Feel It Coming On Never knew what I wanted, always lookin’ for a change Tried my best to make it fit, my mind got rearranged I turned on just like a light, could feel there was nothing wrong I’ve been waitin’ for a lifetime, but now, now I feel it comin’ on I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on Lookin’ out from the inside, Lord knows, it’s been so long Just look at all the beauty, all my blues are done and gone I turned on just like a light, could feel there was nothing wrong I’ve been waitin’ for a lifetime, but now, now I feel it comin’ on I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on I turned on just like a light, could feel there was nothing wrong I’ve been waitin’ for a lifetime, but now, now I feel it comin’ on I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on, I feel it comin’ on

Is It Unwise? Is It Unwise to dream of many things that don’t exist? Is it Unwise to think of things that do? I see flowers from the sky fall upon the ground, I see rainbows in black shadows of night I see colors that only I can see. I hear songs that only I can sing. Is it unwise to argue with a crowd of men? Is it unwise to argue with a solitary man? I feel things that no one else can feel. I am one who no one else can be. Live your life the way you want to live your life Don’t let others sway you from your journey I feel things that no one else can feel, I am one who no one else can be Live your life the way you want to live your life Don’t let others sway you from your journey Live your life the way you want to live your life. Live your life the way you want to live your life. Live your life.

Blood I see the blood of the People spilling on the plain I watch the blood of the People mixing with the rain The dead are with the living, watching over our sacred lands They were here long before you came, left their footprints in the sand How many tears have yet to fall when seeing what you've done Seven generations gone, are there Seven yet to come? From the seven great directions, from every circle, every hill From everywhere you've come to claim this land you seek to kill They say the flowing blood runs strong, like memories on the wind Whispering inside my veins, they're coming back again Standing on this sacred ground, the past runs through my brain Genetic memory seared into my flesh like blood mixed with the rain Beyond the understanding of those who would rape this land For every tree a wise man fells another tree must rise again And here beneath the winter sky as snow begins to fall Calling those ancestral names, my Blood runs thick with rain

Premonition I had a premonition, I saw you walking out the door Was it just a dream or was it the same dream I dreamt the night before I know it's only superstition, I should think about the facts But something tells me you won't be coming back You say there's no way of knowing what's real, but maybe I do And when I think of real I - I think of you Was it really precognition, or just the status quo? A real time mystic vision of something I should know? So, Pardon my condition, I know I'm sounding like I've lost my way But somehow I know everything you're going to say You'll say love has run it's course, you've changed your mind again And knowing that gets me to cryin' every now and then I had a premonition, I saw you walking out the door Was it just a dream or was it the same dream I dreamt the night before?

Smoke and Mirrors If I was destined to be a prophet, I could be a man who robs you blind You may never see the truth, you've got something else on your mind Don't look behind the curtain, it's all just smoke and mirrors That's exactly what they want, it shouldn't be all that clear Look at the faces in the crowd. None of them will ever know me But when the music gets real loud, there's someone else they see Well, it's all smoke and mirrors, dancin' until the break of dawn Don't look behind that curtain, it's time to get my Mojo on

Winter Sky The sun hides it's warmth from the dark cold winter sky Wind rushes down the mountain, the Wolves begin to cry The snow begins to fall , it covers everything in sight Shadows dance across my windows as day falls into night But I'll stay warm inside, sitting by the fire With my guitar in hand, I couldn't feel much higher With my guitar in my hands, I couldn't feel much higher I'm still warm inside, sitting by the fire With my guitar in hand, I couldn't feel much higher With my guitar in my hands, I couldn't feel much higher Ice hangs from the doorway, the trees sing a brittle song Smoke curls from the chimney, I'm back where I belong I'll stay warm inside, sitting by the fire With my guitar in hand, I couldn't feel much higher With my guitar in my hands, I couldn't feel much higher I'll stay warm inside, sitting by the fire With my guitar in hand, I couldn't feel much higher With my guitar in my hands, I couldn't get much higher I'll stay warm inside, sitting by the fire With my guitar in hand, I couldn't feel much higher With my guitar in my hands, I couldn't get much higher

One Step Over The Edge There's an owl outside in the night sky, he's calling out my name There's a big full moon, a witch’s broom, the roads all look the same Somewhere a coyote's crying, there's a mist rising up from the ground There's a man at the bar with a black guitar, but he's gone when I turn around I put one foot into the fire, took one step over the edge I went running into the dark of the night, kept hanging onto the ledge Put one foot into the fire, take one step over the edge Keep running into the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge Put one foot into the fire, take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge I'm sliding into the Inkwell with a woman’s heart, black as the night She's leading me down the pathway to hell, and I can't even put up a fight I cry, "JESUS, why won't you help me? Can't you see she's pulling me down?" And Jesus, he looks right at me and says, "Son, it's after sundown, So put one foot into the fire and take one step over the edge, They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge.” Put one foot into the fire, take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge There's an owl outside in the night sky, he's calling out my name There's a big full moon, a witch’s broom, and the roads all look the same Somewhere a Coyote's crying, there's a mist rising up from the ground There's a man at the bar with an old guitar, and he's gone when I turn around So put one foot into the fire and take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness keep hanging onto the ledge Put one foot into the fire take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge So put one foot into the fire and take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge Put one foot into the fire, take one step over the edge They’ll be rising up in the darkness, keep hanging onto the ledge

In The Black of Night You were always one with the light, you were the one who led the way You were so relentless and brave, and I took everything you gave And in the black of night I hear you call In the black of night I hit the wall You never hesitated, never stopped to think Nothing ever scared you, standing on the brink And in the black of night I hear you call In the black of night I hit the wall Lost, on this path without end, looking for the entrance, where this journey first began Arrows lead in circles, round and round and round Cryptic, mystic, apocalyptic, the path begins again And in the black of night I hear you call In the black of night I hit the wall Walking aimless footpaths, continents and isles I traveled through the universe, Adding up the miles Searching for the answers To questions I can't ask I found this endless universe Much too vast And in the black of night I hear you call In the black of night I hit the wall And in the black of night I hear you call In the black of night I hit the wall

Perfection You tell me it's so simple to follow every step that you take Well if it's so damn simple, what about all those mistakes you make? I'm waiting for direction, but I'm not hearing anything from you You always want perfection... well baby, I want you to be perfect too You want my dedication, well show me something worthy of my time Not all this damn frustration while waiting for your planets to align I'm waiting for direction, but I'm not hearing anything from you You always want perfection, Well baby, I want you to be perfect too

Sweet Dreams The sweetest moments were those I spent with you Dreaming dreams of other places How many days how many nights did we live those dreams Sweet dreams sweet dreams But sleep won’t come now that you’re gone, And everyone says I should move on Everyone says I should move on Everyone says I should move on Sweet dreams, sweet dreams If I could sleep I wouldn’t dream of anything but you That’s what I would do If I could sleep maybe I could dream forever Sweet dreams Sweet, sweet dreams sweet, sweet dreams Sweet dreams sweet dreams But sleep won’t come now that you’re gone, and everyone says I should move on If I could sleep maybe I could dream forever Sweet dreams, Sweet, sweet dreams, sweet, sweet dreams

Seen By The Eye When love is gone, there's no way to bring it back Like the wind, it's lost to the storm Whisper the breeze, warmth of the sun on stone Beyond the rain comes the dawn Life becomes love only when truth is known Anything less is living the lie And I want it real, don't like the games we play All that we do is seen by the eye Weather the storm, dark is the sky with clouds Rise of the wind, fall of the rain Love takes a turn into the light To rest until the storm comes again
