1 The Horizontal Moon
They say the mountain is higher than I see
They say we never turn back to the past
Another world reflects on the water waving like a heat haze
Then I see the sky broken down the middle in the breeze
So tell me now
What you have ever seen ?
Tell me now
What you have ever heard ?
Tell me now
Let me hear your story, baby
They say we face many turns in a way
They say everybody is afraid of the darkness
Like the moon in the middle of night
She always comes in my mind
But I can see only part of her
that shines on a light
So tell me now
What you have ever seen ?
Tell me now
What you have ever heard ?
Tell me now
How does it feel ?
Nothing is over your head
Everything is going to the west
and sinking down on the horizon
Unformed clouds, drifting in the air
It will soon melt into the moon light, too
Time leaves me behind
Oh, Space makes me alone
Still we've lost ourselves in following a day
then a waxing moon would be on our eyes
So tell me now
What you have ever seen ?
Tell me now
What you have ever heard ?
Tell me now
How does it feel ?
Nothing is over your head
So tell me now, oh, take me now
that's where I belong
2 One Way Street
Her yellow signal gives you sing to come
Go straight before she changes her mind
It's time to drive yourself to the cliff
Do your best once you taste hell
Half baked words never burn her ears
Only your hot tongue can bring your heart
Her shot of eyes gives you a deadly wound
You've still aching from the first knock aren't you ?
Nobody can solve an equation of love
Nobody knows where the true love is
Falling in love means just "Falling"
It's too late after that
You've been already a prisoner
Stand up man at one way street
Throw a poor pride into a coffin
Nothing can keep you from going straight
Don't put on the brakes halfway to your goal
If you lose betting one ( Next bet two )
If you lose betting two ( Next bet four )
If you lose betting four
Play another hand betting all
A fat gambler said ( what did he say )
Son just try again and again ( again and again )
And a chance must come to you
A man would never miss it
Don't make some tricks
Nobody can solve an equation of love
Nobody knows where the true love is
Falling in love means just "Falling"
It's too late after that
You've been already a prisoner
Standup man at one way street
Throw a poor pride into a coffin
Nothing can keep you from going straight
Don't put on the brakes halfway to your goal
Standup man at one way street
Throw a poor pride into a coffin
Run through fears just like a cannon ball
Put your blood into loving her
3 I'm In Trouble
I'm in trouble
I must be large snail
Defend my self
with shell of pride
From your garden
to San Quentin
I still have cards
Yes, I can knock on any doors
She told me
Son, you'll be fine
I pray for you every night and day
You got it son?
You'll be alright
You'll be fine
A valley echoes over the line
and beyond oblivion
and late night cries tonight
I'm trying to find the dim light behind the dark
Gloom on table
Dry stuffy room
A rays of the sun
The songs wait for a word
I've been trying
to do what I can
Just 9 hours
Let me stay please don't go away
She told me
Hey you'll be fine
You wrote me great song in just one day
She told me
Hey you'll be alright
You'll be fine
She told me
Son you'll be fine
I pray for you every night and day
You got it son ?
You'll be alright
You'll be fine
A valley echoes over the line
and beyond oblivion
and late night cries tonight
I'm trying to find the dim light behind the dark
5 Dallas Road
I was dying in the heart of wild
I'd been searching a drop of water for miles and miles
My pistol had got no powder in Reno any more
Where is the woman who dropped out me from the time
I say oh, sandstorm
So don't you blow away the smoke behind me
Tell me oh, heavy sunlight
You're gonna burn out all my hope
The earth rolled away
The sky fell down
At last I saw the sun burn black in haze
Drag my rusty body
Now, go back to Dallas again
Ain't got no cars around here
Gonna catch a wild horse right away
I say oh, sandstorm
So don't you blow away the smoke behind me
Tell me oh, heavy sunlight
You're gonna burn out all my hope
6 Grandpa Grandma
When I talk with sister on the telephone
She tells me to eat more vegetable
Oh I love you sister, love you brother,
love you mother, grandpa grandma
There was daddy by 2003
He was really daddy
I hope he's doing well
I know almost everything
I don't mind now
My life is strange like mystery train
Listen to the wheels going round and round
I wont you to be more careful grandpa, grandma
In my child hood
I used to go back home with grandma
We walk along a river
I was crazy about ABARENBO SHOUGUN
brandished a bamboo ruler and cut weeds
And I saw leaves fall down
down on long haul track
Then I wrote a song first time
the first one who praised my song is grandma
Don't you remember my song grandma?
