GREYCOUNTY WINTER©Tim Harrisonand Second Avenue Songs 2004
When Orion spins in the southern skies
And the autumn leaves go rolling by
Then trees stand naked to the wind
And the winter time comes rolling in
It’s then our souls must stand the wait
Forthe new days that they will create
And try once more to find somelove
In the darkness we must rise above
The Winter Solstice rolls on through
The New Year marks new things to do
Forgiving all our guilt and sins
With another chance to start again
When Orion spins in the autumn skies
And the autumn leaves go rolling by
Then trees stand naked to the wind
And the winter time comes rolling in

WESTERN SPRING©Tim Harrisonand Second Avenue Songs
The warm wind comes and blows away
The winter cold and the shorter day
And the earth it nods to meet the sun
And Orion’s hunt is almost done
.And the people dance all around the square
As music flowsand it fills the air
And time to breath in deep and clear
To find the love and leave the fear
And it’s time for seed to drive its way
Through the warming ground to the feeding rain
And the colours come and the gray it goes
And sun pours down and green grass grows.
And the people dance all around the square
As music flows and it fills the air
And time to breath in deep and clear
To find the love and leave the fear

She Blooms

She Blooms
Verse:
The warm wind comes as the spring rain’s done
The earth turns over in the summer sun
Harrows and rakes and shovels and hoes
Turn mounds of the earth into clean straight rows
And she wipes her brow on bended knee
As she parts the earth to plant the seed
She stands to see if her line is true
And bends back down cause there’s work to do
Chorus:
And she blooms, she blooms, she blooms, she blooms
She blooms.
Small leaves push and split the ground
And she stares in wonder at the life they found
Walks down each row and checks each one
Smiles and turns to feel the sun
And she blooms, she blooms, she blooms, she blooms,
She blooms.
Bridge:
And the colours comes and she dances and swirls
With every move she thanks the world
For Giving
And as warm rain blows across her skin
She’s grateful for the life
That she’s been Living
Verse:
And now it’s time to clear the ground
And save the seed for next time round
And in her mind she paints a patch
There’s plans to make, and dreams to catch
And she blooms, she blooms, she blooms, she blooms.

SONG OF THANKSGIVINGTim Harrison and Second SONG Avenue Songs 2002
When the Northern Wind blows in
And the earth tips from the sun
When the harvest is complete
And all the work is done
Then we know we’ll feel the chill
And we know the snow will fall
‘Til the woods are filled
And then is the time we make our Thanksgiving
When all the things that can
Would try to pull us down
And our darkest hour’s at hand
And we’re spinning all around
Then the winds will change again
And we know that hope comes back
From where it’s been
And thenis the time we make our Thanksgiving
And in thisworld of speed
It’s hard just to be
And the things we really need
Are always hard to see
And I know we’re flyin’ blind
But maybe we’ll find our way if we try
And now is the time we must make our Thanksgiving (repeat line)
