Found A Picture Of You

“Tomorrow on the Runway” – Karen Peris

Old days, don't come to find me
The sun is just about to climb up over there
While my heart is sinking, I do not want my voice
To go out into the air

Did you leave the darkness without me?
You're always miles ahead
And you're standing in tomorrow on the runway

Oh, be the music in my head
The air around my bed
Oh, be my rest
Replace the small disgraces of the times and places
That I never really left

Did you leave the darkness without me?
You're always miles ahead
And you're standing in tomorrow on the runway

Oh, I want to fly, fly forward into the light
Be alive, to come alive
On the leaf-bright Friday drive
Sudden horses at the red light
Turn around, see clearer ways to go now

“All Through the Night” – Jules Shear

All through the night
I'll be awake and I'll be with you
All through the night
This precious time when time is new
Oh, all through the night today
Knowing that we feel the same without saying

We have no past, we won't reach back
Keep with me forward all through the night
And once we start the meter clicks
And it goes running all through the night
Until it ends, there is no end

All through the night
Stray cat is crying so stray cat sings back
All through the night
They have forgotten what by day they lack
Oh under those white street lamps
There is a little chance they may see

We have no past, we won't reach back
Keep with me forward all through the night
And once we start the meter clicks
And it goes running all through the night
Until it ends, there is no end

Oh the sleep in your eyes is enough
Let me be there let me stay there awhile

We have no past, we won't reach back
Keep with me forward all through the night
And once we start the meter clicks
And it goes running all through the night
Until it ends there is no end
Keep with me forward all through the night
And once we start the meter clicks
And it goes running all through the night
Until it ends there is no end

“Shake Sugaree” – Elizabeth Cotten

Have a little song
Won't take long
Sing it right
Once or twice

Oh, lordy me
Didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawned my watch
Pawned my chain
Pawned everything that was in my name

Oh, lordy me
Didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawned my chair
Pawned my bed
Ain't got nowhere to lay my head

Oh, lordy me
Didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned

Have a little secret
I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven

And I’m not going to hell

Oh, lordy me
Didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned

“Back on the Chain Gang” – Chrissie Hynde

I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
It hijacked my world at night
From a place in the past
We've been cast out of, oh oh oh oh
Now we're back in the fight

Yes we're back on the chain gang
Whoa, back on the chain gang

A circumstance beyond our control, oh oh oh oh
The phone, the TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh oh oh oh
Sand in our eyes, descending like flies

Yes we're back on the chain gang
Whoa back on the chain gang

The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you

But I'll die as I stand here today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us part

I found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh
They were the happiest days of my life
Like a break in the battle was your part, oh oh oh oh
Lonely heart, lonely hearts

Yes we're back on the chain gang
Oh back on the chain gang (chain gang)

“When You Go” – Jennie Lowe Stearns

The sun doesn’t shine like it used to

It’s bright still but it’s cruel

A beautiful day it’s deceiving

A new light is cast now you’re leaving

But don’t forget to leave

When you go

Your coat still hangs where you left it

A cold cold breeze by the door

The promises we made on thin paper

Don’t hold true anymore

But don’t forget to leave

When you go

But don’t forget to leave

When you go

“1000 Blackbirds” – Tyler Ramsey

Oh don’t you see the blackbird

He’s high up in the tree

He’s clinging on the branches and he’s calling out to me

And can’t you hear him calling

To the others circling around

They’re cutting through the steady wind

And lighting on the ground

Raven shadow

Hopeless sorrow

I wish it was a songbird

With a voice so pure and bright

Dressed in a coat of golden with fires in his eyes

And a light would shine around him

He’d stay out there all night

His song would fill the air you breathe in the morning when he’d fly

No more shadow

No more sorrow

What does it take for changing

Theres nothing I won’t try

I’ll call a thousand blackbirds to come raining from the sky

Three hundred for your troubles

Three hundred one for mine

And for the pain that I caused you three hundred ninety nine

No more shadow

No more sorrow

No more shadow

No more sorrow
