A song built on two versions of the same musical figure — one quiet and one rocking — that alternate through the song. The narrator wants what he can't have, knows it, and the arrangement enacts the...

A lullaby-like ballad that follows one woman's walks to the shore where the waves do what words cannot. It is gentle, patient, and a little heartbreaking.

A blues-rock song that builds from a quiet minor verse to a fuller declaration. The melody climbs and doesn't fully resolve.
