Lonesome 04:12
All I want for you to do Is pick up the phone and call through I'm feeling lonely and I'm missing you Just want to hear your voice, want to hear your voice in my ear This winters got me feeling low the wind cuts right down to the bone it's dark outside and cold in my room Just wanna see your face, wanna see your face, wanna see it soon All that I long for is for you to show up at my door to say goodnight, sweet dreams and sleep tight But all I have of you here is a photo, memories and your songs in my ears they keep you from disappearing I know that you are on the road you're traveling in between your shows the windows down, the wind is in your hair I know that it is warm, I know that it is warm, it's summer there Soon enough I will see you sit tight, grit my teeth and get through these cold short days that feel oh so long it's hard to see the light, hard to see the light, when you're lonesome All that I long for is for you to show up at my door to say goodnight, sweet dreams and sleep tight But all I have of you here is a photo, memories and your songs in my ears they keep you from disappearing

Sparrow 03:11
Once upon a not so long ago, lived a little restless sparrow He flew over mountains and he flew over seas trying to understand and trying to find peace There's something about flying up hight the perspective that you get when you are in the sky but he longed to walk on land, he longed to understand why he was born a sparrow and not born a man He closes his eyes tightly and he hopes that the wind will take him to a place where he has never been But he don't know how lucky he is what man would give up for a chance to have his wings this little sparrow well he will find peace for to live is to fly, for to live is to fly

Mittens 03:28
I gaze outside my window, look up at the sky it's gloomy, clouds surrounding, rain, no sunshine in sight all the trees have let go of their very own leaves the relentless wind has blown and left no colour to be seen and winter has now come to me Fall was so beautiful for as long as it was here one hundred shades of autumn dancing down from the tallest trees the sun came out to say don't worry, I haven't gone away I am still here I just come out every other day And winter has now come to me Now it's coats and tuques and scarfs and mittens for my little hands all the things from keeping all my extremities freezing umbrellas and raincoats and all I wish is I had a boat to sail away out of here and wind up in Hawaii. Due to lack of funds my dreams will slowly come undone I will have to make the most of having wintery fun like splashing in the puddles with my gumboots on curling up in my warm bed when the long day is done cos winter has now come to me I will visit all my friends and drink a lot of tea play boardgames by an open fire, make the most delicious dinner let the snowflakes fall upon my cheeks as it gets much colder and maybe even cuddle into a certain others shoulder cos winter has now come to me Now it's coats and tuques and scarfs and mittens for my little hands all the things from keeping all my extremities freezing umbrellas and raincoats and all I wish is I had a boat to sail away out of here and wind up in Hawaii. Please, won't you take me to Hawaii.

Winter Wind 03:50
Winter had truly come, as the clouds concealed the sun the bitter cold cut through, that bitterness was truth Of all the trees stripped bare, among them I stood there layers torn away, but the winter wind that came that day And I stood rooted to the ground, as a heavy fog came down and lay weighted in my chest, and sunk the brutal truth that this season confessed. For the winter wind blows across land and sea leaving storms in its wake and shaking leaves from the trees it hides behind the promise of the sun to conceal the damage that its done The frost it clung to me, and left me to choice but to see that this season seeps in deep, and leaves scars that will always keep but the renewal that Spring can bring, is the hope to which I cling that this coldness fades away, and the winter wind will stay at bay For the winter wind blows across land and sea leaving stoms in its wake and shaking leaves from the trees it hides behind the promise of the sun to conceal the damage that its done
