Lyrics:

Lingering feeling sweet afternoon blues do you know what I'm missing bored with nothing to do 

Maybe if yesterday hadn't gone so fast I wouldn't be sitting here feeling so bad
 
Heavenly trace of last night's gloom I thought we were over I want us to be through

Why won'y you please set me free and leave me to forget this bittersweet memory and trace of regret

Yesterday's News

Lyrics:

Move with me now across the floor and say that you love me just once more put your arms around me and say that you're sure she doesn't mean nothing to you anymore

Just like an item is for sale and stone walls surround a prisoner's jail tell me I'm yours to keep and say that you'll stay until the book's complete 

Lean on me now but don't fall asleep lend me your hand and let me feel your heartbeat while you hold me in your arms and say that you're sure she doesn't mean nothing to you anymore

Just like an item is for sale and stone walls surround a prisoner's jail tell me I'm yours to keep and say that you'll stay until the book's complete

Item For Sale

Lyrics:

When I'm walking down the street smiling at everyone I meet I look down to my feet and remind myself of how life is sweet jah

Gotta let your hair down
and look to the sky when you're feeling low jah
gotta let your hair down
and don't worry too much about tomorrow

When I hum along some tune and I'm strolling down the avenue I look into my heart and remind myself of the things I've got jah 

Gotta let your hair down
and look to the sky when you're feeling low jah
gotta let your hair down
and don't worry too much about tomorrow

Let Your Hair Down

Lyrics:

On Sunday mornings when I find myself once again alone in bed on Sunday mornings I sometimes ask myself now and then the same question again

Why and why

The sun shines like gold in the horizon
and the lilies only bloom in spring
and a light can turn into a rainbow
when the show has to start always over again 

On Monday mornings when I find myself trying hard to get out of bed on Monday mornings I sometimes ask myself now and then the same question again

Why and why

The moon shines like gold in the horizon
and the daisies only bloom in spring
and a raindrop can turn into a rainbow
when the show has to start always over again

Sunday Mornings

Lyrics:

Let’s call him Bobby
that guy who sits in the lobby
always alone
trying to bum a smoke

No hang on that’s Joe
just try to ask him if he knows
some funny old joke
everyone use to know

No wait a minute that’s Jim
I think I know him
he’s that guy who rolls his eyes
each time the waitress pass him by 

No hang on that can’t be Scot?
I heard he once got shot
before he got stuck on the booze
although it never made the news 

No no that’s Hairy
I’m pretty sure he’s married
to that sweet and fine Stacy
who’s always been a little crazy

No that can’t be your friend
that can only be Ben
he’s a really cool dude
and funny too
if you catch him in a good mood

Let's Call Him

Lyrics:

Almighty is the man
who offers you his hand
in a world that's filled with hatred
in a pact that's sacred 

But what if justice is just taking less than you give
and you'll never find rest until you admit
there's no notoriety in any victory
for anyone who want's to live and not just exist

Worthy of praise be the sinner
who claims himself a winner
in the face of tyranny 

But what if justice is just taking less than you give
and you'll never find rest until you admit
there's no notoriety in any victory
for anyone who want's to live and not just exist

Live

Lyrics:

The breeze is blowing by me 
like a wild stream flows
and the flowers
are in bloom
I'm standing on the station 
with no good news
just wondering if you're

Still standing at the back of the station
daydreaming and waiting
for your dreams to find you at last
and the papertrain to come past
or if you turned your back at waiting
back at paperback station

The darkness that surrounds me
has now turned cold
and the train
is leaving soon
I've come back to station 
to look for you
just to see if you're

Still standing at the back of the station
daydreaming and waiting
for your dreams to find you at last
and the paper train to go past
or if you turned your back at waiting
back at paperback station

Paperback Station

Lyrics:

I don't really know what to say or do 
I'm still not even sure if I could love you
but the more time leaves me wanting you
the more I feel like I'm only dreaming

I don't really know how to say this to you 
but I don't know how else to tell you 
since the more I get to know you
the more I feel like I'm only dreaming

I don't really know how to lose these blues
so I guess I'll just leave it up to you
since the more time I spend looking deep into your eyes
the more I feel like
I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming

I'm Only Dreaming

God's Grace

Lyrics:

Can't you see I'm lonely sitting by this dock alone
Can't you see I'm only torn by every thread

