Valentine's Day Written by Diana Wild I can't get high enough to forget Tomorrow is valentine's day. That heartless reminder of days that were kinder When love was not 10,000 miles away. Robert sent Rita some roses today Her desk was the talk of the towers. She was all smiles as they lined up for miles They all lined up to smell Rita's flowers. I can't get high enough to forget Tomorrow is Valentine's day That heartless reminder, when you're alone in the diner And love is 10,000 miles away. The Jones' are taking a romantic cruise On a river that winds through the trees They'll rock on the water, get hotter and hotter. Tipsy and bubbly and free...Yeah! Free! I can't get high enough to forget Tomorrow is Valentine's Day That heartless reminder of days that were kinder When love was not 10,000 miles away When love was not 10,000 miles away On Valentine's day...

The Gap 03:22
The Gap Written by Diana Wild The gap was getting wider, you cringed in the light So, on somethin' like a raven You glided out.... Into the darkest night. You put your faith in reason And closed up heaven's doors Now the fickle wind of reason has blown you back To my sunny shores. You came in and locked the doors (the birds sang in the trees) Drew the shades a little more (there was a warm spring breeze) And then one day....you glided out the door. And then one day....you glided out........... Into the darkest night.

Balance on a Rimrock Written by Diana Wild When I retired to this little prairie town I climbed up on a rimrock And a cold strong wind blew me down. And just when I was feelin' kinda happy and free, A deer ate all my flowers, and my new apple tree. It's a rough and rock landscape underneath a big blue sky With fields of gold so beautiful that a tear falls from my eye. I picked up a paintbrush, spread some blue and then some gold Filled in with a little green and a picture began to unfold I realized, like life itself, land has it's ups and downs Spring grass on the prairie, 'till winter mows it down. It's a rough and rocky landscape underneath a big blue sky With fields of gold so beautiful that a tear falls....from my eye. It's been this way for all these years, the smiles and then the frowns, Sunsets knock your socks off And cold strong winds can knock you down. I wake up in the mornin', no surprises, no dreams Just take life as it happens, never worry about what it means. It's a rough and rocky landscape underneath a big blue sky With fields of gold so beautiful, that a tear falls from my eye. Oh, yes, the fields are beautiful and a tear is falling.... From my eye.

Lean Into It 02:57
Lean Into It Written by Diana Wild Drop your bucket way down in the well Dip you up a little taste of hell You might as well. When the wind is travelin' through your town Blowin' mighty sinful And you're lyin' in bed, covers over your head Don't know if you won't or if you will. Drop your bucket way down in the well Dip you up a little taste of hell You might as well. When the wind is tearin' off the roof Lean into that howlin' gale Don't you miss a chance to do your dreamy dance, Swing your pitchfork, swing your tail...and Drop your bucket way down in the well Dip you up a little taste of hell You might as well. Lean into that warm wind, feel the sweet heat Listen to the wind chimes, Playin' for the good times, Feel that dreamy dance movin' your feet...and Drop your bucket way down in the well Dip you up a little taste of hell, You might as well.

Pines 04:26
Pines Written by Diana Wild I made if out of Knoxville, it took a long, long time Finally moved my heart away But sometimes, I still sit and pine. There's pining in the folded notes passed from hand to hand There's pining in the newspapers down at the corner stand. And the pining gets even better when the wind bends the trees Pine needles flying, floating down The crystal clear mountain streams. I packed my suitcase when I left, left the rest behind. I didn't want all that ragged stuff, but Sometimes, I still sit and pine. There's pining in the mournful songs played by mournful bands, There's pining at the microphones in joints across the land, And the pining gets even better when the sun does it's thing And shines it's light on all of us who joyful, mournful, sing. Looking back in history at all those written lines I know I'm not the only one who sometimes Sits and pines. There's pining in the paintings that hang on walls across the land, There's pining in the dog-eared notebooks in the backs of rusty vans, And the pining gets even better when the rain fills the streams And pours down mountains into valleys and washes away Those burning memories. I won't go back to Knoxville, no more flashing neon signs I'm moving to the mountains To live among.....the ponderosa pines.

Glow in the Dark Written by Diana Wild I waited years for a chance to be near you, Get myself jailed in your cell. But just as the door slammed I recalled a vision from hell And I couldn't do it, I couldn't, for your sake I was afraid of breaking you, Afraid...I would break. Either way I'm broken hearted Unless we succeed where others have failed, Glow in the dark where others have paled. I see your shadow pass by your window, Shoulders turned down toward the ground. And I want to lift you, fly you, sail you around. But I couldn't do it, I couldn't...for your sake. I was afraid of breaking you, Afraid...I would break. Either way I'm broken hearted Unless we succeed where others have failed, Glow in the dark where others have paled. Can we glow in the dark where others have paled?

Moondust 03:36
Moondust Written by Diana Wild I used to stare up at the moon at night And think about the earth spinning But that was thirteen trillion stars ago During a battle I was winning. Now I carry the flag of honor but I'm feelin' kinda funny Moonglow spread over barstools, wasted money. Play me along with your stories Deal from a pack of lies Pump the moon so full it pops And falls into our eyes. Moondust fell from way out there, I could not cry it out Moonglow lights on silver hair, I could not brush it out. Golden light, shards of sky, reflected in our eyes. What's behind your lovely glow? will the curtain ever rise? What's behind your lovely glow? and will the curtain ever rise?

Cozy Communion Written by Diana Wild I handed everything I had to you Now I must move on. You helped me empty out our home, the one where the heart is gone. You didn't even stand on the porch and wave your lonesome fist, You let me drive the van away, the one where we first kissed, High up on a mountain, love flowin' like a fountain. Yodel ay e hoo...yodel ay e hoo. I didn't hear you holler "come back here, my love" Or request our souls' reunion, Nor cry out for another chance to roll around In a cozy communion. You didn't even stand on the porch and wave your lonesome fist, You let me drive the van away, the one where we first kissed, High up on a mountain...love flowin' like a fountain. Yodel ay e hoo.....yodel ay e hoo. I handed everything I had to you, Now I must move on. No rain today, the air is clear, No right, no wrong. You didn't even stand on the porch and wave your lonesome fist You let me drive the van away, the one where we first kissed, High up on a mountain, love flowin' like a fountain. Yodel ay e hoo....yodel aye hoo...

Flashback 03:57
Flashback Written by Diana Wild Earth is spinning out the time. Heart is running way behind. Flashback 30 years, remember all those salty tears. He laughed when he meant to cry, tried everything to keep his high. Loved the smokey, whiskey kind.... they were always on his mind. Now he's like a tumbleweed, fragile bone, slender reed, Hollow map of where he's been. He's been picked up by the wind. Sun is sending out the rays, burning down another day. He flies free of the fire, spins out like a circus flyer. Now he's back to try again. Says he's gonna practice Zen. Clears his mind, sets it free....underneath the bohdi tree. Earth is spinning out the time, heart is lagging way behind. Flashback 3 million years, remember all those salty tears. Ocean of Tears... Ocean, fishes, birdies, all those green things that grow, all those little salty things that crawl, mammals, Ocean.

about

Ten songs written by Diana Wild were chosen from 100's of songs. Most express the Yin Yang of life in some way. They were recorded and engineered by Mac Charles, who also played all the instruments. Check his page on Bandcamp as he is a wonderful songwriter, as well. It took more than a year to put this recording together and I hope you will enjoy it and give feedback. Thanks for listening.
