Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a fine line between loving you and running away
(baby such a fine line)
Such a fine line between what we do and what we say
(baby such a fine line)
I float in darkness alone
Adrift in a bed made for two
Why won't the gods let me win at love
If only you loved me as i love you
Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a fine line between loving you and running away
(baby such a fine line)
Such a fine line between what we do and what we say
(baby such a fine line)
Each time i know it won't work
We're linked through time but can not be
Why won't the gods let me win at love
I'd sell my soul to feel you loving me
I fell from that ancient willow tree
Into the River of Truth
I lay down my head on my pillow
And drown in the Fountain of You
Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a long time since I've been with you baby, such a long time
(baby such a long time)
Such a fine line between loving you and running away
(baby such a fine line)
Such a fine line between what we do and what we say
(baby such a fine line)
Should have never run away
(such a long time, baby)
Should have never run away
(such a long, long time)
Should have stayed with you that day
(such a long time, baby)
Should have never run away
(such a long, long time)

This Man of Mine
04:41
|

I felt him fall
This man of mine
Deep in the earth
In the Number Nine mine
Dear God be with him
With your love divine
Holding tight to the hand
That once held mine
His days were so short
His nights were so long
Then came that day
When all went so wrong
And our world came falling
Like old Number Nine
And I lost my love
This man of mine
And here fall my tears
Wetting his grave
I pray to God
For his soul to save
And the light around me
The warm spring air
Bringing forth the flowers
And I feel he is there
The evening he left
He kissed me goodbye
Stepped off the porch
And walked toward the mine
And he turned to face me
As if to say
I love you my darlin'
But I must be on my way
Over these hills
So far away
Down by the stream
Where the yellow poplars sway
Is the place I first met him
And knew he was mine
And he laughed in his way
And his eyes were so kind
And still fall my tears
Wetting his grave
Autumn has come
Winter on its way
And the leaves come falling
Like tears from the sky
Oh how I will miss
This man of mine

Icarus
03:15

When the sun reveals the day
When the rain has washed away
The tears, the fears, the blackest of years
The light of love will reappear
Melting, melting, blinded, fall
Holding on to nothing at all...
Holding on to nothing at all
We learned to love as days passed by
Soon our love had learned to fly
But when our wingtips touched the sun
We fell to earth as lovers one
Lost by the father, found by the son
Consecrated by the Holy One
On hallowed altars, made alive
There we will strengthen our wings tonight
Melting, melting, blinded, fall
Holding on to nothing at all...
Holding on to nothing at all
Sworn by Zeus to overcome
The failings of the Lesser Ones
To rise again, unfettered fly
With wings of gossamer, touch the sky
Stepping off the temple wall:
Before you fly you have to fall
Then climbing high, we’ll find the way
Our love will melt the sun that day.

Falling

Down
Falling me
Falling you
Falling through
Falling leaves from the trees
Touch the ground, not a sound
Falling Down
Down
Falling me
Falling you
Falling through
Falling world start to spin
Whirling pool, learn to swim
Falling Down
Ashes Ashes
All Fall Down
Ashes Ashes
All Fall Down
Down
Falling me
Falling you
Falling through
Shattered glass on the ground
Blood is drawn, screams are drowned
Falling Down
Down
Falling me
Falling you
Falling through
Empty streets in the town
Echoed cries, lonely sounds
Falling Down
Ashes Ashes
All Fall Down
Down
Falling me
Falling you
Falling through
Falling leaves from the trees
Touch the ground, not a sound
Falling Down

New fallen snow on the frozen pond
I wonder where the summer has gone
I cast my lot with those who dream
Brothers and sisters and magical beings
Bells that ring in the darkest night
Swirling songs and sparkles of light
With polar bears that dance in the squares
And Elves that take flight like spirits of light
Come to me now, to hold and to keep
Come to me now, as I fall into sleep
Oh what I feel, I fall to my knees
Oh what I feel, pastel ghosts touching me
Oh what I see, colored rings round the trees
Oh what I see, sparkling lights touch the sea
Oh how I feel, my dreams are of flight
Dreams take us home on this sacred, magic night
Dreams take us home on this sacred, magic night
Dreams take us home on this sacred, magic night
Take us home
Take us home
Take us home
Take us home
Dreams take us home on this sacred, magic night

Timothy Wenzel Midland, Michigan
"Timothy Wenzel is one those composers that go beyond the boundaries of known genres. His recent album Dusk to Diamonds is a
convergence of New Age, contemporary, and cinematic themes that results in an absorbing aural experience. Every one of these dozen tracks has a light, delicate touch that seems to ease into the cracks of the broken spirit and fill them with comfort.." - RJ Lannan
