Two Weeks 04:19
lyrics

You're my cold mountain high You're my desert hot and dry But I'm on this long highway And I know I'm just a phone call away But this bed it feels so cold So don't you go and put our love on hold It's only two weeks and I'm coming home to you Two weeks, I'll be back in the door Two weeks and I'll be back home to you Two weeks I'll be back in the door Playing to a dining crowd Boss man says you're way too loud Close my eyes and drift away I can still hear the knives hitting plates Wonder what I'm doing here One week down, one more to go I'm getting near It's only one week and I'm coming home to you One week, I'll be back in the door One week and I'll be back home to you One week I'll be back in the door Heavy head and weary eyes Sun is nearly on the rise Ninety miles and I'll hit town I wanna catch you in your morning gown I can't wait to see your face I can't wait to feel your warm embrace It's only two hours and I'm coming home to you Two hours, I'll be back in the door Two hours and I'll be back home to you Two hours I'll be back in the door

Can't Call It Home 04:22
lyrics

Never thought I'd be back here again I swore last time it would be the end No-ones left here that I still know So many memories, I still can't call it home I've seen the trees grow, till they blew down Sometimes I wish that wind would blow down this town A couple comes, a couple goes Left to wonder where their love did go I swore last time it would be the end You won't see me in this town again Lost my heart to a local girl We got out so I could stay with her Now my folks have gone with the winds of change Ain't nothin' left here that could make me stay I swore last time it would be the end You won't see me in this town again I've seen the trees grow, till they blew down Sometimes I wish that wind would blow down this town A couple comes, a couple goes Left to wonder where their love did go I swore last time it would be the end You won't see me in this town again I swore last time it would be the end You won't see me in this town again

I Will Not Question You Again 03:55
lyrics

You told me not to climb that high But I did and I fell You told me not to bite the hand that feeds But I did and I starved I will not question you again If I swam so far I might go under And I did and I drowned But you could breathe me back to life And you did and I lived I will not question you again I will not ask of you my friend I will not make you mother me You've done enough for me to see In the light a warm familiar voice And I knew it was you You said I still had much to give So now I know and I will I will not question you again I will not ask of you my friend I will not make you mother me You've done enough for me to see

Desert Flower Woman 03:01
lyrics
buy track
Desert flower woman and a yellow full moon Rabbit skin loin cloth silver-feather shoes Dancin' on the riverstone Rhythm of the night Under the waterfall by the fire Smell that desert flower hangin' in the air Fills my senses, scents her hair See her skin shimmering with spray Kangaroo pelts on blood red clay Stars cuttin' through the blanket of night Like the whites of her eyes in the firelight Shadows on the riverstone Dancin' by the fire Spray from the waterfall in my eyes Desert flower woman she came to me Head of henna-honey flowin' in the breeze Dancin' on the riverstone Rhythm of the night Spray from the waterfall sure feels nice Dancin' on the riverstone Rhythm of the night Primitive heartbeat, tribal child Desert flower woman Desert flower woman Desert flower woman Desert flower woman

Behind Your Walls 05:23
lyrics
buy track
You had to stop yourself from sinkin' You carried more than just your pride You couldn't help but keep on thinkin' Why were you so unfairly trialled No matter how hard they listen They talk too much to realize You broke the cup that runneth over To stop reminding you of lies Now the thought of starting over Does not appeal to you at all You think about someone to hold you Then cracks appear within your walls You keep it all so closely guarded No One will ever know your truths Your tragedy is you could shine Instead you're fadin' blue You sought no comfort in a bottle You didn't lean upon a friend You keep on tryin' to find a meaning Still your pain won't end No matter how hard they listen They talk too much to realize You broke the cup that runneth over To stop reminding you of lies
