Wishing Tree 06:25
I spend every night on my knees In the shadow of a wishing tree Branches swaying in the evening sun I sit and think about the things I’ve done Oh my darling, oh my gal Careful what you ask of me Only thing I’m good for now Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree Crossed my heart beside the wishing brook Trying to salvage what the bad years took But in the ripples and the dark below Only answer was an undertow Oh my darling oh my gal Careful where you drop your hook Only thing I’m good for now Is casting out into the wishing brook Threw my money in the wishing pool Just like every other desperate fool Trying to tempt the gods and change my fate Just a little too little too late Oh my darling oh my gal I love a story where the dream comes true Only thing I’m good for now Is throwing money in the wishing pool Oh my darling oh my gal Can’t get a thing in this life for free Only thing I’m good for now Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree

Damage 03:13
I’m coming with you And we’re gonna see what kind of damage We’re gonna see what kind of damage we can do Tie me to you And we’re gonna see what kind of damage We’re gonna see what kind of damage we can do Every inch of open road is beckoning Every empty wall awaits our thousand pictures Tell the world it’s headed for a reckoning I’m coming with you And we’re gonna see what kind of damage We’re gonna see what kind of damage we can do Tie me to you And we’re gonna see what kind of damage We’re gonna see what kind of damage we can do Every empty moment is an opening Every little blade of grass a song worth singing Gonna make the air move with these broken wings I’m coming with you And we’re gonna see what kind of damage We’re gonna see what kind of damage we can do

Just enough Just a little taste to make you angry Just enough Just the faintest hint of risk and beauty Fall in love With the great unknown, the fog, the mystery Fall in love We’ll tip the bottle, drain the cup We’ll make it last forever Tear out my heart and stand it up Against these weights and measures Just enough To make you wonder where the road is going Just enough to make you think about the part not showing Fall in love With the things you’re better off not knowing Fall in love We’ll dance ourselves to sleep at night We’ll push our mouths together Reach out and pull me towards the light Behind these weights and measures Birds sing in hollow trees tonight Above the blooming heather There is another world behind This world of weights and measures

To the birds that sing in cages To the birds trying to sing in the dark While you watch the world in stages Taking piece after piece of your heart Beat back the night Tell it to leave you alone To the birds that sing in cages Hope in time you can find your way home Beat back the night Tell it to leave you alone To the birds that sing by the window To the birds being chased down the hall To the birds that should be in meadows Not trapped between ceilings and walls Fight your way out Back to the brambles you know To the birds that sing in cages Hope in time you can find your way home Hope in time you can fly you’re way home
