BENEATH THE GREENLESS GARDEN
FAREWELL MY DEAR FRIEND
I KNOW IT'S HARD TO SAY GOODBYE
I FELT YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE
I HELD IT ONE LAST TIME
YOU KISSED THE LAST RED ROSE
AND YOU FINALLY LET IT FALL
AND NOW YOU'RE LEFT TO WANDER
ALL THESE EMPTY YEARS
AND I'M SORRY FOR YOUR SADNESS
AND THE FLOWERS THAT YOU LEFT
AND THE EARTH AND GREENLESS GARDEN
THEY'VE BROKEN DOWN AND WEPT
FAREWELL MY DEAR LOVE
I KNOW IT'S HARD TO SAY GOODBYE
I'VE TOUCHED YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE
AND I'VE HELD IT ONE LAST TIME
YOU KISSED THE LAST RED ROSE
AND YOU FINALLY LET IT FALL
AND NOW YOU'RE LEFT TO WANDER
ALL THESE EMPTY YEARS
AND I'M SORRY FOR YOUR SADNESS
AND THE FLOWERS THAT YOU LEFT
AND THE EARTH AND GREENLESS GARDEN
THEY'VE BROKEN DOWN AND WEPT
AND I'VE WAITED SO LONG
JUST TO SAY MY GOODBYE
AND I'VE WAITED SO LONG
JUST TO SAY MY GOODBYE
GOODBYE
GOODBYE
GOODBYE
GOODBYE
GOODBYE
GOODBYE...

A HUNDRED YEARS OF MEMORY
IN A FLASH MY EYES HAD SEEN THE DAIRY QUEEN
TO THE CLOUDS ABOVE I TOLD OF BROKEN DREAMS
YELLOW TRACTOR ROLLING PASSED THE SUN LIGHT
IN A FLASH I KISSED THE SHANENDOAH SEA
WHERE THE MERMAID GAVE HER SILVER COIN TO ME
LITTLE BAMBI ROLLING PASSED THE SUN LIGHT
AND I CHOSE THE ROAD JUST TO TRY IT ON FOR SIZE
WINDOW TRAVELER KNOWS ONLY HELLOS AND GOODBYES
AND I SORTED OUT THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW VIEW
AND I SORTED OUT THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW VIEW
IN A FLASH I FELT THE EARTH COLLIDE WITH ME
AS I REACHED THE STARS THEY WASHED THE DARKNESS CLEAN
LIFELESS SHADOWS ROLLING PASSED THE MOON LIGHT
IN A FLASH I PLACED MY LOVE INTO YOUR HANDS
CRUSHING HOURS OF YOUR GLASS BENEATH THE SAND
TINY PIECES REFLECTING WITH THE MOON LIGHT
AND I CHOSE THE ROAD JUST TO TRY IT ON FOR SIZE
WINDOW TRAVELER KNOWS ONLY HELLOS AND GOODBYES
AND I SORTED OUT THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW VIEW
AND I SORTED OUT THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW VIEW
FOGGY PEOPLE I THOUGHT I KNEW
MOUNTAIN RANGES SPEEDING THROUGH
SLOWLY FADING WITH THE SUN LIGHT
IN A FLASH A HUNDRED YEARS OF MEMORY
AS I REACHED THE STARS THEY WASHED THE DARKNESS CLEAN
AS I REACHED THE STARS
THEY WASHED
THE DARKNESS CLEAN...

MANGO TREE
I SAT UNDER A MANGO TREE
AND ALL I SAW WAS GREEN
FIELDS OF JASMINE AT MY FEET
SPANISH MOUNTAIN COUNTRY SCENE
AND I HEARD THE ECHO AT THE DOOR
AS I WALKED THESE COBBLE STONES
THERE'S A CHURCH THAT STANDS LIKE A TOWER
AND A CLOCK THAT TELLS THE HOUR OF MY DREAM
AND ALL THOSE PEOPLE CAME TO
PRAY
PRAY
PRAY
THEY CAME TO PRAY
MAYBE I'M HERE IN ROME
OR SAILING OUT TO GREECE
AND I SPOKE FRENCH TO AN AMERICAN
I GOT LOST ON THOSE PARIS STREETS
AND I HEARD THE ECHO AT THE DOOR
AS I WALKED THESE COBBLE STONES
THERE'S A CHURCH THAT STANDS LIKE A TOWER
AND A CLOCK THAT TELLS THE HOUR OF MY DREAM
AND ALL THOSE PEOPLE CAME TO
PRAY
PRAY
PRAY
THEY CAME TO PRAY
AND I WONDER IF I DIDN'T GO ANYWHERE
WOULD I STILL BE OKAY
AND I SAT UNDER A MANGO TREE
AND EVERYTHING WAS GREEN
WELL MAYBE I THINK THAT I'LL
STAY
STAY
STAY
I THINK I'LL STAY...

