1.
If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you...

2.
And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
Thinking about women and glasses of beer
And closing his eyes as the dogies retire
He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
As if maybe someone could hear…

3.
And in the streets the children screamed
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken...

4.
In the quiet silent seconds I turned off the light switch
And I came down to meet you in the half light the moon left
While a cluster of night jars sang some songs out of tune
A mantle of bright light shone down from a room...

5. 
Crimson flames tied through my ears
Rolling high and mighty traps
Pounced with fire on flaming roads
Using ideas as my maps…

6.
It is the evening of the day
I sit and watch the children play
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me
I sit and watch…

7. 
Words are flowing out like
Endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly
as they slip away...

8.
Once amid the soft silver sadness in the sky
There came a man of fortune, a drifter passing by
He wore a torn and tattered cloth
around his leather side
And a coat of many colors,
yellow-green on either side…

9.
Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move,
gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove…

10.
Well she's walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that's running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tails...
