1. _ Like The Rain
Rain falls on my roof
Doing what it's meant to do
Forever lost to the ground
Hangs around in the sky
Then lets go when it's time
It doesn't mind coming down
To make the flowers grow
And make the rivers flow
It doesn't need to know
Where it's gonna land
No more making plans
I don't care where I stand
I'd rather be like the rain
To make the flowers grow
And make the rivers flow
It doesn't need to know
Where it's gonna land
I'm through making plans
I don't care where I stand
I'd rather be like the rain

3. _ Abalone Sky
Fall down on me like a feather
Floating on a breeze
Faintest whisper softest calling
I am on my knees
Lead me to the ledge and let me
Dangle from a limb
I just hang on hear me praying
Oh no not again
Look for heaven out the window
Abalone sky
Scattered pearly shimmer sending
Angels to my side
Helping hasten hope's return to
Free me from your grasp
I just hang on hear me praying
Oh this too shall pass
Scattered pearly shimmer sending
Angels to my side
Look for heaven out the window
Abalone sky

4. _ The Broken Girl
Storms gather in her head some days
All the happy is replaced
By the raindrops falling down her face
She's washed away
And every step she makes
Feels like a mistake
Don't watch her don't see her
But she'll never say a word
She's a broken girl
Same old song is playing in her brain
Always a sad refrain
And a melody runs through her veins
It's such a strain
Day after day
Sifting through remains
Don't watch her don't see her
But she'll never say a word
She's a broken girl
How'd she get so blue?
Who broke her in two
Many pieces
She will never find
Storms gather in her head sometimes
All the sun is pushed aside
By the clouds that creep into her mind
No reason no rhyme
And it ain't alright
But she looks for the light
Don't watch her don't see her
But she'll never say a word
She's a broken girl

5. _ Crows
I close my eyes and I listen
And try to get out of the way
But when I look out the window
I see his face
Is it him that I hear laughing
Taunting me making me blush
Acting like he knows my secrets
Why won't he hush
The crow in the yard is trying to tell me something
I see him out there trying to catch my eye
He's not the magnificent raven
He caws a much creepier caw
So comfortable there in his murder
Don't he know it all
So why won't he just give me the message
What's the worst news he could bring
And I make a mess when I'm guessing
About anything
The crow in the yard is trying to tell me something
I see him out there trying to catch my eye
Black as the night he shines like a light on nothing
Ain't no use in trying to hide
Oh child
Oh child
Oh child
I guess a crow in the yard
Is better than bats in the belfry

6. _ Goodbye to the Ground
Can I beg can I borrow
Can I steal one more tomorrow
The day is done another wasted
Why do I spend them all waiting
As the last
Shadow falls
Hear my prayer
Hear my call
What is here what was never
What will last what's gone forever
Twists and turns then it splinters
One day sweet next day bitter
Shifting sands
Underneath
Knock me off
Of my feet
Take a breath then take another
One last step take cover
Time is short unfurl my fingers
Shine a light where darkness lingers
All is lost
All is found
Say goodbye
To the ground

7. _ Easy In The Summertime
July nineteen-eighty-one
Alabama summer sun
Sissy got her fishing pole
Went down to the honey hole
Greasy fiery frying pan
Viola grabbed it with her hand
It burned so bad her skin it peeled
There I saw the truth revealed
Watermelon tastes so good
Bare feet on the cool hardwood
Summer dresses Nanny made
Cut off blue jeans torn and frayed
Swinging on the barnyard gate
It don't get dark till after eight
Run inside a kiss and hug
Wrapped up in my mama's love
Firefly whispered in my ear
She said let's get outta here
Fly down to the creek with me
There's something you gotta see
The stars come out and glow so bright
That's why I don't mess with morning light
'Cause they're the ones that soothe my soul
They make me wanna rock 'n roll
Easy in the summertime
Easy in the summertime
Easy in the summertime

