1. angel

I dreamed you,                                                                            
I saw your face. 
Cut my lifeline when drifting through space. 

I saw an angel,                                                                             
I saw my fate.                                                                                    
I can only thank God it was not too late.                           

Over mountains, 
I floated away. 
Cross an ocean, 
I dreamed her name. 

I followed an angel down through the gates. 
I can only thank God it was not too late. 

Sing a little song of loneliness,                         
Sing one to make me smile. 
Another round for everyone, 
I'm here for a little while. 

Now I'm walkin' 
This street on my own. 
But she's with me 
Everywhere I go. 

Yeah, I found an angel, 
I found my place. 
I can only thank God it was not too late. 
I can only thank God it was not too late. 
I can only thank God it was not too late

 

2. fireworks

Then your eyes       bathed the room in a warmth                                        
I have never seen before 
Not even in my dreams    how am I to keep moving 
Tho I am completely floored 

Right outside           fireworks were bursting thru 
The December sky 
And who am I          lost inside this heart as big as 
The mountainside 

Nothing will be the same           Nothing will be the same                       

Then your heart     smiled and I swear I felt the 
Whole of the galaxy expand 
You were breathing           and I was hearing music 
Dancing in the in and out 

Nothing will be the same           Nothing will be the same 

Every star that shines                                                                              
Every word that’s ever rhymed 
Every light in the sky                                                                               
Is you  ah ah                                                                                                
Is you ah ah                                                                                                            

Then I cried              could I behold the world upon 
The lips of all time 
Then you spoke      we were walking thru the canyon 
Of renewed hope 

Nothing will be the same           Nothing will be the same 

Chorus 

Every dream to ever fly                                                    
Every song is only the bat of your eye 

Chorus 

Nothing will be the same

 

3. better

You are a blue sky to a long night                                                   
And I know it can only get better 
Your shy laugh with your head down 
I know your heart is so clever 

Everything I ever wanted is sitting right here                         
Smiling at me                                                                         

Id give you everything I can my heart my hand                
Oh I know it’ll only get better 

Your stories are a warm breeze 
To a heart frozen over 
When you speak I swear everything 
Stops to listen closer 

Everything I ever wanted is sitting right here 
Smiling at me 

Id give you everything I can my heart my hand 
Oh I know it’ll only get better 
I’ll walk down every road no fear hand in hand 
Oh you make it all better 

You’re a full bite of chocolate right when I’m tired 
But you can life me up better 
Your embrace gives me the strength to grow 
And see beyond the weather 

Everything I ever wanted your name makes it clear 
Smiling at me 

Chorus 

Nothing can compare no matter how hard it tries    to your shine          
Noone can compare no matter how hard they try    to your heart your mind 

Everything I ever wanted is sitting right here 
Showing me how to dream 

Chorus

 

4. pretty little love

She got a pretty little love
A pretty little face
Got a pretty little light she shines my way
Got a pretty little heartbeat
I can feel through my dreams
And it makes me smile

She shines
Sunflowers in the light
She shines
Makes it alright
Look in her eyes
She shines

She got a pretty little love
With a pretty little laugh
Got this pretty little way of making it last
Got pretty little angel wings
She'd have done differently
She still shrugs and smiles

Chorus

She shines

 

5. breathe believe

Somedays you may forget the wings you’ve                               
Carried all along 
Your play slows down to a crawl and you 
Cant dance under the weight 

You’ve been trying so long                                                      
Doesn’t mean you’re not strong                                         
You just need a new song                                                     

Let me lift you up        take it and make it ok                   
It don’t take much       I can be some harmony 
Let’s open your wings if you want you’re a cosmic dream 
We can forget everything   and let these arms 
Give you the space to breathe and believe                                

The shit people do takes your time & makes the 
Heart come loose 
I know you’re always working for love trying to feel 
Something from their shoes 

