2. I Hung My Head4:40

   Letra

   Early one morning with time to kill I borrowed jeb's rifle and sat on the hill I saw a lone rider crossing the plain I drew a bread on him to practice my aim My brother's rifle went off in my hand A shot rang out across the land The horse he kept running the rider was dead I hung my head i hung my head I set off running to wake from the dream My brother's rifle went into the stream I kept on running into the salt lands And that's where they found me, my head in my hands The sheriff he asked me "why had i run" Then it came to me just what i had done And all for no reason, just one piece of lead I hung my head, i hung my head Here in the courthouse, the whole town is there I see the judge high up in his chair "explain to the courtroom what went through your mind And we'll ask the jury what verdict they find" I said "i felt the power of death over life I orphaned his children i widowed his wife I beg their forgiveness i wish i was dead" I hung my head, i hung my head Early one morning with time to kill I see the gallows up on the hill And out in the distance a trick of the brain I see a lone rider crossing the plain He's come to fetch me to see what they done We'll ride together til kingdom come I pray for god's mercy for soon i'll be dead I hung my head, i hung my head
3. Let Your Soul Be Your Pilot6:41

   Letra

   When you're down and they're counting When your secrets all found out When your troubles take to mounting When the map you have leads you to doubt When there's no information And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you He'll guide you well When the doctors failed to heal you When no medicine chest can make you well When no counsel leads to comfort When there are no more lies they can tell No more useless information And the compass spins The compass spins between heaven and hell Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you He'll guide you well And your eyes turn towards the window pane To the lights upon the hill The distance seems so strange to you now And the dark room seems so still Let your pain be my sorrow Let your tears be my tears too Let your courage be my model That the north you find will be true When there's no more useless information And the compass turns to nowhere that you know well Let your soul be your pilot Let your soul guide you Let your soul guide you Let your soul guide you upon your way
4. I Was Brought To My Senses5:48

   Letra

   Alone with my thoughts this evening I walked on the banks of tyne I wondered how i could win you Or if i could make you mine Or if i could make you mine The wind it was so insistent With tales of a stormy south But when i spied two birds in a sycamore tree There came a dryness in my mouth Came a dryness in my mouth For then without rhyme or reason The two birds did rise up to fly And where the two birds were flying I swear i saw you and i I swear i saw you and i I walked out this morning It was like a veil had been removed from before my eyes For the first time i saw the work of heaven In the line where the hills had been married to the sky And all around me every blade of singing grass Was calling out your name and that our love would always last And inside every turning leaf Is the pattern of an older tree The shape of our future The shape of all our history And out of the confusion Where the river meets the sea Came things i'd never seen Things i'd never seen I was brought to my senses I was blind but now that i can see Every signpost in nature Said you belong to me I know it's true It's written in a sky as blue As blue as your eyes, as blue as your eyes If nature's red in tooth and claw Like winter's freeze and summer's thaw The wounds she gave me Were the wounds that would heal me And we'd be like the moon and sun And when our courtly dance had run Its course across the sky Then together we would lie And out of the confusion Where the river meets the sea Something new would arrive Something better would arrive I was brought to my senses I was blind but now that i can see Every signpost in nature Said you belong to me
5. You Still Touch Me3:46

   Letra

   Another night finds me alone In my dreams You still touch me Your picture by my telephone In that smile You still thrill me Now if i sleep i sleep here alone In my bed tonight You still haunt me And if i'm falling I'm falling like a stone In my nightmares You still hold me And after all that we've been through Now i'm wondering If you still blame me If only half of this was true That you believe of me You still shame me Dark rain will fall until i see your face I close my eyes I seem to hear the raindrops saying You won't come back You still touch me And when i'm sick at heart and low In my prayers You still heal me When i'm so sure this isn't so In my complacency You still shake me I wonder if you feel the same way as i do And you'd come back You still touch me Another night finds me alone In my bed tonight You still haunt me You still hold me You still touch me
6. I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying3:56
7. All Four Seasons4:28

   Letra

   With her smile as sweet as a warm wind in summer She's got me flying like a bird in a bright june sky And then just when she thinks that i've got her number Brings me down to the ground with her wintry eye That's my baby She can be all four seasons in one day And when the nighttime comes with no interference To our warm summer love with all its charms But like a thoroughbred horse she can turn on a sixpence And i find that i'm back in mistress winter's arms That's my baby She can be all four seasons in one day How will i know? How can i tell? Which side of the bed she takes when the day begins She can be kind She can be cruel She's got me guessing like a game show fool She can change her mind like she changes her sweaters From one minute to the next it's hard to tell She blows hot and cold just like stormy weather She's my gift from the lord or a fiend from hell That's my baby She can be all four seasons in one day Watching the weatherman's been no good at all Winter, spring, summer, i'm bound for a fall There are no long term predictions for my baby She can be all four seasons in one day How will i know? How can i tell? Which side of the bed she takes when the day begins She can be kind She can be cruel She's got me guessing like a game show fool If it's a sunny day i take my umbrella Just in case the raindrops start to fall You could say that i'm just a cautious fellow I don't want to be caught in a sudden squall That's my baby She can be all four seasons in one day That's my baby She can be all four seasons in one day
8. La Belle Dame Sans Regrets5:17

   Letra

   Dansons tu dis Et moi je suis Mes pas sont gauches Mes pieds tu fauches Je crains les sots Je cherche en vain les mots Pour m'expliquer ta vie alors Tu ments ma soeur Tu brises mon coeur Je pense tu sais Erreurs jamais J'ecoute tu parles Je ne comprends pas bien La belle dame sans regrets Je pleure tu ris Je chante tu cries Tu semes les graines D'un mauvais chéne Mon ble s'envole Tu en a ras le bol J'attends, toujours Mes cris sont sourds Tu ments, ma soeur Tu brises mon coeur Je pense, tu sais Erreurs, jamais J'ecoute, tu parles Je ne comprends pas bien La belle dame sans regrets
9. Valparaiso5:27

   Letra

   Chase the dog star Over the sea Home where my true love is waiting for me Rope the south wind Canvas the stars Harness the moonlight So she can safely go Round the cape horn to valparaiso Red the port light Starboard the green How will she know of the devils i've seen Cross in the sky star of the sea Under the moonlight there she can safely go Round the cape horn to valparaiso And every road i walked would take me down to the sea With every broken promise in my sack And every love would always send the ship of my heart Over the rolling sea If i should die And water's my grave She'll never know if i'm damned or i'm saved See the ghost fly over the sea Under the moonlight, there she can safely go Round the cape horn to valparaiso
10. Lithium Sunset2:38

    Letra

    Fill my eyes O lithium sunset And take this lonesome burden Of worry from my mind Take this heartache Of obsidian darkness And fold my darkness Into your yellow light I've been scattered i've been shattered I've been knocked out of the race But i'll get better I feel your light upon my face Heal my soul O lithium sunset And i'll ride the turning world Into another night See mercury falling...
