just stay
one more night
one more day
ain’t love a shame.

Carry me down to the waves a while
feel the deep water start to rise
and I am a child a child
whose wandering far from guarding eyes
above us only sky
below us open sea
and all I know for miles
are these mirrors of blue and you
and how I am free
Come as a bird
as an arrow smoke or flame
I am unchanged
your heart knows the way
Carry me away
to the place our dreams have made
oh the winds they howl
and the storm it breaks
but how will I know I’m lost
so deep in this escape
Come as a bird
as an arrow smoke or flame
I am unchanged
my dreaming heart is wide awake
In the motion we collide
but cannot stay
come dawn come day
we seperate
my love is homeless
It cannot hold us
It will not shelter us
or keep the wolves at bay
go keep your home
keep it safe.

tell my father he must run
find my mother hurry come
and see the sun set on the waves
and drown in flame
a sea of light and the stars tonight
call my sister for to bring
a gown of flower and words that sing
my feet are bare my joy is deep
my heart is wild under the stars tonight
oh my lover look upon the day
that our love has blessed and made
and open up your eyes wide
and let the light in
shadows are deep and dancing tonight
dear one come to me tonight
and lover bring your self entire
for nothing is certain in this life
but death be damned
I will love you for all time.

Wishing To Be Known

open up your heart show your face
let the sun rise and set upon your grace
every now and then, comes shining out like gold
all you are, everything you hold
like a truth you never told
and the weight you will carry to your grave
let it rain down
and it feels just like waking up
after a life of never good enough
it takes a lot to stay, not a lot to run
but where you gonna hide my love and what you hiding from?
if it’s yours to tell then tell it true
sing it loud, see it through
cause what we wish to save becomes our fate
and lights our way, leads us home
and it’s wishin to be known
and the weight you have carried all this way
let it rain down
life it breaks, sometimes grows
just as sure as the wind will blow
sea will change
snow comes burying the rain and all that came
and love i know, joys up and go
while in their place the hurt just settles in your bones
but in your face i see more strength than sorrow
open up your heart show your face
let the sun rise and set upon your grace
every now and then, comes shining out like gold
all you are, everything you hold
