Phoenix _ Martina:
All move so fast here,
No one can last here,
Lucky for us dear,
Round and round we go.Darling, the turn is resistance
Do you, I do
Forgettin’ to follow your instinct
Do you, I doI will stay for this last transformation,
From where we start it soon gets precarious
I will stay for this last transformation,
Beauty and tragedy released in the end.Here now we’re kneeling,
Now we’re revealing,
Purge every feeling ,
As we turn to dust.Don’t get yourself in mischief,
Do you, you don’t, do you,
Together whatever the distance,
To you, I'll come to you.I will stay for this last transformation,
Flares in arcs will lead us out to sea,
Far above you the stars light the heavens,
Beauty and tragedy released in the end.Out in the distance,
Blue god encrypted,
Phoenix persistant,
Round and round we go.__
Carnies _ Martina: __
Ferris Wheels and Cotton Candy
Folks try to stall as the kids get antsy
They sit there complaining there’s nothing else to do
So we pick up our coats and go down to the fair
Who knows what we’ll find when we get there?
Eyes will be streaming, faces split in twoCarnies have come to town
If they stay will you hang around?
Lately where have you gone?
I’ve been waiting for so long
When will you come back?Say what you want life’s too good to be true
Jump-start me after I’m thru the sun-roof
Soon I’ll be home but I don’t know if you will too
April Grove
[lyrics by James Barbour, originally a song by Chrysalis]_ Martina: __
Watching the silent wings of
Robber Fly
I contemplate his victims
As they dieNo one sheds a tear
No one interferes
Life will come and go this year
In April GroveUnder the moldy leaves some
Springtails stay
They hardly ever see the
Light of dayTill you scratch away
At their roof of clay
Then they always jump away
In April GroveApril Grove
I'm an alien
In clothing in your realm
I’m alone
I’m invading
But you're holding me near
And I’m overwhelmed getting stonedWatching meanderings of swallowtails
Following thistle blossom
Pollen trails
Sipping flower juice
In the sun profuse
Between shadows seeping through
To April GroveApril Grove
I'm an alien
In clothing in your realm
I’m alone
I’m invading
But you're holding me near
And I’m overwhelmed getting stonedWatching meanderings of swallowtails
Following thistle blossom
Pollen trails
No one interferes
No one ever hears
Life will come and go this year
In April Grove
Baby Blue _ Martina:
I don't think you should wait not a minute more;
She's a girl that you've been waiting for.
Funny how the noises that I'm making,
Can't drown the sound of my heart breaking.Baby Blue, I don't know what to do when you call to me.
Baby Blue, I never really knew I belonged to you.Just one brief glance was all that I needed to,
Believe that you might feel what I feel for you.
In the night I wake up after breathing,
No [???], you're calling to me am I dreaming?Baby Blue, I don't know what to do when you call to me.
Baby Blue, I never really knew I belonged to you.No ageless trance will rush up to meet me and feign,
The love will remain.Baby Blue, I don't know what to do when you call to me.
Baby Blue, I never really knew I belonged to you.For there's a [???] if only I find a blue,
In the night, into his room.
Brush his lips, wait 'till the morning,
In his eyes a new love dawning.Baby Blue, I don't know what to do when you call to me.
Baby Blue, I never really knew I belonged to you.__
Shangri La _ Martina: __
See me, I see you too
There’s no strings to what we do
It’s a wireless phase and the camera stays
I bend into place, a Maria full of GraceAnd I wonder if you could do
All I do for youAnd it’s so original and it’s so beautiful
I can see me in the way you are
Knowing everywhere I go you’re my picture on the wall
I see me in the way I am
When I reach town, baby I’m a touchdown
I see us in the way we are
And I’m running for a train and I’m coming home again
And then maybe I can slowdownWalk in a circle
Trying to find our way homeIt’s cruel to detain me
Unbuckle and deplane me
A wireless phase and the camera says
I bend into place a Maria full of GraceDo you know what I do for you
Know what I do, do youAnd it’s so beautiful and it’s so original
I can see me in the way you are
Knowing everywhere I go you’re my picture on the wall
I see me in the way I am
When I reach town, baby I’m a touchdown
I see us in the way we are
And I’m running for a train and I’m coming home again
And then maybe I can slow downWalk in a circle
Finding our way home
Run in a circle
Finding our way home…
Valentine _ Martina: __
It's oh so late to start wishing
This heart of mine, you're gonna own
They fade away and now you're here
I didn't know
It's only you....Valentine....
Go out in the lightWhy suffer back in the game
All living, all our sin the same
All the faithful heal, they're all praying
They refer toValentine....
Oh, returnThey release you then you turn to see
Make it feel alright
The only thing is that I didn't
I tried to climb but fell on home
I feel around and still your here
Your coming home But before you do...Valentine
Go out in the lightOut in the moonlit sky
I saw you….

Just the memory of you It feels like poison Still the memory of you It feels like poison It kills like poison Why you do
the things you do?
If not for
you
Make a wish
and blow it out
If not for
you
It feels like
poison

Hello, come in Surprise you win After hanging your town It's all that I've gone You're living in a dream Too late when
you say
Where were
you baby
Feel so razor
tongued
Too late when
you say
Where were
you baby

Could you imagine Lying with me Etched / edged in skin I won’t let you go Could you sit
up there
Uuuuh, uuuuh….
Hmmmm I’m safe again
Not used to
nothing
Uuuuh, uuuuh… Yesterday
Hmmmm…. Yesterday
