The Man-Eating Tree

Amended

Will work and try,
to heal myself
Will repair and weld,
together the pieces
Will quench and drown,
and fires I have lit
Will free the birds,
I have caged in

I am here, at the house of light, come see me
The night and I, in a parley now, believe me
And all my words have weight again, hear me
And all our wounds have healed me

Will travel in the cold,
to find a house of light
Will call for the night,
to have it's ghost stand down
Will breath life into,
the promise I have broken
Will walk days in the Sun,
to arrive where I can say:

I am here, at the house of light, come see me
The night and I, in a parley now, believe me
And all my words have weight again, hear me
And all our wounds have healed me

I am here, at the house of light, come see me
Hear me

Nights in White Satin (The Moody Blues cover)

Nights in white satin, never reaching the end
Letters I've written, never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore

'Cos I love you, yes I love you, how I love you

Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end

'Cos I love you, yes I love you, how I love you

'Cos I love you, yes I love you,
how I love you, how I love you
'Cos I love you, yes I love you,
how I love you

Out of the Wind

Now and again
Would come the invisible
Out of the nether in
Her finest dress
Breaking free to haunt
The eyes that saw

Then silver wires
Hung in the haze
Skin, and frail bones
Hung in the night

Hunger for the marvel
And worship of the fright
As long as it's safer for us
Than it was for her
Haunting only softly
Like daytime radio

Then silver wires
Hung in the haze
Skin, and frail bones
Hung in the night

Carrying a song he sings
For the woods:
"Led her out of the wind
And off into the smoke
Led her out of the wind
For the brandy and wine
Led her out of the wind
If only my bones wouldn't
Begin so much to feel it
Led her out of the wind
Off into the smoke"

Then silver wires
Hung in the haze
Skin, and frail bones
Hung in the night

Then silver wires
Hung in the haze
Skin, and frail bones
Hung in the night
