Even Better

Highly improbable
Remarkably rare
Indescribably irregular
Unlikely in the extreme
Extraordinarily uncommon
Absolutely positively anomalously preposterous
But it's even better than you thought
Nobody would have ever guessed
You couldn't put a price on it
The wager's not worth the bet
Not a chance not even a chance
But here we sit
Wallowing in the glory of the thing
If you'd told me earlier
I'd have looked you right in the eye
and said man you're crazy
But it's better than you thought
Even better than you thought

The Gods

The God of darkness sees only light
The God of the day knows only night
The God of of the flowers is made out of weeds
The God of you you looks a lot like me
The God of the wind is made out of sand
The God of the sea he knows only land
and the God of the water could never get wet
and the God of our love seems to always forget
But the God of time is always late
The God of our plans he knows not his fate
The God of wakefulness always asleep
The mountain God lies in a mine somewhere deep
The Goddess of mercy she carries a sword
The Goddess of of silence can always be heard
The God of reality lives in a dream
The Goddess of you lives inside of me
The God impermanence will last forever
The God true meaning is light as a feather
The God of the champion lives in defeat
The Goddess of you lives right inside of me
The God of our tears is smiling on
While the God of mistakes has never been wrong
A dog with his bone is a god to the flea
The Goddess of you lives inside of me

Someone's licking my memory clean
Got me ticking like a time machine
I'm a giggle bear for your jiggle machine ...

Merkwürdige Liebe

What strange stage do you dance across
It pulls me from my seat
What strange singers are calling out
They draw the voice out of me
They pull the breath out of me
Though I call this world my own,
it was made for you I see
What wonderful wind
Has blown you into my tree
What beautiful breeze
Has wrapped your string around me
Has intertwined you with me
Though I call this world my own,
it was made for you I see
Thunder, lightning and rain come crashing
Has me hiding my head
Black cats crossing and terrible omens
Still I say, "What fortune and fate has drawn you to me?"
What love, what strange love, what strange love is this?
