Rolling hills, crashing tides
Peaches and plums, stain their mouths, stain their mouths.
Curly hair, salty tease
Hold my hand, summer breeze, summer breeze.
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools
Big yellow, in the sky
Bellies full, eyes are wide, eyes are wide.
Riverbank, heat is slow,
Roasted spice, burns so nice, burns so nice.
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools
Ah, Green Pools

Mystery Charmer

Touch me with intent,
Lock eyes and stay hesitant.
You're not the wrong guy, just another one of my little white lies.
Your eyes betray you, can't watch yourself and watch me too,
I didn't want to move but
The space between us is, uncomfortable
Make pretend we could be real, although we know it's not part of this deal.
Not the first I'd love to know, what those other girls don't
Be the guideline, ship to your harbour, bet you I'm smarter too.
I can't tell you a thing, I wouldn't know, could you go?
Mystery Charmer making it harder.
Tell me I'm different (different),
Another creature, another pretence.
And you want a stranger, and I want adventure.
Not the first I'd love to know, what those other girls don't
Be the guideline, ship to your harbour, bet you I'm smarter too.
I can't tell you a thing, I wouldn't know, could you go?
Mystery Charmer making it harder.
Mystery Charmer making it harder
Mystery Charmer
Not the first I'd love to know, what those other girls don't
Be the guideline, ship to your harbour, bet you I'm smarter too.
I can't tell you a thing, I wouldn't know, could you go?
Mystery Charmer making it harder
Mystery Charmer making it harder
Mystery Charmer making it harder
Oh Mystery Charmer making it harder,
Mystery Charmer making it harder,
Making it harder, making it harder, making it harder

Caught up in my middle eye
I see you there
Forecasted blue skies
My darling
Caught up in my middle eye
Wish you weren't there
Reach me and deny
My darling
Don't you want to tell the truth?
Give me your exactitude
Tell me how I'm not going to fit
Long nights and I am lonely, lonely
Two inches away your breathing, slowing
Feet on the dashboard, beaming from cheek to cheek
Tell myself the stories, I seek to keep
Don't you want to tell the truth?
Give me your exactitude
Tell me how I'm not going to fit
I'm not going to fit
Long nights and are you sleeping?
Heart heavy, full of promise, eyes knowing
Don't you want to tell the truth?
Give me your exactitude
Tell me how I'm not going to fit
I'm not going to fit
I'm not going to win
Caught up in my middle eye
I see you there
Forecasted blue skies
My darling
Caught up in my middle eye
Wish you weren't there
Reach me and deny
My darling
Don't you want to tell the truth?
Give me your exactitude
Tell me how I'm not going to fit
I'm not going to fit
I'm not going to win
I'm not going to fit

Journey's are long
Think my memory faded
Holding onto dreams of roads never have taken
It feels good to rest my feet on our floor
I left you in short stay, sleeping bag discarded
Kiss you in the wind and rush to get a thing started
I'd hesitate, in the moment, if I could
My blue dalliance
My treasured circumstance
We started where we parted
Bound in by youth
Forty five two and I'm looking for you
Plastic packed meal and a bottle for two
Running circles, running cheeks, unspoken truth
I couldn't run off cause I couldn't find North
And I couldn't reach morning
Crying for help
Need to chart a course for myself
Even keel at the helm to
My blue dalliance
My treasured circumstance
We started where we parted
Bound in by youth
My blue dalliance
My treasured circumstance
We started where we parted
Bound in by youth
This setting sun
Can come real near
Cause it's bringing me home
To my baby, my dear
We started, where we parted and I'm still here
This setting sun
Can come real near
Cause it's bringing me home
To my baby, my dear
We started, where we parted and I'm still here

Neighbourhood Hero

There is a man
Who'll understand
Lend a hand to some
A legend around these parts
Pool and darts at the bar, there you are
Can we, can we, can we go that far?
Can we, can we, can we go that
He'll take your hand
Make a plan
Take a stand for your cause
Fix it and show you the side he just wants you to see
Can we, can we, can we help him see?
Can we, can we, can we help him?
Neighbourhood hero, misunderstood
Neighbourhood hero, misunderstood
He'll never grow
Not that he's slow
He just stays put and
Fixes his shine right on those
Undeserving of his time
Can we, can we, can we make it fine?
Can we, can we, can we turn back
Neighbourhood hero, misunderstood
Neighbourhood hero, misunderstood
Time surely past
They forget all about the man
Who laid down his pride
Just to glow, flicker out and then retire
To the dark, drained from spark
Left his mark, left his mark
Can we, can we, can we make it fine?
Can we, can we, can we turn back

Unfolding above me
Orchard in the sky
Waxy leaves on fingers
Autumn's said goodbye
Unfolding below me
Creature in the sky
Marigolds and magpies
Soon you're passing by, by
Sky
