I know how it feels when the river runs dry But the river's still there Don't you cry cry cry The river's still there and it feels everything And the river hears your voice when you sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing I know how it feels when the sun leaves the sky But the sun is still there Don't you cry cry cry Night may bite and the wind may sting But the sun can hear your voice when you sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing I know how it feels when your true love dies But your love is still there Don't you cry cry cry Your love is still there and feels everything And your love can hear your voice when you sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing sing... I know how it feels I know how it feels I know how it feels when the river runs dry I know how it feels I know how it feels I know how it feels when the sun leaves the sky I know I know I know I know

What could I do for you? Sing the way you want me to Touch the keys Like you used to The way you move through me Is the greatest thing you can do for me And I hold my hands out And I reach myself in And I feel you Shake my skin And I play the way you move me And I sing the way you move me to Love the way you move me It's awfully nice of you

It comes back, you know The you that's missing Your soul will show What you are wishing If you don't know Then ask a question And life will show A new direction And I feel so Fulfilling, thrilling To finally know That I am living And I feel so And I feel so And I feel so

Innisfree 01:08
"Lake Isle of Innisfree" by William Butler Yeats (1888) I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree, And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles made; Nine bean rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee, And live alone in the bee loud glade. And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow, Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings; There midnight's all a glimmer, and noon a purple glow, And evening full of the linnet's wings. I will arise and go now, for always night and day I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore; While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey, I hear it in the deep heart's core.

Your Oceans 02:29
I would fall I would fall I would fall like rain I would fall like rain In a thousand pieces in each moment I would fall I would fall like rain I would fall like rain From your clouds into your oceans I would fall My whole life could be pain In motion And that would be That would be okay Cuz I would fall like rain From your clouds into your oceans I would fall I would fall like rain, yes I would fall like rain In a thousand pieces in each moment I would fall I would fall like rain And my whole life could be pain In motion

Naked & Bare 01:44
I went to the tall tree / you weren't there I climbed the tall tree / naked & bare I told the tall tree / everything true My beautiful secrets / did not wait for you I went to the city / you weren't there I walked the city / naked & bare I sang in the city / everything true My beautiful singing / did not wait for you I went to the water / you weren't there I entered the water / naked & bare I cried in the water for / everything true My beautiful tears / did not wait for you I went to my bedside / you weren't there I knelt by my bedside / naked & bare I prayed at my bedside for / everything true My beautiful prayer / did not wait for you

Paper Towels 01:23
I'm just paper towels Don't sweat my existence I live for your outpour I soak it all up I like you much better The more that you're wetter I let you spread through me I drink from your cup I'm wet and you're dry now We're done, you throw me out I'm just paper towels And I'm all used up Don't sweat my existence I'm wet with experience I carry your essence In the fibers of my being Cuz I'm paper towels! Absorbing completely Now I know you deeply It's your song I sing Giving's receiving Needing is fleeting And loving means leaving For most everything
