Heart On A Kite String
Don’t cry for me, my love
Though the hour is drawing near
Don’t cry for me, my love
The time has come for us to part, my dear
Don’t cry for me, my love
Our romance is at an end
I will gladly die for you, my darling
For I know I will rise again
My heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
I’m flying
Flying away
You crowned me king
Every time you called my name
You crowned me king
Darling, every time you closed your eyes and came
You crowned me king
And even though I’ve lost it all
There’s always one flag flying
So high above these castle walls
My heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
I’m flying
Flying away
Underneath the seven veils of mystery
I have a pair of angel’s wings
But, what good are they to me?
I’m only flesh and blood
Like all the lovers gone before
I’m only flesh and blood
Love leads me to believe that I can be so much more
I’m only flesh and blood
I stand here in this gathering gloom
I will cast my silhouette
So clear against that brave, romantic moon
My heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
Heart on a kite string
I’m flying
Flying away

Swallowing The Stars

Swallowing The Stars
Every time I think of you
I am reminded of this painting by Degas
Three dancers at the barre
They are standing in the shadows
Their bodies in repose
So beautiful and so completely unaware
Of just how beautiful they are
Every time I think of you
I am reminded of my heart in pirouette
The grand jete, the releve
The night we met
The moon fell into shadows
And all the planets
Were distracted from their course
I believe they are distracted yet
Oh, my darling
Take me down
Take me deeper
I ain’t your back door man
I ain’t your midnight creeper
I wanna be your lover, baby
Hold me
Hollow out my heart until the river turns to light
Swallowing the stars
And then deliver them again tonight
Take me down
Take me deeper down
I ain’t your back door man
I ain’t your midnight creeper
I wanna be your lover, baby

Dream Of Love

Dream Of Love
Once in a vision I believed in you
Love everlasting, love was ever true
I believed because I wanted to
Now I only dream of love
Down by the river in that shining hour
All of the beauty and all of the power
For one brief moment, darling
It was ours
Now I only dream of love
Late in the evening, if you say my name
And some of the beauty in it still remains
Then all of my endeavoring
Was not in vain
Now I only dream of love
Now I only dream of love

More Than Flesh And Blood
Slowly, so slowly, ever so slowly
She unbuttons her overcoat
She tilts back her head as far as it will go
I kiss the delicate blue vein
Pulsing in her throat
Baby, what are you waiting for?
Slip out of your evening dress
Take off that velvet choker
Let down your long, black hair
Take me where the music plays
And the candles flicker
Take me where my heart beats quicker
Than my heart has ever beaten before
More than flesh and blood
More, if you believe
More than flesh and blood
More
Two lovers can rise
Rise above
Rise
Rise above
In your sweat, I taste my body
In your eyes, I see my face
In your voice, I hear my music
In your vision of me
I can find a path to grace
To a place
That’s more than flesh and blood
More, if you believe
More than flesh and blood
More
Two lovers can rise
Rise above
Rise
Rise above
Can you hear it?
Sounds like a song the angels sing
Listen
Is it the sound of our breathing
Or the beating of our wings?
Meet me tonight on the steps of the temple
Come hither with a vengeance, darling
Come to me
We’ll go down alone into the vault of inspiration
But we’ll come out together
Baby, you’ll see
And I will pray for you
And you will pray for me
More
More than flesh and blood
More
More than flesh and blood

Rise Up Singing

Rise Up Singing
Fall into my arms
I have no desire to make you mine
No more arrows in your heart
Just my fingertips along your jawline
Fall away from me
Before I even know to catch my breath
It all just slips away
There is no beauty without death
And every sleeping flower holds the promise of the spring
And every precious hour blooms, then fades beyond our reckoning
I am bleeding faith
My heart is on the wing
I lay down dying
But I will rise up singing
No more words for now
Sometime, someplace, somehow
I will close my eyes and smile
Fall into the sky
Everything I am will evanesce
Is there a love that never dies?
I don’t know why
but I would answer
Yes
I lay down sighing
I lay down crying
I lay down dying
But I will rise up singing

On This Side Of Paradise

On This Side Of Paradise
Leave me to my own device
And I will build the temple twice
Love will be my Jesus Christ
And death will be my Judas
No one can see know the shape I’m in
Underneath this bone and skin
There is darkness, there is sin
And there is resurrection
On this side of paradise
Forsake me never
And wash me in the blood
On this side of paradise
I will give you all my love
Down here at the river’s end
I feel your presence strong again
Love, you were my first amen
And my last hallelujah
On this side of paradise
Forsake me never
And wash me in the blood
On this side of paradise
I will give you all my love
There ain’t no heaven, baby
There ain’t no kingdom come
There are not two sides, baby
There’s only one
You and I could take a vow
As fragile as the slender bough
That’s holding up the here and now
That we could stay together
But everything that’s precious, dear
We take it off and leave it here
To fade and then to disappear
So kiss me like you mean it
On this side of paradise
Forsake me never
And wash me in the blood
On this side of paradise
I will give you all my love
Leave me to my own device
And I will build the temple twice
Love will be my Jesus Christ
And death will be my Judas

Love Like A Halo

Love Like A Halo
Let’s use our imagination
Predict the future of our love affair
I see you standing waist deep in the water
But that’s not me beside you there
Me, I’m just the moonlight in your hair
It’s not a matter of right or wrong
It’s not a question of fidelity
Hearts have reasons of their own
And life’s no line from A to B
Your love like a halo
Love like a halo
I want to be
Your love like a halo
On the night we said goodbye
We looked up into the summer sky
And you said, "Oh, how I wish you were the one”
I said, "I don’t want to be the wish
I want to be the star you wish upon”
Love like a halo
Your love like a halo
I want to be
Your love like a halo
I want to be your wet dream
I don’t want to be the father of your child
Why should I be the voice of reason
When I can be the call of the wild?
And when your heart is broken
I know my heart will break a little too
And when you find someone to love
I’ll care for him
‘Cause I care about you
Let’s use our imagination
Predict the future of our love affair
I see you standing waist deep in the water
But that’s not me beside you there
Me, I’m just the moonlight in your hair
Your love like a halo

Rob Jungklas Memphis, Tennessee
It seems that Jung Klas a man of extremes who have emotions and soul torments rush through blood and nerves as music. Sometimes he sounds like a lost soul or like a wounded animal that wants to shake his skin. Away from him

One Go Around
by Jeffrey Martin
supported by 5 fans who also own “7 Sisters”
Title track was the first I'd ever heard of Jeff's work and it struck me like a ten-ton hammer. Was a perfect fit for the small-town college I was attending at the time, not far from train tracks itself. Every time I hear this, I can see the amber light of the street lamps and think about a few walks I made around campus in the dead of night. Still haven't grabbed hold of the life I've been given as firmly as I ought to, but this song soothes my regret...and the chorus reminds me....
