A state of panic engulfs as I imagine.

Have I discovered my faults...

Where's my skirt and my other shoe!

"WHERES THE KIDS??" Be patient, be nice!

Maybe I'll say the flu's going round
NO, I can make it there's just...

But of my heart
Reader of the stars
Interpreter of my eyes
Someone just like me
Will enter my life
Not late, but very soon
And together we will build
A palace on the top
Of that lush green mountain
Our Kingdom will be named Eden
And we...

out of unchartered waters.

The Sea Level Is RisingThe Sea Level Is Rising
By Elton Camp
Back in the 1950s when I was a child
That sea level would rise seemed wild
Even those who thought that it might
Centuries into the future set that fright
It was only a concern for some distant day
But the reality has already...

I hear the train as it's whistle blows
lots of people here with places to go.
I stood on the deck of the station's gate
smiling because for this trip, I'm not late.
I...

Or if guitar is your hobby
If you're waiting at the lobby
Or if we drink
and we get groggy
It's not about...

This Town, This TimeIn this time , this town, you'd grow
In this town, this time, you'll feel at home

to crack the faultline,
your cup half full, half overflowing.
You stretch your legs and wings and mind and laugh
Find friends too easily,
and hand frayed throw...
