Louise 02:21
Louise, she's a girl I know Louise, she's a girl I know She goes with me when I want to go My Louise Louise, she lives on my block Louise, she lives on my block She walks with me when I want to walk My Louise Wears a sweater on the good days Wears a raincoat when it rains Wears her hair all down in pig-tails She's my friend, she's My Louise Louise meets me half way Louise meets me half way there When the sun goes down I walk here home My Louise Louise, Louise turns her light on Louise, Louise turns her light on for me And when I leave I look up to see My Louise

The Shimmering Plane by Patrick Dunfey Whenever fortune fails me like a lazy friend and all that crying forms a lake I get myself to the Shimmering Plane I help myself to the Shimmering Plane The cry at midnight brings the farmer to the field A distance spannable by cable, sand, and steel The lights shine brightly, the Shimmering Plane No lights go dark on the Shimmering Plane I get myself to the Shimmering Plane I help myself to the Shimmering Plane The distance marker marks an item on the list The road less traveled has been graveled, tires hiss Hissing, and burned, and spoiled, and dead, and far away Excuses pile up, they pile up So we step lightly to gain the Shimmering Plane Yes, I own land on the Shimmering Plane I get myself to the Shimmering Plane I help myself to the Shimmering Plane I get myself to the Shimmering Plane I help myself to the Shimmering Plane Dreams Come True by Christopher Andrews All my dreams are coming true these days There's no difference between night and day Little coincidences don't seem strange I'm under the circumstances It all started when I walk up last night Running from the Sea Like a baby, I feel alright Anything wrong, that's history Out of the cold and into the blue My dreams have come true My dreams have come true Sometimes I don't like what I see But my eyes are dry, closed to mystery Let these things pass, they can't touch me I know the steps to a secret dance One-two-three, one-two-three One-two-three, one-two-three And it all started when I walk up last night Running from the Sea Like a baby, I feel alright Anything wrong, that's history Out of the cold and into the blue My dreams have come true My dreams have come true