Can you still sing my song for me? oh, grandma
I've tasted, not wasted
I want you to know that
four years have passed since I left my home
I've tasted, not wasted
I want you to know that
so many leaves have fallen after that
Indian summer
Nothing in my favor
There’s no clouds above me
I got my stubborn from my grandpa
He is a man from south west Islands
Hey grandpa why don't you tell me your story like you used to
I'm so proud of your way
I'll keep your lesson in my mind
Never a day passed
that I didn't feel your love grandpa grandma
Hey grandpa, grandma
You're ground son sings for you
7 After The Rain
A shaft of light came out from the sky
and grains of hope were scattered on the ground
We began to walk again as the sun was eating clouds
You got go now
I can't stay anymore
Have you ever seen birds playing on the evening calm ?
Oh we all live in a changing time
So, your bad times don't last so long
like birds fly away sooner or later
After the rain,
After the rain
After the rain the sun is shining now
Sometime I fall into evil ways
It got me down and might never end
I should know that who I am
You should know who you are too
Got no money ?
It's gonna be all right
Got no love ?
You just don't know someone waiting
So, your bad times don't last so long
like a birds fly away sooner or later
After the rain
After the rain
After the rain the sun is rising now
After the rain
After the rain
After the rain the sun is shining now
8 Down To The Country
The day before we got on the boat was heavy rain and cold
A parting cup tasted bitter sweet
and thousand felling filled up the glass
The morning came silently
Farewell to our land
We raised the full sails
Tangled with love for the good old days
I remember tears dropped on the deck
Wiped with the smoke of the waves
and flowed to the shore
All the crazy things we had to try
We nearly dropped dead
They don't like to swim against the tide
They never know the tide turned
A trace is getting deeper and clearer as we go further
Now will it lead to the place ?
Well that sticks in my heart at any time
I remember you were standing with a smile
until we faded away in to the fog
And I believe the candles are still lighting for us
that's not lose the way even in the darkness
I hear the sound
I wonder you would call me
How fast days pass away
The afterimages of time live as memory even if a scene changed
I never forget the days passed with you
I hear the sound
I wonder you would call me
I've been waiting day and night
Oh, but I still live on the road
Someday I could go back to this town
I'm on the road again
until that day comes
until that day comes
9 Forgiven Song
There is something deep in my heart
Something like a flower seeds
even I don’t know now
even I don’t know now
There is something deep in your heart
Something like a flower seeds
even you don’t know now
But someday you’ll know it
The day is coming
At least 18 years ago
while I was playing with friends in elementary school
Some people still judged by their collar of skin under the law
It’s no surprise
whatever happen in our future
We can’t runaway from the past
I’m not telling about one hundred years ago
I’m not telling about kind of “once upon a time story “
I don’t pretend to be blind
There’ve been fights I never know
There’ve been truth I never know
I’ve been living in this world with no doubt
Some were buried under the freedom
Some flew the winning flag painted bloody
Some stood looking at scars for a while
and thought about what someone had said
“All men are created equal ”
What should I sing for restless soul
Some said we gotta sins in a former life
If it is so,
If it is so
I can’t resign myself to my fate
10 The First Waltz
If you really looking for the love
I can really love you
If you really want some love
Don't you wait too long ?
Nothing can replaces your love
I never tell a lie
Everything about you I love
Every little thing you do
Nothing in the world
if you don't love me
You are the one to live with my life
I've been looking for a girl just like you
You are the one to makes me smile
Nothing can replace your love
I never tell a lie
Let me walk with you tonight
Let me stay all night
Oh, love me,
Kiss me
Hold me tight
Oh, yes I know you love me before to long
Under the moon
Under the stars
Under the sun
Under the clouds
We can love, live, and share
We can love, live, and share
