My Engine Is With You
what makes it go round the way we're up and down
we're minutiae staring at the whole sky
battle sense to keep you apprehensive
i guess no one is the same
we're all through different lenses
the bladder will filter all the pain
and the gut has sides you can't restrain
you are everything to me
you are cobalt elemental
a new lagoon five years down the line
and all i want is a lot of your time
these days when the clouds come in
heat broke no smoke without a fire
heat broke no smoke
[chorus]
infractions of the landscape
in a world we learn to escape
bad weather comes
but we have wood to burn
that which only gives
will always bring you through
my engine is with you
kilburn and california
make you wonder what it's all for
feed the lesson to the plate
twenty-one centuries
and I'm just starting to move
wreckless times like poison to the mood
daylight comes all too soon
accusations bruises to the head
planet waves to test your lead
you are everything to me
you are cobalt elemental
[chorus]
tie me in with electric line
bathe me in bacchanalian wine
if i with you to gold worlds of true moans
and eyes that see the same pool
if not the same water
if not the same water
if not the same water
you are everything to me
you are cobalt elemental
[chorus]

Great Fire
Great fire burning
You supplied the spark
Fores burning spreading through the ark
Animals are panicking
Im animal and panicking
Your glance a match on the tinderwood
You never spoke but I understood
Bring water
Eyes bring water
Chorus: great fire burning through
Great fire burning through my house
Great fire burning through my house and heart
Great fire burning
All because of you
Fires burning spreading through the zoo
Animals are panicking

No round of drinks can extinguish this
Feeling of love and engulfing bliss
Bring water
Eyes bring water

Ive been in love before
But its never been as hot as this
Smoke curling round the door
Memories of old loves crack and blister
Mister fireman bet you couldnt put me out if you tried
Your glance a match on the tinderwood
You never spoke but I understood
Bring water

4. Elements – Water
Water an elemental
Water a fundamental
Building block of life
Water of Life
Water of Death
Water in all religions
Water in all living things
Water in all countries
Water also used for barter
No life without water
No rife with water
No respect for water
Willful neglect of water
Water, for cooking
Water, for cleaning
Water, for drinking
Water, for living
Water, for dying
Water is the same
In all languages
Water is the same
To all living beings

Under a Cobalt Machine
Under a cobalt machine
I lie down and count your grace
Under the cobalt machine
I see myself a small microcosm
In your wide and deep universe.
Under a cobalt machine
I see how fragile life is
Much dependent on the rays
Of your mercy and grace.
Let me lie down here
Believing that the cobalt rays
Are your fingers that touch me.

Time After Time
Time after time
I guess that love is blind
I couldnt read your mind
Line after line
Line after line
It was written in your eyes
I guess its no surprise
Time after time
I can hear them whispering
Shadows in the rain
Thinking how it might have been
Chorus
Time after time
Line after line you broke me
Day after day
I watched love fade away
I wanted love to stay
Day after day
The games we played
The foolish things we say
The pain wont go away
Day after day
Candlelight is shimmering
Shadows on the wall
Thinking how it might have been
Day after day
The games we play you broke me
Candlelights are shimmering
Shadows on the wall
Thinking how it might have been

Mr. Pessimist
Time will swallow
Your precious time
Like magic create the future
What makes man so fickle ?
Who put the daggers in those eyes ?
Was it to learn
Through dark days of struggle ?
Was it to burn
To burst all our bubbles ?
Thunder and rain
Well the cynicle flame will it heat

King Of The World
Hello one and all
Was it you I used to know
Cant you hear me call
On this old ham radio
All I got to say
Im alive and feeling fine
If you come my way
You can share my poison wine
Chorus:
No marigolds in the promised land
Theres a hole in the ground
Where they used to grow
Any man left on the rio grande
Is the king of the world
As far as I know
I dont want your bread
I dont need your helping hand
I cant be no savage
I cant be no highwayman
Show me where you are
You and I will spend this day
Driving in my car
Through the ruins of santa fe
Chorus
Im reading last years papers
Although I dont know why
Assassins cons and rapers
Might as well die
If you come around
No more pain and no regrets
Watch the sun go brown
Smoking cobalt cigarettes
Theres no need to hide
Taking things the easy way
If I stay inside
I might live til saturday

Does It Really Happen?
Thats what you say
Does it really happen to you
Does that explain
This is the season for this display.
To take a look
In time to move together
Chorus:
Time is the measure before its begun
Slips away like running water
Live for the pleasure, live by the gun
Heritage for sun and daughter
Down to the slaughter up for the fun
Up for anything.
Could this be true
Does it ever happen to you
And can you prove
That wheels go round in reason
You take a step
In time,
To move together
Chorus
You walk, the way
You take, the path
To be, assured
You draw, a graph
The scale, you use
Is all, on black
Be brave, the weight
Will make, the heat
There is, no way
To take-it back.

