"Where I Like To Stand" lyrics
"Where I Like To Stand"
The hound bays, the sheep graze
I'm counting the boats in the bay
As they float they seem to say:
"I'm counting the waves, I'm counting the waves"
The men in the boats, they wave to their wives and say:
"I'm counting the hours, counting the hours
Counting the hours in the day"
I'm counting the gulls that sit on the waves
Surrounding the boats in the bay
I'm counting the miles till we're there
Where the sun and the rain and the snow
Fall on the seeds and make them grow
Fall on the rocks and make them crack
Into pebbles and into sand
Which is where I like to stand
The hound bays, the sheep graze
I'm counting the boats in the bay
As they float they seem to say:
"I'm counting the waves, I'm counting the waves"
The men in the boats, they wave to their wives and say:
"I'm counting the hours, counting the hours
Counting the hours in the day"
I'm counting the gulls that sit on the waves
Surrounding the boats in the bay
I'm counting the miles till we're there
Where the sun and the rain and the snow
Fall on the seeds and make them grow
Fall on the rocks and make them crack
Into pebbles and into sand
Which is where I like to stand

You spend all your time crying
Crying the hours in tears
Crying the hours in...
Karen Dalton - "Are You Leaving For The Country" Are you leaving for the country?
You say the city brings you down
Leave the iron cloud behind
And feel the circus moving on
Are you leaving for the country?
I know a little country town
Where dogs...
Sibylle Baier - "Softly" Softly, in the wintertime
Softly, when we're about to dine
Softly, in my heart of mine, I talk to you
Has anybody of you two
Got half a mind to go to the zoo?
Tonight, won't you think we had fun?...
Jessica Pratt - "Moon Dude" Moon dude, you can try the weight
Of your body now in outer space
In time, you can cast a gaze on our planet lines, ta-da
You're on the outside, you're looking in
To the escalators humming
They are...
