John Woodward This is a hidden gem from the past. I did have this album but decided to buy it once again here at Bandcamp to get better audio quality. Many great songs like Every Time You Smile, which is one of the all-time best heavy-prog love songs there is. Foster's voice is brilliant as is the production of the late Trent Gardner.

There was something in the snake oil and the jaded eyes they sold you, 'cause you feel a lot like tin foil; you bend anyway they fold you. And most of the time you're colored green, Trapped inside their T.V. screen, Going with the flow, until your lover doesn't know you. You believe you're locked up airtight But, your self-control is leaking. You're the only one at war with all the peace of mind you're seeking. You feel you're somewhere in between What you want and what you seem. You know you¹re going nowhere 'cause you've lost your sense of feeling. Chorus: Oh, dreaming then Was so easy when You had Bohemian Soul Believing was being In flesh tone When your maverick spin Was attached to your skin You laughed Bohemian Soul Life's a gypsy, catching dreamers as they tire of the dancing. Pinched between her tapered fingers, victims dangle in her trance. And as she circles through the night plucking souls `till morning light, you borrow your tomorrow's strength while you're a shadow in her hands.

I constantly die every day of my life But at least I'm safe from pain and consequence I constantly breathe, my heart constantly beats There's a constant refrain from the blood and the heat Cause I live much deeper than death Further from the edge than where I die Further from the edge than where I hurt Further from the edge than where I cry I live, I live further from the edge Cats Got Nine I've got a multiverse Stitch in time For one small universe Cats got nine I'm down to one While I'm living and not living life I am me; here, there, everywhere Nowhere safe from not living life I am free from suffering pestilence I suffer from ignorance and I'm cheating life Cause I'll die much deeper than death Further from the edge than where I run Further from the edge than where I laugh Further from the edge than where I love I'll die, I'll die further from the edge Cats Got Nine I've got a multiverse Stitch in time For one small universe Cats got nine I'm down to one While I'm living and not living life

Feel It 06:45
I was a brushstroke in a portrait, sometimes proud, but most times vague. You defined me with a touch of light and saved me from the gray. Sometimes I¹d lose perspective but, only on the days I was feeling rather blameless but your eyes blamed me anyway. (chorus:) when the clouds over you challenge my view I'll lift the lullaby I sing into the richest blues to show my blackest truths can paint the mid-nights that you bring. Your heartbeat stretches clear to me I've cut myself to watch you bleed, your cover blown to smithereens. You can be a monster inside, but you're beautiful in my eyes 'cause you can feel it when I sting. Now I'm one rhyme in a poem, sometimes cursed, sometimes blessed, I'm trapped between the lines afraid of things you might confess. You're ending comes where I begin I end where you come next; Love's point seems rather aimless without you there to acquiesce. Chorus (Bridge:) Sleep now, won't you sleep I'm with you when you dream I'm wound up in your veins I'm anguished when you scream Sleep now, won't you sleep I'm there if you awake to share your living hell to hope for heaven's sake

The Shy Ones 05:27
You heard a voice You moved toward the sound Someone whispered your name Somewhere You look for noise Lonely carries sound With no one to explain ...Why it's there Chorus: If your heart and mind were sisters They both would be the shy ones and when an angel whispers You're afraid to dare the silence Once your heart had wings You could fly then learn to fall But, you don't trust in things That make no sense at all Bridge: Lost is the loneliness you live someone's calling you outside You know that something's got to give Or you'll lose your heart and mind.

You say you're ripe for table scraps The staple of the corporal zombie He¹s got six inch teeth and eyes so, black When he stares at you he wants meat Take it from a T-Rex dinosaur In a jungle full of carnivores You got to own more bite that¹s got teeth Chorus: You'll like the tiger bone wine king of drinks is the nature of the beast When you know that it takes all kinds No fat cat want's to maul your ass When you got canines Say, here kitty, kitty, is the raw nitty gritty Claw until their mortified, You'll like the tiger bone wine Peace of mind's your habitat You've had it with the corporate zombie He wants to eat your lean, chew the fat He knows where you keep your Mommy Take it from the T-Rex diners corp In the jungle no one's keeping score You got to over bite, he's got reach

I want to dream with you forever in this world You are who I am for forever in this world You are everything I ever dreamed of and more You are teardrops and laughter all things I adore Warm and loving I can fee you snuggle closely to me Softly, gently, I can kiss as you lay beside me I want to dream with you forever in this world You are who I am for forever in this world It's so cold here without you the rain streaks the day I keep thinking about you my sun's brightest ray What will be, I do not know What will be, will be What will be, I do not know All I know is that I love you Love to see I want to dream with you forever in this world

Everytime you smile the world becomes a brighter place like laughter on a child¹s face everytime you smile there's a thousand different visions in my head of the things we'd do if we were two instead Everytime you smile my worries don't seem so intense the world starts making better sense everytime you smile there's a thousand different visions in my head and I can't stop wishing you were in my bed you make blue a lighter shaded hue and your smile almost makes me smile too Everytime you smile the feelings almost come aloud the silver lining shrinks the cloud everytime you smile there's a thousand different visions in my head of the things we'd do if we were two instead and you almost makes me come out of my shell then I remember you belong to someone else

When Shelly plays he's got the faith to put the world in Heaven The music flows into his soul to the joy of all his brethren The music shines upon his face 'til he's no longer with us He's somewhere beyond the atmosphere past the Aurora Borealis. He's gone to Nirvana in the Notes He's gone to the ecstacy of harmony He's gone to somewhere in the zone right now He's gone. Shelly's found Nirvana in the Notes If I could find the place he's found then I would be in Heaven To be at one with the Universe through music without question Is someplace to aspire to more grand than any palace to soar beyond the atmosphere past the 'roura Borealis
