Earth 05:23
She held me in her limbs of twisted vine Her words were pure as water, sweet as wine I could feel her on my skin I could touch her with my hands Caught up in a world of my own fears I let her slip away without much care I valued what I took not what she gave Patiently she waits for love's return I was wrong. I was wrong. I should have never let her go

Why can't I find what I want? What I want can't be too much When I get just what I want I find that I'm out of touch This house is haunted This house is haunted like me She lived here for 47 years Raised family and saw them on their way She left the earth in this front room But her spirit decided to stay She's here but she don't say so much Things change, nothing's for certain I try, then I pull the blinds Over Mrs Cannon's white lace curtains This house is haunted This house is haunted like me

By Your Side 03:47
The rains may fall and the rivers rise I've seen it all; the truth and lies The winds may howl, the skies turn black I've played my hand, I won't turn back In the middle of the darkest night In the desert and the blinding light I will rise as I have tried I will stand by your side The ghosts that haunt steal your mind Stumbling through space and time The winds may how, the skies turn black I've played my hand, I won't turn back In the middle of the darkest night In the desert and the blinding light I will rise as I have tried I will stand by your side

A rare configuration Of Venus, Moon and Mars Drawn into something new Guided by the stars There's light within the madness Fear behind your eyes A heart so raw I hear its call And all your worlds collide She breathes in. She breathes out. She breathes in and she breathes out And all your worlds collide When memories come flooding back I move to higher ground Still my mind until I find Thanks for what I've found She breathes in. She breathes out. She breathes in and she breathes out And all your worlds collide She says "I don't know" She asks to go slow She says "I don't know" She weeps then lets go And all your worlds collide

I should have seen it coming I should have taken notice I should have always told her How much I really want her I should have been smarter I should have stayed closer I should have known better That I could never keep her Falling, falling. Fall into winter I will change Falling, falling. Fall into water I will change I should have known better I should have tried harder I should have always told her How much I really want her Falling, falling. Fall into winter I will change Falling, falling. Fall into water I will change
