Express me, please!

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now

This feels like the place between what is and might have been

The more you see the less you know The less you find out as you go I knew much more then than I do now Neon heart, day-glow eyes The city lit by fireflies They're advertising in the skies And people like us And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh you look so beautiful tonight... Don't look before you laugh Look ugly in a photograph Flash bulbs, purple irises the camera can't see I've seen you walk unafraid I've seen you in the clothes you've made Can you see the beauty inside of me? What happened to the beauty I had inside of me? And I miss you when you're not around I'm getting ready to leave the ground Oh you look so beautiful tonight...tonight In the city of blinding lights Time...time....time...won't leave me as I am But time won't take the boy out of this man Oh you look so beautiful tonight Oh you look so beautiful tonight Oh you look so beautiful tonight In the city of blinding lights, The more you know The less you feel Some pray for, others steal Blessings not just for the ones who kneel, luckily

Once my heart was filled with love of a girl I held her close, but she faded in the night Like a poem I meant to write And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither with the wind And they crumble in your hand I threw a pebble in a brook And watched the ripples run away And they never made a sound And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither with the wind And they crumble in your hand Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello Good-bye, Good-bye Good-bye, Good-bye That's all there is And the leaves that are green turn to brown

And don’t criticize What you can’t understand Your sons and your daughters Are beyond your command Your old road is Rapidly agin’ Please get out of the new one If you can’t lend your hand For the times they are a-changin’.

One love One blood One life You got to do what you should One life With each other Sisters Brothers One life But we’re not the same We get to  Carry each other Carry each other One…life One

- What if I fall? - Oh but my darling, What if you fly?

This is what it sounds like When doves cry

Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all

So Sally can wait, she knows it’s too late as she’s walking on by My soul slides away, but don’t look back in anger I heard you say

Do I dare disturb the universe?

I held my breath waiting for a fat chance The day you’d come around I held it ‘til I was blue in my head And blues was all I found

Is there no way out of the mind?

All is near, all is distant All is given man as a loan All is mine, and all shall be taken from me, the trees, the clouds, the earth I face I shall wander - alone, without a trace

Paths are made by walking

Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day And head back toward the Milky Way And are you lonely looking for yourself out there? Tell me did you sail across the sun Did you make it to the milky way to see the lights all faded And that heaven is overrated Tell me, did you fall from a shooting star One without a permanent scar And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there

I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
