the Flood 05:12
We had a week of Summer rain; shiny lights and pavement. The neon signs were red and green. AUTO PARTS and TONY'S BAR. And in the night I heard the rain hammering on windows. And when I finale got to sleep I dreamed of water rising. Above the town there was a lake called "The Peaceful Widow", that by the hand of man was shaped like a flying sparrow. The water fell by day and night as the lake was rising. And when a crack broke through the dam our God never saw it. The water fell by day and night as the lake was rising. And when a crack broke through the dam our God never saw it. And in the night I heard the rain hammering on windows. And when I finale got to sleep I dreamed of water rising. We had a week of Summer rain; shiny lights and pavement. The neon signs were red and green. AUTO PARTS and TONY'S BAR. And in the night we heard a sound like an army rolling. and at the crack of dawn I cried for not a house was standing.

High Tide 05:56
Bddy hopes for another sunny day. He looks up at the moon, than he looks my way. Maybe tomorrow we can go to the beach. The high tide may bring us some peace. Buddy don't look at me that way. I said I was sorry, for what, I said today. High tide, Low tide. O baby. you know that I love you. Buddy walks down stairs and down to the bay. The full moon, and street lights, light his way. Maybe tomorrow we can go to the beach. The high tide may bring us some peace. Buddy don't look at me that way. I said I was sorry, for what, I said today. High tide, Low tide. O baby. you know that I love you Buddy I'm sorry, for what. I said today. I don't want to hurt you, in any way. High tide, Low tide. O baby. you know that I love you. Buddy I'm sorry, for what. I said today. I don't want to hurt you, in any way. High tide, Low tide. O baby. you know that I love you. Buddy don't look at me that way. I said I was sorry, for what, I said today. High tide, Low tide. O baby. you know that I love you.

Quartets 04:39
Saturday is a windy day. A little rain falls against his face. April showers have come in may. On a fountain the rain makes concentric circles on the waves. Somewhere in the town a piano plays. He looks everywhere for symphonies, but all he ever gets are beautiful quartets. He watches cars drive down the street. A little water splashes on his feet. A little thunder, like timpani. And in the theater where he waits people take there seats and the lights fade. somewhere in the town rain coms down. He looks everywhere for symphonies, but all he ever gets are beautiful quartets. Saturday is a windy day. A little rain falls against his face. April showers have come in may. And he looks everywhere for symphonies, but all he ever gets are beautiful quartets.
