Street Car 03:36
STREETCAR All music and lyrics by Miriam Donohue Roads go on forever into your back yard, hills turn into mountains people into cars and all is bright and blurry a streetcar named desire as signing posts ans homeless ghosts hang off the corner boulevard And yes i love the feeling of cruising round town I'm stuck in, I'm reeling in the gridlocked eiderdown, sometimes getting itchy feet means walking out for ten sometimes it means rolling out the bends Well we all go the same way like ants unto our Queen guided by the traffic lights our neon tails all weave the least detail the smallest scale is lost in time and speed and we're paying no attention to where this road might lead And yes i love the feeling of cruising round town I'm stuck in, I'm reeling in the gridlocked eiderdown, sometimes getting itchy feet means walking out for ten sometimes it means rolling out the bends We all live in boxes, afraid of what we see, we gave our boxes little wheels so that we felt free and all is bright and blurry a streetcar named desire as signing posts ans homeless ghosts hang off the corner boulevard And yes i love the feeling of cruising round town I'm stuck in, I'm reeling in the gridlocked eiderdown, sometimes getting itchy feet means walking out for ten sometimes it means rolling out the bends

BOOKMARKS All music and Lyrics written by Miriam Donohue I remember how the pages curled beneath my fingertips, and the first taste of a kiss, it seems so long ago, getting lost between the lines, folding corners to mark times to which we would return People wishing on a star, people making love People wishing on a star, people making love Overcast in overcoats on paper boats we sail, on a paper... trail Floating through these cardboard streets we wave to passers-by Searching for the perfect partner for our little boat, Carefully we fold away our sails into our coat People wishing on a star, people making love People wishing on a star, people making love Do you remember how the pages curled beneath your fingertips, and the first taste of a kiss, it seems so long ago, getting lost between the lines, folding corners to mark times to which you would return People wishing on a star, people making love People wishing on a star, people making love Overcast in overcoats on paper boats we sail, on a paper... trail Floating through these cardboard streets we wave to passers-by Searching for the perfect harbour for our little boat, Carefully we fold away our sails into our coat

Waiting 03:08
WAITING All music and lyrics by Miriam Donohue It's a wave that never crests, it's a song stuck in my breast, I'm always waiting, for circles in the sand, for you to hold my hand, I'm always waiting"
