I'm searching for something that won't change
As pure as the midnight snow on the Jasper rangesInto the everlasting night,
I'll chase the light
Got to keep on moving, gotta take the chance
Cause I'm losing my rhythm with every step of the danceVERSE:
Further and further, until there's strange land
I can't let my shadow determine where I'll standBRIDGE:
And when it shines, it's gonna shine (shine) like a million suns
Rises ignite the fire, glow, coming sweet as golden goods
As thick as thieves, we shall receive, burning bright sin from the king
Shine your light and save my soul
I wish I was with you, holding you tight
I got a one way ticket to a lucid land
With a song on my tongue and a wheel in my hand
Where am I going? Wouldn't you love to know
Where the water runs clean and the clouds run dry
The garden explodes and the air gets you high
Where am I going? Wouldn't you love to know
But if I told you then everyone'd wanna go
No, I can't tell you 'cause everyone'd wanna go
Twenty miles tops from the city's lights
You can settle your heart down in the sunseted nights
Where am I going? Wouldn't you love to know
But if I told you then everyone'd wanna go
No, I can't tell you 'cause everyone'd wanna go
Well, it's the place where I go where they know who I am
And trouble just left, I heard the screen door slam
Where am I going? Wouldn't you love to know
But if I told you then everyone'd wanna go
No, I can't tell you 'cause everyone'd wanna go
Oh, if I told you then everyone'd wanna go
Thought I was living large 'til my car broke down
On the coldest night of the year
Thought I was getting there, but I guess I was wrong
I had snow in my shoes
Hasn't happened yet, maybe sometime soon
And if not today or tomorrow (one of these days)
And if not today or tomorrow
We got so much snow I went blind for a day
And I didn't know who was who
Thought I was getting there, but I guess I was wrong
I had snow in my shoes
Hasn't happened yet, maybe sometime soon
And if not today or tomorrow (one of these days)
And if not today or tomorrow
I was dreaming of palm trees and a well-working car
It was the warmest night of the year
Felt like I was there 'cause I had the warm sun in my hair
And I had sand in my shoes
Hasn't happened yet, maybe sometime soon
And if not today or tomorrow (one of these days)
And if not today or tomorrow (one of these days)
And the green grass is one thing you can borrow (this time of the year)
And if not today or tomorrow
Where does your mind travel to? Can I go there with you?
Are you aware of what's going down around you?
You are spacing out to the songs playing beside your bed
And you get lost in the melodies and the words going on in your head
You are so distant sometimes on an island in your mind
Too far away to find, too far away to find
What do I have to do to bring you back down to me?
So distant sometimes, now so distant from me
You are so distant sometimes on an island in your mind
Too far away to find, too far away to find
So distant sometimes on an island in your mind
Too far away to find, too far away to find
I can't tell you how sorry that I am
That you don't understand my rhythm or my rhyme
And I can't tell you how sorry that I am
But you know how I get sometimes
But don't feel bad for me
'Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears
I can feel the pain slipping away
I can feel the road in my hands
I can feel my heart beating in my chest
And a two-tone half-ton that really understands
Now should I head for the hills
Should I head for the ocean blue
Or just somewhere
That's far away from you
No, don't feel bad for me
'Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears
No, don't feel bad for me
'Cause these feelings disappear
Every time that I'm shifting gears (repeat)
On this lonely highway night
Hello highway, take me home to Lafayette
I gotta get away, let's just leave it at that
It's safe to say that I'm on the way, that I'll never find you now
For the wrong that I done, the wrongs that I done
Goodbye penitentiary, with all due respect to your authority
But they shoulda though twice before putting me in minimum security
It's safe to say that I'm getting away, they'll never catch me now
For the wrongs that I done
Hello countryside, scenery is so wide and so vast
But I can't appreciate you much, you know, I've been driving much too fast
It's safe to say the end is on its way, I can see them coming now
Back home weather's got you down
Looking to move on and skip town
You're looking to get lost to be found
'Cause back home weather's got you down
You say you got somewhere to go
Where the palms grow tall and the air lets you know
Roll the windows down as far as they'll go
So you say you got somewhere to go
Take your time, enjoy the view
Don't let 'em get to you anymore
Let everything slide, go along for the ride
Make sure that you decide where you're going
Foreign car with northern plates
Heading down through the southern states
Find a decent motel with decent rates
In a northern car with foreign plates
In a foreign car with northern plates
Take your time, enjoy the view
Don't let 'em get to you anymore
Let everything slide, go along for the ride
Make sure that you decide where you're going
(repeat)
Tears all over your eyes green
From the favorite movie that you and I just seen
I finally see just what you mean
By the feeling you get when you watch that final scene
Eyes all over your dress blue
And you don't realize that everyone's gazing right at you
I think I might start wandering over your way
But you probably won't take notice anyway
Smiles all over your lips red
And all the things you wish you would have said
It's OK 'cause they still can be read
In the book that you hide under your bed
Stars all over your hair gold
On the roof looking up at the full July moon
Is it OK if I come over soon?
