Real Fine Love
Seven Little Indians
Child of the Wild Blue Yonder
Back Of My Mind
Stolen Moments
Bring Back Your Love To Me
The Rest Of The Dream
Thirty Years Of Tears
Rock Back Billy
Listening To Old Voices
Through Your Hands
You were dreamin'
On a park bench
'bout the broad highway somewhere
When the music from the carillon
Seemed to hurl your heart out there
Past the scientific darkness
Past the fireflies that float
To an angel bending down
To wrap you in her warmest coat
And you ask
What am I not doing
She says
Your voice cannot command
In time you will move mountains
And it will come through your hands
Still you argue for an option
Still you angle for your case
Like you wouldn't know a burning bush
If it blew up in your face
Yeah, we scheme about the future
And we dream about the past
When just a simple reaching out
Might build a bridge that lasts
And you ask
What am I not doing
She says
Your voice cannot command
In time you will move mountains
And it will come through your hands
Through your hands
So whatever your hands find to do
You must do with all your heart
There are thoughts enough
To blow men's minds
And tear great worlds apart
There's a healing touch to find you
On that broad highway somewhere
To lift you high
As music flyin'
Through the angels' hair
Don't ask what you are not doing
Because your voice cannot command
In time we will move mountains
And it will come through your hands
One Kiss
