Bind Up My Life

One Last Look
One last look at a butter cream sun;
As it rises in a rosy red sky�
And the glories all covered in dew
Just waiting for the butterflies,

Wind howling on a moonless night;
Followed closely by the lone reply
Fallen whisper like a scarlet leaf
Haunting echo of a last goodbye;

Boney fingers to the heavens rise;
Just praying for one more day
To see the ladies in their amber hues
And the men who pass them on their way;

See the twinkling of city lights
Flowers dripping from window bays
Keep it handy in your picture book
It gets you through it on those frightful days

Summer�s over and Fall is on His way
See him dancing in the tall top trees
To the rhythm of the cornfield play
Hear him laughing on the frosty breeze�

Wind howling on a moonless night;
Followed closely by the lone reply
Fallen whisper like a scarlet leaf
Haunting echo of a last goodbye�.
Take My Hand
Take my hand,
I feel you flowing through me;
Take my hand,
Steal me away,
To a land
Where there�s no sorrow;
Make me home,
And settle me.

For I am worn
And I am weary;
An empty vessel,
On a stormy sea
I hear the rain
Outside it�s falling
Make me home
And anchor me.

Fill up these eyes
To shine with your reflection;
Fill up this hole
Where a heart should be;
Fill up this soul
With the heat of all your passion;
Make me home,
And settle me.
Groping in the darkness
Something for to feel
Warm familiar surfaces
A waking dream
Come real

Well it�s hell
Among the shadowlands
Between the earth and sky
Sorry, sad-faced shadowlands
Looking up
Asking why?

Scat
From a black cat, wandering
Scat
From a black cat, wondering
Scat
From a black cat, pondering
And sitting on the side of the road�..

Skat
Hungry, half-eaten sentences
Come stumbling
To their knees
Searching for a forest
Lost among the trees

So fly
My little butterfly
On wings of gold and blue
And tango in the breezes
While I take a look at you.

Just scat
From a black cat, wandering
Scat
From a black cat, wondering
Scat
From a black cat, pondering
And sitting on the side of the road�
