Love-Hate Relationship
Music & lyrics by Eric Hurlin, Gemma Cohen, Darla Murphy
I've been running far away
I've looked over every place
But still I return without grace
Like a moth to a flame
Can I tell you that I love you?
But how can I escape?
The things I know that I must do
Spending all of my time without you
I can't stop myself,
from loving you always
I can hear the music playin'
God knows it's been a long, long time
The songs of my love for you
Bring me back home
I can't stop myself
From loving you always
I can hear the music playin'
God knows its been a long, long time
The songs of my love for you
Bring me back home
Moonlight
Music by Eric Hurlin, lyrics by Darla Murphy and Gemma Cohen
Seeing you tonight,
Let's me forget the cold,
And darkness.
Your fingertips melt me,
Your kisses haunt me.
I'm down on my knees,
Holding my heart out for you,
Always for you.
My dreams cannot stray me,
From all that you've given me.
The night that I told you I was leaving you,
I felt like I cut my heart in two.
Life would be empty everyday, my love.
So heavy and sweet with you.
Moonlight shines
Upon our faces, milky stars,
In our eyes.
Our hearts beat together,
As we walk home tonight.
The night that I told you I was leaving you,
I felt like I cut my heart in two.
Life would be empty everyday, my love.
So heavy and sweet with you.
Moonlight shines
Upon our faces, milky stars,
In our eyes.
Our hearts beat together,
As we walk home tonight.
I Stayed too Long
Music & lyrics by Darla Murphy
I stayed too long
I fought too hard
That's why I'm comin' back here with broken fingers
My tail's between my legs
And you know
But you'd never tell me "I told you so"
Sometimes it's hard
To be calm
When you know the saddest song to sing is yet to come
So for today
I won't try to be sane
I'll just try to love you the way I know you wanna be praised
When I'm lyin' alone
I have no fear in my heart
Stronger words have been sung
But that don't mean that I'm wrong
I'll sow my seeds
I'll prune the trees
I'll get my hands so dirty you'd think they could never ever be clean
And you come to reap
My abundancy
But I don't mind cause everything that is mine and good and kind in this world I will share with you.
I got this feeling
That I wanna tell you 'bout
But this language is failin' me I feel it can't be put into speech
I don't know how to say it
I wish I had a cable
I'd connect our hearts, direct feed this feeling to you from me.
Stronger words have been sung
But that don't mean that I'm wrong
Search the sky for a sign
Warmest love in her eyes
I know it seems difficult
You must remember
That you are everything that this world has ever seen
You just forgot what it means
To see the stars spread out on sheets
To look them in the eye and see your self break down and cry
And I share my love with you
And you give your life to me
And we won't lay our heads down
to die, Tonight. Tonight.
I stayed too long
I went too far
Got lost in the dark dark dark cool of your eyes.
Bei Mir Bist du Schoen (Means That You're Grand)

Of all the boys I've known and I've known some
Until I first met you I was lonesome
And when you came in sight, dear, my heart grew light
And this whole world seemed new to me.
You're really swell, I have to admit you
These are the expressions that really fit you
And so I've racked my brain, hoping to explain
All the things that you do to me.
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, please let me explain
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, means you're grand
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, again I'll explain
It means you're the fairest in the land.
I could say bella bella, even say wunderbar
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen
So kiss me and say you understand.
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen
You've heard it all before but let me try to explain
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen, means that you're grand
Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen
It's such an old refrain and yet I should explain
It means I am begging for your hand.
I could say bella bella, even say wunderbar
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are.
Re-dee, re-dee, re-dee, re-dee, re-dee
I could say bella bella, even say wunderbar
Each language only helps me tell you how grand you are
I've tried to explain, Bei Mir Bist Du Schon
So kiss me and say that you will understand.
Catch My Breath
Music & lyrics by Darla Murphy
Catch my breath
I’m running from an icy death
The snow, the frost, the fingers on my neck
I come to you
To you I bring my humblest fears
Despite the warm words you whispered in my ear
The wolves, the bears, the trees, my friends all die
My mother would have told me it will be alright
But just like them
I’ll mistreat you.
Can I make it go?
Go from this place and leave you alone.
I’ll smash the walls I’ll break their jaws
‘Til you can find home
Never would I let you
Lose yourself like that
Your loneliness makes me cry
Your body, your temple, you’re God, my God, you’re beautiful
Simple, simple, simple is love
Only when I forget will I be lost
But my love, this amnesia has hit me today
Catch my breath
I’m running from your burning fist
This isn’t exactly what you or I had in mind
Cut me free now I need to go sharpen my teeth
For the battle I must kill my kin
My righteous love will kill you softly, my dear
And the sun will shine long after you and I
Simple, simple, simple is love
Only when I forget will I be lost
Nunca las he O(i)do
Music by Eric Hurlin and Gemma Cohen, lyrics by Miranda Mallard and Darla Murphy
Cuando nos encontramos en la lluvia, y susurras en mi oreja
Espero que me digas todo lo que tienes en tu corazon.
