A Ship in a Bottle
The wind let me down
But it lifted me up
The thought I would see you again
I’ve sailed out as far as I’m able this time
And I hope you don’t mind
That I’m seasick and soaking
My heart is chipped up
Like the cups in the cupboard
I’m sunburned and broken
No land to port to aft or to starboard
Anywhere, anytime
I’ll take what I can find
Looking for harbour tonight
The sheets ripped and I tripped
And I lost the radar and stripped out the throttle
The line slipped and we tipped
We’re going nowhere
Like a ship in a bottle
Now the stars I could read if
It weren’t’ for the cloud and the hurricane gale
Not much to do but head to the wind
and cling to the rail
I’m bone cold and shaking
Rattling like all the plates in the pantry
I’m storm chased and aching
The wind it is howling now
Just like a banshee

Hands & Faces
Chimes cry
Hours die
Time changes everything
Days pass
They can’t last
They never come again
Love is the only thing
Left at the end of this short life
So take these clocks and set them back
To the day when we first met
All I have left of this place is hands and faces
We grow
And we know
That we change
And that’s a fact
Love fades
We jade
On things that we can’t get back
Memory’s a funny thing
Runs on in ever dream we dream
So take these clocks and set them back
To the day when we first met
All I have left of this place is hands and faces
Times been ticking by you but I’ve been sticking by you
So take these clocks and set them back
To the day when we first met
All I have left of that place is hands and faces
