    when you find yourself in darkness
    cling to what you can remember of the light.

    When all seems lost and confusion prevails
    look for the helpers and help them.

    In Gods hands.








    Lahaina Lyrics
    I was sitting at a table on an open bay
    Waiting for drink of rum
    When I asked my waiter for the time of day
    She said, "Look out there's a centipede coming your way"

    In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow
    In Lahaina, the living is slow
    In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
    But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

    I was lying by the water in the morning sun
    Shaded by a coconut tree
    When I turned around it was all I could see
    There was great big centipede staring at me

    In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow
    In Lahaina, the living is slow
    In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
    But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

    I had only just a second to decide what to do
    While looking at his poisonous fangs
    When I said I thought it was a beautiful day
    He said, "Wow Mr. Hall, I think you're pushing my leg"

    In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow
    In Lahaina, the living is slow
    In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet
    But the centipede he crawls all over your feet

    Lyrics

    She came from Providence
    One in Rhode Island
    Where the old world shadows hang
    Heavy in the air
    She packed her hopes and dreams
    Like a refugee
    Just as her father came across the sea
    She heard about a place
    People were smilin'
    They spoke about the red man's way
    And how they loved the land
    And they came from everywhere
    To the Great Divide
    Seeking a place to stand
    Or a place to hide
    Down in the crowded bars
    Out for a good time
    Can't wait to tell you all
    What it's like up there
    And they called it paradise
    I don't know why
    Somebody laid the mountains low
    While the town got high
    Then the chilly winds blew down
    Across the desert
    Through the canyons of the coast
    To the Malibu
    Where the pretty people play
    Hungry for power
    To light their neon way
    Give them things to do
    Some rich men came and raped the land
    Nobody caught 'em
    Put up a bunch of ugly boxes
    And Jesus people bought 'em
    And they called it paradise
    The place to be
    They watched the hazy sun
    Sinking in the sea
    You can leave it all behind
    Sail to Lahaina
    Just like the missionaries did
    So many years ago
    They even brought a neon sign
    "Jesus is coming"
    Brought the white man's burden down
    Brought the white man's reign
    Who will provide the grand design?
    What is yours and what is mine?
    'Cause there is no more new frontier
    We have got to make it here
    We satisfy our endless needs
    And justify our bloody deeds
    In the name of destiny
    And in the name of God
    And you can see them there
    On Sunday morning
    Stand up and sing about
    What it's like up there
    They call it paradise
    I don't know why
    You call someplace paradise
    Kiss it goodbye

    Not a re-post George, the interview was only one day old when I posted it, make sure to watch it.

    Sklar is legendary. He has played with everyone, and is a great story-teller.

    Where lies the final the finale harbor
    once we unmoor no more?
    in what rapt either sails the world\
    of which the weariest shall never weary

    Where is the foundlings father hidden?

    our souls are like those orphans whose unwed mothers die in bearing them

    the secret of our paternity lies in the grave
    and we must there to learn it.

    from Moby Dick

    What is so different about Cooper in this film is that he is terrified but his duty will not release him.

    these lyrics are as deep as they come
    so not that easy to get their entire meaning


    This song has given me an answer To so many questions young seekers have asked

    "Because your sorrows are still unborn"
