Fields in Glass
I see in glass windows
Fields in glass
Where the sun shines
On the broken and displaced
I say there’s a garden
There are fields
Where the sun shines
Fields in glass for everyone
I see revolving doorways
In the glass
Where the sun shines
Fields in glass for everyone
Someday I’ll go through the glass
And be free in the sun
City Rivers
Flowing through the tunnels
Like grains of polished sand
We turn the turbines
Power the pistons and
Every day we write our numbers
In the books and official ledgers
Flowing quiet, like a river
Singing gently of forever
Endless links to endless futures
Flowing forward
City rivers
Flowing quiet, like a river
Singing gently of forever
Endless links to endless futures
Flowing forward
City rivers
Say you haven’t heard our voices
Say you haven’t run out of choices
Girl, you know it’s yourself you’re deluding, hey now
The House Where Trouble Sleeps
Yes, I have come
Knocking at your door
Like the tide hits the shore
Seeking a sofa or the floor
I went astray
I fell off my horse
Knocked by some strange nocturnal force
Now I’m charting my new course
Believe me, I didn’t mean to wake you tonight
Believe me, I didn’t mean to disturb
The house where trouble sleeps
The house where trouble sleeps
I’ll stay the night
Leave in the morn
Let me sit by the fire
So I can get warm for a while
Rain hits the roof
Like pearls off a necklace
Falling down hard and reckless
As I lie here legless
Gales down the chimney
Like the howl of a spirit
How can you stand to hear it?
When anyone would fear it
Believe me, I didn’t mean to wake you tonight
Believe me, I didn’t mean to disturb
The house where trouble sleeps
The house where trouble sleeps
I’ll stay the night
Leave in the morn
Let me sit by the fire
So I can get warm for a while
