iamenitharmon Gorgeous voice. Gorgeous album. Amazing lyrics. Certainly melancholy at times. But tracks like God and Dawn and Love's Soldier feel hopeful... as does Balm in Gilead. Favorite track: Red Ball Rising.

beguine33 This album is full of passion and such amazing story-telling and lyrics. Natalie's voice is on a whole other level. Would love to see this artist get some more recognition! Favorite track: Balm in Gilead.

Easy For You 01:35
Easy For You Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton and i told myself not to go and i told myself nothing good would ever come of it and i picked up the 19th Gospel Bus to the Red Line but nothing's gonna change your mind. No. Nothing's gonna change. You're mine... But I ... I ... I I was peaceful High-tide in my Summertime and I don't want to be No, I don't want to be so easy for you

Oh, Emmanuel 03:33
Emmanuel was friend of mine, and a little bit more from time to time. But love like that, you best forget. Now he's got a wife and a couple of kids. He's got a house in the San Francisco hills. And I'm still stuck in regret. Pre-Chorus: Oh, Emmanuel. Let's not kid ourselves. Chorus: We knew right from the start There's no way in hell I knew deep in my heart This is never gonna end well. (Repeat) But it's the nights like these I need Emmanuel. Verse Two: Now lately, it has occurred to me, That I never once loved him faithfully. But I never once thought that he'd just get up and leave. And as selfish as I'm about to sound, I still have to admit, I never hit the ground. I never thought he could ever love someone The way he loved me. Pre-Chorus: And so, Emmanuel, I kid myself. Chorus: Cause I knew right from the start, there's no way in hell. I knew deep in my heart this is never gonna end well. (repeat) Oh, but it's on nights like these I need Emmanuel. Outro: Sweet Sorrow Loverman's gone now. Sweet sorrow, Emmanuel. Sweet Sorrow Loverman's gone now. Sweet Sorrow Loverman's gone now. Sweet sorrow, Emmanuel. Sweet Sorrow Loverman's Gone Gone

Fishbowl 03:28
Hey there, babe. Do you know my name? Know I have not slept since I saw your face? Is that ok? I've seen you a baker dozen times I get a lump in my throat, ripe apple size. But you? You just walk on by. Oh, but I believe that you will be Falling In love with me. And I just thought you should know, That lately you have lived your life In a fishbowl. I drink so much now I can't get drunk I've got a trigger complex And a couple of bucks Is that enough? And I keep praying through a bottle haze That you'll get sick of her in a couple of days And so, I wait. Oh, but I believe that you will be Falling In love with me. And I just thought you should know, That lately you have lived your life In a fishbowl. Oh, but I believe that you will be Falling In love with me. And I just thought you should know, That lately you have lived your life In a fishbowl.

Falling Nightingales Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton Pick me I'm overgrown I'd suck a strawberry Just to feel anything at all And God It's like hell It's like falling nightingales God It's like hell It's like falling nightingales Take a look at us here I've got my pigtails on And you've got your little brown bear And God It's like hell It's like falling nightingales God It's like hell It's like falling nightingales Copyright 2004.

Mountain Man 03:33
Mountain Man Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton He said my soul is not as old as his is. He said I should find time to swim, to the Andes. Meet a Mountain Man. Meet a Mountain Man. Find awareness and Meet a Mountain Man. Meet a Mountain Man. Somewhere in the Andes. He said that we, “We are not meant to be” No. Not in this lifetime. He got down on his crooked knee and he told me Find a Mountain Man. Find a Mountain Man. Find awareness And Meet a Mountain Man. Meet a Mountain Man Somewhere in The Andes Somewhere in The Andes Meet a Mountain Man Meet a Mountain Man. Baby Find awareness And Meet a Mountain Man Need a Mountain Man Somewhere Somewhere In the Andes

Two Step 02:55
Two Step Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton I don't think I'm gonna Pass this time I don't think I've got my Two Step on the ground I wonder if I'll never cause me pain I wonder if I'll ever take the drug again When you gonna get up When you get up Arm up Head up When you gonna get up When you gonna lift my head up To the sky No I don't think that we are Meant to be But with a little work We could fake it Endlessly Just know I like it best With the noise still on So I can't hear my head Can't hear the voices moan When you gonna get up When you gonna get up Hooked up Armed up When you gonna get up When you gonna lift my head up To the sky I don't think I'm gonna Pass this time I don't think I've got my Two Step on the ground

Red Ball Rising Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton Oh October Only say The Word And I would run to you I'd drive all night Thieves and guns And wayward sailors come I've given all I could But you're still gone I searched these city streets Where street lamps call to me Then fade to white And I I've been here before I built these city walls And I keep on driving With that Red Ball Rising August calls My walls are coming down My eyes are fallen now As I chase this Knight Gods in crowds March's Holy Lords I thought I'd take a bow But I keep on driving I've searched these city streets Where street lamps call to me Then fade to white And I I've been here before I built these city walls And I keep on driving And I Looked for yesterday Can't find my yesterday And I keep on I keep on I You know I've looked for you I prayed that Harvest Moon And I keep on driving With that Red Ball Rising With that Red Ball Rising

Cruel Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton Black Red and Blue Are the colors I see Each time I see you Pull out of here Skid-markin' streets Each time I miss you Why did you come around here And break down defenses Why did you come around here Cruel is what this is And you'll never know The trouble I've caused Those who have hurt me 'Cause I will be kind Give you a ten second lead Run now Desert me Why did you come around here And break down defenses Why did you come around here Cruel Cruel Why do you come around here And break down Break Why'd you come around here Cruel is what this is Black Red and Blue Are the colors I see

God and Dawn - (The Tyger Song) Music & Lyrics by Natalie Hamilton Take me high Take me higher Lightening to Pyre Burn me up in flames On a Friday night Light up the disaster A Comic lost his laughter Warrior babes are ringing bells In this Lawless holograph Cue up the disaster Who put the curtain in the rafter Take me high on a Friday Night A bird in starlight On a Friday Night I whisper to the wind Won't you let me fly I'm crying all the time Take me high on a Friday Night I'm singing Holy On a Friday Night I whisper to the wind Come on let me fly I'm crying all the time Baby only God and Dawn Can break me now Lightening to Pyre Burn me up in flames On a Friday Night Cue up the disaster In the Shadow of the Night Warrior Babes are ringing bells While the Tyger sits and waits Light up the disaster Who knew a Tyger can't be tamed Take me high on a Friday Night You know me Take me high on a Friday Night I whisper to the wind Won't you let me fly I'm crying all the time Take me high on a Friday Night A bird in starlight On a Friday Night I whisper to the wind Come on let me fly I'm crying all the time Baby only God and Dawn God and Dawn God and Dawn Can break me now Take me high Take me higher
