11  Tall trees in Georgia

Tall trees in Georgia,
They grow so high
They shade me so
And sadly walking
Through the thicket I go

The sweetest love I ever had
I left aside
Because I did not want
To be any mans bride
But now I'm older
And married I would be
I found my sweetheart
But he would not marry me

When I was younger
The boys all came around
But now I'm older
And they've all settled down
Control your mind my girl
And give your heart to one
For if you love all men
You'll be surely left with none

Tall trees in Georgia,
They grow so high
They shade me so
And sadly walking
Through the thicket I go


12  Greenwaves

I remember a meadow one morning in May.
With a sky full of dreams that sailed in that day.
I was dancing through green waves of grass like the sea
For a moment in time I could feel I was free.
There are waves of forgiveness and waves of regret.
And the first waves of true love I'll never forget.
In the meadow that morning as I wandered alone
There were green waves of yearning for life still unknown.
Take me home to the meadow that cradles my heart
Where the waves reach as far as you can see.
Take me home to the meadow ' we've been too long apart,
I can still hear you calling for me.
Take me home to the meadow that cradles my heart
Where the waves reach as far as you can see.
Take me home to the meadow ' we've been too long apart,
I can still hear you calling for me.
What I'd give to remember that heavenly state
Just a moment in time ' all mine to create.
As I'm taking my last breath I know what I'll see
There'll be green waves forever out there waiting for me.
Take me home to the meadow that cradles my heart
Where the waves reach as far as you can see.
Take me home to the meadow ' we've been too long apart,
I can still hear you calling for me.


13  Nocturne


Now let the day
Just slip away
So the dark night may watch over you
Velvet blue, silent true
It embraces your heart and your soul
Nocturne
Never cry, never sigh
You don't have to wonder why
Always be, always see
Come and dream the night with me
Nocturne
Have no fear
When the night draws near
And fills you with dreams and desire
Like a child asleep
So warm, so deep
You will find me there waiting for you
Nocturne
We will fly, claim the sky
We don't have to wonder why
Always be, always see
Come and dream the night with me
Nocturne
Though darkness lay
It will give way
When the dark night delivers the day
Nocturne


14  Shenandoah

O Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Away, you rolling river
O Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Away I'm bound to go 'cross the wide Missouri
O Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, you rolling river
O Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away I'm bound to go 'cross the wide Missouri
O Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, you rolling river
O Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away I'm bound to go 'cross the wide Missouri


15  Red River Valley


From this valley they say you are leaving
We shall miss your bright eyes and sweet smile
For you take with you all of the sunshine
That has brightened our pathway a while
Then come sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that's loved you so true
For a long time, my darlin', I've waited
For the sweet words you never would say
Now at last all my fond hopes have vanished
For they say that you're going away
Then come sit by my side if you love me
Do not hasten to bid me adieu
Just remember the Red River Valley
And the cowboy that's loved you so true


16  Moon River


Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me
Moon river, wider than a mile
I'm crossin' you in style some day
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker
Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
Two drifters, off to see the world
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after that same rainbow's end, waitin' 'round the
Bend
My huckleberry friend, moon river, and me


17  In The Arms Of The Angel


Spend all your time waiting
for that second chance
for a break that would make it okay
there's always some reason
to feel not good enough
and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
oh beautiful release
memories seep from my veins
let me be empty
and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight
in the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
so tired of the straight line
and everywhere you turn
there's vultures and thieves at your back
and the storm keeps on twisting
you keep on building the lies
that you make up for all that you lack
 it don't make no difference
escaping one last time
it's easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
this glorious sadness that brings me to my knees
in the arms of the angel
fly away from here
from this dark cold hotel room
and the endlessness that you fear
you are pulled from the wreckage
of your silent reverie
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here
you're in the arms of the angel
may you find some comfort here


18  Speak Softly Love


Speak softly, love
And hold me warm against your heart
I feel your words
The tender trembling moments start
We're in a world, our very own
Sharing a love that only few have ever known
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love
We make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-colored days warmed by the sun
Deep velvet nights when we are one
Speak softly, love
So no one hears us but the sky
The vows of love we make will live until we die
My life is yours and all because
You came into my world with love so softly love


19  My Love Is Like A Red Red Rose


My love is like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June
My love is like a melody
So sweetly played in tune
As fair art thou my bonnie lass
So deep in love am I
And I would love thee still my dear
Though all the seas gone dry
Though all the seas gone dry my dear
And the rocks melt with the sun
I would love thee still my dear
Though the sands of time may run
So fare thee well my bonnie lass
And fare thee well awhile
And I would come to you again
Though we were ten thousand miles


20  Song For A Stormy Night


The rain beats hard at my window,
While you, so softly do sleep;
And you can't hear the cold wind blow,
You are sleeping so deep
Outside it's dark, the moon hiding,
By starlight only I see,
The host of the night-time go riding,
But you are safe here with me.
So, while the world out there is sleeping,
And everyone wrapped up so tight,
Oh, I am a vigil here keeping,
On this stormy night;
I promised I always would love you,
If skies would be grey or be blue,
I whisper this prayer now above you,
That there will always be you.
Sometimes, we're just like the weather,
Changing by day after day
As long as we'll be together,
Storms will pass away.
I said I would guard and protect you.
Keep you free from all harm;
And if life should ever reject you,
That love would weather each storm.
So, while the world out there is sleeping,
And everyone wrapped up so tight,
Oh, I am a vigil here keeping,
On this stormy night;
I promised I always would love you,
If skies would be grey or be blue,
I whisper this prayer now above you,
That there will always be you.
Soon, I know you'll be waking,
Ask did I sleep - did I write?
And I'll just say I was making...
A song... for a stormy night.