To stare at the full July moon
Is it alright if I come over soon?
To gaze at you gazing at the full July moon
To smile at you smiling at the full July moon
Goodbye girl. Gone to see the world,
Out to see everything but me.
Your letters aint coming that much any more
Your letters aint coming at all.
I've been to Memphis; I've been to Rome,
But because you were here, I came back home.
Now I'm not trying to place any blame
But I came back for you now I'd expect you do the same.
Travellin', travellin' so, so far away
If your comin' home.
You'd better leave now,
You better leave now.
Good-bye girl gone to see the world,
Out to see every thing you choose
Now it's becoming so clear
That your feet are planted deep
In your travellin' shoes
Travellin', travellin' so, so far away
If your comin' home.
You'd better leave now,
Babe, it seems like so long
Since you heard your favorite song playing downtown, playing downtown
And, oh, it seems like awhile
Since the country's been in style, so now I'm downtown, now I'm downtown.
I never really understood why I'm here in the city
You're in them fields, walking around
I've been seeing too much trouble here and not enough you.
I've been standing here for days
Looking for some kinda change, but I've had no luck to speak of
Take a trip out of the heart
Where the trains and troubles start, if you're downtown, if you're downtown
I never really understood why I'm here in the city
You're in them fields, walking around
I've been seeing too much trouble here and not enough of you
I've been seeing too much trouble here and not enough of you
Babe, it seems like so long (Babe, it seems like so long) x4
Time will lock you away
And throw away the key
Never to be seen or heard from again
I was once like you
But you still ain't like me
But you might want to think about
Tryin' to think about being like me
Cuz I'll have the time of my life 'til I'm dead
One dark night walkin' home alone
A strange woman came down to me
Dressed in white and under a halo of golden light
She said 'boy you've got it all wrong you've got to concentrate more on the party and song'
I'll never forget the last thing she said
She said 'have the time of your life 'til you're dead'
Do you think you can be saved
Or is it too late for you?
With everything you have
And everything that you do
Now time will lock you away,
Yeah and throw away the key
But there ain't not a lock that can hold me
Have the time of your life 'til your dead
Oh darlin' I feel your pain
And the summer rain in your eyes
I'm desperately trying to get the blue
Back into your sky
And darlin' I've been dreamin' of you
Have you been praying for me?
As I cast my mind & soul
To the sea
I've got a plan
That will get us through
I've got a plan
I spend my days counting counterfeit
That will slip on through
For me it's all about you
I've got a plan
That will get us through
I've got a plan
Oh darlin' I feel your pain
And the summer rain in your eyes
I'm desperately trying to get the blue
Back into your sky
I've got a plan
That will get us through
I've got a plan
it all began without warning, on a strange winter's morning.
the sky turned red, the vibrations went dead.
with these terrible songs on a rainy day, the pressure just started to fall.
your scene doesnt do anything for me, it doesnt do anything at all.
is the music gone? is it gone for good?
its only six metal strings, on a piece of wood.
and all these things goin on in my head, make it kinda hard to deal.
like seaweed swingin in the ocean blue, for me, its gotta be real.
