Track Name: Dream
I call to the mountain, mountainside
I am tired and worn but it is justified
I could sing, sing, sing, oh

I carry my basket through the hay
The oak tree tells tales and the birds serenade
They sing, sing, sing, oh

This is all I could ask for in life
To not fear to die

I nap on the field where the daisies lay
and dream that my life would consent to this day
I will dream, dream, dream, oh
I will dream, dream, dream, oh
Track Name: In Calico
Last night I dreamed in calico
With simple hues of blue
I maundered through a sweet meadow
And rested on It's wool

Before I drift to sleep
I mourn the memories
that are mere memories
Straying to the deep

Before I drift to sleep
A somber tear may weep
A saddened song of grief
That was my memory
Track Name: Another Day Come
Another day come
and another day gone
Oh, Where will tomorrow be?

The sun is returning
and spring has now sprung
And I am feeling a shift in me

I feel I have said
All I can sing in song
But I vow to go onward
In search of the dawn
I will tend to all of these weeds
This garden waits for me
And I am bound for thee
Track Name: My darling, my sweetheart, my dear
My darling, my sweetheart, my dear,
I have watched you for so many years
and though my kingdom, so different from yours
we spot alike so many shores

And from high in my tower I see
I don't know what all of this waiting is for

Will I know then?
Will I be contended?
Will there be an end?
Will I know then?

I am so wilted
I need a nightingale
Some sweet bird to sing to me
To be carried to the sea
Softly sailing on those many shores
My darling, my sweetheart, my dear
My darling my sweetheart, oh my dear
Track Name: Sun song
I am glad to see the sun came out
I am glad to see my garden sprouting
Up the seed from underneath

I am glad to see the sky is blue
And time I dare not waste
It is too sweet to live in fear

I watch the foxes leap for joy
The tiny blossoms falling from the trees
It is too sweet to be asleep
Track Name: Sticky burrs
I traveled to this land I love
With my dear lover's hand in mine
We arrived on a day where the sky was so blue
and the sun shined It's way through the pines

I grew fond of a prairie, I'd dreamed it for years
where my darling and I could play
With the heart of a child, and the view of our mountain
where our little brown cabin did lay

We wandered our way through that golden place
With some dear, old friends on my lace
And I picked you out and I held you to my face,
and thought, "I too never dream to leave this place."

Sticky burrs,
I feel you in the wind and in my hair
I'l let you stay but just for a while
Our journey can't stop here
Oh, our journey can't stop here
