Desert Dancing
Lionel Zivan S. Valldellon
1
We are thirsting for tomorrow and crack another stone.
The only water's in our eyes.
Feels like travelling forever, just wandering alone,
Still waiting for a big surprise.
CHORUS A
Desert dancing to the calf of gold,
We will wander till our tribe grows old.
2
We are hungry for our dinner, the bread we have is stale.
There's only so much one can eat.
In the morning, just like clockwork, there's manna on the hills
And yet we grumble as we feast.
CHORUS B
Desert dancing to the calf of gold,
We will wander till our tribe grows old.
Always glancing at what's left behind.
Salted pillars are a state of mind.
3
Rumors have it that we folow a column made of fire;
We've never seen it in our way.
So one foot after another, we cross this land entire,
Just living for the present day.
CHORUS C
Desert dancing with a heart of stone,
Never claiming this is now our home.
Desert dancing to the calf of gold,
We will wander till our story's told.

Crash Into The Sea
Lionel Zivan S. Valdellon
1
Maybe you could be the one.
Maybe all the finding and searching is done.
Maybe we can touch the sun.
But beware, your wings may fall apart
And you're way too far to hear my beating heart.
2
Everyone has come to see
Spectacle unfolding between you and me
They're calling it insanity
But when we unfurl our waxen wings,
They fall silent as we rush into the wind.
CHORUS
Distance and the world will come between us.
(The world wants us to fail.)
You've got to fly above the waves.
Never let the hurricanes impede us.
We're running out of days.
We're running out of days.
3
These may be our final days
We all know the end, not the time or the way
Let's enjoy it anyway
Spread your wings and learn to fly with me
All the world will watch us crash into the sea.
[CHORUS]

Reason and Rhyme
Lionel Zivan S. Valdellon
1
For hours and hours she talks to the flowers
She's saying nothing but sounding so sweet.
Her words fall like showers, while he sits and glowers.
"Those words are mine." That's his final conceit.
2
On Sunday, it's fun day. His sports are the runway.
He's watching TV from dawn until dusk.
He's ogling the horseplay while she's hoping someday
He'll fix the faucet that's crusted with rust.
CHORUS
Where did the love go?
Emotions once sincere have dried up with the passing of time.
Why did they let go?
The hands they once held dear
Are holding onto decades of grime.
Where did the love go?
Emotions once sincere have dried up with the passing of time.
Why did they let go?
The hearts they once held dear
Have turned away from reason and rhyme.

Apple Pie and Coffee
Lionel Zivan S. Valdellon
1
How many times did you tell that story
Of the diner who ate only apple pie and coffee?
How one day he chose to order something new
But then simply froze when told about the menu.
What wouldn't I give
To hear you tell that story once more —
Just as you did before.
CHORUS A
I still remember how I rode upon your shoulders.
Now your time is done, the world much colder.
Who knew just how quickly time would fly?
Wish that I'd been there to say goodbye.
2
How many times did we talk sincerely
Of wine, women, song and living life completely?
We both were afraid of serious conversation
Instead we would joke, let laughter ease the tension.
What wouldn't I give
To spend another moment with you —
Staring into the blue.
CHORUS B
I, I'd pretend to fall asleep while watching TV
So you'd carry me in your arms dearly.
Who will carry you unto your home?
Why'd you have to leave us here alone?
BRIDGE
You taught me: live your life with passion and
Do the best you can.
You taught me: find the work your heart is in,
Not where the money's at.
You taught me honesty in what you say;
Don't take the easy way.
You taught me: keep at it when things get hard,
Then you'll be okay.
[CHORUS B]
[CHORUS A]

The Ending's Just The Same
Lionel Zivan S. Valdellon
1
Delilah's cleaning up her shears.
My strength is gone, and secrets spill their way to tears.
And before my captors break into this room,
I will ask her who would architect my doom.
There's no one left to blame.
The ending's just the same.
2
My sight is fading as I wait.
Although I fear I won't get very far this day.
And so on and on I push for things to change.
And before too long, our lives are rearranged.
[SYNTH SOLO]
There's no one left to blame.
The ending's just the same.
CODA:
I go on and on and pray for strength to change.
When Delilah calls, my vows are rearranged.
And so on and on.I push for things to change.
But with every day, my life is ever strange.
There's no one left to blame.
The ending's just the same.
