Lady Sunshine makes us grow during the daytime She makes us live

Dark Peace 03:19
Bleak world forming now, for inside it grows Live it down, live it down Crystal clear on my mind Sharing smiles with the tide Weighed down by nature's road The ticking clock, backwards time Dark peace floating on for inside it grows Hold it up, Hold it up Crystal clear on my mind Sharing smiles with the tide

Lady Sunshine shine so bright fills the flowers with delight Lady Sunshine shine so bright fills the children with delight Please shine on us all Please shine on us all Let your light out Let your love shine Let your light out Lady Moonshine shine so high fills the people with delight Lady Moonshine shine so high fills the people up so bright Please shine on us all Please shine on us all Let your light out Let your love shine Let your light out

Saint Senara 02:09
Saint Senara loved a man, though she a woman of the sea Could not stay for long on land to be with someone such as he Will you drown for my love See the stars up above the water Will you drown for my love See the stars up above the water Went to church to hear him sing hiding in the furthest pew Waiting for that faithful day when he would say to her I do Will you drown for my love See the stars up above the water Will you drown for my love See the stars up above the water Finally he noticed her and he said his feelings were the same He went to the sea and the blue ocean claimed his soul

Hello Hello Where do we go? We're on a road to nowhere but we're still together. We hold each other so tightly look up at the blue night We're not going, going anywhere at all Hello Hello Where do we go? When the night is cold and we're all alone? We hold each other so tightly look up at the blue night We're not going, going anywhere at all Hello Hello A taste of love Hello Hello A taste of love

Black Velvet 02:51
Dark Stars of unknowing draw me into the night Velvet swirls of crippled stars emit into the void Take me to a new high I want to lose my mind Black Velvet Black Velvet Fake stars who know it all Lie to us Broken faces who've seen it all Cry to us Take me from this low point I wanna gain my mind Black Velvet Black Velvet

Traveling over the water Filling the sand of life Streams of light form Fields of time gone Feeling the pull of love Eating the fruit of death Streams of light form Fields of time gone Streams of light form Fields of time gone Smile unto your cliff Oasis of time awaits you Oasis of time awaits you Oasis of time
8.
Us two make a pair seeking the world inside out holding hands and sharing minds seeking the world inside out We go down to the garden We go down to the flowers And see the love and smell the colors In the garden Us two make the time seeking the truth inside out Smokey woods and dying lanterns the source of life is dying It's time to stop It's time to Smile It's to live We never realize We go down to the garden We go down to the flowers And see the love and smell the colors In the garden
9.
Yesterday crawled up on my doorstep crying in shame His bruises that his mother gave him she needed someone to blame The World Can't Be Won The World Can't Be Won Come together now Love together now The world can't be won with any amount of guns sing to death and dream false idols claim to be king The World Can't Be Won The World Can't Be Won Come together now Love together now
10.
Take this love of mine keep it for yourself Where does this heart of mine go every night? Deep down in the dark we fall Take this light of mine lock it deep inside Where does this heart of mine go every night? Deep down in the dark we fall I'll take this smile of yours and have it for myself Where does this heart of mine go every night? Deep down in the dark we fall

Sunshine You're my lady sunshine and we're going out today A bottle of wine and we're feeling fine in the shade Sunshine You're my lady sunshine and we're going out today A kiss or two and we might make it through the day O Sunshine You're my lady sunshine and we're out today A bottle of wine and we're feeling fine in the shade

about

"Worshipping at the altar of Their Satanic Majesties-era Stones and Smile-time Beach Boys, the band's sound charts an oddly-engaging brand of melancholy baroque-psych ballad which sees sitar swooping across "Dark Peace" and mysterioso organ lacing "Lady Sunshine" as Byrdsian harmonies sporadically take flight under Duncan Shepard's doleful vocals."
