OF JUNE (EP 2007)

1. Swimming In Miami

I'm alone above the atmosphere

And no one looking up can find me here

Cause I can close my eyes, and disappear

When I climb the stairs to watch the sun

Above station walls, the colors run

To fill the swimming pool when I am done

I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels through your veins

When the satellites hang all around

And I can finally hear the lovely sound

When all the engines in the backroom die down

All the airships move across the sky

And my equipment just keeps standing by

The planets glow and intensify

I am the pilot of a cargo airplane that travels through your veins

When you are lying half asleep in your room

Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon

Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell

It could be raining but then you can never tell.

If you're alone in this awful downpour

Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door

In the evening light the boulevard

Conceals the night with disregard

For all the workers in a west coast ship yard

When I rearrange the silverware

And re-install the lights and captian's chair

I'll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air

I am the engineer of forty freight trains that travels through your veins

When you are lying half asleep in your room

Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon

Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell

It could be raining but then you can never tell.

If you're awake in this awful downpour

Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door

When you are swimming in Miami at night

And all around you are the traffic and city lights

2. Captains And Cruise Ships

I am stuck in L.A.

Through the week and cant get away

And you're alone on the pier

In West Palm Beach on your holiday

Stormy night, reawake the stomach ache

that i've acquired

From feeling down, things look grim

And i'm so sick of being tired

Apartment lights go dark

And its depressing but what can i do?

The midnight streets feel dead

When i am so used to driving with you

Brighter lights fill the night and

Bluer sky's reflect in your eyes

As I inspect and analyze

All of these dreams I don't recognize

If you're still up when the ships

In the port prepare to set sail

Comb the beach and put those blue flowers up in your ponytail

Inside my head you're voice is still resounding but what can i do?

Empty rooms feel cold when I am so used to being with you

Count the stars, watch the waves absorb the summer sun

And think of me when you explore hidden coves and tiny island chains

Throughout the sea can you still, hear my voice,

when I'm outside from over the phone for what its worth,

darling dear, I wish you were here cause I feel alone

When you were home we'd sing but since you've left I don't hear anything

Though I feel so sad, I cant believe things are really that bad

Old captains and brand new cruise ships

Sailing over the Briney sea

When I crashed my beloved desk job

And swim through the debris

Ill cut loose leave this mad house all for the Atlantic blue

Ill stroll down your treelined driveway, and sail the ocean with you

3. Designer Skyline

Affection, the gifted architect

Is making a draft and beautiful design

The options and possibilities

Are endless when we connect and re-align

Collections of books and documents

Arise and parade around my cluttered desk

Reworking the math and measurements

Until I'm convinced these plans are picturesque

Like mountains in the Midwest

Reaction creates the columns dark

And wide like the roads around Fort Lauderdale

The structures begin to take their shape

Before I've designed the public monorail

The turnpike and high-speed motorway

Connect and enclose the quaint suburban streets

The airport, the broad suspension bridge

The lake and the beach where several rivers meet

Compounded from the spreadsheet

A city sparkles in the night

How can it glow so bright?

The neighborhoods surround the soft florescent light

Designer skyline in my head

Abstract and still well-read

You went from numbered lines to buildings overhead

4. Panda Bear

I'm moving to Tokyo

Cuz I'm tired of San Francisco

My contracts are finally void

And I am getting out

On houses and building tops

I swallow the beams and sundrops

If my echos could reach your ears

Then I could save my calls

What happens when I'm above

The east river when you are in love

We're staring at all these lights

And I am going blind

Fill all of the navy yards

With hard working security guards

Cuz the numbers are wearing off

My plastic access cards

How can I begin to say

I feel better off when we stay

In Paris on winter nights

Beneath the snowy veil

Content like a panda bear

Still breathing the fresh mountain air

I'll put on a diving tank

And sing when I inhale

5. The Airway

When I am fast asleep

I dream and see you floating high above me

And I awake at dawn

Before the rays of morning paint the front lawn

From on the bedroom floor

I watch you sailing far above the seashore

In deep Atlantic skies

You float as I look aft to watch the moon rise

Above the avenue

I search among the clouds, trying to see you

But you are just a blur

In the sky when you parachute over the harbor

I can see

You above with the ocean around me

If I could only stay

Overhead in the airway

You sail through

Endless sky with the evening around you

When I'm out on the bay

You're aloft in the airway

When I'm alone at night

I dream you paint the stars against the twilight

Suspended in the air

I wish your silhouette would always stay there

When I am on the beach

I watch you held aloft way out of my reach

But I cannot take flight

Or float upon the air the way that you might

When I am in the sea

You gaze down from the sky, trying to see me

But I am just a blur

Through the waves as I scuba dive below the harbor

The airway

You and I in the airway

Aloft in the airway

In love on the airway

6. Fuzzy Blue Lights

If I could look across the country

From California to New Jersey

Then I would count the parks and lake resorts

And number all the jets and airports

All those rather dreary rain clouds still bother me

Cuz I look through the camera eyepiece and cannot see

If I could open up my window

And see from Tampa Bay to Juneau

Then I would survey all those open miles

And line them up in single file

Everywhere I look I see green scenic sublime

And all those oceanic vistas are so divine

If I was standing on the balcony

And you were walking down below

I'd feel rather depressed and out of place

And lonely just to watch you go

If you were swinging from the highway overpass

Within the western hemisphere

I'd feel rather afraid and insincere

If you began to disappear

If I was walking through a sad art gallery

And you were driving through the night

I'd feel rather alone and I'll at ease

Beneath the brilliant showroom light

If I was flying on a plane above your town

And you were gazing at the sky

Somehow I'd feel intact and reassured

If you began to wave goodbye

7. Hello Seattle

Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer

In the hills and highlands

I fall asleep in hospital parking lots

And awake in your house

Hello Seattle, I am a Manta Ray

Deep beneath the blue waves

Ill crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound

And construct a summer home

Hello Seattle, I am the crescent moon

Shining down on your face

I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill

And descend inside of you

Hello Seattle, I am a cold seahorse

Feeling warm in your sand

I sing about the tide and the ocean surf

Rolling in the evening breeze

Hello Seattle, I am an albatross

on the docks and your boats

I sail above your inlets and interstates

Through the rain and open wind

Hello Seattle, I am an old lighthouse

Throwing beams of bright lights

Red in the morning, blue in the evening sun

Taken heed from everyone

Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer

In the hills and highlands

I fall asleep in hospital parking lots

Take me above your light

Carry me through the night

Hold me secure in flight

Sing me to sleep tonight

Take me above your light (Hello Seattle I am)

Carry me through the night (a mountaineer, In the hills)

Hold me secure in flight (and highlands I fall asleep in hospital)

Sing me to sleep tonight (parking lots and awake)
