The Willow 04:59
There's a secret place on the riverside Where I like to go when my well has run dry Where an old familiar friend welcomes me with branches wide To embrace me, to shelter me Longing for serenity There's no place I'd rather be now Under my willow Time stands still This canopy of leaves is my retreat Is my sweetest remedy My weeping willow My sanctuary I'm looking up and see The sun's breaking through the leaves And get lost in reverie When it feels like walls are closing in You need to climb out And find your freedom within Seems like a loud and restless world Is turning faster everyday But you can slow down, don't have to run along Doesn't mean to be alone But one with all, and all with one Under my willow Time stands still This canopy of leaves is my retreat Is my sweetest remedy My weeping willow My sanctuary I'm looking up and see The sun's breaking through the leaves And get lost in reverie And get lost in reverie

Take Time 05:13
There was magic in these summer nights With the moon shining full and bright And the sea, wild and free Wild and free, like you and me And the sea, wild and free Wild and free, like you and me And we would dance 'til the morning light We would sing, and feel so alive Let the music awake our souls Break down walls, connect our hearts Let the music awake our souls Break down walls, connect our hearts We can be like the wind and the sea We can go with the flow And take our time And take our time There were no ties to hold us back We would jump right off the beaten track And the rain, it washed away The dirt and dust of yesterday And the rain, it washed away The dirt and dust of yesterday We can be like the wind and the sea We can go with the flow And take our time And take our time And when I'm back In the old familiar place I won't cry, I won't have lost these days I will keep the memory And make it all a part of me I will keep the memory And make it all a part of me We can be like the wind and the sea We can go with the flow And take our time And take our time

Drifter 04:31
Lonesome drifter Shapeshifter Trying to find your place In this mad world Dreaming far and wide Struggling to decide Never truly free Again you long to be Far away, far away Far away, far away Your love is like a wave Comes crashin', then slips away Silence following the storms of your surrender Never tried to tie you down Don't know why you've turned around As close as souls can be Your heart will always feel... Far away, far away Far away, far away...
