2 CD set US promo. This particular release does not have the track listing on the CD's. The CD's came with photocopied back insert of the regular US issue as well as a photocopy of the cover. The section that looks like a sticker is actually printed onto the disc and reads: "Licensed for promotional use. Not A Sale. This CD cannot be transferred without consent of record company. Use or retention of this CD signifies acceptance of this licence."
The catalogue number looks like 7243 8 50017 27 7243 8 50018 26. That is printed on both discs so the first half must be for disc one (7243 8 50017 27) and the second half for disc two (7243 8 50018 26).

The Scent Of Magnolia
In the coldest hour something's going down Whatever pierced the heart it didn't make a sound I am terrified but I'm not losing sleep If I'm falling then I'm falling at her feet
I'm leaving America, I'm taking a girl I'm selling my soul again, I'm gaining the world Every sense defies this impossible dream None of the history books describe what I've seen
The rose, the breath, the undying spark The lotus heart's open, embracing the dark The uncharted road is the not-coming-back The language I speak is the words that I lack The oncoming cars, the wedding of stars
Well I know your name or recognise your face Or by what means I'll be delivered from this place Here comes the gun, there goes the flash Once the bullet leaves it's never coming back
The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl And every detail embodies the world What kind of goals define this impossible dream None of the picture-books reflect all I've seen
I'm leaving America, I'm taking the girls I'm far from the future and ambush the world
The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl And every detail embodies the world What kind of goals define this impossible dream None of the history books describe where I've been
I'm leaving America, I'm taking a girl I'm far from the future and ambush the world

Heartbeat (Tainai Kaiki II)
I see the lines in the palm of its hand now I listen hard but no words spring to mind And it sounds so sweet, listen to its heartbeat And I'm drowning in its sea Falling at its feet Listen to my heartbeat baby
And the blood sail leaves tonight Fated in its blindness And it won't be long before help is at hand And the darkness sleeps Cushioning the heartbeat And I killed the captain, sank the fleet To liberate the heartbeat baby And it sounds so sweet And it sounds so sweet Listen to our hearts beat
And the darkness sleeps Cushioning the heartbeat And I'm drowning in its sea Falling at its feet Listen to my heartbeat baby
It speaks to ghosts and souls alike Springs to life, and doesn't think twice Wrapped in the blood sail Bathed in snow Nailed to the source and it won't let go Fed on the bible, grown from trees It opened the mind and the heart was free A home in the silence, safe from sound Where trouble sleeps and the light is found
I hold you in A sea of silence On the borderline of truth Open violence I see no sign I see no place I've loved Depending on the signs To fine the road
Blackwater take me with you To the place that I have spoken Come lead me through the darkness To the light that I long to see again
I walk with you But sleep beside her The summer came and went It passes us over
I see her cry I see the face I have loved Depending on the blind To find the road
Blackwater take me with you To the place that I have spoken Come lead me through the morning For the land that I long to see again
He arrives by night Open up the door and let him in She's the sole proprietor Exchanging two for one She's the sole proprietor There is no other Who would have thought she's in Albuquerque When mother calls he must come Out of hiding Remembers nothing Takes the books Shades of mid-life crisis Eyes of petrochemical blue

Ride
Messages ran all over town Words without sound Condemned me And left me for dead All over again It wasn't the first time, but this time Things will never be the same
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground In the church of the lost and found The angels cry Ride, ride until the darkness closes in Until the ravaged soul begins To reflect the open skies, ride
The chapel was burned Razed to the ground From the darkest of clouds Small birds tumbled like rain Time and again You may go charging at windmills In these days Absurdities never change
Ride, ride the very thought into the ground In the church of the lost and found The angels cry Ride, ride until the darkness closes in Until the ravaged soul begins To reflect the open skies, ride
In the thick of the woods The word is taboo In the darkest of continents Light can deceive you
Ride, saddle up your thoughts and run to ground In this world of lost and found The eagles fly, ride
Taken from the Secrets Of The Beehive sessions, completed 2000. Previously unreleased.

