"Paper Crowns"
Roster McCabe
Wow, Neat Sounds!
(C) Roster McCabe 2012

Tear apart the shade and enter to a world you knew so well
You are welcome here to stay as long as you join in the fools parade

It’s a mask-less masquerade, cuz everyone here knows just who you are
You’re free to rearrange the stars, and lead us through the puzzle that you’ve made 

I am glad you came
Will you enjoy your stay

You feel like your imagination has you going down
But we wont know our destination til we’re off the ground
Going down

True as to the sun and all to wonder when the sun will rise
The prize is due, a crown, made out of paper tailored just for you

You have charmed us all
Will you return again?

You feel like your imagination has you going down
But we wont know our destination til we’re off the ground
Going down
With paper crowns

"Stargazer"
Roster McCabe
Wow, Neat Sounds!
(C) Roster McCabe 2012

Hey stargazer, hey stargazer
I wanna get right next to you
I feel you’re glowing
As we’re floating
I wanna get right next to you

Autumn falls without a warning
Brilliant colors change
I’ve always felt the same
Seasons travel round in circles
I’ll always match their motion back to you

When something’s pushed up
Against the night
It moves us forward
Thru space and time

Can’t take the pressure, I want release
When you start shining so soft to me
Transcending everything
We thought was impossible now

Hey stargazer, hey stargazer
I wanna get right next to you
I feel you’re glowing
As we’re floating
I wanna get right next to you

Days are growing colder faster
The sun leaves me too soon
Long for the warmth I knew
A wish on one star has me lost in space
I hope to find another golden light

Can’t take the pressure, I want release
When you start shining so soft to me
Transcending everything
We thought was impossible now

Hey stargazer, hey stargazer
I wanna get right next to you
I feel you’re glowing
As we’re floating
I wanna get right next to you

"9:23"
Roster McCabe
Wow, Neat Sounds!
(C) Roster McCabe 2012

Intricacy rising
In a fit, an axe to grind
Against the clock
I can leave it all behind 

9:23 again it
Never stops
Twice a revolution’s wearing

Thin again
It reads in red

Time is running out 
I cannot live without you
Do you remember flying high among the fading stars

Pins and needles break me
Tie me down
Ticking tock of a
Love I left behind

9:23 again
Please make it stop
Without your touch this game is wearing

Thin again
It reads in red

Time is running out
I cannot live without you 
Do you remember flying high among the fading stars

It’s here again, release me now!

Time is running out
I cannot live without you 
Do you remember flying high among the fading stars

"Rush the Tide"
Roster McCabe
Wow, Neat Sounds!
(C) Roster McCabe 2012

Crystal seas, clear as the sky
As I walk through Trenchtown
Holding up my peace sign
You’ll never make it to the top
So you better just enjoy the climb

Beautiful women dressed in white
No you can’t move the sea
And you can’t rush the tide
But you can do what you like, yeah

Hold it inside
Rainy day on the shores of Antigua
looking for a smooth ride
when you’re in Barbados, yeah

Rhythmic waves, each with a smile
As I walk the shore line
Holding up my good side
You gotta be there like a drop 
In the water and release the vibes

Caliente brisa de isla del mar
No you can’t shoot the moon
And you can’t hold the stars
But you can be who you are, yeah, yeah

I hold it inside
Rainy day on the shores of Antigua
looking for a smooth ride

"Eurydice"
Roster McCabe
Wow, Neat Sounds!
(C) Roster McCabe 2012

Pinks and a dragon haze glow
As we stroll
Ganymede & Callisto

Technicolor fading into view   
Your hand in mine
The stars align

I am calling your name
I am calling your name
I am calling your name
Eurydice

Floating through these stars with longing arms 
A signal sent 
To wake your heart

Patience, I burn to see you to bring you back 
To see your face 
In the light of the sun 

I am calling your name
I am calling your name
I am calling your name
Eurydice 

Light seeps from above
I turn to gaze upon your grace
You fade into the depths
Twice I lost you, twice I lost my love

I am calling your name
I am calling your name
I am calling your name
Eurydice
Eurydice
Eurydice