You’ve been trying to long 
Still shining so strong 
You just need a new song 

Chorus 

Breathe you are already so much                               
Sometimes it just takes a touch    to see                                      

You’ve been trying so long 
No doubt you are strong 
Try out this new song 

Chorus

 

6. improve

OOH! Baby I never met another like you                                                    
Aw what am I supposed to do 

So long ago I had to bury my heart                                                     
Thought Id ever had to live without a spark 
All these tears tried to wash me away 
Never thought Id stand in a sunny day 

Ooh Ooh then arrived you 
I knew things were gonna change 

OOH! Baby I never met another like you 
Aw what am I supposed to do 
OOH! Baby you’re a higher altitude 
Aw you make me want to improve 
Oh Oh Oh your mind is solid gold 
You make me want to improve 
Oh Oh Oh your heart holds 
Multitudes 

When you opened your eyes every galaxy alights 
Spinning and swirling no time to be shy 
Can I talk to you? Lay down what’s inside 
Hand in hand got nothing to hide 

Ooh Ooh then I saw the truth 
Ooh Ooh things are gonna change 

Chorus 

She’s gone Hall and Oats but you changed the tune                                   
Lay It Down Al Green when you need it so smoooooooooth 

Solo 

Ooh Ooh with you I an never full 
Ooh Ooh things are gonna change 

Chorus

 

7. to feel home

Holding it all in                                                                                    
You’re searching for the sunshine 
Everywhere you’ve been 
Is hanging like a clothes line 
Some days you feel the weight on your back 
Easy to forget not all hearts attack 

Time is calling in 
Put your phone on silent 
Everything begins 
Where the corner of life is 
Some nights a friend tries to help you rise 
Light house shines out like in my eyes 

Daysha     gift from the sunshine                                    
Daysha     thaws my ice                                                  
Oh oh on eagle wings 
Oh oh she talks to me 
I just want her to feel home                                         

Talking with the wind 
Living by your own guide 
Paint and glaze again 
Carving out a new tide 
Some days you cant open your eyes 
These arms can hold back the night 

Chorus 

Verse Solo  -- Bridge                            

Chorus   Oh oh on eagle wings        oh oh she lives her dreams 
I just want her to feel home

 

8. let's light

The moon sits bright in your eyes 
My heart is your tide 
Running thru my mind  every outline 
Of your Holy Land 

I just gotta say you make me feel 
Like this is why I was made 
We can sway and we can heal we can turn to face 
All of what we’re afraid 

What I got for you will never run out 
This love knows no drought 

Unconditional 
Unconditional 
You already got my heart 
Lets light up the dark 

Hold me close I know 
Its ok to relax 
Time slows in your hold 
I want you feeling to the max 

I just gotta say you make me feel 
Like this is why I was made 
We can touch and we can heal we can turn to face 
A beautiful day 

What I got for you I’ll always give 
This love is here to live 

Chorus 

We can explore the boundaries of us 
We can implore a kiss that never stops 
In your arms I want more you’re all I want 
We can soar beyond where hope stops 

What I got for you I volunteer 
This love knows no fear 

Chorus

 

9. presence

How do I show you that this love is true                                                
How do I show you what I see when I look at you 
How do I sing the words to this song 
When all I know is it’s the only place I belong 

I can show you how I feel                                                                        
With a life time making it real                                                                 

We can bring love                                                                          
Beyond what we’ve ever known 
As sure as the sky 
I’ll be forever reminded 
That I am in awe                                                                            
In the presence of your heart 

How do I show you what I mean 
When you are all the wildflowers I have ever seen 
How do I know this will last 
Well inside your eyes is more than I could ever understand 

I can show you who I am 
Ive nothing to hide a heart before you stands 

Chorus 

Awe/ heart                                                                                               

How do I give you anything 
You are already every star I have ever seen 
How do I not keep opening 
When there is love that soars beyond every limit of me            

Chorus 

Heart                       

 

