Chartreuse

you've got some thinking to do / will you stay or go / your bucket of wishes / is starting to overflow / your dreams stand tall / flash like a neon sign / the choices of today / hang on a fragile line
see, I have it too / sometimes yellow / sometimes blue
I know how the open road / may seem paved with fear / but honey those pretty comforts of yours / are the monsters here / your eyes look north / while your heart heads south / you've walked this terrain before / chasing the shadows around
see, I have it too / sometimes yellow / sometimes blue
there's a golden noose that hangs from a diamond sky / I know it all a little too well / golden noose that hangs from a diamond sky / I know you know it too / but what are we to do / see how it shimmers
see, I have it too / sometimes yellow / sometimes blue
but it makes a lovely bouquet / handed picked so delicately / and mixed up like chartreuse / yeah it makes a lovely bouquet / hand picked so delicately and mixed up like chartreuse

Two Troubadours

Did you see the stars last night / she asked me when I finally woke up / let's go chase the sun today / far away from all the darkness here / far away
the wind allures us / the ocean sounds like a chorus / it sings for two troubadours
there won't be another day like this / there won't be another day like this / no no no no / not like this / no no no no / not quite like this
so we lay in the rays of a brilliant sun / watching birds glide by / my dress is faded and my hair is undone / we're unraveling the lies
there won't be another day like this / there won't be another day like this / no, no, no, no / not like this / no no no no / not quite like this
there won't be another day like this / there won't be another day like this / no, no, no, no / not like this / no no no no / not quite like this
and I don't know why / oh why

To The Sea

I leave to the sea my worries once more / I leave to the sea / I leave to the sea my worries once more
I go to her in the morning / rain or shine / she seems to love and adore me / this wondrous blue divine / oh she is good to me
when harmony seems far away / the rise and the fall of the tides / leaves me to feel I'm sinking / she throws a hook and line / oh she is good to me
to the sea / to the sea / oh she is good to me / she is good to me
she takes my tears / old salty / I wonder where do they go / I will always follow her / from Bali to Mexico / oh she is good to me
when harmony feels far away / the rise and the fall of the tides / leaves me to feel I'm sinking / she throws a hook and line / oh she is good to me
to the sea / to the sea / oh she is good to me / she is good to me

Ramblin' Rose

she's a ramblin' rose / with so much more to go /traveled down highs and lows / to find a place called home / she's done living lies / lies with fake smiles / oh the ramblin' rose / on such a lonely road / she's a ramblin' rose / with so much more to go / carries bags a heavy load / and wearing a dress of calico / she's breaking out alive / undoing all those ties / oh the ramblin' rose on such a lonely road
but her pulse beats like a high noon sun / and her hope is a fiery one / 'cause you know maybe those cards add up to 21 / only a ramblin' rose knows in the long run / only a ramblin' rose knows
she's a ramblin' rose with so much more to let go / fisted hands slowly unfold as her heart takes hold / wild dreams calm her inner screams / when she grows weary and tired / oh ramblin' rose will you ever leave the road
but her pulse beats like a high noon sun / and her hope is a fiery one / 'cause you know maybe those cards add up to 21 / only a ramblin' rose knows in the long run / only a ramblin' rose knows
Oo oh, ramblin' rose / finding her way home / there she goes / finding her way home / oh there she goes / finding her own way / finding her own way