(chorus)
i dont care anymore, people tell me i should
they're all lookin for hits, id rather lay on the hood...
of an old car, with my girlfriend
and my real friends, until the end
i'll take you on a trip, inside my soul.
there you'll see, the part that somebody stole.
now can you see this picture that im painting for you? its of you that your not used to.
but u refuse to? dont you? you're thinking too hard.
you cant, think too hard.

Looking back, through the chapters of your life
Searching for a storyline
'cause the one you're leading now is doing nothing for you
Say goodbye to your friends and the ones who love you
Moving on
JJ's song has been pushing you along
Gypsy man on a one night stand
Moving to the night far from the lights
On an asphalt path drifting over the white line
Gypsy man nobody knows
Cocaine cowgirl, she's out catching eyes
On the other end of the desert sky
Taking you down to the dark side of town
A dark side of town
Cocaine cowgirl nobody knows
Looking back, through the chapters of your life
Searching for a storyline
'cause any line is a good time for you
Living what the World's been writing for you
Cocaine cowgirl nobody knows
'cause any line is a good time for you
Living what the world has written for you
Gypsy man nobody knows
'cause any line is a good time for you
Living what the world has written for you
You gotta move your mind
You gotta move your mind
If you wanna feel welcome
If you wanna feel welcome
around here
You gotta save your soul
Yeah, you gotta save your soul
If you wanna feel welcome
If you wanna feel welcome around here
You gotta move your mind
Yeah, you gotta move your mind
If you wanna feel welcome
If you wanna feel welcome
Yellow, yellow, bloom on the face
In the key of sea, 10 colors ...high
Echo, echo, sound on, sound on
On the sign of the night
Won’t you take me back home, home
Ride tree with them high ...in the sun
Ride the Babylon down, out on 55 up
And you know there’s something going home
In the 88 am radio
It’s coming on strong, it’s getting you wrong
It’s gonna let it go
[Chorus]
Indio, won’t you take me in?
The sound like old fashion, California sin, whoa
There’s the... I don’t make up with the dice
Watch the shake on,
If I give myself to you,
Well you gotta give yourself to me
And to loose
In the spirits of the deserts, a ride riding in that...slow
It’s just ...my headlights, as if the ruins will get on ...
I was born out on the day the music died
The sun busted open just like some power ship collide
And the speed’s coming on me strong
It’s the only I’m going in, go home
[Chorus]
Indio, won’t you take me in?
The sound like old fashion, California sin, whoa
There’s the... I don’t make up with the dice
Watch the shake on,
If I give myself to you,
Well you gotta give yourself to me
And to loose
[Guitar break]
Run, run, run, you are free now
Run, run, run, you are free
Run, run, run, you are free now
Run, run, run, you are free
It don’t matter cause I got my song
It don’t matter cause I got my song
It don’t matter cause I got my song
It don’t matter cause I got my song
Well you love, getting ...
[Chorus]
Indio, won’t you take me in?
