NO SMALL MANGO
What�s happening to me?
I�m awake but I can�t see
I�m on my way to somewhere
Slowly going there
And I�m digging through my dreams
Deciding what to keep
�Cause what�s been given me
Is no small mango

I sang a simple prayer
Just gave it to the air
And suddenly you�re there
Everywhere
And I�m holding these babies
So charmed and heavenly
Two angels sent to me
No small mango.

Those candles in your eyes
Very nearly died
But we get another try
And that�s no small mango.
Now what if it is right
That there�s only this one life
Well I�m grateful for the bite
Of no small mango
Yeah, even if it�s right
That there�s only this one life
Oh really taste that bite
No small mango
No small mango
No small mango.

THROWING IT ALL AWAY
I�m dancing to music you sang me that evening
Once more round the table before I�ll be leaving
You�ve given me more than I�ve bargained for
And I can�t keep it here, so I�m throwing it all away.

I still can remember out on the volcano
I thought that I knew you despite what they said
Whenever you held me I hoped we could change it
The truth hurts so much I can practically taste it
And I can�t bear to ask again.

chorus

Listening to you I thought we�d be better
You�re so good at talking I began to believe
That maybe I�d save you or you could save me.

Now stop all your talking, I�m ready for walking
Before you are through I will slip out the back
Morning is coming, I�m too tired for running
But don�t you once think that I�m taking this light
For you alone can find it, oh I can�t provide it
And I�m aching it didn�t turn out right.

chorus

I wouldn�t want to save it
so I�m throwing it all away
Away.

GOING TO SEE THE CHINAMAN
It�s been a long time
Running through the sugarcane
Going to see the chinaman
Oh my sister, do you remember?
He showed us tadpoles in his garden

He cut us sugarcane to chew on
He made a pair of sandals for you
Do you remember?

All this in Africa
So much smaller then
Could we make our way back to Oyster Bay
And find everything how it was back then?

Sister born in Africa
Tell me is it in your blood?
First words to me just a baby in Swahili
I remember it well.
And Lloyd built the wooden ship Rebecca
And we sailed those trees out to sea
Anna cried �malaika� for Jessie
Do you remember?

I�m going swimming in the Indian Ocean
I know when the tide�s just right to find some shells
And there�s a place near here we can dig for clay
Do you remember where?
Oh my sister, do you remember? I remember it well.

chorus

I�m sure the sun still comes up out of the ocean
and I�m sure they still sell peanuts on the corner
and I�m sure the moon hangs low over Kilimanjaro
Do you remember? Do you remember? Do you remember?

APOLOGY
I know this is not something that you asked for
All this silence and these redirected glances
I am balanced on the edge of forgiveness
Don�t tell me that there are no second chances.

Standing in the shadow i don�t see you
Like I woke up in a pretty strange dream
And I am shouting out apologies to a past that cannot
hear from me, over a distance wider than the sea.

And where are we going with this one?
Why don�t we try to dance past any bitterness
and madness, I�ve been paralyzed by sadness
And I think it�s time we gave our souls a rest.

Am I the kind of person you could talk to?
One whose secrets you�d believe?
Or will you always tend to doubt the words
that tumble from my mouth
Could I really be that difficult to read?

chorus

Here�s to all the changes that we�ve been through
Here�s to where we are right now
Oh but would we even try if we found out we could fly
You know it�s always so much easier to run.

HURRICANE
Even though it�s early evening
I can see you feel like sleeping
Go under with the day
There�s a growing wall on the horizon
I�m trying not to feel so frightened
As I watch you slip away.

This storm comes like the ocean falling
There�s rain across my window pounding
Won�t it wash away my fear
Well I brace myself the wind is howling
I never felt so much like shouting
But I don�t want anyone to hear.

You took me from my wilderness
When you came to let me in
And I�m still trying to get a grasp on
All the people I have been.
Back into my haunted memory
I never can be sure what sends me
Though I don�t intend to stay
By your side I�m feeling stronger
I know that I�ll be with you longer
Than any ghost that�s in my way.

chorus

Seems my mind is always racing
Sleep it comes as no escaping
Dreams like a hurricane
I long to join you in your slumber
Find comfort underneath the cover
And get out of the rain.
I�m coming in from the rain
I�m getting out of the rain

FRESH RAIN
I see that it is raining and that�s alright with me
I feel the sweet fresh rain falling down on me. I�m clean.
There�s no fighting back the sky has opened
Taking me downstream, my heart is flooded, I am choking
but that�s alright with me.
Fresh rain, wash me, heal me, I am clean.

I feel that you are aching and if I�m not mistaken
It�s because of me, no that couldn�t be.
For I am holding up a mirror and a bucket full of rain
See yourself in me, very carefully, there, very clearly.
Fresh rain, wash me, heal me, I am clean.

There was a morning when I woke up in a panic
I was certain you had poisoned me.
In all that bitterness I laid the blame
and it came right back at me, now my soul can see.

Don�t you see that it is raining you deserve to drink it up
But I didn�t bring your cup
If you feel like you could use my hands I will hold them up
Let us drink this in.
Fresh rain, wash me, heal me, hold me, carry me,
wash me, heal me, I am clean.

KAREN�S SONG
Karen came to me we had ten years to wait
And her heart was so full I was afraid it might break
When I�m out of the city she said I think I might fly
But when I am there I can�t even try.

And LA�s no place for the ones who want wings
The city of angels holds none of these things
Your brother knew this when he rode out to sea
He said I ain�t coming back, please don�t wait for me.

Well your mama looked older than ever before
Caught in the midst of that deafening fall
And the empty glass bottles lined the hall to the tomb
But the angel you knew had soared from the room.

The big western sky looks empty but I believe
It�s swimming with angels and in the company of these
I�ve heard the ragged singing of horses lost at sea.

Well the house has been painted and the garden�s gone to seed
Would you be overwhelmed if I had to leave?
With all of these thing that come in on the waves
We�ve been given the chance to break the chain.

FIRST KISS
I went walking down the road saw all the people that I know
But I�d give anything to see your face.
Hey darlin� where the hell you been?
See I�ve been missing my true friend
and I�ve been drinking coffee all alone.

And I will never walk away from this
When everytime it feels just like the very first kiss.

And when you look at me with one eye slightly closed
I feel a trembling down into my toes
And all the time I want to say
Thank you for asking me to stay
And by the way I love you more with every passing day.

chorus

I never thought that love would be this fine
I�m so amazed that it gets better all the time.
�Cause every time you smile
And get those lines around your eyes
I know I�m hanging on forever on this wild ride.

SMILIN�
There he goes, he�s gonna hide again
He�s too inside now to be your friend
But he knows that�s not how it is in the end.
He comes out smilin�, i-no-hey and smiles
Inside, outside stretching over miles.
And only you can make it right
In the day of the life of this man
And only you�ve got the sight to let me be just who I am.

So if you see me there tied up in knots
Remind me �fore I have forgot
The fountain of youth in one steep draught
Is not feeling guilty when you�re not.

And comes out smilin�, i-no-hey and smiles
Inside, outside stretching over miles
I say, hey there, who are you?
Can you show me something new?
If you will try, you know I�ll get through, be out smilin�.
He comes out smilin�, i-no-hey, inside, outside, everyday
He knows he�s not trapped inside that way.