8. _ Still This Side of Gone
If I don't move an inch if I don't make a sound
Maybe you'll forget and decide to stick around
Even though I know it's hopeless at best
I'm gonna fool myself
While you're still this side of gone
While you're still this side of gone
When did you decide I wasn't good enough
I wish I had known instead of getting my hopes up
They're hanging by a thread heavy in the air
But let them linger there
While you're still this side of gone
While you're still this side of gone
Stay a little longer
Till I'm a little stronger
And I can face the love-shaped hole you'll leave
Nothing I can say nothing I can do
I'm down on my knees calling on St. Jude
Maybe he will hear this broken-hearted prayer I pray
And send a miracle my way
While you're still this side of gone
While you're still this side of gone

9. _ When You Wake Up Feeling Bad
When you wake up feeling bad
Makes you wonder when the glad
Could have met and made friends with mad
When you wake up feeling bad
When you wake up feeling old
And your bones and your blood have turned cold
All the bread in the kitchen's grown mold
When you wake up feeling old
Where did it go
The joy you know
Just slipped away in the night
Where can you find
That little light
That kept all of your dreams alive
When you wake up feeling dead
Devil's demons inside your head
Can't even get out of the bed
When you wake up feeling dead
And old
And bad

10. _ The Starts & I (Mama’s Song)
The stars & I come out
And hang from up above
The stars shine down their light
I shine down my love
The perfect place to be
To watch you from afar
Do you ever see
How beautiful you are

11. _ Just Another Fool
Don't expect a twirl
She's not that kind of girl
She reserves the right to be sullen
In a purple mood
Yeah she still thinks it's cool
So don't even try to tell her nothin'
Ooh she ain't gonna let you in
Fool she ain't ever gonna break her
Rule and if you try you're just another
Fool
She can feel your stare
And knows you're standing there
Waiting for a chance to win her favor
But she just sips her wine
As you get in line
With all of the others trying to save her
Ooh she ain't gonna let you in
Fool she ain't ever gonna break her
Rule and if you try you're just another
Fool
I know it's hard to resist
The taste of her kiss
But remember this
She won't let down her guard no matter what you do
Ooh she ain't gonna let you in
Fool she ain't ever gonna break her
Rule and if you try you're just another
Fool

12. _ It’s Gonna Feel Good (When It Stops Hurting)
Everytime you add it up are you left wanting
Simple things you just can't seem to keep a hold on
'Cause everyone who said they'd come just left you waiting
All alone facing a door that never opened
Does the pain just get so bad it feels like curtains
Well hold on 'cause it's gonna feel good when it stops hurting
Does the blues have you convinced the end is certain
Well be strong 'cause it's gonna feel good when it stops hurting
Gonna feel so good
It's gonna feel good
It's gonna feel good
When it stops hurting
Has your life gone wrong so long that not much matters
Windows shuttered options closed high hopes scattered
Do the nights get darker longer are they cold
Summer chills then early frost as you get older
Does the pain just get so bad it feels like curtains
Well hold on 'cause it's gonna feel good when it stops hurting
If the blues has you convinced the end is certain
Be strong 'cause it's gonna feel good when it stops hurting
Gonna feel so good
It's gonna feel good
It's gonna feel good
When it stops hurting
Every prayer you've prayed or wish you've made
Is bound to come around one day but that's gonna be one day

13. _ Sorrow (Don’t Come Around)
I gotta turn you away so I can keep this hope alive
You're tapping on the window but I won't let you inside
Maybe you'll give up and find somebody else tonight
I draw the curtains say a prayer and turn out the light
Sorrow get away from my door
Don't come around
Don't come around
Don't come around here
No more
I won't welcome you in
From now on you're a stranger
Not a friend
I used to let you crawl right in make yourself at home
You'd burrow underneath my skin and wrap around my bones
But you've worn out your welcome so just walk on past this house
You ain't getting in here and I ain't coming out
Sorrow get away from my door
Don't come around
Don't come around
Don't come around here
No more
I won't welcome you in
From now on you're a stranger
Not a friend
(I ain't going down again)
I'm finally feeling strong
(I ain't going down again)
But I ain't made of stone
(I ain't going down again)
Leave me alone
I ain't going down again
Sorrow get away from my door
Don't come around
Don't come around
Don't come around here
No more
I won't welcome you in
From now on you're a stranger
Not a friend
