Desert Sky 05:46
lyrics

Desert Sky A rush of water hurrying by My forever wandering My forever shifting feet My fingers making little streams Of little improprieties I’ve been no service to my body I’ve lived in my own thinking I never filled my eyes to see But if I would look up I will find the desert sky I can bend as far as the moon How I allow this wondrous while And all I would live for Oh out there, my dance of lights I will bathe in the heart of its truth Oh the silence fills me, stills me Inside Guide is coming from the moonlight It’s dancing on the water Yeah, it’s living it up for me Ah, unraveling all my weirdness Ah, my peculiarities It knows every little cry coming Coming from my body It’s showing me love honestly Oh if I would look up ….. Oh the silence chills me, fills me ….. And the laughter’s roaring by And the dance is lit inside I’m drawn by the cool light Oh if I would look up ….. Oh the silence chills me, fills me ….. As far as the moon I will bend as far as the moon © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall

Simplify Burn out this sullen hour It’s soaked in blue You’re wanting for something more The gifts are few Come away, watch that you Don’t fall too hard Simplify when you hurt too much And don’t hide from all that could be Simplify your troubles When, ah, you are down And don’t hide from all that could be Simplify your troubles When, ah, you are down Hold your mind to something good Let good find you Come away, watch that you Don’t fall too hard Simplify when you hurt too much And don’t hide from all that could be Simplify your troubles When, ah, you are down Come away, watch that you Don’t fall too hard Simplify your troubles When, ah, you are down © P.A.

Arrived 04:41
lyrics

Arrived I never knew Raw from tame Am I here too soon A splatter of pain I’m locked in my room A senseless clue Half-way home to me A nameless beast Drawn out of me Oh the truth has arrived By way of loving you Waited until Wild is still So afraid to hold Like a newborn I let you unfold me A peculiar place Every turn a feast A mindful embrace I ache in my release Oh the truth has arrived By way of loving you A hollowed clue Half-way home to me A shaken beast Drawn out of me Oh the truth has arrived By way of loving you © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall

Succumb 04:22
lyrics
buy track
Succumb Strolling down an untraveled path where a cool nature will Come be with me Settling my mind in a casual conversation, yeah, Of my destiny I’m in a smooth rhythm And there’s some talk of life And my worries find an alibi I don’t have to do more than this to be alive The more I’m into you Ah, the more I succumb to you Standing where my weight leaves a dent into the naked sand To say that I’m here I slip into your hands, and reach right into the noble land Of life’s mysteries I’m in a smooth rhythm And there’s some talk of life And my worries find an alibi I don’t have to do more than this, yeah, to survive The more I’m into you Ah, the more I succumb to you When the sun trips into its rays When the grass grows right up to space When the fireflies choose to live in cells When the torrents wipe away all the bad And send sadness to hell The more I’m into you Ah, the more I succumb to you The more I’m into you Ah, the more I succumb to you © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall

So Much I Still Recall 04:20
lyrics
buy track
So Much I Still Recall When my foot has been set down And words have left my once secured mouth The shattering air will only shame the room Once the tears have lost their fight My senses seeking a quiet corner Where all the aches and pains turn inside out So much I still recall The wonder days and warm night falls But now I’m tired And I can’t breathe I’ve done this jagged world The good of all we had Will never undo the bad And now you watch me As I watch you How the door slams to end all When the moment’s set and done A state of blankness breaks the silence These trembling walls explode to let us out © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall

Slide 04:50
lyrics
buy track
Slide I might as well slide With all that's going by, To take me into Want a break from this haze for awhile Get me out of my mind What to choose if all I may Drown in the eyes that say You need me to stay What I need if all I may Lie in the arms that make Me feel loved in any way I cry until dawn Gives me another day, Another way, way out I'm streaming blind Let no one near my secret place, my nullified life What to choose if all I may Drown in the eyes that say You need me to stay What I need if all I may Lie in the arms that make Me feel loved in any way Want a break from this craze for awhile Get me out of my mind And now the swirl of the air bears down The cold clings to the ground What time has for living Will I chance it now Oh time gives, all the changes now What to choose if you let me Drown in the eyes that say You need me to stay What I need if you let me Lie in the arms that make Me feel loved in any way © P.A.

Look On To You 05:40
lyrics

Look On to You The water waits in waves Moving with the daylight Inviting me to see The wind plays its part in tune Led by the wisdom moon And I am here to muse I am the part that’s been missing the cue An undeniable error that I am just waking up to As I realize what I’m given is more than I ever will use I look on to you A weary wind has its moans And sweet water’s been known to drown I’m here in the clearest of views I love the eyes of my mother Bathing in her stirring gaze I wonder why I never knew I am the part that’s been missing the cue An undeniable error that I am just waking up to As I realize what I’m given is more than I ever will use I look on to you I am the part that’s been undeniably missing the cue An unpardonable error that I am just waking up to When all that is out there to breathe in To take a full part in and to give thanks to As I realize what I’m given is more than I ever will use I look on to you © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall

You Remain 04:21
lyrics
buy track
You Remain A simple light reflecting the silence in me Endless waves reacting I hold you in my guard indefinitely A drifter through a journey I close my eyes so I may learn to see You remain one gentle energy Whole world would say You relay your benevolence to me Defenseless I am made A still body's resting in the bed it needs Quietly unraveling All the twists and turns courageously A dreamer dares my senses Nothing of the useless left to feel You remain one gentle energy Whole world would say You relay your benevolence to me Defenseless I am made You remain my simple truth You remain my solitude You remain the silent one You still remain © P.A. Bouwens / C. Hall
