Like a firestorm coming out of the dark She was walking Like a needled hay stack there was a spark We were talking, just talking Maryanne, with your merry ways Won't you stay for days with your purple haze And your boxcar photograph? Like camouflage it was not so clear If she was needing, or just needing down time But I came to her with my confession I had found it. I had found this before. I was reading all of the papers on how to get you, sketch you--But I realized I was chasing dust Just call me

You can come a little bit closer now baby You can sew what I'm about 'Cause every time I feel you approaching me now darling You make me wanna shout If you see me one time downtown dancin' You can step right up to me This is the season when it's time for romancin' While we are free You can come a little bit closer now baby Tell me what's your name You can tell me anything you like now, honey I think I'll like you just the same And if you see me one time downtown dancin' Step right up to me This is the season when it's time for romancin' While we are free

A Little Kissing (free) 02:47
A little kissing never hurt anybody A little kissing never hurt anyone A little kissing never hurt anybody Especially on a Saturday night
4.
Time To Slow Down (free) 03:13
It's time to slow down It's time to relax It's time to listen closely It's time to move past It's time to set free All the things that I've held So dearly to myself and the way that I've felt It's time to breathe in It's time to breathe out It's time to slow down I was running so fast On a fume and a prayer I didn't notice the time was slipping away And I couldn't care 'Cause I said lots of things That I didn't mean And all the while I was trying so desperately hard Just to be something clean But it's time to breathe in It's time to breathe out It's time to slow down Alone in this bed as I write these last words And I say this goodnight To my lingering fright and the calling The calling of birds To take me away To take me away To take me away Take me away It's time to breathe in It's time to breathe out Its time to slow down
5.
Creep Song (free) 03:39
I tiptoed to your house As quiet as a mouse So I could sing this song For you, it won't take long, it goes Oooooo I crept through your back gate When it was very late I tiptoed through your home You thought you were alone Oooooo Oooooo Lay down Hearted Lay down Cold Lay down Your heart and Lay down your soul I walk the fine line Send clovers down your spine I walked downtown today So I could here you say Oooooo Lay down Hearted Lay down Cold Lay down Your heart and Lay down you soul
6.
Someone 02:52
I finally found someone who understands me Someone who can actually stand me Someone who's trying hard to be true And that someone my darling is you Nights they went by and they were so lonely Thinking that I might be the only That is 'til someone came and took away my blues And that someone my darling was you I know sometimes I feeling down But you show me away from my frown And we love each other Although we have had misunderstandings They've never ended in an ending These are beginnings of a love with someone new And that someone my darling is you
7.
The door is shut The table's clear The chairs are stacked before me But I did not receive your invitation A game of chance, uneasy glance As you glide by the table Do not forgive and don't forget you're able What's with your new foreign policy, it's news to me You take your turn but how it burns I'm only trying to see You choose your words and in a flash You say that this over But every time it's clear it's not an ending So I stay calm but in my heart I'm not sure what to do now So Ill sit here and pretend my heart is mending I can't afford to end this I can't afford to stay If you say it's over, I will go my way The door is shut The table's clear The chairs are stacked before me But I did not receive your invitation
8.
Vile Smile 02:41
When it comes and it goes Vile smile, right under your nose It's absurd, but then again it's fine May be mean, obscene, but it's divine You and all your dividends You and all your consequence So, we see the end, and that it bends like this Craters form beneath the eyes And you turn to meet the demise Of a word once rewritten in time It was floored in deep depths of the mind You and all your dividends You and all of your consequence So, we see the end And that is bends like this
