Lyrics
September 1st
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
The North Wind wakes and sends a chill;
The willow turns and bends away,
Betrayed by dimming light, she pales
Green to gray.
What then can be done?
Unwind the moon and sun?
Oh no, you cannot stop September 1st.
A crackling tide beneath my step,
From glowing canopies above
In shades of red and gold aloft,
Falling down.

Please No More Blues
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
You’re the fork in my toaster,
You’re the pebbles in my shoes,
You got a knack for fading to black,
Baby, please no more blues!
Round and round, I play the clown,
I hound this town to find your fancy,
On and on, I’m conned and pawned,
The song is gone before we danced it.
I hate to have to be the one to tell myself I told you so,
I hate to have to be the one to tell myself I told you so.
It’s about time you found your footing,
In a pair of big boy shoes.
It’s closing time in the sugar mine,
Baby, please no more blues!

Beyond the Door
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
Did I spy your shadow in flight,
From dark streets, dark nights?
Dazed and woken by an angel’s cry,
Hold on, hold on!
Beyond the door, beyond the door,
Is hope and peace you’ve never known before.
Beyond the door, beyond the door,
Light on Light forever more!
Mired in the moment of a mood,
Outcast – Seeker.
All you ever needed was within you ,
The key is there.

Night Flight
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
Another hour,
I’m sitting here at your bedside awaiting your night flight.
Another prayer,
For choirs of angels to guide you to new light,
Now boarding, your night flight.
How did it come to this, I wonder,
How much had I missed?
You lived a life too full to have last wishes.
So very near,
Your breath is dressed for a new life,
Oh, Godspeed, your night flight.
So very dear,
This loving memory as your human birthright
Soars through your night flight.
How does it come to this?
No wonder,
Life’s not to be missed.
Cherish every dream that you dare to wish.

Back Roads - Reach for Heaven
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
Train station – not vacation,
Way station for wayward souls,
Souls on the back roads.
Street walkers, off-ramp stalkers,
Bartering flesh for gold,
Tolls on the back roads.
Hot water, warrants in Dakota,
Calamity drives the wind that blows,
Blows down the back roads.
Church shelters, blue-haired helpers,
Gray soup and a warm bedroll,
Salvation on the back roads.
*************************************
It takes both hands to reach for heaven,
Let go, let go of yourself,
And give your hands to reach for heaven!
Your heart will light the path to heaven,
Let go of all that defiles.
Absolve your heart and reach for heaven.
Ascending souls in sight of heaven,
Hold on, hold on to the Light,
And shine on us who reach for heaven.

Breach of Genius
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
Seductive guile
Fiction flies from hi-def smiles.
We're cleansed of trust,
Swimming in this Breach of Genius.
Open your ears, open your eyes, it's all been lies!
Open your ears, open your eyes,
It's time to rise!
Open your ears, open your eyes,
Live in the Light!
Spread Your Wings
(Kliebhan/VanDeKerchove)
Sometimes gotta rock - Sometimes gotta roll
Sometimes gotta dance - Sometimes gotta sing
Sometimes gotta feel free
Sometimes gotta feel free
Spread your wings
Enjoy the days
See the smiles
Enjoy the rays
Gotta feel free
Don't fall off the track - Stay on the road
Gotta let it ride - It's gonna be alright
Man free your soul - Man free your soul
Spread your wings - feel free
Spread your wings - feel free
Spread your wings - feel free
Yeah yeah yeah
Get on your feet - its time to go
Hit the gas - eyes on the road
Let your spirit ride - let your spirit ride
Spread your wings - feel free
