the heart is a lonely hunter swinging its tail around trading signals with another to find what can be found the heart is a lonely lover reaching out for the light get a taste for another and forget everything in sight alright deep in the heart of summer planting flowers on the hill in the place where we discovered the place we get our fill deep in the heart of summer sweet is life to me still but my heart is a lonely hunter standing on a lonely hill alright

speaking on the phone  i can hear the cars humming over the dial tone  more than i could know  its a quiet place where we can feel at home  so how do you feel today  does it matter anyway  you take the long way home  with your feet left to roam  is it better left alone  is it ever true  does the memory fade to something you cannot use  are we really blue  are we spinning in place  how does the shade look to you  so how do you feel today  does it matter anyway  you take the long way home  with your feet left to roam  is it better left alone  all the songs we haven't sung  all the lines are crossed and strung  you take the long way home  with your feet left to roam  is it better left alone

Tender 02:41
deep in the cold lake  you commandeer this empty freight  come back to me on a better day  when all this life has gone away  tender  do you remember  this meeting place is not ideal  i cut the line  you take the wheel  its so obscene what lovers make  when love is gone but you're still in place  tender  do you remember  this quiet tryst just feels so fake  the light is gone and turned away  i touch your hand and you touch mine  the stars are touching but out of line  tender  do you remember
4.
deep in the garden of flowers and wheat i pace thru several hours where minutes meet do you feel complete baby down in the parking lot i drag my feet spinning thru several hours sour and sweet do you feel complete baby
5.
Dearest Ben 04:01
dearest ben  you’re my only friend  and i like the way  that you hold my hand  dearest ben  how you take me in  and you hate the way  that i’m suffering  dearest ben  what a mess we’re in  and i’m lying out in the street again  dearest ben  i have given in  and i hate the ways we can never win  when i feel you standing near  your touch so warm and sweet  and the blues all fade to grey  and i can feel nothing  i can hear them say  quiet whispers everyday  how i let it go to waste  how i give myself away
6.
Maybe 04:06
maybe its not a place you should stay in everyday its so dated and so arcane if you hate it, make a change i’ll take the rain for you i’ll take the rain for you now baby, its not a waste if you get out in one piece and maybe its a phase but its not your job to wait i’ll take the rain for you i’ll take the rain for you now i’ll take the rain for you i’ll shift the plains for you now i’ll take the pain for you i’ll lose the game for you now
7.
Oh, Nothing 04:24
take a number babe, the line is long  just another grievance in a song  everyone is waiting at the door  all i want is just a little more  in the dark we said our prayers  in hushed voices to not wake the neighbors  oh my darling, my sweetest thing  oh, nothing  can keep the rain  take another babe, the night is long  just another drink to keep us up  and now we're screaming thru the door  hold on just a little more  in the dark we said our prayers  in hushed voices to not wake the neighbors  oh my darling, my sweetest thing  oh, nothing  can keep the rain
8.
Good Night 03:26
maybe someday we’ll be free to be all that we can be when the waves are crashing down its an empty kind of sound its okay to be alive because the stars are out tonight and the moonlight sings to me goodnight good night goodnight maybe someday it will stop the cruelest train we will get off and claim our ticket at the bay in some old, familiar way but its okay to be uptight i never can feel just right but the moonlight sings to me and the moonlight sings to me goodnight good night goodnight
