You were waiting tables
In Santa Cruz
With your dusty notebooks
And your busted muse

I walked in one evening
Guitar in hand
Just a another dreamer
Playing in the band


I got through with soundcheck
Half an hour to doors
I got swept up in that
Lazy smile of yours

Changing my guitar string
When I heard you say
"Can I get you something?"
I just want to ride the...

Waves of green and swirls of blue
You're circling me I'm circling you
Waves of blue and swirls of green
As long this is not a dream
I wonder if you’d spend some time with me?

So we found each other
Every night
Made love and laughter
'Til morning light

And it feels like magic
When I look in your eyes
Can it be so tragic
If differences arise?

You like New York City
New York City’s home
I’m a happy rambler
I just like to roam

I’m a people person
Every party’s fun
You’re the quiet type you’re
Better one on one


You think you want children
Maybe two or three
That’s sure sounds like a
Lotta work to me

You like Chance the Rapper
I like Chrissie Hynde
But it doesn’t matter
We still want to ride the…

Waves of green and swirls of blue
You’re changing me I’m changing you
Waves of blue and swirls of green
As long this is not a dream
I wonder if you’d spend your life with me?

All those little problems
Those seeds of doubt
When you love somebody
You work them out

When two good people
Share a life
The blessings and the burdens
Seem to multiply

Now we have kiddos
Our folks are slowing down
I still play my music
When the time allows

Some nights it’s macaroni
Or lentil soup
Life would feel demanding
Were it not for you

There are those who like us
There are those who don’t
There are those who like us
At each other’s throats

We still love each other
Like water loves the sea
But let me tell you, brother
We no longer need the…

Waves of blue and swirls of green
We long for something more serene
A gentle turquoise mountain stream
As long as this is not dream
I wonder if you’d sit right here with me