The Golden Way
She said "come to me and sit you down" You'll always return as I promised you would When you're through playing games with the bad and the good Immerse your heart The remains of the day On the golden way
She's telling me stories of surrender and joy Of warrior gods that the heavens deployed And love that spills out from the words on the page In this golden age In this golden age In this golden age
Shoot an arrow to Shiva through the blood of the sun The prayers of a lifetimes will not go unsung On the golden way On the golden way The shadows emerge from night into day And rally through lifetime in anger and rage But love embraces all In the golden age In this golden age
The knife enters deep but I'm longing to sing The fool's ready to take the place of the king It's the wildest of things Destroyed and glistening On the silent wings On the golden Way

This track is included because David himself said that Ghosts was the first track that indicated the new direction of his compositions after the Japan period.

Pop Song
Behind the iron gates The shifts were worked in silence Each weekend beckoned like Ulysses' Sirens And as the words were few We'd listen to the radio It was loud and irritated me so
I'll tell you I love you I'll tell you I love you Like my favourite pop song
These promises won't keep Though every road begins and ends with you The fall still hurts, the bruise still blue I'll paint you pictures of bright tomorrows But the money goes and the time goes too
I'll tell you I love you I'll tell you I love you Like my favourite pop song I'll tell you I love you Like the stars above you Like my favourite pop song Favourite pop song
Wild, unwise, trivialised, untrue
We squander these gifts Like another Sunday supplement They're just so much cash In the hands of the government
I'll tell you I love you I'll tell you I love you Like my favourite pop song Favourite pop song
Help me I feel like I'm weightless Floating right out of your hands And there's only so much I aspire to Taking one day at a time And deliverance has many faces But grace is an aquaintance of mine Tell me how could it have happened You know that we're not the marrying kind. Travel light, don't think twice We're leaving the shadows behind. It's given us, yeah This wonderful wanderlust. It's given us this wonderful wanderlust It's given us this wonderful wanderlust I don't doubt it, I feel it, yeah Wanderlust Wanderlust
Help me, this waterboys wasted Falling right out of your sky And there's nothing that could do without you Loving the state that I'm in Between no longer and not yet On the threshold of some bright affair The match was struck and I was fired The embers of a drowning man Tell me why won't I listen Or acknowledge that I don't understand Losing light, a selfish kind And we're out on the road again. It's given us, yeah This wonderful wonderlust. It's given us this wonderful wanderlust It's given us this wonderful wanderlust I don't doubt it, I feel it, yeah
Turn the headlights on full I want to take in it all And let it wash over me The bridge looks so high From the ledge that we climbed But we climbed them so that we could be free Give me no dreams of what the future brings I need to know when I have gone too far, oh Repeated lightening strikes Up and down the spine They search us out wherever we go In a world full of lies That tug at the truth I'm taking no sides Now I recognise you.
One push You fall in Born in darkness Built on shame And hurting Filled with silence Filled with silence And stars Stars Stars Find the ladder Climb the ladder To God's monkey No songs To sing That I believe in That I believe in Can't breathe the air It's too thin This far from heaven This far from heaven And stars Stars Find the ladder Climb the ladder To God's monkey.
I'm waiting on the empty docks Watching the ships come in I'm waiting for the agony to stop Oh, let the happiness in I'm watching as the gulls all settle down Upon the empty vessels The faded whites of their wedding gowns The songs of hopeless selflessness
The cold December Sun A cold that blisters The hands of a working man Wasted
I'm waiting on the empty docks Watching the ships roll in I'm longing for the agony to stop Oh, let the happiness in
Oh, let the happiness in
Listen to the waves against the rocks I don't know where they've been I'm waiting for the skies to open up And let the happiness in
When the little one came A hole was blown open A partial surrendering in the midst of knowing And for an instance the constant heart shed its own tears Wave upon wave carried me over Beyond the peripheries of hope and fear Deadening the voice of relentless biography I stood at the center and danced at the extremities Mapping the city as subtle as silence Then on, outwards, into the darkness When the crazy one came She placed her finger on my forehead And pushed on through I woke up, face on fire Spitting out diamonds Thoroughly lost to logic Craving her madness

