The Great Divide There's a hollow in this heart There's an empty ricochet Wanting for it to be filled I'm waiting for the break of day And all the while I'm wanting to Reach out to you Like the rose conceals a thorn Like the daisy and that rhyme Where the petals are picked off One at a time And all the while I'm wanting to Reach that place with you CHORUS: And all we're needing Is to climb that great divide Where words and time lose meaning When you look me in the eyes There's a hollow in this heart There's an empty ricochet Watching all that we have built Watch it all slipping away And all the while I'm wanting to Reach out to you And all we're needing Is to climb that great divide Where words and time lose meaning When you look me in the eyes There's a hollow in this heart There's an empty ricochet

Hey 03:03
Hey by Wendy DeMos Hey ...   Got the wind in my hair Wildflowers everywhere Ocean to my right Delight Got Berkeley to my back Big Sur's right on track.   Driving in my car. Wondering how you are Saw you yesterday And you seemed to be okay   This trip planned for two On the road me and you But plans go astray Ours did and you stayed Though I'm missing you a lot I'm thankful for what I've got   Driving in my car Tunes so loud they drown me out Life looks good from where I sit If there's a heaven This is it. Hey ...   The freedom of the road Feeds this feeling in my heart to overflow I love you. You know I do. I love you. And the road too.   Got the wind in my hair Wildflowers everywhere Ocean to my right Delight Got Berkeley to my back Big Sur's right on track   Driving in my car Wondering how you are And while the road tells me to stay Either way, we'll do okay.   Hey ...

Did You Lie 02:42
Did You Lie Music and lyrics by Wendy DeMos Did you lie around the ceiling Did you lie around the doors Did the sparks never really happen Making love on the kitchen floor Did you lie about the music That you found too juvenile Try to take it if you want Try to break it if you want Did you lie about the songs That felt like I'd birthed a little child Did my voice never really move you Or add kindling to your fire Were you lying when you touched me Each time I walked into the room Try to take it if you want Try to break it if you want Instrumental Hide behind the lies Hide behind the lies Did you lie about your feelings When you said you wanted more Was it just a poet's moment With you the ocean Me the shore Were you lying when you touched me Each time I walked into the room Try to take it if you want Try to break it if you want Try to take it if you want Try to break it if you want Try to take it if you want Try to break it if you want Try to take it if you want You can try to break it if you want But you won't No you won't Break me

Summer's Goodbye Leaves turn red and to gold Air is crisp It's almost cold And it's the end of summer And in my heart an ending too As my heart learns to let go of you. Wise words they shine my light As I read by the fireside for the night In the distance I can hear Wild geese They're flying near And I say goodbye to where we were Like leaves let go for winter Getting ready to renew It's a cold backdrop to heal this heart Frozen promise of the new Leaves turn red and to gold Soon the ground will cover up with snow Blanket for the past And cover for the pain When the only thing to warm me Is knowing I'll renew again When the only thing to warm me Is knowing I'll renew
