// teak
baby, baby
like you do
crying baby
think it over
so satisfied
your lips are touching mine
my mind and soul
make it sound soft
mama can't help me
give and take
let me be
a hurt i can't control
i had no name
yes, i will
as there are stars above
ain't no river
make this world
// litmus
at last i taste the honey
baby, don't you know
better than i
i'm like a woman who once knew splendor
the sky to shelter me
it ain't enough
pray for the lonely
The signs of misery
we had yesterday
ain't that easy
all i feel is strong
greyhound-bound
to keep my self respect
love me
burn me
the wonderful
i don't want to live
never measure love by time
i believe in fairytales
abundance of light
// mahogany
my spirit was free
sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love
your sympathy
changed the plan
guide in my pocket for fools
conditions
the rules
i'm here
respectfully i say to thee
the best
i want the world to know
a defense that i sometimes use
like the little children
royalties
I'm doing ok
i'm no great pretender
let this be
when i was young
i can't free a person from their chains
i feel so brokenhearted