IT'S TWO O'CLOCK A CUP OF COFFEE
AFTER THESE OLD EYES
THE SUN DIDN'T DAWN ON ME
JUST QUITE YET
THE MIRROR LEFT MY SMILE ON
THE BACK OF A COLGATE SQUEEZE
DRAGON PULLED ME BY
MY ROLLED UP FLANNEL SLEEVES
TO A SWOLLEN RIVER...RISE
ANGEL SINGS THE BLUES TO THE SKIES
IN THE HOPES OF CHASING HIS DEMONS AWAY
AND EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS
WHILE LONELY CHASING THEIR HEAVENS AWAY
BREATH IN ME BREATH IN ME
A NEW LIFE
BREATH IN ME BREATH IN ME
A NEW LIFE
SCENTED PINK PETALS BREEZIN'
OVER TREE LINED STREETS
WEATHERED SILK
SNOWY SPRING JUST DOESN'T MELT
SANDY PAPER CHIN
GROWS ON THE SIDE OF HIS TEARS
RAZOR LOST ALONG
WITH THE SIDE OF HIS YEARS
TO A SWOLLEN RIVER...RISE
ANGEL SINGS THE BLUES TO THE SKIES
IN THE HOPES OF CHASING HIS DEMONS AWAY
AND EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS
WHILE LONELY CHASING THEIR HEAVENS AWAY
BREATH IN ME BREATH IN ME
A NEW LIFE
BREATH IN ME BREATHE IN ME A NEW LIFE
AND I'LL RUN FAR PASSED
THE BLACK SEAS
OVER THREE THOUSAND MILES
JUST TO BE ME
TO A SWOLLEN RIVER...RISE
ANGEL SINGS THE BLUES TO THE SKIES
IN THE HOPES OF CHASING HIS DEMONS AWAY
AND EVERYONE IS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS
WHILE LONELY CHASING THEIR HEAVENS AWAY
BREATH IN ME BREATHE IN ME
A NEW LIFE
BREATHE IN ME BREATHE IN ME
A NEW LIFE
A NEW LIFE...

STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS
SLIPPERY SLOPE AND YOU GRIP AND YOU GROPE
AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE TO HOLD ON
YOUR SHOES ARE UNTIED WHERE THE GUM WRAPPER HIDES
AS THE TRAIN BEGINS TO GROOVE
YOU TAKE A STEP AND
YOU TRY TO RELAX
AND YOU LAUGH OUT LOUD WHO?
WELL I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S GOIN
AND I DON'T EVEN SEEM TO CARE
WELL I'LL CATCH THE WIND AS IT'S BLOWIN
HOPING MY MIND WILL CLEAR
AND I'M RIDING OVER THE D LINE
TRYING TO FIND A SEAT
AND I'LL CHOOSE THE ONE BETWEEN YOU AND I
AND I'LL NEVER KNOW YOUR NAME
SQUEAKY TUMBLE AND THE JERKY SHUFFLE
WILD CROWDS AND THE ANGRY HUSTLE
FLICKERING LIGHTS YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR STEP
AND THEN
STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS
YOU'RE HEADED TO WORK
YOU THINK YOUR BOSS IS A JERK
AND YOU'RE AFRAID TO LOSE YOUR COOL
YOU TRIP ON A COKE
YOU THINK YOU'RE LONELY AND BROKE
AND YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE TO LOSE
YOU TAKE A STEP BACK
AND YOU TRY TO RELAX
AND YOU LAUGH OUT LOUD TO WHO?
WELL I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S GOIN
AND I DON'T EVEN SEEM TO CARE
WELL I'LL CATCH THE WIND AS IT'S BLOWIN
HOPING MY MIND WILL CLEAR
AND I'M RIDING OVER THE D LINE
TRYING TO FIND A SEAT
AND I'LL CHOOSE THE ONE BETWEEN YOU AND I
AND I'LL NEVER KNOW YOUR NAME
SQUEAKY TUMBLE AND THE JERKY SHUFFLE
WILD CROWDS AND THE ANGRY HUSTLE
FLICKERING LIGHTS YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR STEP
AND THEN
STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS
YOU BETTER STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS
AND THE MAN WITH NO TEETH
HE TRIES TO TELL YOU A JOKE
AND THE KID WHO KEEPS SCREAMING
AND HIS MOM JUST CAN'T COPE
IT'S THE MYSTERY PACKAGE
LEFT UNDER THE SEAT
AND AS THE PANIC CONSUMES YOU
THERE'S JUST NO WHERE TO BE
SQUEAKY TUMBLE AND THE JERKY SHUFFLE
WILD CROWDS AND THE ANGRY HUSTLE
FLICKERING LIGHTS YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR STEP
AND THEN
STAND CLEAR OF THE CLOSING DOORS
YOU BETTER STAND CLEAR OF THE
GOD FORSAKEN, GRUMBLING
RUSTY METAL
NOW DON'T LOSE YOURSELF TO THE
CLOSING DOORS...