10. flower in the spring

You got roots so deep and wide                                                             
You can stand taller than the sky                                                            
In your smile I live a thousand lives 
Keeping me warm and laughing at time 

You can be it all                                                                                           
Truly you wear the stars in your shawl                                                            

All I ever wanted                                                             
All I ever dreamed                                                                                
Dance around you 
Like a flower in the spring                                                        

Everyday you’re a smile rising 
No matter the weight of breaking horizons 
In your hair I swim like Mother Ganga 
I love being swept away by your mind’s living water 

You can be it all 
To be witnessing fells my walls 

Chorus 

You can score your goals whenever you please                    
Cant be contained even in infinity                                             

You can be it all 
I love all the beauty even in the faults 

Chorus

                                 

11. pastel cascade

Step dust fire blood                                                                
Fallin down your  cheap trust resounds                                 
Sway  cusp ice runs 
Painting every single dream 

Maybe it’s time to light up lilac                                               
Maybe its time you try that why lack 
Slide  thru the cracks                                                      
Pastel cascade 

Breath lust finger brush 
Dripping past the leaves fall tribute 
Pray tall sage the lush 
Every little phrase like the moon is new 

Maybe its time you light up lilac 
Maybe its time you try that syke out 
Slide  thru the cracks                                                       
Write in the wax   oh ooh-oh oh 
Guide your song out 
Thru the voice that cracks                                            
Pastel cascade   oh oh-oh                                               
Pastel cascade 

Solo 

Reach thru the calling hours                              
Reach thru your wildflowers                               

Scent weep fire sing 
Breaking thru the wall to it all 

Maybe its time to light up             
Slide  thru the cracks 
Write in the wax 
Guide your voice out 
Thru the voice cracks 
Pastel cascade    oh oh-oh oh 
Pastel cascade … 

 

12. close

Maybe it all means something                                                  

I don’t see you for days and I just wither away 
Try so hard not to feel but feeling grows anyway 
Every time I close my eyes 
Its you 

Your eyes keep me enchanted I could live right there 
Years and years go by felt like a minute stare 
Every time I close my eyes 
Its you 

Maybe it all means something (2x) 
So close      one touch I wish we’d share                                                        
So close     my love is with you longer than the stars will fare              

I could hold your hand weak as I am I could hold you up 
We could take a ride and I could ever ever be filled up 
Every word I say 
Is you 

The way you talk I could listen til the sun gives out 
Hear all your stories again and again theyd never be worn out 
Every time you speak 
I bloom 

Chorus 

Ooh ooh  Im not scared at all                                                                  
Whatever comes we can walk thru walls 
Ooh ooh I can bear it all 
Ill walk with you whenever you call                                                     

Chorus 

So close   one touch beyond compare 
So close   this love is your no doubt no fear 

 

13. nowhere

From the mud of the Cuyahoga          Built up what I could                                      
Drew hearts on the brick streets         Sang from my blood                           

Encouraged everybody                        In the beauty of their own light 
Talked about Big Love                          Danced thru the night 

Oh oh oh (2x)                                                                                    
Maybe I don’t   Maybe I don’t   Maybe I don’t                    
Belong here                                                                             

Drove out my tires                               From town to town to town 
Singing about the goodness                That’s got to come around 

Opened up to wisdom                         Thru many a face 
The thing with smiles                           They always fade 

Chorus 

Took my feet up the mountain           Sat with the pines and the rocks 
The stream is always running              And singing a song 

Eyes are always shining                       Then turning away 
I could see forever                                But nothing stays 

Chorus 

Closed my eyes and chanted               The name that I love 
When the sound was over                   I still was not home 

Chorus

Antelope Flats 

Sea of green sage far as I can see far as I can dream 
Accents in between yellow blossoms silent subtlety 
Oh my eyes cannot behold the scope
Oh my life is a bouquet by the road 

Cottonwood aspen & pines in sacred lines dance to a beat of time 
Tall as they can be their tales are told as the birds sing 
Oh my heart is the downbeat 
Oh my mind is never gonna leave 