Quizas me diras como te sientes, ye que siempre estar(a)s aqui
(E)stas son las cosas puedes decir, pero nunca las he o(i)do.
I was walkin' down the street in the sun when the thought of you ran through my head
I have carried this so long that the glue in between us is all dried up, burnt and dead
But now as you whisper to me through the waters, sprouting leaves
I feel the need to gather up these feathers, shift into the wind and believe
That you'll hear me cry your name
That you'll hear me cry your name
That you'll hear me cry your name
That you'll hear me cry your name
Mr. Bear
Music by Eric Hurlin, lyrics by Darla Murphy
Sun shines, I'm feelin' fine
'Cause I got you by my side
Our life together--
Moon and stars, and chocolate bars, Oooh!
You're a fine one, Mr. Bear
Ain't nothin' we don't share
We've got our tap shoes!
Ra-pi-tee-tap! Ra-pi-te-tap! Oooh!
You, you're all I need
Little red hat, satin bow-tie
You plant a seed
Of happiness, of kindness in my heart
It grows like a weed!
Spreading to the tips of
My fingers and toes.
I would share all of my life
With you!
You, you soak up my tears
Sometimes, when I'm feelin' blue
You share all my fears--
Ghosts! and monsters in the dark
Let's take a ride
In my pedal car
Tonight
I will share all of my life
With you!
Wake Up
Music & lyrics by Gemma Cohen
There’s a rough crowd
‘Round the bend
They’re calling you calling you calling you…so loud
You can feel them
Breakin’ in
There is no escape, they say it’s your fate, it sinks right in
It’s a crime
You never saw comin’
They’re robbing you robbing you robbing you robbing you blind
It’s crime
They’re cleaning out your closet
They stealing your stealing your stealing your stealing your mind
You don’t need a reason
To take their lies
With a blind eye
You’ll let them take you away
Bridge (improv vocal)
Your innocence
Is buried deep
Is deep deep down, deep deep down in your soul
You don’t need a reason
To take their lies
With a blind eye
You’ll let them take you away
(May you wake up and see the light beyond the gold)
Je Parle Français
Music by Eric Hurlin, lyrics by Darla Murphy
Excerpt from the poem Apparition by Stephane Mallarmé
Mallarmé:
La lune s'attirstait. Des séraphins en pleurs
Rêvant, l'archet aux doigts, dans le calme des fleurs
Vaporeuses, tirait de mourantes violes
De blancs sanglots glissant sur l'azur des corolles.
--C'était le jour béni de ton premier baiser.
Ma songerie aimant à me martyriser
S'enivrait savamment du parfum de tristesse
Que même sans regret et sans déboire laisse
La cueillaison d'un Rêve au coeur qui l'a cueilli.
Je parle français.
Je suis la meilleure.
Je prononce les mots avec
plus de charme que les Français.
Je suis sure que j'ai fondé
la ville de Paris.
Et tous les grands bâtiments
c'étais moi qui les ai construit.
Tu penserais que je suis folle
sauf que tu connais
que je suis une ange
qui t'amène un beau sourire.
Quand je récite les poëmes
de Mallarmé je peux reprimer
les tempêtes des dieux
l'éclairage, le tonnerre.
Je parle français (elle parle français)
et je suis la meilleure (elle est la meilleure).
Mon accent peut fondre
peut fondre ton coeur.
Quand je fait l'amour
c'est toujours en français.
je crache des fleurs quand
je dit 'je t'aime.'
Si je fais une faut
on doit changer
la dictionaire
la langue française!
Si tous les oiseaux mouraient
aucune importance.
Car on entend ma voix
et on se croira au paradis!
Quand je récite les poëmes
de Mallarmé je peux reprimer
les tempêtes des dieux
l'éclairage, le tonnerre.
Orion's Waltz
Music & lyrics by Miranda Mallard
Out behind Orion,
I can see you smilin’ at me,
smilin’ down at me.
Oh so lovely.
Always and forever,
never can you ever stop
smilin’ down at me.
Oh my darlin'.
I’ll always find you.
Can’t you loosen up your belt now,
take a seat and listen
here, listen to this
one little song.
I’ll always find you.
And I’ll brush away the sharp rocks,
make myself a cradle and
bathe, bathe in all your
sweetness and beauty. dooodoo
No matter what,
no matter what,
no matter whatever you’re doin'.
No matter what,
no matter what,
no matter whatever you’re doin'. . .
Out behind Orion,
I can see you smilin’ at me,
smilin’ down at me.
Oh so lovely.
Always and forever,
never can you ever stop
smilin’ down at me.
Oh my darlin'.
I’ll always love you.

Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away, fly away.
To a home on God's celestial shore,
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away, fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I'll fly away, fly away;
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away, fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
Oh how glad and happy when we meet,
I'll fly away, fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet,
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away, fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
Just a few more weary days and then,
I'll fly away, fly away
To a land where joy shall never end,
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away, fly away (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away in the morning.
