All I need (For Caryn)

in my space
In my mind
there lived a place
I couldn't find.
Then one day
A ray of light
led the way
to where you are.
(One time without vocal)
I feel your space
I feel your glow
your lovely face
bathed in light.
By the way
by the way
May I say
we''re alright .
I've stayed too long
without saying so,
but your loving way
just showers me.
I've lived too long
without feeling so
But I think this is how
life is meant to be.
All I need
is what you are...

Drop D tuning, capo to 4th fret
Em
A precious time
G
the sight of you.
Em
So sublime,
G
what was I to do?
D
Me,
032030 D
just lifted in the wind
so fearful this would end
I could only just listen.
To feel,
the warmth within your hands
as if I’d never land
my mind just keeps repeating.
054200 002010
Green street so gracious is your love
020033
that simply breathes within you
that we all feel so quietly.
Painted frescos up above
speak to us in memory.
How could we ever lose you?
Now troubled times
they’ll follow you
till you ask yourself
“what am I to do”?
Please
just open up your hands
just try to understand,
brother I am speaking...
Of peace
a notion in our minds
so simple and sublime
how could we only help, but listen..

Hold me
03:09
|
|||
In the shade you are sleeping
beneath the trees quietly weeping
for the messages we’ve left
for our sons.
Oh, a thousand times I’ve tried
but I can't really decide
if after all this pain
just what have we’ve won.
Hold me, for I’m falling
falling from this violence
that you’ve done.
Hear me, for I’m calling
for you to see past
the barrel of your gun.
If you could see past religion
so full of fear and derision
you would finally awake
in sweet love.
If you could only just hear me
above the roar of this hating
you would finally awake
in sweet love.
Hold me, for I’m falling
falling from this violence
that you’ve done.
Hear me, for I’m calling
for you to see past
the barrel of your gun.

Spring rain
04:22
|

All your love
All your love
Washes over me
Like a Spring rain.
Morning come
release me again
of your love I breathe
breathe again.

Sheltered breaths
03:19
|

Sheltered breaths
The sun comes up
the sun goes down,
and this whole world
keeps spinning round.
Just like the clock
upon the wall,
I guess those hands
move after all.
Like ice
when Springtime melts
Winter away
what can we say?
Like life
she is so strong,
like the river running
into the bay.
(one time, instrumental)
So now we talk
of precious things,
our fragile world
tied up by string.
We darn our socks
and polish rings,
and dust of pictures
of older things.
And cry
in sheltered breaths
so that no one will see
all our unfinished dreams.
And try
to do our best,
to forget all the things
that we left in between.

Don't matter what you say
_________________________
Don’t matter what you say
now it’s alright with me.
I’ve been living on my own
for an eternity.
Anyway I’ve got these blues
I just gotta lose.
For everyday that you’re gone
I tell myself I’m moving on.
Am D
I surely wasted my time
033210
chasing dreams of you
020033
and dreams of having everything.
How could I be so blind,
How could I’ve thought these words
were really gonna save me?
Now pretty lady my, my
why’d you bless me
then just go and forsake me?
I wanna turn back time
I want to keep these hands
from slowly unwinding....

I see a place
________________
X03010
Standing in a subway
X23010
amongst all the people
C 030010
looking at their papers
C 030010
staring out the window
Where are all the children?
my look at how we’ve grown,
but unlike little children
no one looks at me.
Standing in a playground
amongst the little faces
watching how they play
watching life’s sweet graces
Adorn these little souls
with wonder and amazement
so where is all our love?
and when did we lose it?
Chorus:
Am D7
I see a place
G 100001 Em G
so full of love and grace
F C
But when will it come?
E7 Am
when will it be done?
D7
and how long
G F Em G
shall we wait?
Standing at the border
a mother with her children
tired little faces
wondering where they’re sleeping.
Beneath the overpass
in downtown Tijuana
or in a cardboard shack
in the slums of Calcutta.
High above the city
the music softly playing
I see the banker
contemplating his good fortune.
But what of all the children,
cold and barely sleeping?
Far beneath his feet
can he hear their hearts beating?
Chorus
Standing near the surgeon
I see him deftly working,
hands moving surely,
removing nature’s witness.
Nurses all around him,
conductor of a symphony
a grand creation
of science and technology.
Deep within the jungle
within an unknown villiage
looking to a lantern
I see an old man bleeding.
A witness to a tragedy
another falling angel
buried in your paper
did you see him there this morning?
Chorus
Here is the church
here is the steeple
open all the doors
and see all the people....

World on a string
04:30
|
|||
Your pain will pass with love and time
All amazing is waiting
consider these problems resolved,
for breathing love
unravels shadow
Oh, the way is clear you'll see
for all the love that you breath
will erase and rearrange your pain
for all the love that you breath
will give you the reason to change.
Yes it is
such a melody,
a sweet and fragile thing
that everyone sees.
Twirling on a string,
oh why do we breath
of everything important,
and necessary?
World on a string
spinning round blindness in place of bliss.
World on a string
spinning round illusion and dreams.
Oh...
time and love can only mend you...
Cry...
but lay upon my shoulder.