Chorus: Just like the field where roam the buffalo 
        I will graze through your love til it’s all I know 
        Til I’m home I’m home 
        Like a river flows down from you – never-ending truth 

Seat of wild grace coyote face in stillness what is want 
Clouds begin to paint on canvas blue a portrait of you 
Oh my life is a cloud you could say 
Oh why do I forget it’s play 

Chorus 

Prostrate to the mountain high 
Embrace the herd like a child 
Clearing through the sage 
Feeling One and the same 

Oh my mind is bathed in the breeze 

Chorus 

 

Coyote & Badger  

Maybe I’ve been misleading a time or two  
Maybe my plans are fleeting  
Maybe I’m lazy well these are lazy days  
Maybe I’ve been waiting for you  

Dusk sets me singing doesn’t it for you  
These days are made for running  
You’re protesting but I see through you  

Chorus: I never meant to trick you, I never meant to trick you  
          But I want you to play  
          I will sing out for you, a story of our truth  
          You know you’re much too serious  
          These days, these days  

Sometimes I get carried away it is true  
But you are insane  
Maybe we could work together who knows what we could do  
Maybe we could lie in the flowers with the moon  

Life is for living don’t you see  
Dust is not worth holding  
This breath is for a symphony  

Chorus  

Words that do not rhyme do not equate a lie  
Don’t you see my smile  
Once I tried to fly and fell from a height  
I can no longer see  
But I cannot forget how small things get  
When I look around  
Time will bring change and you will surely break  
If you lose your laugh  

Chorus 2: Let go of supposed to’s, Let go of supposed to’s  
              Don’t hesitate 

 

Walk Up to the Sky 

It’s hard to believe you can walk up to the sky  
Fields of wildflowers, fields of life  
One foot in front of the other, the path winds  
Birdsong symphonies play like opening night  

I only want to feel the breath of this place  

Chorus: Rising Up, to where there is  
       Only Love, Only Us  
       Rising Up  

It’s hard to believe we were just down below  
I look into existence I barely see a road  
Economy and politics have never made the hike  
I think of my importance but I’m nothing, nothing in sight  

I only want to feel the breath of this place  

Chorus  

There is no direction you can’t see  
On the mountain, mountain of sheep  
Stones, stones and ladybugs  
Million stories of Mother’s touch  

Oh…  

Chorus 

 

My Himalayas 

Carved out from the dreams that we shared, long ago 
Tall as the hope of man, but stronger 
I feel You calling                
I fall at Your feet 

Your coat of pines and wildflowers, Your tattoos of stone 
Your lakes lay like tears from Your eyes, tears of a Mother 
I feel You calling                
Inside of my sleep 

Chorus: My (my) Himalayas  Oh my (Thy) Love leads the way 

Eagles fly and wolves howl, song of gratitude 
Long as the reach of the kind, but longer 
I feel You calling                
Light washes us clean 

Chorus 

Oh teach me to see                    Oh this in everything 
Oh I seek guidance                     Oh to stand in sacred silence 

I feel You calling                
You are my bones 

Chorus 

From the dust to the ice to the snow to the stone 
From the bloom to the life to the branch to the heart exposed 
From the rain to the clouds to the mud to the season’s glow 
From the rivers rushing down Your face to feed us all 
To feed us all 

Chorus 

 

Moran  

Forged in the fire of molten stone  
Caverns of desire this heart was born  
Hewn from the spires that sought to reach higher  
Hmm  

An amplifier formed out of snow and limestone  
Called upon the choir from rocks as it rose  
And it rose up to rewire all that was known before  

Chorus: The center of relation lies at top of Moran  
All my quotations are more stone than man  
Adaptations are reflections as you stand  
This celebration of heart in heartland  
Centered from Moran …  

Jackson Lake sits at your feet  
Still the waves of your devotee  
Covered in clouds or blue sky bound  
You are bound to feel that all that was known still soars  

