In Days of Yore (Intro)

We got along quite joyfully,
running from time & much more.
Then there was warmth & sweet harmony
In Days of Yore
Rain seems to fall now so heavily.
Memories, we lock behind doors.
Finding our way through a melody
In Days of Yore
There was a time when we had time to waste,
dancing around through the score.
Days carried on, but I still see your face
In Days of Yore
When you are lonely just follow me;
days can grow grey and unsure.
Remember the music and summer breeze
In Days of Yore

All Is Well

I put on my cheap makeup
Pretty colours of orange and brown
I think of ways to say
You can't stick around
I dance around to old country music
I tell myself each day is anew
I'm tryna figure out how to say
I might not love you
It's so hard to say I love you
But so much harder to say I don't
So the lipstick left on the mirror reads,
"Lover so long".
All is well but we're not.
All is well but we're not.
I cook up Marilyn's recipe.
One dish, 'stead of two to serve.
I pour the Pinot in the plastic
to drown out all your words.
High frequencies of you ringing me.
Don't worry dear, your angel isn't me.
Put the needle on the record,
and linger on my poetry.
It's so hard to say I love you
But so much harder to say I don't
So the lipstick left on the mirror reads,
"Lover so long".
All is well but we're not.
All is well but we're not.
All is well but we're not.
All is well but we're not.

Empty Pools

Empty pools
I wish that I could swim away with you
White and blue
The tiles are rusted and there’s not much more to do
Cause we’re always wasting time
We’re always wasting time
Empty pools
You haven’t looked for months and now the year is through
And you’re so mad,
I disappoint, but in the morning I feel glad
Cause we’re always wasting time
We’re always wasting time
Can’t seem to get this crazy world off my mind
So we’re always wasting time
Empty pools
The streets are quiet and i’m waiting here for you
Now we’ve all grew,
And now we’re longing for the days when it was blue
Cause we’re always wasting time,
We’re always wasting time.

Let’s go watch the boys in the park
We’ll watch them as they skate around until dark
And maybe we’ll find something better to do,
Tomorrow
Let’s go to brunch and then we’ll rollerblade
I packed us some liquor for the lemonade
And maybe we’ll finally feel something new,
Tomorrow
Nothings ever good enough for you,
No, nothings ever good enough for you.
Here we are, another day is through,
And still nothing’s ever good enough for you.
Now I’m walking home alone,
And you’re not answering your phone,
But I still hear that pretty tune…
I’ll see you in the afternoon.

Pretty Thoughts

Used the hole in your backyard,
the sea salt and chemicals to wipe off my makeup.
Fall asleep on your bare chest.
Dream of driving off with Rivera and Ziggy Stardust.
Sitting on the silver moon
I reached up for the red balloon
Somewhere over Paris,
with my friends out on the terrace.
Dorothy says she has to go,
She fades and so the stones we throw.
Pay It No Mind, really
Lawman beating off her pretty.
It was just a dream,
But ain't it pretty to think so?
But It was just a dream....
You roll over and tell me,
I sing too many showtunes and sad songs for one man.
So I steam my best suit,
And run, and run, and run
to a planet made of my own hands.
Sitting by the foil sea,
I sing as Edie turns to me.
"Baby, wear your flowers even as the father scowls..."
Swimming with my friends all day
though empty pools will come what may.
Painting on a shadow
for I've misplaced my bravado.
it was just a dream..
But ain't it pretty to think so?
But It was just a dream...
And as I wake,
I think to myself..
'Ain't it nice we wanna smell like flowers?'
But for some reason I can't be as a rose
in a garden of men... I've lost my power.
it was just a dream
But ain't it pretty to think so?
It was just a dream,
and I was pretty.
It was just a dream...
Oh pity!
