The leaves that fall remind me Each leaf an empty day Like leaves we're destined to fall Like windblown clouds we fade Leaves from high fall Leaves get blown away The branches to the sky call Towards the sun they pray From earth to sky they rise tall To earth return one day Leaves from high fall Leaves get blown away Reach for the sky and rise tall Greet the dawning day Clouds so high bring rainfall To turn the earth to clay From gentle breeze to high squall From a blue sky to sudden rain Beyond each day comes nightfall To fall and rise again Leaves from high fall Leaves get blown away

Wait For Me 04:55
There was a time I didn't hope I was surrounded by a perfect glow The canopy against the blue Grass beneath my feet, green and new Longing to Touch the Dream Can't get through Wait for me Sometimes in dreams I live those days Sit by the lake, sun on my face Then I'm awake and here once more Among dead trees on an empty shore Longing to Touch the Dream Can't get through Wait for me These hopes won't save me Far from safety When all I have is hope I cannot grasp the rainbow Inside outside a broken land The hopes all crumble in my hand Longing to Touch the Dream Can't get through Wait for me

Between the changing moons, the waiting Higher than the clouds, time flows In the twilight, thoughts reverberating From roots far below, it grows Oh Selene, please wake me This is your sky, through the ages The earth beneath our feet, only knows The changing of the moon, time rotating Calling from the void, unknown Oh Selene, please wake me Across the sky, ever changing Chariot drawn by, white horse And from his sleep, not waking To keep his dreams, all yours Oh Selene, please wake me

From a place between the rocks An empty land cut across Growing child of a stream Many veined great artery From the south, you carve east Here I wait and drop my wreath On these shores The circle closed On these shores I stand alone Ever talking silent voice Keeper of secrets the untold see Upon this shore I cast my token And contemplate words unspoken From the south, you carve east Here I wait and drop my wreath On these shores The circle closed On these shores I stand alone Many memories held aloft Blood to blood the bleeding stops Drift away like fallen leaf Upon this shore I am at peace On these shores The circle closed On these shores I stand alone

The sparks between our fingers Fire that will consume Intensity of light so bright In the eye of the storm Consume me with your fire Blinded and bruised Scarred and burned all over The injuries I choose Take me with you to the edge (Blind me with your light) Joined in our destructive flight (We'll burn across the sky) This heat's not forever I'll burn, even for one night This heat's not forever I'll climb mountains of light The flames become entwined Walls will fall to dust The pleasure pain so intense There is only us This destructive storm we raise Twisting all around In the eye we're not safe So far above the ground Take me with you to the edge (Blind me with your light) Joined in our destructive flight (We'll burn across the sky) This heat's not forever I'll burn, even for one night This heat's not forever I'll climb mountains of light

Don't Let Go 03:57
It feels frustrating I have to know As light is fading And darkness grows That time I walked away I wanted to stay I'd give it all to know Did I have to go? Don't let go Tears will fall Don't let go And lose it all Time was moving on The hour was late Goodbye I have to go The words I said As I walked away I wanted to say I'll give up it all Ask me to stay Don't let go Tears will fall Don't let go And lose it all Should I take a chance? Leap off and pray? As time and distance grow I know it's too late Don't let go Tears will fall Don't let go And lose it all Should I take a chance? Leap off and pray?
