sweet sweet friend when the robins sleep i'll see you emerging from the corn sweet sweet friend i'll recognise you by the lantern in your hand
2.
who 02:59
a long time ago i was an angel and i felt like rainfall when no one was around to say "hello" or "how are you?" alone on the street i waited for the wind to blow or for the snow to fall with no one around to say "hello" or "farewell" who was down on the ground below you as you flew by? on the train i dreamt you were invisible and russia was a candystore and no one was around to say "wake up, i still love you"
3.
old echo 03:28
through the woods and the weddings through the water parks past the house where you turned eleven through the falling snow tell me, is old echo mine? through the books and an october through the howling winds if you recall the church was there before it burned to the ground tell me, is old echo mine?
4.
abigail 02:56
do you recall there were windows overlooking carousels and pumpkin fields in the museum where i found you? do you recall there were comets who sang just like teakettles and romica in outer space where i found you? now that youre older who will sing to you again? do you recall there were puddles shaped just like maple leaves and nightingales in that rainy town where i found you? now that youre older who will sing to you again? do you recall abigail when we were children in northern maine?
5.
oh i remember when i was a baby mouse yellow moon and i were in a dream drifting through the pumpkin flowers disappear upon a swan on wheels you stood and fired william's revolver oh i remember silhouettes of apple trees shooting stars who fell asleep in the sky afloat in a city fountain hold me like a pumpkin in your arms you stood and fired william's revolver oh i remember you my love
6.
nicholas my dear where were your eyes when mine were here? nicholas my dear where were your hands when mine were empty?
7.
eyes & eyes & eyes ago i buried you i wept for you eyes & eyes & eyes ago i prayed for your soul and the memory of your voice sang me to sleep and i dreamt of the forest lit dinners we shared
8.
long ago when my mother was lost i remember mornings as a mouse i remember sleeping in their furniture long ago when my mother was lost weather now i know how you feel long ago when my father was lost i remember summers as a ghost i remember floating through the universe long ago when my father was lost weather now i know how you feel if you were here now waltzing with crescent moons on your gown if i were a cloudy starless sky with only my rain to catch your eye
9.
jupiter and i walk through town on a spring day shooing the raindrops
10.
if you were a girl half asleep afloat in the firmament kites rose until they warmed your shoulders fluttering as sadness fell them one by one wishing you farewell and when you blew away hidden by storms who adored you now circling town what a lovely world you are our grey skies remember you and far below your blood still knew the wooden whispers of its youth if you were a girl fast asleep on a ferry november 9th, 1927 who dreamt i was a paper mouse adrift with her in starry skies between the poles we sleep at night
11.
wedding gown where will we be found? february belongs to forever now you were a water wonder with blue blue eyes drifting through the stars reflected on the lake if you were a magic lantern then instead of blue eyes there won't be any crows to cry with you there i once made a film with a nightingale of cannonballs when our heartbeats were near but time goes by like an unwinding wish tilting toward winter once again if you were an advent calendar instead of blue eyes there won't be any crows to cry with you there a book of our memories on the table open to the day we broke the carousel's heart
12.
so long 01:51
so long old moon so long my swan so long river otters so long grey skies so long black squirrels so long pumpkin fields so long my friends so long to all so long christmas morning
13.
i could walk along the road as i slept without losing my way who will weep with you, my lighthouse, my love, now that i've gone away?
14.
where are you, aurora borealis? when i go to sleep you're not ever there though i'm in love with you now and forever where are you, aurora borealis? light a candle, old soul on the winds who blow by tomorrow i know you'll return dear where are you, aurora borealis? i'll float alone through the trees to be no one's sleep it is a constant farewell we behold here
