  1. [Lyric] Mr. Updike (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] Mr. Updike, John Does your rabbit run? With your brushed-back hair So cool and so debonair Finish what you started, and it makes me sad To think of how few friends you had Were you broken-hearted? [Verse 2] You were at your best Sitting at your desk New sentence in your head, yeah The everyday world was dead How could it compare? I look...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] Living In Between (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] You’d think by now that I would know What I believe and what I don’t But it’s all still a mystery And only doubt remains Trying to connect the dots Rearrange my scattered thoughts Meditate on what is not While I navigate the maze [Chorus 1] And I don’t know what’s going on My feet are on the ground I’m feeling upside-down [Verse 2] I’ve...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] Too Late The Key (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] I can hear echoes, though invisible Across great spaces traveling far My mind's eye sees the very first taste My mind's ears hear a song sung in haste [Verse 2] Is it too soon, or better yet? May you know no regret Too confused and chaotic, it seems Too far off, this elusive melody [Chorus] The gate left open Is there still hope inside...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] New Normal (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] Inside I can hear the bells chime Marking hours that slip by Never to return Tick tock If I could build a roadblock Halt the march of life's clock Let a moment be its own [Chorus 1] Ah, I can feel the wind flow I can feel the grass grow Right beneath my feet [Verse 2] Stand still Feel time passing around you Going along without you Like...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] One Way Conversation (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] As I sit in silence, listening to the space The space that has no edges Not a trace Give me a sign Give me a sign Just one single conversation face to face [Chorus 1] In that one defining moment Will I stand or will I fall? I'd like to think that we would Would have made it after all [Verse 2] Once again I substitute you for the...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] Almost Home (Gary Louris)

    [Chorus] Miles of empty skies and ever-winding streets So incomplete and all alone When I close my eyes, I always see your face I hear your voice, I'm almost home [Verse 1] Well, I've always been an in-and-out sorta fella And my mind gets to roamin', I guess But when I'm far away, I can still see that day And you in that little white dress [Verse...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] Jump For Joy (Gary Louris)

    [Intro] Ooh Ooh [Chorus] Are you gonna jump for joy? You make me wanna jump for joy You make me wanna jump for joy You make me wanna jump for joy [Verse 1] Chasing up ladders Nothing else matters Casting a tired eye Collecting old riddles Learning so little Hit it every once in a while My little troubles Are merely bubbles Floating on the surface...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] White Squirrel (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] Ever feel like a white squirrel In the daylight 'Gainst the dark green grass Sticking out like a sore thumb In the noonday sun While the brown ones run? Like the world that you're living in Has left you all alone Ever feel like an orphan And you got no place to go? [Verse 2] Ever feel like a square peg In a round hole Like a broken...Learn More

  9. [Lyric] Dead Mans Burden (Gary Louris)

    [Section 1] All the ladies and the gentlemen The life force Who line up nose to nose just like The hungry rows of eskimoes And those of us with ravaged faces Rarely laughed and took our places Looked ourselves square in the mirror Cowards caught in frozen fear Of delicate and difficult The sugar mixing with the salt We know it’s neither truth or...Learn More

  10. [Lyric] Follow (Gary Louris)

    [Verse 1] Picture me By your side, that's where I long to stay As the chestnut turns to gray If you will follow me, mm Ripples made Skipping stones across a quiet lake Like a dream from which we'll never wake If you will follow me [Chorus] We'll never lose our way If we count each day like the others Home's only where you are Won't you take my arm...Learn More
