1.	One More Time 03:18	lyrics	buy track
The last few weeks have been a blur And I've spent the nights on the verge of tears And the days in hopeful anticipation Of the hour when I might get to Hold you again Will you ever know that for those few weeks How the moon shone down from the sky for you? And the morning light that drenched my bedroom Awoke me only that I might Hold you in my arms once again? Let me love you one more time One more time Before you go Little goddess standing there Behind your eyes and behind your guard I could see you in your loveliness If you'd stayed would you've showed that to me? If only in the silent midnight Just us alone? And have you ever been in love? Has a boy ever broken your heart? Or has one ever written a song for you? And poured out his feelings at your feet That he might get to call you his own? Let me love you one more time One more time Before you go 'Cause when I feel, yeah, I fell hard I can't shake the feeling we were doomed from the start Those few hours would've never been enough When you let me in and then left me with those Scratches all down the side of my neck I wrote this song just a little too late And it might not be finished till you've gone away Ba da da da da da ... ... Let me love you one more time One more time Before you go
2.	Going Back 03:11	lyrics	buy track
I'm going back in the morning To the land called Australia I'm going back now in the morning To the land I once called home I've got my bags all packed now With everything that I might need Yeah, I've got my bags all packed now With every little thing that I might need The only thing that I'll be missing I'll take with me in my memory The only thing that I'll be wishing Is that you'll stay here and you'll wait for me
3.	We Gotta Get Back, Baby (We Gotta Get Back There) 02:05	lyrics	buy track
When you wake up in the morning and open up your eyes Do you think god and feel glad to be alive? When the morning sun shines down upon your face Do you really feel it, baby, or do your thoughts slip away? We gotta get back, baby, we gotta get back there We gotta get back Gotta get back there Woah The sick god watches from his dome in the night sky The stars are dimly shining you can barely see their light My quest is to give form to the desperate look upon his face And when my soul goes wandering up there it'll take its place We gotta get back, baby, we gotta get back there We gotta get back Gotta get back there Woah
4.	Seeker 04:34	lyrics	buy track
Seeker, traveller I recall the morning you set out The first beard blooming upon your youthful cheek Seeker, wanderer Gradually sides are drawing up People have become estranged from one another Seeker, young man Many tears are moistening the earth While we wait for your return Seeker, lost one Many years now have passed us by And I am no longer a young girl Seeker, captive of the Dream theatres immutable throes Initiate of the guiding spirit Seeker, vision seer Tell us of what flashed before your eyes Tell us the words of the ancient ones
5.	One-Woman Blues 03:22	lyrics	buy track
I wanna be a one-woman man I wanna be a one-woman man I'm tired of running around town She gotta have a head of long hair She gotta have a head of long hair Want that hair down, baby, down to her breasts I wanna be a one-woman man I wanna be a one-woman man I'm tired of running around town She gotta have a pair of thick thighs She gotta have a pair of thick thighs My legs are long, yeah, they're long enough I wanna be a one-woman man I wanna be a one-woman man I'm tired of running around town She gotta want a lotta kids She gotta want a lotta kids Want that place a-jumpin', baby, with six or seven kids I wanna be a one-woman man I wanna be a one-woman man I'm tired of running around town I wanna be a one-woman man I wanna be a one-woman man I'm tired of running around town
6.	Song of a Cloven Man 04:37	lyrics	buy track
Long I have spent searching in this dry and vacant place The people's faces that I see are strange and unfamiliar Their words come out as if of a foreign tongue And for all their words and thoughts my soul remains unquenched Ohh Ahh In the night I met a man at the nexus of the ways From up beneath his hat he shot his gaze from his piercing eye He pointed me down in a valley where he said there rolled a stream Said if I know what I want I oughtta follow it to where it springs Ohh Ahh When I find you up there on the mountainside And look at last into your dark eyes When I find you up there beside that spring I only ask for one more thing Let the rain fall down Let the rain fall down Till the sun comes up in the morning Let the rain fall down
7.	A Dirge for a Young Man 04:55	lyrics	buy track
I can't quite get back there again Under the sunshine with you I can't quite recall your voice now It is fading from my mind The memory of your face Drifts closer day by day To the threshold of oblivion To be forgotten forevermore Rest now, young man Lay your wild hair down Rest now, young man Lay your wild hair down My heart breaks for the loss This world endures now that your gone The world feels emptier without you here And its joys aren't as full or real There's so much that I left unsaid So much life you were yet to live Forever twenty never twenty-one Despite the weight of all these years Rest now, young man Lay your wild hair down Rest now, young man Lay your wild hair down Lay your wild hair down Lay your wild hair down Lay your wild hair down

about

Sosruko New Plymouth, New Zealand

The strange circumstances around Sosruko's birth fixed his lot in this world as an outsider, fated to wander from place to place, often a fool, often a stranger, knowing many guises and playing many games.