This love wears a disguise
You can't hide
You can't hide don't lie
This love wears a disguise
You can't hide

Can't you see I'm withered by each year you tore away
Can't you see I'm splintered by each cut you lanced 

This love wears a disguise you can't hide you can't hide don't lie this love wears a disguise you can't hide 

Son yeux pleure comme la pluie jallissant du ciel et ses bisous a le goute d'un rêve insensé no mots ne pouvrent explique 

This love wears a disguise you can't hide you can't hide don't lie this love wears a disguise you can't hide

Love's Disguise

Lyrics: Where The Reeds Still Sway

Down by the docks/banks of oauio Bay
where the reeds still sway
and the trees stand tall
I carry my own step home

Down by the banks/tears of okauiu bay
where the river runs free
and the green canes
may still help me find a better way home

Where The Reeds Still Sway

Payaso Del Amor by @aprilandthedrift

Lyrics: 

Sí caes, ríes
Sí lloras, continuas 
Sí te ahogas, lo olvidas 
Sí mueres, aplaudes 

Pero sí llegas a ser sólo otro payaso del amor 
No importa el color 
Porque amor sigue siendo amor 
Como cada otro rumor y sabor 
Sí puedes llenarte con dolor 
Y si sientes que es abrumador 
En tu corazón 
Recuerda que aún sigue siendo 
Un buen dolor 
Porque es dolor 
Por amor 

Sí fallas, sigues 
Si duele, sanas 
Si odias, amas más 
Si estas ciego, ves 

Pero sí llegas a ser sólo otro payaso del amor 
No importa el color 
Porque amor sigue siendo amor 
Como cada otro rumor y sabor 
Sí puedes llenarte con dolor 
Y si sientes que es abrumador 
En tu corazón 
Recuerda que aún sigue siendo 
Un buen dolor 
Porque es dolor 
Por amor 
Así que antes de elijas ser solo otro payaso 
No olvides que el dolor 
Es la maldición y también la bendición 
Para todos aquellos que quieren llegar a ser 
Solo otro tonto payaso del amor

Payaso Del Amor

Lyrics:

I got up on a regular Tuesday
and as you do I began shaping up
I threw on a shirt and I looked at my watch 
struggling to care all that much

Time keeps on slipping it keeps on rolling on 

But since I had no time to waste
and I was already 10 minutes late
I splashed some water onto my face
and shook my head awake

Time keeps on slipping it keeps on rolling on

Time Keeps On Slipping

Lyrics:

Get on that train rolling on by
Now the whistle's blowing
And you got time

Get on that train rolling on by
Now the wheels
Are slowing down

Get on that train
Don't let it go you by

Get on that train rolling on by
Now the grass is green
And high

Get on that train
Don't let it go you by

Get On That Train

Lyrics:

I awoke to the sound of autumn rain
tapping on my window
I got up and put on my winter coat
pushing all else out of my mind

I don't know why I waited and I didn't stop by
and I don't know why I left without saying goodbye

while the sun rose above the rooftops
and the silhouettes began to fade
I looked up into the falling rain
only certain of how I'd been blind

I don't know why I waited and I didn't stop by
and I don't know why I left without saying goodbye

Autumn Rain

Lyrics:

Don't they know music is the heart of rasta
don't they know music is the heart of life
don't they know music is the heart faith
don't they know music is the heart hope

O-O-only music and music and music alone
O-O-only music can bring everyone home

don't they know music is the heart jah love
don't they know music is the heart him
don't they know music is the heart bliss
don't they know music is the heart soul

O-O-only music and music and music alone
O-O-only music can bring everyone home

Souls Of Music

Lyrics:

Early one morning about a quarter past five I left my home I didn't want to die 
mama sweet mama

In search of hope I walked for miles along the river's side
yes mama sweet mama 

Over by the pier a lad I didn't know said what are you doing here all alone
mama sweet mama

Mister I said I have travelled all day and I do believe I must have lost my way
mama yes mama

Don't worry dear I was once lost myself that's why pretty one I'd be more than glad to help
mama yes mama

But before I had a chance to reply he grabbed a hold of my throat and began to smile
mama sweet mama

Sir I told him please I cannot breathe but the devil just laughed and said salut ma douce chérie

Mama I love you mama sweet sweet mama
