Can you trust a dream? Slippin' underneath your pillow in the moon Crawlin' in your head even if there isn’t room Can you trust a dream? Does it melt your mind? Makin' honey of the frozen streams you’ve built Isn’t it funny when a rigid river spills In your melted mind? Oh there’s plenty of time, my darling, to be rigid as a stone Just worry what feels like home? Just worry do you feel at home? Do you feel it in your bones? Oh there’s plenty of time, my darling, to be rigid as a stone Just worry what feels like home? Just worry do you feel at home? Do you feel it in your bones? Can you trust a dream? Slippin' underneath your pillow in the moon Crawlin' in your head even if there isn’t room Can you trust a dream? Oh there’s plenty of time, my darling, to be rigid as a stone Just worry what feels like home? Just worry do you feel at home? Do you feel it in your bones? Oh there’s plenty of time, my darling, to be rigid as a stone Just worry what feels like home? Just worry do you feel at home? Do you feel it in your bones? Can you trust a dream?

Goodnight golden county, I've been waiting far too long To admit how I love you, but that stayin' here for now is so wrong Saw a girl chasin' freedom, sweepin' highways, takin' time And with each changin' season, I could feel her feet were calling to mine I know I'll be back someday Trust that I won't feel the need to stay away (like they all seem to) I said I'd be back someday, And that I won't feel the need to stay away (cuz trust me I do love you oh) When I am gone Golden County, I'll be sailin' streams and following stars But fear not Golden County, they'll be silver while the gold is still ours I'll be out chasin' freedom, leavin' sun and takin' moon as my guide But as snow melts to poppies, I'll leave the silver for your gold countryside I said I'd be back someday Trust that I won't feel the need to stay away (like they all seem to) I know I'll be back someday And that I won't feel the need to stay away (cuz trust me I do love you oh) I said I'd be back someday Trust that I won't feel the need to stay away (like they all seem to) I know I'll be back someday And that I won't feel the need to stay away (cuz trust me I do love you) I know I'll be back someday Trust that I won't feel the need to stay away (like they all seem to) I know I'll be back someday And that I won't feel the need to stay away (cuz trust me I do love you oh)

Broken cities empty fast when lights are more than day Try to last a couple nights, a fickle game to play When I just wanna fly away When I just wanna find my way Broken cities take my eyes with wry fluorescent pleas But dimmer vision satisfies the ones who cannot see They just wanna fly away They just wanna find their way They just wanna fly away They just wanna find their way Thanks to this broken place, reminding me it's time to turn To turn from the blinding lights, and to this sight I've come to learn Thanks to this broken place, reminding me it's time to turn To turn from the blinding lights, and to this sight I've come to learn Broken cities try to sell a kingdom in a box Silver jesters dance and sing, but always come to mock That you just wanna fly away You just wanna find your way Broken cities disinfect, then cauterize our minds Clean em' out, then close em' up, in hopes that we don't find We just wanna fly away We just wanna find our way We just wanna fly away We just wanna find our way Thanks to this broken place, reminding me it's time to turn To turn from the blinding lights, and to this sight I've come to learn Thanks to this broken place, reminding me it's time to turn To turn from the blinding lights, and to this sight I've come to learn

Fall soft like the rain when you need to fall Lift people up like your bones have got a little salt Spin and dance with the rising sun Make rhythm with the rocky shores you touch Oh, live like water lives Oh, live like water lives Be bold like the storms of June and July Go gently with the fading afternoon light Kiss like the mist, carress like the sea Run brave as a river, far and free Oh, live like water lives Oh, live like water lives Be open like the ocean’s plain Shift free like the waves, so unrestrained Make love with the light when the thunder clears Rule your changing atmosphere Oh, live like water lives Oh, live like water lives Oh, live like water lives Oh, live like water lives
