The Wrecker Song
Etched in stone. etched in glass An unforgiving dashboard knows Your name In a speeding America What's in the moment Before you die? What's in the moment When your life up and Passes you by?

Crushed Velvet
You wear straw by daylight The day is made of straw Crushed velvet for twilight It helps to break your fall You shun the sun at noon Because the heat could make you thaw Fractured by moonlight You say the crutches make you tall The night is made of nothing There is nothing to fear Not the Thief,...

Kiss Me Friday
Now is the time, now is the time The apple is ripe; assassins in line Now is the time It was one of those; you know what I mean Doomed from the start, fall down the stairs You know what I mean There I was reading Tropic of Cancer Flush with caffeine, teeming inside Converging at last on an answer...

When the steam starts to rise from Market Street That’ll be me, that’ll be me When the promise of night haunts your every dream That’ll be me, that’ll be me What it was used to be so unusual Now an empty face in a broken bus window Wheels go round without saying so Foghorns wail without asking…

Careless Smile
Hey, tell me why you think It all went wrong Why the world will not be saved With just a song When the morning comes There's a cruel surprise With a clever wink And a careless smile You enter the room With a knowing look And a careless smile They say the world will end It’ll end at dawn Hey, tell...

Most Precious Things
You are where the heart is And, oh, the time it takes to fall An upright man goes to his knees I’ll not look back again — not look back at all Your grip was so hard But your ghost has the most tender hands Your tongue was so sharp But I’ll recall the most precious things you said Most precious...

Lover's Tattoo
From the cradle to the grave Plays a song I will remember Tapping at the window One long, cold December On clean sheets Where lonely hearts beat A lover’s tattoo Detailed in sweet surrender Some things you can’t forget But best not remembered In dreams we dream What happiness will not allow From...

International Dateline
