Into Blue 03:57
Well I found you in place inside my head You call me Sweet Thing as we lie around in your bed Well I never knew what a good man really was He calls me beautiful and he says Babe you know it’s just because Well I found you in a river stream running through We melted like sand and we faded into blue Into blue yeah Baby that’s where I found you Well I can’t help but to really see The way you look the way you speak the way you move towards me Well someone tell me how I feel I look into those eyes and I see everything that’s ever really been real Well I found you in a river stream running through We melted like sand and we faded into blue Into blue yeah Baby that’s where I found you Well I can tell you our souls they are free Waking up singing out The middle of you yeah in the middle of me Well I found you in a river stream running through We melted like sand and we faded into blue Into blue yeah Baby that’s where I found you

I am falling I am falling can’t stop spinning In my mind I find a place with you He dreams colors and textures Silk and sheens and satin greens Well you make me dizzy With the speed of your love Well here I am all alone again Here I am with wood in my hands because I am lost Well you look at me like you look at the others And if you looked at me well you might discover That I am yours I am yours Inside my mind I try to find Inside I go With a red dress she goes Well here I am trying to recover All I want to do is discover the speed of your love Speed of your love Of your love

Winter White 04:26
Winter White is on the rise Roads and paths fall from the sky in flight She wipes her heart slate from white And he falls down down down... Steady beating is the calm Presence towering in a room Fate He wipes her eyes with her tears And she sings la la la... And we all fall down Swiftly beating comes around He inscribes her heart with white And we all divide Ripened winter on the rise Well we all fall down sometimes Sometimes Spirits awaken sweet summertime And I inhale your breath with mine Thrust taste sweetly devouring Your sound And we all fall down Swiftly beating comes around He inscribes her heart with white And we all divide Ripened winter on the rise Well we all fall down We all fall And we all fall down Swiftly beating comes around He inscribes our hearts with white And we all divide Ripened winter on the rise Well we all fall down sometimes Sometimes

Sweet Boy 03:56
I can’t right any more wrongs tonight And I can’t put you in a song to make it feel right The days and hours turn the moon But you’re still the brightest star shining through Every morning I wake up with love Side to side from head to toe and above You told me I might need to find someone new But all the white in the world it couldn’t add up to be you Hey Sweet Boy Won’t you let me be with you Hey my sweet boy Just let me be with you Oh the white falls down On this sleepless girl’s town Oh and without you Is a world without light A sky with no flight My life without white Hey Sweet Boy Won’t you let me stay with you Hey my sweet boy I just want to be with you I can’t fight any more wrongs tonight Wrapped up in your love and turned white

Dixie Down 05:55
Virgil Caine well it is my name And I worked on that Danville train ‘til Stoneman’s cavalry came and tore up the tracks again In the winter of ‘65 We were hungry just barely alive By May the tenth Richmond fell It was a time I remember ah so well The night they drove old Dixie down And the bells were ringing The night they drove old Dixie down And all the people were singing They went na na na... Back with my wife in Tennessee When one day she called to me Virgil quick come out and see That can’t be the Robert E. Lee Now I don’t mind chopping wood And I don’t care that the money’s no good Take what you need and leave the rest They should have never taken the very best The night they drove old Dixie down And the bells were ringing The night they drove old Dixie down And all the people were singing They went na na na... Like my father before me I am a working man And like my brother before me I take a rebel stand Eighteen proud and brave A Yankee laid him in his grave I swear by the mud below my feet You can’t raise a Caine when he’s in defeat The night they drove old Dixie down And the bells were ringing The night they drove old Dixie down And all the people were singing They went na na na...

The Hurt 04:35
If your hands could be like anything They’d be like a burning flame And if you think that you know me Boy Well you better believe we’re not the same Because I know who you are And I know how little boys work They can’t wash you in the river Boy But they can’t wash away the hurt They can’t wash away the hurt And if I could just taste you Boy I bet you taste like the sweetest cane And if they follow you down into the trails I’ll bet they’ll see your dust trail floating in the rain Well he came walking down a moonlight trail With the water by the road And he just smiled at me as I unbuttoned down his coat Say you got to be like me Well then you’ll understand where they all went wrong And he just smiled and he sang me a song Said I know who you are and I know how little girls work They can wash you in the river Girl but they can’t wash away the hurt You can’t wash away the hurt Well he came walking down the moonlight trail With the water by the road And he just grinned and I unbuttoned down his coat Say you got to be like me Well then you’ll understand where they all went wrong And he just smiled and he sang me a song Said I know who you are and you know I love your work They can wash us in the river Boy but they can’t wash away the hurt You can’t wash away the hurt You can’t wash it away

