Calypso and so.

wait! I'll be right there
I didn't hear you knocking
oh, it was the wind.

help! I can't get in
and my key is not working
did you change the locks? 

please! leave the light on
if I'm sleeping on the porch
just throw me a bone

stop! you've done so much
and I can't take any more
let me give you some 

dawn is approaching
and my teeth are chattering
time to start again

one more day until
this is just a memory
and future is now

Tumbleweed

I'm still out there searching, for what I don't know. 

Still haven't found it anywhere I go.

I'm just a tumbleweed rolling along, 

A big gust of wind comes and I'm gone. 

I pick up my head and widen my eyes, 

but still I can't see through all of the flies.

There's a knife in my pocket, it's edge has been lost

So many strings cut with no regard for the cost.

I'm just a survivor, out here on the range.

Still looking for purpose for the rest of my days. 

I'm just a marauder with no moral code. 

Searching for warmth in my humble abode. 

When my season comes and the dog days gone, 

I'll be left with my empty jar and mournful song. 

"I'm just a tumbleweed, rolling along. 

A big gust of wind comes and I'm gone."