The sound like old fashion, California sin, whoa
There’s the... I don’t make up with the dice
Watch the shake on,
If I give myself to you,
Well you gotta give yourself to me
Through the night 'til the morning
It all came to me
At the edge of the desert
Where the sand hits the sea
Out here on the peer
I'm out here on a search
Where the fishermen reel and the pelicans perch
I'm out on here on a trip
Here on a whim
Into what's going on through the dawn
Out here on the peer
I'm out here to win
Where the rollercoasters roll
And the Ferris wheels spin
The good people
living your life on a whim
Your eyes ain't bright
If your mind is dim
From the east to the west
Can't you feel it in the air
They're gonna save you
So you better, you better save them
The good people
Dull knife, stuck in the night
Turning with the tide every time I close my eyes
Dull knife, stuck in the night
Burning like a light lit held up to my life
Giant star, take up the sky
Beyond the great powers of Indian ocean
Dead south, sleep on the sea
A million acres of blue water cut into my head
Until our time it has come
Find us...in this vicious life we live
Give us grace, give us speed
The ...road, and ...arrest
And it go too much unsaid inside
Off the coast, arrive with the best
Keeping them killer rides close to the vest
...close cigarettes, a 5 strings guitar and a lightning stove
The ... run in the night, fast than a gunshot
Shadowing a new fight
Until our time it has come
Find us...in this vicious life we live
Give us grace, give us speed x 2
[Guitar solo]
Until our time it has come
Find us...in this vicious life we live
Give us grace, give us speed
Give us grace, give us speed
Give us grace, give us speed
Give us grace, give us speed
Counting the 60s hear what I say
drop the bombs on yesterday
can't you see listen your factory
drop the bombs on yesterday
Brothers and sisters you hear what I say
drop the bombs on yesterday
strong with the sounds hear what you say
My heart is broken bad and the circus is in town
I'm out for a walk
Trying to shake these feelings down
When the sky is getting darker over the land
Things are looking better to me
Ever since I've been set free everything ain't so heavy
Well this night is feelin' good
And it's swingin' my mood around
Everyone's out havin' fun all around this town
I can see the drunks staggerin' by
One points to the stars and says to me
"man, ever since I've been set free
everything ain't so heavy"
well my heart is broken bad and the circus is in town
I'm out for a walk
Trying to shake these feelings down
Watchin' the weather take a turn
Feels like it's changin' for me
'cause ever since I've been set free everything ain't so heavy
Ever since I've been set free everything ain't so heavy
Hey, hey mama, there’s a rising wind
Shake your tambourine call in the airstrike!
Hey, hey mama, there’s a rising wind
Shake your tambourine call in the airstrike
Hey, hey mama, there’s a rising wind
Shake your tambourine call in the airstrike!
Look out mama, there’s a rising wind
Shake your tambourine call in the airstrike!
Do me a favour if you got nothing to do
Follow me outside this party don't seem right for you
Your boyfriend's drunk, he's passed out on the ground
So follow me out to where nobody's around
Your heart and mine should really spend some time together
The blood'll be flowing through our veins like a stream in stormy weather
I feel it in my blood and in every one of my veins
From the end of my toes to the very back of my brain
Your boyfriend's drunk, he's passed out on the ground
So follow me out to where nobody's around
Your heart and mine should really spend some time together
The blood'll be flowing through our veins like a stream in stormy weather
You're done with this due and I do believe it's done with you
But if you're leaving now, would you mind if I came along too
'Cause everybody's drunk, they're passed out on the ground
We could go out to where nobody's around
Your heart and mine should really spend some time together
The blood'll be flowing through our veins like a stream in stormy weather
(repeat)
Blood'll be flowing through our veins
Blood'll be flowing through our veins
Blood'll be flowing through our veins like a stream in stormy weather
Travelin' light when the wind is getting heavy
And the thoughts in my mind are growin' weary
I got some money, got my mind
And I got some time
Travelin' light when the wind is blowin' heavy
Oh, it gets wicked here
Such an evil time of year
So cold it brings you tears
Come wintertime
I'll come back for you my dear
When it gets wicked here
Come wintertime
I don't think I wanna be fightin' with you
on a long distance phone call from a highway hotel hall
Cuz I'm losing my money, I'm losin' my mind
Just lost an hour of time
Well I don't think I wanna be fightin' with you
Oh, it gets wicked here
Such an evil time of year
So cold it brings you tears
Come wintertime
I'll come back for you my dear
When it gets wicked here
Come wintertime