Pieris 03:53
Crack in the door Blue on the walls Let the light shine through The green surrounds me And reminds me That the white is you The blue inside me can untie But the heart stays true The dent surrounds me And reminds me That the vein is fused Oh the white is you Oh the white light surrounds you Break in the night Creeping down But black is few Shadows surround me And remind me That none is you Pounding recedes with broken sleeves And I have created what I can believe The green surrounds me And reminds me That the white is you

Ballou 04:13
Paint me a picture of where you are And I’ll be there with you Shine me a light that comes from your eyes And I’ll find a way back to you But the colors are misleading Faces are being lost Shoulder to shoulder we march Just to be ghosts Give me a sign that you’ll understand If spirits have to let go Sing me a song from the light of the land And I’ll fly back to you When the warmth of the sun hits your skin It will be me it will be me and I will be there Oh when the breeze hits your face It will be me I will be there I will be there But the colors they are misleading Faces are being lost Shoulder to shoulder we march Just to be ghosts To be ghosts

The Mound 05:05
Why would you lead me here Just to put me on the mound Why would you lead me here Just to throw me on the mound Well I am used to this sort of thing In the end it all feels the same Well this old heart will keep on beating Even when you’re sound in the mound Oh the mound Why would you lead me here When you’re feeling pretty strange If your colors are changing And the dead rearrange Just let me know You know you could just let me go Well I choose to look the other way it seems But I can hear you know You know well I can still hear You know well I can hear I can hear your sound in the mound Oh the mound This old heart will keep on beating We will all lay sound in the mound Oh the mound Why would you lead me here Just to throw me on the mound

Leander 02:22
Leander Won’t you come and visit the South Leander Father Abraham needs you now Surrender Mr. Cobb make us aware Redeemer The South shall prevail Oh where red birds fly We wait for the storm In a sheet of red flame Heroes are born Fire at will fire at will The demons of destruction are here Fire at will fire at will Stillwell get your gun in the air Fire at will fire at will Corinth is burning Fire at will fire at will The demons of destruction are here

One Kiss 04:49
Feelings start to emerge again It’s so hard to suppress them My body it aches from within For your love I would wait again I know who you are and claim to be No need to hide away My love grows each day For you I was meant to stay Please don’t let me go I want to feel you let me feel you In my soul Close your eyes let me taste And for your love I would wait Anticipation grows And it grows at the back of me Your lips waiting to see For you I was meant to be Please don’t let me go I want to feel you let me feel you In my soul Close your eyes let me taste And for your love I would wait My dreams are real I wake up to see Your scent lingers on me For eternity Don’t leave me like this All I want is just one more kiss

Why would you lead me here Just to put me on the mound Why would you lead me here Just to throw me on the mound Well I am used to this sort of thing In the end it all feels the same Well this old heart will keep on beating Even when you’re sound in the mound Oh the mound They killed us not for character Or some egregious sins But for these badges on the outside Of the shells we came here in It was you who knew the strategy You know I would have followed you ‘til dawn And now we’re here beside this mound Where longing spirits linger on But I know you’re weary Your heart combat-bound You came here for a victory But as for me I’m just a ghost within your memory At the mound Oh the mound Why would you lead me here When you’re feeling pretty strange If your colors are changing And the dead rearrange Just let me know You know you could let me go Well I choose to look the other way it seems But I can hear you know You know well I can still hear You know well I can hear I can hear your sound in the mound Oh the mound I fell in a valley Face down in blood and rain Turn around retreat was sounded But did you ever learn my name Human flesh will die away Mortal wounds will not be healed But the tragedy today You lost your faith upon this field But I hope Your heart will reconcile Every hour becomes a year Every inch becomes a mile But you could swear right there A hand reached up from underneath the pile Oh I said This old heart will keep on beating It was you who knew the plans This old heart will keep on beating It was you who knew the way This old heart will keep on beating I said this heart will keep on beating Beating We will all lay sound in the mound Oh the mound Why would you lead me here Just to throw me on the mound

Well the day has finally come We weathered through the dark storm and the night And we held the lucky ones Please tell my mother That I’m coming home Dear brother John You can put down your gun Because the day has finally come Marching For hours and hours and hours We marched through the fields And through the fire And were with the ones who fell Oh Mr. Lincoln We wish you were here To see the devil’s army surrender And your souls freed Well I hear they call you Father Abraham Father Abraham We see your light Keep shining your light We followed your light Father Abraham Well the day has finally come We weathered through the dark storm and the night And we held the lucky ones Oh lucky ones The day has come
