Three Days 03:24
Three days in a summer window a dream that I crawled through but I'm not counting sheep when I in this dream with you I'm not counting sheep But I count the hours down While I'm catching you in your sleep Three nights floating off my feet with goose bumps on my skin breathing out the magic just to breath it in again I'm not counting sheep But I count the hours down While I'm catching you in your sleep She comes to me in my dream we walk so far together holding hands in stormy weather Flowers in spring Autumn leaves blowing in the wind In summer we cool off In winter we get hot Three mornings with coffee creme and food fit for a king it ain't so bad waking up here just to live the dream again I'm not counting sheep But I count the hours down While I'm catching you in your sleep She comes to me in my dream we walk so far together holding hands in stormy weather Flowers in spring Autumn leaves blowing in the wind In summer we cool off In winter we get hot

The wind blows in my face As you leave from this place Time again and time before All we shared is no more So I build a bridge to jump off To drown in the sea of fortune and loss What has gone that I had While you were next to me A sea change, a landslide I choked on reason as I swallowed my pride Like driftwood on the shore The ocean of blue will plot out my course So I build a bridge to jump off To drift in the sea of fortune and loss What has gone that I had While you were next to me

Belle 03:40
Her eyes held a light That I could see shining bright My eyes she had won Even walking towards the sun Oh she's Isabelle Well you dear, were a vision that would free a man's heart from prison and as we laid facing the sky to the clouds my dreams did fly To see Isabelle Her skin of golden brown her tongue of exotic sound her hair of jet black with thighs that I can't help but to look at Oh she's Isabelle But I fall down on the road to old Mexico town To see Isabelle

Someday Girl 03:26
Someday I'll find the one and she'll shine like the morning sun until she comes along I'll be waiting here all night long for her And if you don't mind someday girl I will An empty box is all I've got and of course it don't do a lot but I don't want it to do a thing 'cause all I want to do is sing for her And if you don't mind someday girl I will

Old oaks road, lord he ain't coming back down Old oaks road, lord that's his burying ground Small in years he was young in tears he was a boy lord he was just a boy Finding is way he had none to pay he was a boy lord he was just a boy Old oaks road, lord he ain't coming back down Old oaks road, lord that's his burying ground Old oaks road... On the old oak track that's where they stabbed his back he was a boy lord he was just a boy Well now he's dead and gone but his boys must go on they're boys lord they're just boys Old oaks road, lord he ain't coming back down Old oaks road, lord that's his burying ground Old oaks road

I awake to find my hands are tied And as I open up my eyes Lord, I'm not the only one Time, it keeps running away With thinking led astray Well, this battle must be won Its a fine fight on the cliffs of Mount Improbable Its a fine night on the top of Mount Improbable Not everybody wants to know Why we're here and where we go They close their eyes and they dream it so That everything will be okay Christ will come and save the day Before they go on holiday Its a fine fight on the cliffs of Mount Improbable Its a fine night on the top of Mount Improbable I awake to find my hands untied Now I've opened up my eyes Lord, I'm not the only one
