This evening, it's grand
It's miraculous but sad, 'cause
I can't get there from here
And the shuttle that you ride
I could have sworn it just went by, I think I'll
Have another beer
But I won't cry about you baby
And I won't howl at the moon
But I might just stay awake, watch it
Sink into the lake, and maybe
Wish that you were here

You Call Yourself Sunshine
Refrain:
You call yourself sunshine, and maybe it’s true. Well
I don’t know how to love sunshine, but I could love you.
The trouble with sunshine;
It’s hard just to see,
And I don’t know how long I’ll be waiting
For you to love me.
The summer is waning,
A chill’s in the air;
I’ve had so much sunshine I tell you: I don’t even care.
I’ll take the cool mornings,
The long autumn a nights,
The stars and the moon in the heavens: my favorite sights.
R
I was born in the winter,
The sun far away.
The snow coming down and the cold are just
Parts of my day.
I walk towards springtime
When you are returning,
My fire in the moonlight, my heart
And I keep it burning
R

Monsters

Dracula is waiting by my window
Frankenstein is knocking at my door
I never thought I’d wander through my life this way
But monsters always leave you wanting more
I’m riding on the train from New York City
The full moon like a plague is beaming down
The people here, they keep their faces covered
And walk off to their lonesome little towns
And me, I’m contemplating how we parted
The city streets adorned with autumn’s glow
The warmth I feel is burning from the inside
A love which simply has no place go
Refrain
My town is the last one where the train goes
I’m coming to the end of the line
Perhaps I am the only one who lives here
The last man walking in the full moon’s shine
The trolls come out from shadows now to watch me
As angels scurry past without a sound
And I will reach my home, no one to stop me
And wait until the demons come around
And all of this is true, because
I fell in love with you
And true love always leaves you wanting more
Refrain

Not The Time

I’d like to take you where the river turns the bend,
Where we could sit and look for signs
Of all the souls we lost who found there way downstream
But maybe now is not the time.
I’ve seen the stars at night just bouncing off the lake,
And seen the trout jump towards the sky.
I didn’t know you then but sure do love you now,
But I guess now is not the time.
I confess, I never found a way,
To show you all the places that my time goes,
My time goes…
There comes a time when love might change the way you see it;
For something real you cross the line.
You give the one you love a chance to be a part of you:
I guess that now is not that time.

For You

I'd like to know you better than I do
I'd like to hold you, but who am I to you?
A man in his place, with love on his face
But nothing can help you decide
If yo'd like to be by my side.
Everything comes to those moments in time
Where I find the grace to be out of my mind
To see in one person the joy that I hide
And I'll never know till I've tried
If you could be here by my side
So now I must wait
And look for my fate
And watch you come in and go out
But I'd like to know you better than I do
So I will just be here for you

Waiting for You
I’ve been shown the door
I’ve been down on the floor
Thought I’d never figure out
How to shake that doubt
But I had a revelation
Or at least a deviation
From the way I behaved
And though I haven’t been saved
I think I found some jubilation in my heart
R:
Cause I was waiting for you
Though I didn’t know who
Till you sat down and told me your name
I was waiting for you
Now I’m gonna make it through
And I’m never gonna be the same
Yes I’m never gonna be the same
I make my own place
Give my chidden their space
Try to learn how to live
Taking less than I give
We all reach for our desires
Make it better, take it higher
But you’re bound to get tired
When you walk down that wire
And you wonder if you’ll ever reach the other side.
R:
So I’m waiting for you
And I’m hoping its true
And I’m making this picture in my mind
Yes I’m waiting for you
As you come into view
Though I know you can’t be sure of what you’ll find
Yes I I know you can’t be sure of what you’ll find
B:
There is no solution
Just a gradual evolution
So I won’t ask for more
I’ll just open the door
R:
And keep waiting for you
Even though I know who
I can hardly remember when you came
I’ll keep waiting for you
With my whole world anew
And I’m never gonna be the same
Yes I’m never gonna be the same
