Dig Deep

I think you may have forgotten the power of that womb in your belly
I know that you have been held underwater, now I know that you’re ready
I can see through it all; you’ve been hiding from the gifts you’ve been given
You’ve got to know now that this is your time
Dig deep to your wisdom
You’ve seen this coming in your dreams all along
and you know what is needed
Holding you’re breath for the hint of the dawn and I know you can feel it
I think it’s time you remember the power of the gifts you’ve been given
You’ve got to know now that this is your time
Dig deep to your wisdom and
Reach out your hand into infinite dark and creator will catch you
I know it feels like you’re killing yourself, but spirit won’t let you
I know it seems like the end of the world, but this is just the beginning
I see that this is the fight of your life and you are already winning
Dig deep to your wisdom and shine
You are a healer, you’re a weaver of worlds; let the medicine move you
You are a vessel with a message from god, just let it come through you
Invite the worship for the goddess you are and the courage you’re bringing
You’ve got to know you’re a gift from the stars; have faith in your vision
Dig deep to your wisdom and
Reach out your hand into infinite dark and creator will catch you
I know it feels like you’re killing yourself, but spirit won’t let you
I know it seems like the end of the world, but this is just the beginning
I see that this is the fight of your life and you are already winning
Dig deep to your wisdom and
Shine on you beautiful daughter of mine and we will light up this darkness
My love is driving my stake in the ground; may this moon be my witness
Ignite the healing in the hearts of the world and it will all be forgiven
I know we’re none of us in this alone
But I need you my women
And these gifts we’ve been given
Dig deep to your wisdom and shine

Wake

I know you
I’ve seen you somewhere before in a whole other light
And well, oh yes, I know why you’re familiar now
‘cause I have been you in a whole other life
You know me
I think I’m falling every time and I wouldn’t have it any other way
and well, I guess there’s times I’ve been misunderstood
but I just didn’t know that I wasn’t ready
I know love
I see it everywhere in the eyes of the folks that I meet
and well, I guess there’s times when there’s been heartache
but the damage there’s been done and I’ve made my peace
I know love
I see it everywhere in the eyes of a girl named Jolene
and I can’t help but think about that city boy when I wake up in the rain
and I wake up singing

Run

Hey, what’s your hurry girl
Take it slow and steady
You will get where you’re going to
When you’re good and ready
You’ve gotta go
You’ve gotta run run run run run
And you’ve gotta go
‘Till you are long long long long gone
Hey, are you listening
Pretty full moon lady
Tell me, when you are traveling
Tell me, what will you carry
You don’t know
You’ve just gotta run run run run run
And you’ve gotta go
‘Till you are long long long long gone
Hey where you headed now
Better slow that running
Better breathe from your belly girl
Another day is coming
Where you’ve gotta go
You’ve gotta run run run run run
And you’ve gotta go
‘Till you are long long long long gone
Yeah you’ve gotta go
You’ve gotta run run run run run
And you’ve gotta go
‘Till you are long long long long gone

Lighthouse

I’m sitting in your room
And I am playing your old guitar
I kinda want to know how your day went
I kinda want to know how you are
‘Cause you are sitting in your boat
in the middle of a hurricane
And I can tell that you’ve capsized
And I can tell that you’re so afraid
And I know you’ve got a lot of monsters to battle while you’re sailing home
So baby, do your worst & come home
‘Cause I can tell the water’s churning
And I can tell that you are praying for air
And I can tell that there is thunder
And I can tell that there is lightning there
But I cannot be your lifeboat
And I cannot be the wind in your sails
And I know you’ve got a lot of demons to wrestle while you’re sailing home
So baby, give ‘em all you got & come home
Baby, give ‘em all you got & come home
‘Cause I don’t want to be your lifeboat
And I don’t want to be the wind in your sails
And I can tell that there is thunder
And I can tell that you are praying for air
And I know I cannot save you
Because I know you’ve got to save yourself
And I know you’ve got a lot of ashes to scatter while you’re sailing home
So go be with your ghosts & come home
I know you’re lost & I know you’re alone
And I know you’ll find your way & come home
I just want to be a lighthouse
I’m just trying to be a lighthouse
I’m just sitting here in my lighthouse

Hollow Wooden Box

I went up to the mountain just the other day
I kissed the ground beneath me and I prayed
Where has all my courage gone?
How come I can’t hear my song?
This is what the mountain had to say
She said
Oh, the less that you carry
The less you’ll need, the less you’ll need
And oh, the less that you gather
The less you’ll leave, yeah the less you’ll leave
And oh, the less that you worry
The more the world will bring, the more this world will bring
Yeah, ‘cause everything I have ever wanted is here
In this hollow wooden box
& these wound up metal strings
& this open hopeful heart
& the little song it sings
I went down to the ocean, my doubt & me
I poured it into a bottle & I sent it out to sea
How come I can’t trust the flow?
How come I can’t let this go?
This is what the water said to me
She said
Oh, the less that you carry
The less you’ll need, the less you’ll need
And oh, the less that you gather
The less you’ll leave, yeah the less of a mess you’ll leave
And oh, the less that you worry
The more the world will bring, the more this world will bring
Yeah, ‘cause everything I have ever wanted is here
In this hollow wooden box
& these wound up metal strings
& this open hopeful heart
& the little song it sings
I ask myself these questions almost every day
This is what my spirit has to say
She says
Oh, the less that you carry
The less you’ll need, the less you’ll need
And oh, the less that you gather
The less you’ll leave, yeah the less of a mess we’ll all leave
And oh, the less that you worry
The more the world will bring, the more this world will bring
Yeah, ‘cause everything I have ever wanted is here
In this hollow wooden box
& these wound up metal strings
& this little open hopeful honest moment, yeah
& this little song I sing, this little song I sing
Yeah this open hopeful honest moment, yeah
In this hollow wooden box
& these wound up metal strings
& this open hopeful heart
& the little song it sings
& this open honest moment
& the little songs we sing
The little songs we sing
The little songs we sing

