Weathered Hands

Well the days wear on and the road seems so long
But I’m coming home to you
And this work ain’t no love song
Sometimes it puts me in a fog
But I’m coming home to you
My boots are dusty and this voice is getting rusty
But I’m coming home to you
My guitar lays beside yours
I’ll leave my problems at the door
When I’m coming home to you
Well I hummed your name in a song today
Said I’m coming home to you
Well I thought I heard you calling but I didn’t know what to say
Said I’m coming home to you
So I’ll roll another cigarette
These damn things ain’t killed me yet
So here I come home to you
And I sure hope that you’d come soon
It’s getting lonely in this room
Here I come home to you
My weathered hands feel so smooth when we play this tune
My tired voice feels so new when I sing with you
The past is there but all we have is right here
So I’ll take your weathered hands and we’ll play this tune
My weathered hands feel so smooth when we play this tune
My tired voice feels so new when I sing with you
The past is there but all we have is right here
So
Will you take my weathered hands and we’ll play this tune

December Rain

Christmas lights, orange and cool
I over analyze everything I do
And the snow is red and green
City lights, red and blue
I wonder why I dream of you
Hannukah, no dreidel to be found
But you made a menorah out of clay
Let’s throw it in the kiln
And we’ll fire it into something new
December rain, how unusual for this place
I’ll take the blame
Let my bones swell with shame
Let’s throw it on the wheel
And we’ll turn it into something useful
Christmas lights, red, white and blue
I try and respect you, can you respect us too?
Let’s throw it in the kiln
And we’ll fire it into something functional

Abomination Sensation

I left our photo in the bathroom stall
You must think that I don’t care at all
But that’s not it, I’m just careless
I can’t treat you like you deserve
And I’m bound to get right on your nerves
So tell me, should I just leave?
I’m gonna buy me a violin
Use the bow to draw you right in
Waltzing around, all over town
I wanna serenade you to sleep
You’re so far away sometimes I don’t eat
What’s the point in counting sheep?
If, I won’t give up on us
I won’t give up on love
I won’t give up this spot on my heart
Temptations they are all around
They’re like pennies that you find on the ground
Tails down, heads up
Look out now
You may call me an abomination
Then you’re calling me the new sensation
It’s all a sin, just matters how you look at it
But
I won’t give up on us
Cause I won’t give up on love
I won’t give up this spot on my heart

Home for Dinner

Well I tried to write about the needles on the trees
But the city wouldn't let me, yeah the city don't let me
Then I tried to figure all that you mean to me
But my worry wouldn't let me, yeah my worry don't let me
Then I tried to sing about the birds and the bees
But my body wouldn't let me, yeah my body don't let me
Then I tried to write about how I felt about looking out at the sea
But the words didn't find me, sometimes the words don't find me
I'm trying to do better
I'm trying to do better, by you... by all of you
I'm trying to do better, I swear to God, I'm really trying to do better
By you, by all of you...
I tried to send out some letters
But I lost all the postage, I guess I misplaced the postage
Then I tried to telephone home today
But I misplaced by phone again, I guess I lost my phone again
Then I promised that I'd be productive today
But I stayed up late again, doing nothing
Then I swore that I'd finish this song today
But the words up and left me, I guess the words just left me
I'm trying to feel better
I'm trying to feel better, for you... for all of you
Things are gonna get better, yeah things just gotta get better
For you... for all of you

We all got dreams that will take us a lifetime
Sure can feel nice to float in the fleeting lines
Of today and tomorrow when I’ll glance you again
A quick wave, nice to see ya
Then off, like a wren
Off like a wren
I said I’d call you one of these days
But that old promise always gets misplaced
So hey I will see you at the grocery store
We’ll talk for a minute or two
And then check out
I want to know what you got in your cart
Do you like your apples sweet, or tart?
Do you like your peas frozen or canned
Are there any foods that you just can’t stand?
So friend I will see you at the grocery store
We’ll talk for a minute or two
