False Spring 02:30
When they boarded the private plane When the boys in Houston said "All systems are go" They set themselves against the moon Knowing full well what it might do There was an icy glare Till rocket fuel inflamed the air Florida's change of season is the beholder's eye And Florida had it's reasons for setting our hopes sky high Panhandle warming, another January morning The shuttle reincarnate is a road Now westward the barefoot artist makes his way Each thing he sees he calls by its name A screaming comes across the sky Mistook the climate for the weather's turns Another case of the dreamer's disease Should a fine day break on God's green earth Who else but dreamers will believe? In the headlights' glare One last gulp sacred air In Florida, winters seem to wear spring's disguise And Florida is the reason that the best of us have died

Springtime 03:24
There's a little bit of springtime in the back of my mind Remembers when there was a time when we danced and we laughed Spent some time drinking wine And some where in there is a little child Without a doubt that with every cloud, a silver line is worn And everything is new And everything is clean And everything is free And there were still so many things to see So many things So many things left to be One small drop in the middle of a big sea Of high and mighty things Fascination grows larger than life Your brand new appetite As though we'd inventived it And we dance Theres a little but of spring time in the back of mind Remembers things perhaps as they should have been Rather than the lies, rather than the cruelty That sometimes we were guilty of As everybody knows, we were only young And really couldn't have known We were very young But its nice to know that theres a place to go Theres still so many things left to say You're a drop in the middle of a big sea Of high and mighty things Your facsination grows larger than life Your brand new appetite And that spring time in my mind and I'd rather be alive As though we'd invented it And we danced It could be the longest time And i'll remember it We don't know what's in store When we laugh

My voluntary exile Just like the three denials: Came before the break of day Where I was from That’s how unconditional love was repaid The familiar and the serene Couldn’t compete with The billion other me’s On glowing screens In wish-fulfilling scenes So soon the moment came I knew I’d leave Where I was from I learned about the sentimental type I learned what becomes of those Who can't accept that their innocence has died Where I was from The accents are strange Where I was from They’re set in their ways Where I was from Roam the ghosts of my life Where I was from Is where I will die Who will lead me back To the ceremony of innocence To what it was, and what it meant Who will lead me?

A Separation 03:45
It's just moment in time It was never meant to last Just because we're in a golden age don't mean it won't pass The world as it is or as we it want to be? Anticipation and nostalgia alternating for eternity Yeah, face the facts No preparation could prevent what's changed There's no turning back A separation: who's to say if it's too late? Is it too late? Some will spend their lives dwelling on the glory days "Easy come, easy go" that's what they say Some spend their lives a step ahead of their dreams Running 'round in circles, running eternally It's a simple fact Jack There's no going back

Here's a glue guy, a performance god A makeshift shrine, or newly lain sod Hardly even trying, gives the nod I sure hope I'm not the type to dwell Hope I'm a fast healer, fast as hell Heaven is a better place today Because of this, but the world is just not the same If and when you get into the end zone Act like you've been there a thousand times before Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time any more A toonie to the busker And a husky, "keep it coming" under my breath But then said, "Though if you wouldn't mind Less crying and more trying" More trying and less crying I'm not the type to dwell I'm a fast healer, fast as hell Heaven is a better place today Because of this, but the world is just not the same Oh if and If and when you get into the end zone Act like you've been there a thousand times before Don't blame, but don't say people lose people all the time any more Don't say people lose people all the time any more If and when you get into that end zone Act like you've been there a thousand times before Don't change, but don't say people lose people all the time any more It's just not the same Because of this It's not the same Heaven is a better place today because of this But the world is just not the same Oh, if and, if and when you get into the end zone Act like you've been there a thousand times before Don't blame, don't say people lose people all the time anymore Don't say people lose people all the time anymore If and when you get into that end zone Act like you've been there a thousand times before Don't change but don't say people lose people all the time anymore Ooh, it's just not the same because of this Ooh, it's not the same
