This Dish

This dish has been brewin’ & stewin’
Stewin’ & brewin’ for oh so long …mmmmm
Concentrated juices, they smell so fine
It’s a rich feast of freedom
Served sublime, oh so sublime
Not quite done yet
There’s so much to do
Before we all get consumed
CHORUS
You’re going drink my wine
While I sip on this fantasy of mine
You know you’re gonna eat from my vine
So baby please indulge me
A little of this and a little of that
Casting voodoo charms on your path
Drive the Devil to a higher ground
Ya that’s the way to go
Sweet little love potion we can’t deny
It’ll cure what ails us if we just give it a try
Sip it down, nice & slow
Seems as though a spell has been c
Cast upon us
Asking for mercy won’t help none,
No, no, no, no no we’re done
CHORUS
+ Indulge, indulge, indulge me

Lucid Eyes

Back on the water again
I’m tryin’ not to sink
But in a blink, we're down
Strugglin’ to find my way
I decide this is what I must pay
To put out the fire burnin’ inside
And I wonder what has led me here
Then I realize you’re carrying
A whole lot of gear
So I either sink
Or kick my way out of this mess
The choice is clear
CHORUS
So I’m going to let you go
And find my ride with lucid eyes
So let me rise, oh let me rise
With lucid eyes
You’ve built a wall,
Oh so tall
I can only climb so high
So cut away your mask
All I want to do is bask
In the light of your soul
Yet trials & tribulations
Of miscommunication
Have brought us here
So we either sink
Or kick our way out of this mess
The choice is clear
CHORUS
SOLOS

Lucky Charm
03:54
|
|||
|
Here we are
Stuck in the middle of chaos
Witnessing a world gone mad
How do you make sense of nonsense?
I don't know if it can be done
CHORUS
So where are you going Lucky Charm?
I'll ride this wave in your arms
Here and now we'll find our way
Through this pain to glide upon
The magic carpet
We'll ride the magic carpet high in the sky
So you think you have the answers
I'll tell you what I know
We have to listen up people
Compassionate support for our most vulnerable
And zero tolerance for hard drugs,guns and war
CHORUS
SOLOS
Here we are stuck in the middle of...
Chaos, chaos, chaos...

Decide
03:41
|

|
What do you want from me?
What do you need?
What do you want from me?
Oh what do you need?
So c'mon over and tell me what's on your mind
I'll be asking you if you take too much time
What do you want to see?
Who do you want to be ya?
What do you want to see?
Who do you want to be?
Cuz it's up to you
To decide what is best
You can take it or leave it
Oh that is the test
SOLOS

Catchin' Up
04:44
|
|||
|
Hello my love, I’ve come from afar
To see you perform in a bar
You light up my day, the way you swoon and sway
Singing your heart out
Now I’ve come to the second verse
If I say too much you may think of me as perverse
But then again I’m pretty sure we see eye to eye
So I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up
(I’ll tell you why in a moment)
Ya I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up
We knew each other long, long ago
Another lifetime, you’re rooted in my soul
Dreaming , dreaming the night away
We tended our herd ya I know it sounds absurd
Built a house out of rock and sod
Had a few babies, ya they loved to ride wild
Just like you and I do now
So I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up
Ya I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up
Now I’m lying here wide awake
Present day consumes my pay
Everything’s complicated
Oh so over-rated
I want to return to a time of simple pleasure
Making music together on the bay
Watching the tide roll in and roll away
So I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up
Ya I think we need to buy some time catchin’ up x3

Bless Bless

She looks around and wonders where he’s gone
A dusty trail left behind
So she stumbles along, grabs a cab
Hopes grace under pressure forms in her Lab
Cuz the chemistry of complex circumstance
Is veiled in gossamer
The sun has set and a new moon is met
Traveling light and solo
CHORUS
Bless bless oh baby
Quicksilver knows you are a red rose
Bless bless oh sugar baby
We’ll see you on another plane
Where we shall surely meet again…
So a sweet, little bird shared a song
Now she doesn’t feel so alone
Grace returned and a potion emerged
One to behold
Now they await on a rolling hill
Holding hands and standing still
The water is calm but not for long
Their dream moving with ebb & flow
CHORUS
SOLOS
CHORUS
One day they will emerge
Fulfilled with love & courage
So for now this story has no ending

