Savin all your honey For a rainy day All your doggon money Don't you let it slip away Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo Life is kinda funny Sometimes I wanna run away Run into the river Let it carry me away Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo Don't Should Yourself so constantly Don't be afraid, follow your heart Some call it God, some call it intuition, That thing that speaks to you when you listen That still small voice behind the noise, whispering "Listen to your beating heart" Amaranth and honey Laying in the sun all day Life is kind of funny Don't you let it slip away Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh

Agua es Vida 03:58
For the waters, I am, I am, I am. Reaching out my willowy arms Infuse you through and through Agua Es Vida Agua Es Vida Agua Es Vida Agua Es Vida Feel our current... supple and strong Before long your stubborn shores will crumble and fall Into the river Carry you home To the ocean where we all came from Agua Es Vida Fenaki dhiri ulhumey Sheng huo yuan yu shui Mni wiconi Almiyaah a haaya Agua Es vida La rivière t'appelle We are a mighty wave Suis-la tu verras We are a mighty wave

Mosquito 04:09
Old river break up my shores I surrender No more resistance will you find in me I will bend and breathe Like the pines swayed in that thunderous storm The night we discovered How simple it can be We have only to love Inviting the vines to overtake us Break up our bark and make us green again Pollen of pine will make us stronger We drunk it down with honey wine And for a while we were fine Confusion... Mosquito... Then we awoke covered in the diamonds of A sun-freckled forest floor On a bed of the limbs torn by the storm the night before we learned how to love

You wrote in your last letter Before you took off to outer space "Every time I close my eyes I see your face" It's been a long while now, honey, You've been up there where the air's so thin I've been alone so long, I'm not sure that I exist Is any of this getting through to you? Can you hear me now? It's so hard to get through to you On this future telephone The universe keeps on expanding And the space between us grows cold I dream you finally come home But I have grown too old My skin doesn't seem like my own And the feeling of your touch is a memory I lost log ago But I hold onto your words You told me: "there is no time or space in love" Is this true? I've been trying to get through to you On this future telephone. But the message became muddled Somewhere out passing by the moon And all their words were lost in pixelation

It was an old river, and wide And I gave it my life I danced the whole masquerade And if I never return I will not regret the choice I made To breathe the water in and drown After the fire I ran through the night Til I came to the river's shore There I fell to Earth and cried A burned and broken man was I I'd never felt so utterly alone And then the river called my name "Come let me hold you" Her voice a golden thread pulling me towards the mystery Suddenly the voice was clear: Time to let go, go on home, throw my bones into this Old river Old river Old river and wide