The Boy With The Gun
He knows well his wicked ways A course of bitterness A grudge held from his childhood days As if life had loved him less Reading down his list of names He ticks them one by one He points the barrel at the sky Firing shots off at the sun
"I am the law and I am the King I am the wisdom, listen to me sing"
He carves out the victim's names In the wooden butt of the gun He leans well back against the tree He knows his Kingdom's come He'll breath a sigh self satisfied The work is in good hands He shoots the coins into the air And follows where the money lands
"I am the law and I am the King I am the wisdom, listen to me sing"
He pauses at the city's edge Of hellfire and of stone He summons up the devil there To give him courage of his own He'll free the sinners of deceit They'll hear his name and run His justice is his own reward Measured out beneath the sun
"I am the law and I am the King I am the wisdom, listen to me sing"
I see your eyes light up like fire It's medicine to me But as the hunted live their lives You're keeping out of reach
So I keep running, falling Till I reach the water Run with me holyman But when I reach out I find I'm standing right beside her Now we're living Blessed with all the thunder in the world
Now, should you ask me to come home To wake up from the sleep Like a boat inside a storm Is there no hope for me?
So I keep running, falling Wade into the water Run with me riverman But when I reach out I find I'm standing right beside her Now we're living Blessed with all the thunder in the world
Little girl Won't you come inside and play Aparna and Nimisha Have played with you all day Isobel, come inside The sun is setting It's getting dark Nimisha's gone away Come inside and play
They've stolen the moon The magic is gone And there in its place A black midnight sun The darkness is frightening And love is denied They've stolen the moon God only knows why The stars have lost their daughter The devil's thieves have won And there in her place A black midnight sun
They've stolen the moon The magic is gone And there in its place A black midnight sun The darkness is frightening And love is denied They've stolen the moon God only knows why The stars have lost their daughter The devil's thieves have won And there in her place A black midnight sun
They've stolen the moon The magic has gone And there in this place A black midnight sun The darkness is frightening And love is denied They've stolen the moon God only knows why
The stars have lost their daughter The devil's thieves have won And there in her place
Standing firm on this stony ground The wind blows hard Pulls these clothes around I harbour all the same worries as most The temptations to leave or to give up the ghost I wrestle with an outlook on life That shifts between darkness and shadowy light I struggle with words for fear that they'll hear But Orpheus sleeps on his back still dead to the world
Sunlight falls, my wings open wide There's a beauty here I cannot deny And bottles that tumble and crash on the stairs Are just so many people I knew never cared Down below on the wreck of the ship Are a stronghold of pleasures I couldn't regret But the baggage is swallowed up by the tide As Orpheus keeps to his promise and stays by my side
Tell me, I've still a lot to learn Understand, these fires never stop Believe me, when this joke is tired of laughing I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing
Sleepers sleep as we row the boat Just you the weather and I gave up hope But all of the hurdles that fell in our laps Were fuel for the fire and straw for our backs Still the voices have stories to tell Of the power struggles in heaven and hell But we feel secure against such mighty dreams As Orpheus sings of the promise tomorrow may bring
Tell me, I've still a lot to learn Understand, these fires never stop Please believe, when this joke is tired of laughing I will hear the promise of my Orpheus sing
Welcome to Sun State The language of light The energy's impulse The loud, dark, iron The purpose of history The Eurasian Steppes From treshold to treshold Astonishment.
You've misunderstood the place where you stand Godman.
From different maps Dead bees on a cake You're sweeping the forest Man, it's getting late The milkweed is growing Through cotton grass You borrowed the car But you didn't ask.
You've misunderstood the place where you stand Godman.
The everything's dark You're wrapped up Born into brightness
Underneath a burning sun There's always work to be done We take much more than we care to give away
You'll be the moth, I'm the flame I'll bless you and keep you safe and sound Until sunrise comes around again
I'm like a mountain made of stone I'm like a new day dawning I'll be here every morning, close to you
We'll sail on a river, way out to the Baltic sea Love will keep us together And the tide will draw you close to me (Never words so true, never words so wise) Love will keep us together 'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye
I burn a candle in your place I picture the passions on your face Feelings that rise on a wave and fall away
All the pleasures have returned All of the lessons I should have learned Return again to light, for us to see
You're like a map of buried gold I search for treasures in your soul And when I'm gone, you'll know I will come back to you
We'll sail on a river, way down to the salty sea Love will keep us together And the tide will draw you close to me (Never words so true, never words so wise) Love will keep us together 'Cause there's more to this than meets the eye
I'm like a mountain made of stone I'm like a new day dawning I'll be here every morning, close to you
