Colors 02:48
Walking round that corner What do I see? Pretty thing with sunglasses Lookin' at me Got a premonition She's gonna be mine I'm gonna love her yeah Till the end of time Some say my life is dreary but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors Some say my life is dreary but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors Junkie wearing my clothes I think I’m going blind I went up to tell him I think those are mine Well he spoke to me in sonnets It was one that I read About the sunrise baby I kept it in my head Some say my life is dreary but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors Some say my life is dreary but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors Some say my life is dreary but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors Some say my life is easy but I am Dreaming in colors Not one to retreat but I am Dreaming in colors

Dream of You 03:30
I lost your scent in the rain Your arms they release me You told me love ain't no game You said it ain't easy I told you I felt insane When I feel your arms relapse My love I found you now relax I counted on me to be that Car chase in a midnight cave and I know you know you shouldn't look You can't see me oh hey you can’t see me oh hey oh hey She said love ain't no game She said don't be tame I will love you I will love you I will love you Cause I dream of you Cause I dream of you Cause I dream of you Cause I dream of you Carving my fantasy Don't tell me what I can be Just let me grow you'll see The light he soon will show me It begins with me It begins with seas Some say we author our dreams I dream of you darling Some say we author our dreams I dream of you darling Some say we author our dreams I dream of you darling Some say we author our dreams I dream of you darling Some say we author our dreams I dream of you

Her name was Emerald She was a pedal to my heart sometimes I knew her once, I knew her twice, so it was said to me Her name was Saphire She took her pictures, took her laughs, Took it all now It cant get back Her name was Ruby She barely knew me barely coo'd me, Lovers mixed with laughter truly I wonder if she's in debt to me I asked her if she would sue or use magic at all And your lifetime is up and you can't get it back And you're dying and old then you're off the map And you can't stand up And I cant sit down And you're going around With some android hounds Look at the sky It's so beautiful today I sat and watched the waves go by I sat and watched an ocean of eyes Your eyes My eyes Some days I cant be sly My eyes Your thighs Sometimes you cant rely Somedays lofty Drinking coffee Get these silly things off me Morning taffy Always happy Please be tinsel tongue tacky Somedays lofty Drinking coffee Get these silly things off me Morning taffy Always happy Please be tinsel tough tacky Look at the sky Its so beautiful today I sat and watched the waves go by I sat and watched an ocean of eyes Look at the sky Its so beautiful today I sat and watched the waves go by I sat and watched an ocean of eyes

AC Parade 01:38
I've always been good at true love But i guess you already knew that So I wake up mourning for your Love's another day, that's sojourn Another way to go Another way to go Another face to show The pain inside my frame Back when I met ya You knew I was kin You knew I was dumb You knew I was Ren I'm willing to bet ya I'll try not to forget ya And the sky it takes a hold on me like a melody In twice-fold harmony with your soul in me and your soul and mine And we can't rely so we will say bye And we can't rewind but we'll make it back To those heart attacks, that we put on wax In the hospital I saw your face

Opium Beach 01:12
Ex-cheerleaders cheer at opium beach The sand is white, yes there's coke at your feet Atoms shake on the floor beneath Nothing’s concrete not even concrete Opium beach, where the old souls roam Celluloid self and cellular phones The old basket Red Riding Hood took home No one is home Forever seek peace Forever marquess My may flower weeps When April wears cleats Forever seek peace Forever marquess My may flower weeps When April wears cleats I'm one with nature but I would never date her Curb her, serve her, one day you'll deserve her Stems in the ground reach Far beneath the mountain peak Wind echoes at my side Universal alibi

Jane's Jam 03:44
I, took a bite of jane’s jam Straight out from the jar, god damn Sitting there all comfy, oh man jane's jam jane's jam jane's jam jane's jam I, took a bite of jane’s jam Sat spinning, looking at the fan Lying there so comfy, oh man I thought you knew I thought you knew I, took a bite of jane’s jam Started getting weird and I can’t Wait to get up out of this land I thought you knew I thought you knew I, took a bite of jane’s jam Found a purple ocean and swam Found a rock all soggy and damp I thought you knew I thought you knew I, took a bite of jane’s jam Saw her waiting for me oh man Looked at me and took my hand I thought you knew I thought you knew I, took a bite of jane’s jam Looked up at the stars, found land Sinking into the ocean of jam I thought you knew I thought you knew I, took a bite of jane’s jam Sank there due to her command Looked at me and released my hand I thought you knew I thought you knew I Sat To watch The sky I Tried To say Goodbye I, couldn’t see jane’s hand Sank in the purple ocean of jam Lost myself in a wet kind of land I thought you knew I thought you knew I, want to be who I am Even if alone I do stand Just to see the sunrise, oh man I thought you knew I thought you knew I Tried To say Goodbye I Sat To watch The sky But I, But I But I, But I

Night Gown 04:36
The Universe looks pretty in a nightgown The Universe looks pretty in a nightgown Don't frown Don't frown Just look around Just look around look around look around Your eyes, they climb and split like a valley Sitting in alley, thinking of you Thinking of you A hotel room, in the bathroom. I walk out The melody intertwines with my mind With my mind with my mind Sanskrit lamps Going down a type of trance A time of day A night away An owl’s flying A bird in flight A forgotten night The universe she looks so pretty in her nightgown The universe, the universe looks so pretty in a nightgown Don't you frown Look around The universe looks pretty in a nightgown The universe looks pretty in a nightgown Look around (Yay!)

Tea Again 03:14
I love you dear So just kiss my ear With your pretty voice You made that pretty choice Tea Again With me again It’s easy to dream of you Seems again It's me again Who's fallen in love with you Tea on the counter Looking for some honey She waited to come down Tea on the counter Looking for some honey She's kinda funny Tea again A poet's name I dream of white and you I have visions of your infinite smile I haven't felt that way in a while So baby come dig my style So baby baby come dig my style style style You're running out of time You're running out of time So just come thru and see through and knock on my window I'll hold you and feel you and love you and heal you And love you and love you and love you and love you and love
