1.Save Me, Clara
2.Damrell's Fire
It felt like winter everywhere except for Summer Street,
there the flames were all anybody anywhere could see
and from the top of Beacon Hill we watched the fire spill over
Water Street
It started quickly, the flames in a shootout on a city street,
jumping roof to roof like they were running from a robbery
and everywhere you turned, another building burned, now it's all
debris
and everybody knows where they were the night the fire came
everybody found who they were the night the fire came and
swallowed me whole
With our backs on Broad Street, the captain told us all we had
to hold the line,
but the horses were laid up in bed, and the engines couldn't
make the climb
so the word spread down the wire, the flames were getting higher
here in Damrell's Fire
and everybody knows where they were the night the fire came,
everybody found who they were the night the fire came and
swallowed me whole
3.The Liberator
4.Walden And The Willow Tree
I woke up to the sound of Alexander on my phone,
I saw you in a wicker chair, reading Edgar Allen Poe...
Far from Salem by the sea, to Walden and the willow tree
stop and ask Elias how
the beads stay on your dressing gown
and Sam is sending notes in code,
the authors lie in sleepy homes
far away from smoke and cars,
we'll lie in leaves and count the stars
5.Celia's Garden
6.Ballad Of Winslow Homer
Take a walk along the North Road,
where the wind chills to the bone
Old Friends On The Shore,
they're throwing stones
singing you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
Spend an Early Evening debating what you know,
but watch out for the Undertow,
cause you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
On a Lee Shore we could stay,
watch the Dark Hours drift away
On a Lee Shore we would stay,
never Answering the Horn we'd stay
and spend our cool October Days,
Lazy, Casting in the Falls
by The Old Mill there's a pond, a stone's throw
but you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
7.Webster Thayer
Take a walk along the North Road,
where the wind chills to the bone
Old Friends On The Shore,
they're throwing stones
singing you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
Spend an Early Evening debating what you know,
but watch out for the Undertow,
cause you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
On a Lee Shore we could stay,
watch the Dark Hours drift away
On a Lee Shore we would stay,
never Answering the Horn we'd stay
and spend our cool October Days,
Lazy, Casting in the Falls
by The Old Mill there's a pond, a stone's throw
but you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home
you can keep the war, I'm Rowing Home

11.Abigail, Don't Be Long
I saw you standing in the sycamore shade,
bending promises your mother made
writing letters on a wooden fence,
I know you're keeping it in confidence
singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
ooh, Abigail don't be long
You know the pen you're holding in your hand?
It's like the summer for a freezing man
Abigail, when am I gonna learn?
The empty pages will never make the fire burn,
singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
ooh, Abigail don't be long
ooh..
Singing ooh, Abigail don't be long
ooh, Abigail don't be long
I know you never liked the London rain,
you'd trade the tower for a weather vane,
but Abigail, now won't you stay a spell?
You've got me praying at your wishing well,
singing ooh, Abigail don't be long,
ooh, Abigail don't be long
ooh, Abigail don't be,
ooh, Abigail don't be,
ooh, Abigail don't be long
