So Much

I found a tune in the basement
When I was still my mother's son
Now I'm trying hard not to waste it
Or get bought for a song
'Cause so much is riding on it now, and I can feel it...
They get you buying in a little bit
'Til you're tied up in blues
I'll shop around in my own heart, thank you
Makes it easier to choose
'Cause so much is riding on it now, and I can feel it...
I don't know why I want to stand my ground, or wanna make a sound
Much is still unclear, still it's all that I want my love
'Cause so much is riding on it, it's you and me now...

Mary won't you come out tonight?
There's a storm on the rise
And ask your father if we can come
Cause we need to talk
I'm sick of all the worry and waiting
The push and the pull and the false summits fading
I haven't given up on it yet, but I don't want you to quit
And I can see you hesitating...
Mary, won't you come along?
Remember when the summers lasted long?
And it seemed like the sun, it would never set?
Well don't you set the sun down on me now
Sure you trade your innocence for wisdom
And everything is different than it was before
It only makes me need you by me more
Mary won't you come along?
I guess the first thing that comes to mind
Late at night when I wonder what I've left inside
Is what to do if you just close the door
So please don't...
I see the trouble in your eyes
I hear the rumbling in your sighs
Cause there's no guarantees that it'll be alright
Just think of everything in store
But you don't wanna think about it anymore
Don't make that mistake cause I need you today...
Mary won't you come along?

Every Morning

It seems this weather just won't break
Whats more is I know what it takes,
to free myself from this cell
And every morning I confess,
the mirror leaves me unimpressed
It's still me. And it's a shame to see it at all
It's like my mind's some kind of slum
A single room and one light bulb
A jaundiced light
Yeah but I feel fine tonight
I should use some kind of excuse
I've used them all to the point of abuse
And it's getting lonely
And I need you only, tonight
I should act more like I'm a man
I do just the best I can
Still I ain't
What you'd call a saint
And every morning it's a shame I look the same
I confess
I confess
Every morning I confess, the mirror leaves me unimpresed...

On & On

No sense making up a story
I'm sitting here and feeling sorry
and my heart can't afford to be this broke
Those early mornings, on the front porch
through the screen she'd whisper to me
out of bed, the water is like glass
as far as I remember
there were more smiles than that
sometimes i feel you linger on and on
on and on and on you linger on...
tell me if if i come back
and i find you on the front steps waiting
coud we step into that river twice
as far as i remember
there was more good than bad
sometimes I feel you linger on and on
on and on and on you linger on...
Sometimes I think I shoulda been enough
but you said you never found the diamonds
only the rough...
On and on and on....

Well I'll ask you love, if you have had enough
If I could make some green, a home would suit you well
Spend your life with me
We'll have a family
And I'd lay myself down in your place to keep you well
Sunday blues will drag you through the dust
Happiness ain't seen the last of us
Morning came and wrestled me awake again
And I find the sheets pulled off the corners of the bed
And I know the score cause I been watching you work so hard.
Darlin whatever comes we'll get ahead.
God help me if I break your heart in two
Cause I never have deserved the likes of you
Even with the cupboards bare
It feels more like life with you here
Summer spreads the sunlight all across the porch
through the screen door to the piano across the floor
where all my scribbled lines and worries gather evenly
And when I take a breath
I couldn't ask for more
Even with the cupboards bare
It feels more like life with you here
