I don't belong to you girl
You don't belong to me
Nobody gives you freedom
We're all of us born free
What you decide to do girl
Is who you decide to be
And you know I chose
To believe in you
Looking like it's getting better
Looking like it'll all work out
Feeling like I just might matter
Coming through the pain and doubt
Made it through the long cold winter
Feeling good to feel the sun
Finally see the ice floe melting
Finally watch the river run
I don't belong to you girl
You don't belong to me
Nobody gives you freedom
We're all of us born free
What you decide to do girl
Is who you decide to be
And you know I chose
To believe in you
I've been a man for a long time
But a woman's born anew each day

Born In The Morning
03:24

I was born in the morning of that terrible day
when they come without warning and took your love away
I was given to visions foretold in the signs
At the head of divisions I was made for desperate times
And I know how it must seem
to wake and find your whole life's nothing but a dream
And I know how it must feel
to love that dream so badly nothing comes out real
I was born in the morning now I live for the night
in the shelter of shadows and the glow of firelight
I came after the ending neither silence or sound
No lies or pretending I'm the one who burned it down
And I know how it must hurt
to see the love you treasure ground into the dirt
And I know how must it sting
to stand in hopeless awe at the end of everything

Surf's Down

Somebody gonna let you down I know
Somebody gonna lead you through that door
Somebody gonna catch you lying
Somebody gonna make you cry
Nobody gonna say it's not your fault
All your dreams will turn to rust
while waiting for the morning bus
Did what you could do what you must
No love can grow from broken trust
I know
Nobody gonna catch you when you fall
Nobody gonna answer when you call
And everybody knows it's nothing
when anybody says they're sorry
Nobody gonna save you anymore
Down come rain to wash you clean
you rue the day you made the scene
The things you say the things you mean
No love can grew from in between
I know

I don't have the time
to worry 'bout your life
Problems all my own
keep me up at night
But you been on mind
ever since the get go
When I crossed that line
down in San Jacinto

Man For Man

Had a dream I met a guy
Six foot three in a suit and tie
He caught me looking and he wasn't shy
Said, "I know you're hurting, now just tell me why"
When I think of it now I start to cry
Took me down to the Wishing Well
Look in his eyes like a magic spell
Beating of my heart like a tolling bell
He said, "I won't ask if you don't tell"
When I think of it now I go straight to Hell
When I woke I had a chill
Knot in my stomach like a doctor's bill
Found a letter on my windowsill
He wrote, "You think you won't, but I know you will"
I think I won't but I know I will

Uptown Lover

Got myself a lover
she lives two trains away
Crosstown on the 7 uptown on the A
I met her up in Harlem
it was my lucky day
She said, "I don't want your problems,
just some witty repartee"
You know I try
You gotta try
'cause it's a do or die
Got myself a lover
I didn't have a choice
When I asked about your new best friend
I heard it in your voice
You say you didn't mean to
no one ever does
I know you didn't mean to
it happens just because
You know I try
You gotta try
I'm that kind of guy
You say extra love is easy
take that number cross that line
But I know hard work when I see it
you'll get yours and still be mine?
You been talking I been listening
true love waits eternally
I'll do anything you want
but no one makes a fool of me
And so I try
you gotta try
Step into the light
Got myself a lover
she lives two trains away
Crosstown on the 7 uptown on the A
She said, "I think you're crazy
but hey man, it's your life
I'm glad you only lay me
I'm glad I'm not your wife"
You know I try
you gotta try
'cause it's a do or die

Well Being
03:43

Gonna take a drive out by the airport
gonna have a wander by the sea
Finally gonna find out what I'm good for
Finally gonna find what's there for me
If I go, will I stay locked inside your broken heart
as you kneel and you pray for your world to blow apart
And you try to be true to the things that you believe
What I need is to perceive you been working on well being
Everybody got their situation
Everybody got their reason why
Everybody thinks it's complicated
Everybody so afraid to fly
When I go, I'll be gone and I'm never coming back
Days are short, nights are long as I travel down that track
And I try to be true to the things that I believe
What I need is to perceive I been working on well being
When I go, you'll miss me
But you'll see, what you need was
to be free
