Chorus:
Purple road in the mist, I'm leaving home for the abyss
Purple road in the mist, winding road, let me come home
Sunset gold and rivers cold,
in this dusky twilight memories grow old
As we leave today behind for tomorrow
time grows old, time grows old
*Chorus*
Silver stars and emerald pine trees
make up the stuff of my dreams
As they grow old, the fragments scatter
it's the imprint, not the fragments, that matter
*Chorus*
Home, what is home?
Winding road let me come home
Home, is this home?
Winding road let me come home
*Chorus*

Starlight

As day turns to night, I set my chattering mind aside
Walk to the window, stare at the sky
The moon is now rising and the starry spread converging
I decipher the pictures in the sky
And you're standing there, a silvery and glowing apparition
to tell me what I know is true: you always loved me and you always will
I see you on the other side
I cry because I know you're free
I cry because you're here with me,
nothing more to say
and we will be ok
I'll never forget you, as long as I am alive
you'll live on in my memory
Sands of time will take the rest from me
nothing more to say
and we will be ok
I see you on the other side
I cry because I know you're free
I cry because you're here with me,
nothing more to say
and we will be ok
Nothing more to say, and we will be ok

Island

Words, out of place, out of time
I feel like I'm a hundred miles away
Some strike on fears deep inside that never seem to die
No matter how close I am,
I feel like I'm a hundred miles away
I'll be my own island
I swear I can if I just try hard enough
I'll be my own island
I'll never have to lean on someone else
Have you ever looked up to realize
that no one else was really there?
Have you ever sorted through all of the lies
and found they're all in you somewhere
Have you ever started a song just to throw it away
for the sadness that it sings
I'll be my own island
I swear I can if I just try hard enough
I'll be my own island
I'll never have to listen to someone else
Words, out of place, out of time,
I feel like I'm a hundred miles away
Some strike on fears deep inside that never seem to die

Periwinkle Summertime

Periwinkle summertime,
you know the surf is so sublime
in the land where water is time
and time is everything you ever wished for
Lead yourself to water now
and let you drink from sweetened springs
Feel the joy that summer brings,
time is everything I ever wished for
Come with me, you will see that
the sun is shining and the sea is so inviting
Come with me, you will see that
the seagulls fly on golden wings
Fragrant is the forest floor,
just beyond the rocky shore,
food of long-forgotten lore
Peace is everything I ever wished for
Wintergreen's not new to me,
but verdant growth's a sight to see
the sunlight dances happily
Peace is everything I ever wished for
Come with me, you will see that
the sturdy stones beneath my feet will last forevermore
Come with me, you will see that
forever only lasts until the waves crash on the shore
