Tall Buildings 03:04
lyrics
buy track
Good morning Texas How is your day? Did you sleep okay? Tall buildings scrape the sky but it never whines, it only cries The sun will never set on The sun will never set on The sun will never set on these skies these skies Paved parking lots appear- how they drive and where they steer sunsets fill up the air planes run through clouds and disappear The sun will never set on The sun will never set on The sun will never set on these skies these skies these skies these skies

Uno dos tres quatro cinqo seis uno dos tres everybody claps and says Well Señor Bird , if I were you I'd surely take advantage of those beautiful views offered by that starry skyline night after night You bet you bottom feather I'd be up there with you flying with you No more aeropuertos to connect amigos Uno uno makes dos as it seems overseas, that's a problem you see But you're not bogged down by these material things just a little oil spill in your wings sadly that's all it takes to ruin your splendid day your splendid life your splendid songs I go on and on I would like to fly away any city, night or day never have to migrate

I will let you borrow my corduroy jacket all you've got to do is ask of it I will let you wear it if you're feeling sad and lonely I will let it comfort you all night I don't want you to sweat if it gets lost, stolen or wet I will always find it in my heart What's that, my good friend, you don't need it any longer? well, neither do I. Neither did the guy who gave it to me so pass it along and sing this song pass it along and sing this song pass it along and sing this song pass it along and sing this song pass it along and sing this song, sing this song sing this song I will let you borrow my corduroy jacket; all you've got to do is ask of it.

Away, Away! 02:58
lyrics
buy track
Rain has come and I'm not right where I want to be Sitting here with you laughing, talking about nothing particular at all is that my fault? Lying here in bed my wishes they grow so tall how can seven days perpetuate and grow? 'til I see an eternity I must go I must walk away Why's my gait be so straight and forward progress? please permit the time to close my eyes and rest good news can have bad timing too well it's time and I love you