Chorus  

Sky to shore you are a bridge  
Calling down Mother with Mother’s kiss  
Sky to shore seasons thread  
You say more in words unsaid  

Chorus

 

Lupine Meadow 

Sitting on a boulder sprawled out in a meadow 
Placed in this exact spot by ice and tectonic renewal 
Just beyond the pine trees just below the waterfall 
The first place I go in my mind to catch my fall 

Chorus: All of my life is blossom on lupine meadow 
          All of the time what I thought was change was just a shadow 
          Blooming, blooming, blooming 
          Indigo … 

The rushing waters sound even louder than my brain 
My thoughts can really dance but they don’t know my name 
The elk just live here foraging through the afternoon 
How can there be so much space but we never have enough room 

Chorus: All of my life is a blossom on lupine meadow 
               All of the time what I heard was just my echo 
               Blooming, blooming, blooming 
               Indigo … 

Blue sky looking up, Teewonot looking up, Daylight waking up 
That which we express only by breathing 
Blue sky looking up, Tetons looking up, sage shrines taking up 
That which we express only through being 
Blue sky looking up, Teewonot looking up, My mind looking up, My lines meeting up 
Bear kind gracing us, One life embracing us, One light meeting up, One light 

Chorus 

 

Togwotee  

Wide open space  
Snow barely stays away  
You could touch the Breccia peaks  
Hands in the sky, the sky in your feet  

Chorus: O Togwotee …  

One curve and your lost  
Keep a close eye on your thoughts  
But if you want to roam  
Set your feet to go, go, go!  

Chorus    

If I think of Heaven  
It is in this meadow  
You could touch time  
Loose your feet, lose your mind  

Chorus  

Oh oh …

 

Dances & Moves  

She dances & moves in time as time  
She kicks and grooves a tango sublime  
Was there always song or is She Melody  
Is Her breath the heartbeat of all things  

She dances from the ice and rock that touches the clouds  
A wild deluge she carves Her steps out  

She dances and moves in time as time she’s a wild deluge  
She dances and spins born of ice bet Her heart is burning  
Born of ice but Her heart is still burning  

She glances at you through leaves and bark and dew  
She is standing still Her silence is renewal  
Is there any light between Her and green  
Between Her darkness and spring  
Between a flower and Being  

She dances and moves in time as time a wild deluge… 

 

Om Devi 

Om Devi Shailaputryai Namaha  

Chorus: Jai Ma, Jai Jai Ma  

Om Devi Shailaputryai Namaha  

Chorus  

Om Devi Shailaputryai Namaha 

 

Ursa  

Oh-oh oh …  

Afremov sun waking  
Shades of purple, pink and gold flaking remaking  
Every canvas from stone to sage  
Silver mist dilating aching  
Laying on the ground like a lover in waiting  
From tongue to tongue lost in translating  

And Dawn swells 
Like the dance that 
Created the world  

Chorus: oh oh-oh-oh mother is waking up 
oh oh-oh-oh some days I'm just a cub 
oh oh-oh-oh mother is waking up 
oh oh-oh-oh today is looking up  

Wide open spaces, ageless  
Streams like vivacious shoelaces  
Flower after flower blooms as I say it's name  
We walk out paces, faces lit up  

The land embraces and traces our trust  
And in the end, we're just bears in a poem about love  

And Dawn swells  
As the dance that  
Created the world  

Chorus  

The song of the free  
Awaken evergreen  
You contravene  
But I see the mystery  

Oh …  

Chorus

 

Pacific Creek 

Maybe it’s the Grizzly roaming the hills 
Maybe it’s the feeling the forest fulfills 
Ever-changing clouds there’s winter on the wind 
Never mind the season the ancient dawns again 

I am drawn to the flowers, a rainbow underfoot 
The meadow showers in every color it could 

Chorus: Pacific creek         Oh I dream like your waters flow 
        Pacific creek   You speak in the tongue of ancient stones 
        I believe you’re beyond the reach of time 