I lost my money, lost my mind, lost time
Travelin' live when the snow is fallin' heavy down
Wicked come winter
You know it takes a long, long time
To move across this land
The northern lights in the skies at night
The attention they demand
You know it takes a long, long time
To move across this land
The northern lights in the skies at night Makin' music with my friends
You believe in what nobody else does
In your mind theres no time and a constant buzz
So disregard the master plan
It's a disaster man you better ride it out
I can see it all in your eyes
Your future fades, your minutes are few
When the angels make contact with you
You believe in what nobody else does
And things ain't the way they was
A fool like you is a freak to me
It's unique to me, what you seek to see
I can see it all in your eyes
Your future fades, your minutes are few
When the angels make contact with you
I've seen the future isn't pretty
Killer instinct, love a surprise
Make a stop, build a fire
Hold you breathe, cover your eyes
The tides are turning crimson
Nightfall growing like a cancer
Feeding on your broken body
Isolations not the answer
Listen what the wind says softly
Sound of traffic, smells like paper
Kisses on your worried eyelids
Sleepless nights turn into vapor
Like a dream and as the crow flies
Must reject the pain your trapped in
Give me all your hard earned beauty
Now I'll tell you what will happen
Your day will fade and your thoughts will jade
And you'll wake up in the middle of a dream
Coming up on hard luck, with a moment of silence
And no time to kill, no reason to care
Beware
I can see it all in your eyes
Your future for a dime, anytime
I can see is all in your eyes
Your future for a dime, anytime
I can see it all in your eyes
Your future for a dime, anytime
Your future fades, your minutes are few
Broke the winters back
And split for the Sun
Shot through the night from a frozen gun
With my eyes to the skies
And one foot to the ground
I really gotta go
Away
Its a rough n tumble come down at the break of day
Sitting here staring out across the bay
With that sunrise in your eyes
Theres never really too much to say
But I really gotta go.
Away
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable
And Im up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right
She talks with her hands and shes saying goodbye
Nobodys gonna tell me why
They just say time, time heals all
But I dont believe them
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable
And Im up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right
Now time rolls on religiously, swift and sly
Bullet train full of souls riding through the night
Everyone thinks they can slow it down
I used to be like that before I knew you
There aint nothing as dead as a dead romance
Nothing more alive than the city tonight
Storefront windows reflecting me
Where my steel cut heart can feel the electricity
Look at me now, whose gonna take me there
From this lighting and the thunder and you, the eighth wonder
She talks with her hands and shes saying goodbye
Nobodys gonna tell me why
They just say time, time heals all
But I dont, I dont, I dont believe them
Cause heartbreaks are uncurable
And Im up all night
Stone-faced in New York City
Trying to set things right (repeat)
Look at me now, whose gonna take me there
From this lighting and the thunder and you, the eighth wonder
Well I don't know you but I feel you
You feel it too
Coming at you through the tall grass
My lies come through
Cause then I'm frozen instead of you, and
Watch me laugh, sad injury the first degree
Set yourself free
Take it on faith, my love
Baby just one time,
Picture life from my eyes
Take it on faith, my love
I know you
All my leafs they fall for you
You fall in too
Cause I’m sinkin’ with the northern sun
I don't know you but I feel you
You feel it too
Set yourself free
Take it on faith, my love
Baby just one time,
Picture life from my eyes
Take it on faith, my love
I know you
I never knew her
Have a little faith
Give it now
You meant forever, die
Kill my mind, so have a lil' faith
Show a little love,
Give a little heart
Take it on faith, my love
Baby just one time,
Picture life from my eyes
Just one time
Picture life from my eyes
Yeah
Take it on faith, my love
Baby just one time,
Picture life from my eyes
Yeah
Take it on faith, my love
Take it on faith, my love
Take it on faith, my love
Long live the powers now, that bring down the rays,
Never let your days go for free.
You've got nerves swerving everywhere, whatcha' gonna do?
The ocean aint blue cause' of you.
You're an idiot man. You got no soul, I've got no faith in you. I can't believe some fall for what you do. Stealing smiles from everyone's faces, tell me just what's your deal? I can't imagine how you must feel.
The sun will come back again tomorrow,
If you leave and take your sorrow,
Stand down at sun down, get yourself gone,
From now on.
Hey there pretty, desertfoot companion,
When are you coming home?
It's been 300 nights,
And I'm mad.
