Dancing on Sinking Sand  

I watch the sunrise
Burning on the ocean,
The dolphin curve of the waves.
I watch your face
Staring out of the window,
And I am dancing, dancing, dancing
On sinking sand.

How can you expect,
Long hours not to change us?
How do you know
What the next day will bring?
With lashing rain,
And radiant sunshine,
I’m dancing, dancing, dancing
On sinking sand.

I watch the sunrise...

How can you think,
That minutes are worth nothing?
How can you tell what the
Right time will be.
When storms are raging in torrents about us
I’m dancing, dancing, dancing
On sinking sand.

I watch the sunrise...

Lets Leave This Town

She came to me, on a full moon night,
She came to my window, shadows in the light
O come with me, my love,
Let's leave this town, my love,
We'll see this town no more.

She rode her horse, with no saddle on,
She had her cloak, wrapped around her form,
O come with me, my love,
Let's leave this town, my love,
We'll see this town no more.

I gave her my coat, 'gainst the wind so raw,The freezing wind, sang of ice and snow.
O come with me, my love,
Let's leave this town, my love,
We'll see this town no more.

We rode so far, sunraise came so late,
Dark night's retreat, with the fear and hate.
O come with me, my love,
Let's leave this town, my love,
We'll see this town no more.

In the cold grey morn, my love had gone,
Leaving her cloak, heaped upon the floor.
O come with me, my love,
Let's leave this town, my love,
We'll see this town no more.

Come the Wind

Come the wind may never again blow,
As now it blows for us
The stars, may never shine again, shine,
As now they shine for us.
And you must crush the love,
The love that’s in your heart,
And I the love in mine,
The love that’s in your heart,
And I the love in mine.


Long before October returns,
Seas of blood will part us,
Face to face our kindred stand
Forgetting the earth that bore them.

Come the wind may never again blow…

Next October we will see
Ambition rule oe'r love,
Dread not death because the hand
That brings it may be mine.

Come the wind may never again blow…