Casting Hopes
04:23
|
|||
|
You can’t love me
But you won’t leave me
At least not now so we’ll dance our silent vow
You always find my way
Now I’m dreaming what you say
Casting hopes only leads to upward slopes
Your eyes lock with mine
Now I’m wondering when we’ll dine
It’s been a long, long time
CHORUS
I’m patient my dear
So I’ll be waiting near
Skating on thin ice, rolling the dice
Looking for something
To keep me warm
Through this storm
SOLOS
You dare to jest
But you know I know what’s best
True love I’ll be your sweet dove
You see we’ve sailed
Together mighty ships
So now we must learn from the chorus of our lips
CHORUS

In the Moment
03:53
|
|||
|
It came to me, in the moment
I don’t know how or why
It’s bold as love
Not afraid to live, get down & funky
I think I found it you
Though maybe baby, you called for me
When love comes
will I be ready for you?
Cuz you’re a midnight rambler
In the deep, dark night
I’ll walk on water, swim against the tide
To breathe in your sweet light
I could groove on with you forever
Feedin’ my soul ‘til dawn
Swimming in a pool of fire
Tryin’ to figure out why
I’m not gettin’ burned?
Oh we'll never know
When love comes
Will you be ready for me?
Cuz I’m a tight rope dancer
Juggling in the sky
While making love pie
Passion only burns when unrealized
So live your love & do no harm
Soar where the stars illuminate your way
When love comes
Will we ever be ready?
I don’t know baby
So let’s try it on
SOLOS
When love comes
Will we ever be ready?
I don’t know baby
So let’s get it on
It came to me, in the moment
I don’t know how or why

Come Along
05:29
|
|||
|
A silver stream lights my way
Ya she’s high in the sky tonight
Pulling tides to where we began
It is here I’ll uncover you
Buried deep in the sand
I’ll wash away the grit
And promise to let you
Drink from my cup
CHORUS
I’m going to find you, somewhere, somehow
Oh trust me babe, I want to take you home
Oh back home
Only if you want to begin again
Let us rise from our ashes
Oh come along for a ride with me
Do you ever wonder why
The road is so twisted?
Perhaps it is not at all
But just our perception
Sometimes we don’t know
Where to go or where to turn
That’s OK, our job now
Is to move in time
CHORUS
Now the sun is rising
Casting light on our path
A bottle washes upon the shore
Now you see what’s inside
I’ve held onto this gem
For way too long
Now I’m ready to set it free
I’ll trust whatever you believe
I just had to let you know
Oh I just had to let it go, let you go
If you want to begin again
Let us rise from our ashes
Oh come along for a ride with me

House of Cards
05:30
|
|||
|
They claim to have a magic bag
Ya they may have a magic bag
With the promise of a few snags
Cuz they only tell ya
What they want you to hear
Feeding your ears with their fears
So leave your mind behind
Just leave your mind behind
They hope you’ll follow along blind
Where they go, no one knows
Where they go, no one knows
No one knows where they go
CHORUS
But I’m a little vixen
Anticipating action
In search of satisfaction
Seems we need a revolution
Cuz this house of cards
Has lost its guards
Oh it’ fallin’ fast
Jaded by the shade
Ya I’m jaded by the shade
of this raid upon our lives
My mojo’s been sacked
Oh my mojo’s been sacked
By a stab in the back
So I’m heading straight on home
Ya I’m heading straight on home
Heading straight on home to Mama
Cuz Mama knows best
Cuz Mama knows best
Ya Mama, she’ll set the course
CHORUS
We expect the best
We expect the best
But we’re denied, disappointed
If we dare
If the flavor is right
I could go all night
With a plan of what to do,
when & why
But are you ready Jack?
Are you ready to listen?
Oh I’m not so sure about that!
So my voice is all alone,
Ya my voice feels all alone
So come on by, let’s chill & formulate
CHORUS x 2
Gonna bring it straight on back
Gonna bring it straight on back
Bring it straight on back
To where we began