Under A Cobalt Sky
Under a cobalt sky
That's where my lady lies
I never got the chance
To say goodbye
She really didn't mean
That much to me
I loved her once and then
I set her free
To see if she'd come
Running back to me
Under a cobalt sky
That's where my lady died
I never got the chance
To say goodbye
I really didn't mean
That much to her
She flew away
In that cold December
I wish I could have changed
The way things were
Under a cobalt sky
That's where my lady lies
I finally got the chance
To say goodbye
I heard the news
And fell down on my knees
I started to recall
Old memories
I never knew she meant
That much to me
Under a cobalt sky
That's where my lady lies
Under a cobalt sky
With me

You Don't Miss Your Water ('Til The Well Runs Dry)
As I sail with you across the finest oceans
On a way to find the key to our emotions
Together we will move the clouds to brighter days
Some people question what I say
Tried to break up you and me
But I know this love between us is growing stronger
You can call me whenever from wherever
Just remember that
I'll be there
Through all the stormy weather
Us break up never
No we'll be together
Forever
[Chorus:]
You don't miss your water 'til the well runs dry
But I believe so strongly in you and I
Can somebody answer me the question why
You don't miss your water til the well runs dry
As I close my eyes
Sit back while reminiscing
Of when we used to fuss and fight but end up kissing
There may be sad and pain for time so long to wait
But in my heart you'll always be everything and more to me
For I know this love between us is growing stronger
You can call me whenever from wherever
Just remember that
I'll be there
Through all the stormy weather
Us break up never
No we'll be together
Forever
[Chorus]
For you are always on my mind
You are always on my mind
Girl you know that you
You are always
You are always on my mind
You are always forever
[Chorus]
You don't miss your water girl no
But I believe so strongly in you and I yeah
Can somebody answer me the question why
Cause you don't miss your water 'til the well runs dry yeah listen
If you ever get the feeling
You wanna play around starting cheating

Cant Have Your Cake
When I was a young boy my mama would say
Son, you aint always gonna get your way
Times will be good, times will be bad
You aint always gonna get a winning hand
Son, she always said, you gotta stand tall
Even when it looks like youll take a fall
Life is short and sometimes sweet
Get out of the kitchen if you cant take the heat
(pre-chorus)
Everything she said was true
My mama never was a fool
Gotta live your life by the golden rule

I guess its true what they say
Really true what they say
I guess what mama said was true
Cant have your cake and eat it too, babe
I never doubted any word my

Scrape your fingers down my back, pin me to the ground
All along the water baby
Take me to your water baby
All along your water babe

When you come and turn it up, higher every time
If I stay , oh the end is near
Come and get me out of here, come and get me now

You were like a angel surrounded with sunshine
In the pool of the fountain
the sky reflect cobalt blue
and shadows fall over the inner court
and there are images sprouting up
whirling in my brain about you and me
in the pool of the fountain
and you were like a angel surrounded with sunshine
and dripping wet we embraced each other there
and shadows fall over the inner court
and even the wind blows with a chorus
and there are pure white lilies that I look at,
in the pool of the fountain
and the time with you was noble, was totally pure
or so everybody was thinking and we kept the countenance of it
and shadows fall over the inner court
drawing the two of us, line after line
and the sky is now reflecting dull blue
in the pool of the fountain
and shadows fall over the inner court.

You Be The Dam, I'll Be The Water
Seems as long as I've been knowing you
Something has bound us kept us as two
You for me and me for you tried and true
But what we need now is anchor and chain
I get the feelin' we're drifting away
Clouds collecting on horizon again
Oh o oh it looks like rain baby
Chorus:
You be the dam , I'll be the water
Hold back the tide
Just a little bit longer
We gotta make a stand
Gotta get stronger
Pullin' at you
Tuggin' at me baby
You be the dam, I'll be the water
Woke up floatin' like a dove on the gulf stream
Makin' love in the afternoon can ease any pain
We find the deepest part of our hearts
What good are we right now if we don't even try
Wrap it up pack it in say our sweet goodbye
Whatcha gonna do pretty baby when the well runs dry
Woh o oh we'll pray for rain baby
Chorus:
One heart beat at a time
After stormy weather
The sun's gonna shine
Gonna keep our lovin' alive
We can survive baby

You be the dam, I'll be the water
You be the dam, I'll be the water

He took me to--our favorite spot
A place we go to hang a lot
Something seemed to catch his eye
Oh--oo--oh over my shoulder
Oh--oo--oh over my shoulder

A pretty young thing sure enough
She was new--he wanted to

Lay Down Your Arms
We used to live in a better world
Where sky and water were free
We point the finger
We point the gun
Is that the way it should be?
We rape the land
And we tear the skin
Burn the blood in the stone
To fuel the fire of a selfish mind
Do you want to live here alone?
Lay down your arms - surrender
You know youll never get out of here
Lay down your arms - remember
No force - youd better lay down your gun
Such are the sins of humanity
Dark is the air that we breathe
A war to hide in society
Dont close your eyes to deceive
Too many promises
Too may tears
Where does the future lie
If we burn away the years
We can make this a better world
Where sky and water are free
So give the hand without the gun
Thats the way it will be

Water
[Verse 1]
Moving down the streams of my lifetime
Pulls the fascination in my sleeve
Cooling off the fire of my longing
Boiling off my cold within his heat
Melting down the walls of inhibition
Evaporating all of my fears
Baptizing me into complete submission
Dissolving my condition with his tears
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
[Verse 2]
Coursing through my senses, he's prevailing
Floating through the space of my design
Drowning me to find my inside sailing
Drinking in the mainstream of his mind
Filling up the cup of my emotions
Spilling over into all I do
If I only I could get lost in his ocean
Surviving on the thought of loving you
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water, the water
I ain't felt this way in years
[Verse 3]
Bathing in the fountain of his essence
He causes my expression to remain
Humbled on a mountain by his presence
Washing my intentions with his name
Sealing off the floodgates of his passions
Saving all his liquid for his own
Moisturizing me to satisfaction
In my imagination? No no!
He's pouring out his soul to me for hours and hours
Drawing out my nature with his hands
Yearning I'm so thirsty for his power
Burning to be worthy of his land
[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
