Softest Sheets 04:00
lyrics
Your beautiful honest eyes fill me up when open wide offering the wildest gift of truest blue Your gentle mouth curlicued beams the brightest light from you I'm reminded I'm alive and all I need and love is inside my home Silently we drift asleep covered in the softest sheets upon the wave of all we know and all we know is love inside our home

Maiden Name 03:17
lyrics
Hey Ma, it's me Elijah Gene O, how I miss you so I changed my name to your maiden name and I will never let you go I married just the sweetest thing you'd ever meet but never meet so long ago it seems so long ago And all she'll ever know of you is what you knew to give to me so long ago it seems so long ago I see you in the pattern of the stars I feel you in the beating of my heart I will not ever let you go Keep you in my pocket like a coin hold you with a neverending joy I will not ever let you go I will never let you go

Darling 04:46
lyrics
Darling, you're a wild thistled flower wanna hold you, wanna touch you but I don 't know how You're deep rooted in your field christened by the graces of dawn O come on, Darling Darling, you're closed up like a door when I knock, when i call, when I hoot and holler you don't need me no more But i just came here to say I've written you a song Darling, about how I thought about you all night long I know it's hard to open up your heart and tell me everything When we lay down to bed just put your head on my chest and share with me your dreams, Darling When you come with a shiver up your spine your flower's opening Your care melts away to reveal that everything's a dream O, you know what i mean, Darling Darling, you lay there in your robe with your breast exposed beneath the light of this Autumn glow I cave into your charms run my hand across your arm You let me in, Darling Darling, your smile is the light you shared with me all that you have, you say "Hey, stay the night" But I just came here to say I've written you a song, Darling. how i was right about you all along I know it's hard to open up your heart and tell me everything When we lay down to bed Just put your head on my chest and share with me your dreams Darling I know it's hard to give away your heart But promise me you will, for me, Darling

Offer My Heart 04:25
lyrics
There's a warmest wind filling my body There's a glowing love bright as a star The kindest kind of an offering I offer my heart All we are is a new body All we are is a new song All we are is a belonging I offer my heart There's a key in the hole of the lock now it's turning The curtains are flowing aloft now they're blown away I'm whispering into your ear so soflty I am in love I am in love

I Will Wake You 03:44
lyrics
I can see the sunlight but you're still inside the moonlight the light's inside you woman wake you up We're silently approaching the guiding light of dawn the breaking limb you'll fall in light I know I will wake you up I will wake you up I will help you rise and fall help you love it all watch your breast rise and fall & open up the window I will wake you up

This Love 01:50
lyrics
This love is a bear cave warm in the snow This love is a wild hibernating glow This love is a full moon all through the night This love is the beaming mother of the tides All good things combined inside this love This love is a strong wind filling a sail This love is a peaceful guiding gale Take me where you will inside this love

All It Was Was A Love 02:44
lyrics
I'm gliding like a skipping stone Uncovering the hearth in my home Could it ever grow where it was not sown? Could it ever fall when it was not thrown? I'm finding that I'm never alone I'm dying that's all that I know All it is is a want deep inside the other heart All it is is a love I threw away Could it ever grow where it was not sown? Could it ever land when it was not thrown? All it is is a want deep inside the other heart All it was was a love I threw away Everything is made to break in transit Everything is made to fill a void Everything is caving in and damaged Everything is wrong I'm waiting where there isn't a home Elijah Jensen-Lindsey June 10th, 2015

Do Me That Love 04:38
lyrics
Do me that love As a tree, tree Where birds and wind Sing though they know How real night is And no one can Go on for long In any way Do me that love Do me that love As the rain, rain That has voices In it, the greats’ And fools’, poor dead From old weathers — Lives considered And rejected As ours will be. The rain comes down And flowers grow On the graves of Our enemies Do me that love ~ Kenneth Patchen from Red Wine and Yellow Hair (1949)

Darkened Hallway 02:39
lyrics
The porch is glowing soft the day has given up the long fight Neighbors kneel in prayer I haven't spoke to God in a long time I'm open like a flower Oh how I love you now and always Take you by the hand and lead you down this darkened hallway in our home, goodnight