Maybe it’s Two Ocean with Her willowed shore 
Maybe it’s the feeling you’re looking behind the door 
Verdant forest full and whispering 
Climb to the ridge for the mountain offering 

I am drawn to the sage, wisdom fields renew 
Fragrant cleansing I know where Truth grows 

Chorus 

From Grand View the only hue is Mother’s face 
Tetons stretch and soothe with prostrate Jackson Lake 
All I seek are whispers from eternity 

Verso Solo 

I am drawn to the wolves, howling at my back 
Every song is prayer, everyone’s in the pack 

 

Oxbow  

Everything comes together  
Where the river bends  
Echoes of lifetimes like shadows on water  
Mountain is silent playful daughter  

Chorus: Great circle of life keep on spinning  
              Whatever the page it's still beginning  
              I lay down my bones, will I ever let go  
             She says follow Me if you wanna know  

Four-legged nation's, with wing and in water  
Life is abundant, why do you doubt you are  

Chorus 2: Great circle of life keep on spinning  
                 Whatever the page there is no ending  
                 The water flows, am I a stone  
                 She says you're the one thing needed most  

I want to show you, but you must want to move  
I flow a million Niles, you're made of sky but you speak denials  

Everything comes together  

Where the river bends  

Chorus 1  

She says come with Me you already know  

… outro … 

 

Small Still Flame  

Not lost     nor do I wander  
Lands crossed  map surrendered  
I am a pilgrim (3x)  
Making my way through the temple of your heart  

Sacred drum   eastern light  
Voices sound  somewhere deep inside  
I am a pilgrim (3x)  
Making my way through your words to your heart  

Heart …  

Fairly tales   flowers in the moon  
Cedar smoke  dancing residues  
I am a pilgrim (3x)  
Making my way through the painting to the very spark  

Spark …  

The land doesn’t change   any more  
I am not the same a new wave  upon the shore  
Song screams and prays  Bloody knees these days  
Land of dreams   land of today  
Will I reach  that small still flame  

Not lost   the wild is lover  
Paths crossed  smile ascending  
I am a pilgrim (3x)  
Making my way through the temple of your heart  

Heart …

 

Volunteer  

The Earth, she laughs in flowers  
This meadow is hysterical  
Such joy in every color  
No more monochromatic rule  

Even dandelions being to bear something great  
Words fail, fail to capture the scope this scene elevates  

Oh the mountain shows us 
One look and we all agree 
Time is ever-waiting 
For us to act accordingly  

Chorus: Wide eyes always see 
Blue skies and new meanings 
This height makes it clear 
All that matters is the love we volunteer  

Everyday these wildflowers  
See the world from up here  
Snow capped and distant mountains  
No place, no root for fear  

Oh the mountain shows us 
One look and we all agree 
Time is ever-waiting 
For us to live more compassionately  

Chorus  

Bridge  

Chorus: Wide eyes always see  
                Night sky and the dawning  

Chorus 

 

Where Such Beauty Resides 

I went searching for true beauty 
I found it in your face 
In the light that inhabits your leaves 
The wings that fill your space 

There is something of magic 
Where such beauty resides 
To stand in witness 
Of where the heart never hides 

Chorus: falling at your feet … 
            Someday I'll grow into me 

Went searching for something 
I could not define 
Was it all caught up in Love 
Was it my last lifeline 

There is something of magic 
Where confusion breaks you down 
The cottonwood is witness 
To the heart that never doubts 

Chorus 

Someday I'll grow beyond a seed 

Generations, ge-generations come to call 
Generations, ge-generations return home 
All my relations, all my relations come to call 
Your face, engrossing face, your face a portrait of the them all 

Chorus 

Someday I'll sing your memories 

There is something of magic, oh ohh          Where such beauty Resides, oh ohh 
Falling at your feet …                                  Someday I'll walk steady
