Eyes of Olde 04:08
Yeux de l'Ancien (Eyes of the Olde) Winding roads and cobbled streets Crooked dusty windows, iron railings round the trees Vintage cars, a horse and cart Smoke escapes a chimney stack beneath a sky of stars Over time, across the years that have been mined What's left adorns the heart and soul like arms of thorns Once removed, pain is all that can remain Above the spire, a crescent moon Far below a Fosser digs and sings a sombre tune Wooden benches, weathered graves Lives are taken, some are saved, like puddles in the rain All things change Just when you get used to it, the world is rearranged It's okay to be afraid, sometimes we lose our way With fear removed Love is all that can remain Spiral stairs and candle light Photographs and leather books lay silently at night Embers glow beneath the coal Time it passes slowly here, like rivers in the snow Over time, across the years that have been mined What's left adorns the heart and soul like arms of thorns Once removed, pain is all that can remain Waning light and tired eyes Distant past in memories bear heavy on the mind A deeper need of love in sight When future is unwritten, present choices must be right All things change Just when you get used to it, the world is rearranged It's okay to be afraid, sometimes we lose our way With fear removed, love is all that grows Over time, across the years that have been mined What's left adorns the heart and soul like arms of thorns Once removed, pain is all that can remain

Signal Fires 06:26
Write it in another letter - let me read your love Oh just say it in the words I hope you're thinking of And if it is another dream please don't wake me up Oh say it in a whisper, just say it's love See you looking at me with twilight angelic eyes Feel you breathe against, in harmony I am hypnotized Then I hear you whisper love on the breeze I'm paralyzed As I awake again the dream escapes, the pain begins Oh no, you don't ever think of The consequence of actions you make So you don't show tendrils or fronds Just don't unearth the roots that we made, love... Pay a little more attention to the one's you love Just say it in the words they hope you're thinking of And if there ever is a signal things are all messed up Then give yourself a fucking shake and give them your love today Oh no, you don't ever think of The consequence of actions you make So you don't show tendrils or fronds Just don't unearth the roots that we made Oh no, you don't ever think of The consequence of actions in time So you don't see when things aren't right You never see the warning signs You miss all the signal fires They disappear...

See her smile, arms around me Feel her warmth, shine around me Do you know love? Coz if you want to You can call, anytime you Feel lonely or happy and just want to I can't find, the words to tell her Im scared to say, how I feel coz You don't know, how long I've waited For your love, the years and patience I feel like running yeah, I'd run away with you Feel I'm falling, think I'd fall for you She could love the world Her love is in my thoughts Oh deep is not the word But deep is how I fall The angel in her calls Hear her cry, she tries to hide All this pain, I know what it feels like Do you know love? Have you got someone? Or have you lost the will to find one? Coz you can call me, anytime you feel Feel lonely or, if you feel something for me or Feel like shining on... coz love it shines like gold All you got to do is try Keep pushing for a better life It's all a journey til the day we die I only wanna share my time
