Down, Down, Down

There was wind against the window pane
And a sky of clouds before it came
It rolled in like a velvet train - Hello
The browning field and highway wide
The tractor wheel and riverside
they're all dressed up the same tonight - aglow
CHORUS:
Warm by the fireside
Everyone fast asleep now
Under the streetlights
Snow falling fast and deep now:
Down down down down down
Well it comes on light, a southern drawl
Then it storms in like a barroom brawl
It makes a beauty of us all; I've seen it
How it sings us all to sleep at night
Then greets us with the morning light
and we see the world like candlelight; I've dreamed it
CHORUS
It's a wild world; in technicolor
As long as we have one another
Muffle sound, and lend us cover
Close the roads and snow us under
CHORUS

Going Gone

The farm, the cloud, the field and the plow
hear them softly sing
The snow falls deep and wide; see how it climbs up
by the old porch swing
Chimney smoke, over the oak tree
it was whispering-
It said, "Go, go go," we said, "Oh, oh oh -
the world is listening"
CHORUS:
Ah ah, we found our warmest coats
Oh oh, you pulled your tall boots on
Ah ah, out in the winter snow
Oh oh, we're going, going gone
In the great gray clouds, rushing in and out
the sky is breathing deep
And all the trees far below with every breeze shake the snow
down to their frozen feet
Silver flakes halo our faces
we're all rose and shine
Two tracks wandering home, in a thundering snow
back to the fire and wine
CHORUS
Everything is singing in a great white dark and
Everything is shining like a thousand stars
CHORUS

December Days
04:38
|
|||
|
I was afraid
You always came in like a ghost
Snow falling soft from your coat
Lighting our lanterns with whispers and prayers
I stayed up late
You always sang me right to sleep
Glittering lights in the trees
You held our dreams out like stars everywhere
CHORUS:
I wish you could come
now like you used to
I wish you could come
now like you used to
I’d love to bring you back
When I was alone
You always spoke like something old
Magic and lights in the cold
I’d breathe you in like a wind on my soul
I’d close my eyes
You always came in like a breath
Quiet and still while we slept
December days falling graceful and gold
CHORUS
I’ve held them close
Winters I so wish I could find
Angels and wonders and signs
Joseph and Mary, a stable, a star
CHORUS

O Come Emmanuel

O Come, O come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice
O Come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadows put to flight
Rejoice, rejoice
O come Desire of Nations, bind
Our spirits in one heart and mind
Bid envy, strife, and quarrels cease
Fill all the world with Heaven’s peace
Rejoice, rejoice
Emmanuel Emmanuel
Shall come to Thee, O Israel

This album has many of my favorite tracks of Glen’s: Shorn (probably my favorite song, period), solo version of Enough, No Blue Sky (I LOVE Shawn Mullins’ version, but this is exquisite) and his version of American Tune is delightful.