Tenth Avenue
04:55
|

It’s just so easy in the here & now
You ring your bell & I’ll ring mine
And when we’re talking we will try & save the world
And when we’re restless we will ride
And even though it’s long out of our way
I think we’ll go tenth avenue
It doesn’t look like it’ll rain today
And it’s worth it to be with you
I could live forever here on this old bike
I could live forever here on these old wheels
I could stay forever here if this whole world stayed the same
But you know what they say
This, too, shall change
And now the weight of holding on again
Well, it’s keeping me awake
‘Cause if the leaving feels like I’ve been blown apart
It’s like a haunting if you stay
Because with everything your fear has said
You’re like a ghost of who I knew
And even though I thought I hadn’t let you in, without knowing it
I built a life out here with you
I could live forever here in this old house
I could live forever here in these old jeans
I could stay forever here if this worn heart stayed the same
But you know what they say
This, too, shall change
The quiet humming of my bicycle
The way my legs go round & round
And how the centre of my gravity
Is this momentum that I’ve found
The only way to keep my balance now:
I’ll need to learn to let this go
The only way to keep from falling down:
You just keep moving down the road
I could have lived forever here in this bold love
I could have lived forever here in these wild ideas
I could stay forever here if we just hadn’t been afraid
So you know what they say
That maybe it’s better
‘Cause I could have lived forever here in this little life
I could be forever here with these simple dreams
I could stay forever here if this whole world stayed the same
But you know what they say
This, too, shall change

Faith
05:51

So, the other night I had this funny dream:
we were much bigger than we seemed
& we were never told we were too small to do something
Everyone around me had a hundred hands
& we had the most amazing plans
& we were never told we were too late to do something
In the light of morning I awoke afraid feeling like I just wasn’t made
Having all the strength that I would need to do something
And oh, I just can’t imagine what to do now with all of these nightmares coming true
all of these nightmares
And oh, I keep getting stronger
And the light’s getting longer
A little every day
And I know this life’s what we make it
And this world is too sacred to throw this all away
And I refuse to lose my faith in it now
Oh my friends, you know I think I understand:
we just listen to the spirit of this land
She would never tell us we’re too late to do something
And oh, don’t tell me you cannot feel the change
We are all of us wiser with our age, all of us wiser
And oh, I keep getting stronger
And the light’s getting longer
A little every day
And I know this life’s what we make it
And this world is too sacred to throw this all away
And I refuse to lose my faith in it now
And oh, I keep getting stronger
And the light’s getting longer
A little every day
And I know this life’s what we make it
And this world is too sacred to throw this all away
And I refuse to lose my faith in it now
If we try, we can ride the momentum
of the souls that came before us to light the way
Yeah I know we can make this thing better
We can do it together if we want to
‘Cause I, I refuse, yes I, for one, refuse to lose my faith in us now

Love is the Movement
05:53

There is this feeling it’s hard to ignore it now
I think the waiting is over, yeah
I know you can see it when you look in my eyes
The balance is shifting & people are waking up
And we stand at a crossroads, yeah
We make the choice from here, we decide
Fear is not the answer
Love is the movement
We are the ones we have been waiting for
They can hear us coming
And they're shaking in their boots
We are the ones we have been waiting for
It won’t be long now, the momentum is growing
Every moment we trust it brings us closer together than the day before
And I know that we’re frightened, but I know that we’re ready
And if this isn’t our time brothers and sisters,
well then what the hell are we waiting for
Fear is not the answer
Love is the movement
We are the ones we have been waiting for
They can hear us coming
And they're shaking in their boots
We are the ones we have been waiting for
I know you've been angry
I know you've been lied to
We are the ones we have been waiting for
Love is the answer
Love is the movement
We are the ones we have been waiting for
*Sing with your voices
Stand with your own two feet
We are the ones we have been waiting for
Because if we stand together
They will not move us
We are the ones we have been waiting for
Shine on your love light
It's long enough to see this through
We are the ones we have been waiting for
Trust in your heart now
Be brave and awaken
We are the ones we have been waiting for
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones we have been waiting for
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones we have been waiting for
We are the ones
We are the ones
We are the ones we have been waiting for
They can hear us coming
And they're shaking in their boots
We are the ones we have been waiting for

Wakey wakey
There's a storm in the making
It's coming is shaking you now to the depth of your soul
This sea is a woman
And it's only you you're fooling
better show her you know what you're doing or she will swallow you whole
You can try to name her
It doesn't matter: there's no way to tame her
You can't really blame her for making you go it alone
Find your centre
Your balance will ballast the weather
If you know who you are when you enter her she will carry you home
Oh Kilila
Silhouette on the horizon
Oh Kilila
Silhouetted on the horizon
Don't resist this
I can tell that you're scared you will miss this
But the weight of the world's in your kisses so keep your sorrow at bay
You can't hide it
& it'll kill you to try to fight it
Just give in to the wind, you're alright, ride the current and pray
Are you listening?
Her song is there in the distance
If you stay moored you will miss this and throw this journey away so
Hey, are you ready?
Hold the main line steady
Know where you're heading and she will show you the way
Oh Kilila
Silhouette on the horizon
Oh Kilila
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Brother, Surrender: you know that she knows better
With awe and wonder, go be her lover
Light is fading, better not keep her waiting
Don't hurry the tides, can you feel her water rise
Oh Kilila
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Silhouetted on the horizon
Oh Kilila
Oh Kilila
Oh Kilila
Oh Kilila