It aint right, It aint right,
Your frontline days are done.
It's been 300 nights,
And I'm sad.
The sun will come back tomorrow,
We don't need all your sorrow,
Stand down at sundown, get yourself gone,
She grew up on St. George's Lane
She drove slow and had a pretty fast backhand
She always hated it when it rained
It started out on St. George's Lane
Her mother drove a station wagon
It smelled like cigarettes and sand
Until we got it all cracked up on five corners
We don't drive too much anymore
Blue days & black nights
Back in a time when everything was right
Blue days & black nights
I took a bus down from Soul Harbour
Just to see the trophies she had one
Her father said she was gonna go pro
So don't you get too close to her
No, don't you get too close to her
Blue days & black nights
Back in a time when everything was right
Blue days & black nights
(Back in a time)
She grew up on St. George's Lane
She drove slow and had a really fast backhand
She didn't like the look of the clouds above
I ended up zero love
Come on, light up the sunset with my heart
Come find me and save me, meet the stars
All I wanted was a memory
Come pull some diamonds from these saints attack
I mean, come on, let's face it..
Let's paint this town red with purpose
All I want is a good time,
But I don't have fun if I ain't with you
Under the stars, and stars are shining
Will I feel love less, but my heart is still on!
Sing one for the soldiers that defend my heart
Cause she defeats some... with precision sharp
All I want was my freedom,
but I don't free if I ain't with you
Under the stars, and stars are shining
Will I feel love less, but my heart is still on!
Burn up my ticket, ashes to the room
Cut my thighs open, slash them with your...
All I want was the sense and place
That I don't feel hurt if I ain't with you
Under the stars, and stars are shining
Will I feel love less, but my heart is still on!
Under the stars, and stars are shining
Will I feel love less, much to love, oh, oh
Oh, what's... how much do you love?
It's time, this time, how much do you love?
Yeah, yeah!
It came comin' from far away
Riding along plains,
Down through the rivers and streams
To visit me in a dream
I left my life behind
Buried it in the sand
Maybe I'll get back someday and dig it up again
Lost souls stay gone for good
To keep a satisfied mind
I saw it comin' from far away
It was fallin' down with the rain
Movin' from the rivers and streams
Shot it right into the vein
I left my life behind
I buried it in the sand
Maybe I'll get back someday and dig it up again
Maybe I'll get back someday and dig it up again
And dig it up again
Lost souls stay lost for good
Keep your satisfied mind
Disappear into the night
How does it feel
To say goodbye
To all the times we had before
Guess it don't matter
It don't matter anymore
If you're ever in Eastern Passage
You'd better not come knockin' on my door
Cuz it don't matter
It don't matter anymore
Time, lord give me some time
To rid my head of these things I can't ignore
Like your fists poundin' on my door
All I want some piece of mind to help me get through
Oh, it don't matter,
This pavement feels cold on my face
And my bones have seen better days
Be a friend, pick me up off the ground
Nice and easy, oooh
I got a scar, you can see it from afar
Like cigarette burns on the top of my guitar
If you wish me luck, don't tell me to break a leg
I coulda been walking on a peg
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break
I got a girl, she got lots of style
You can see every tooth in her mouth when she smiles
She's prettier than you, and you, and you
Yeah, she's prettier than you
I got a dream, I hope that it comes true
And if it don't, don't know what I'm gonna do
I got a dream, I got a dream
And at the end of the day I will return to the city of lakes
Where the real people roam close to where all the real waves break
I lost a friend here in this past year
I miss his guitar playing in my ear
Be a friend, take away all my fears
Takin' it easy with a friend of mine
Down by the diamond talkin' 'bout the shifty ways of time
Says "You can get free, unless you make your move."
And I said "Ain't that the truth."
So I cut a million skylines, scars and borderlines, just tryin' to find the
Then it put somewhere around Sante Fe
When some late night can’t reach the preacher told me son
Listen to me, the devil can’t get you cause he ain’t got proof
And I said "Ain't that the truth."
So take me down that open road, light on my fire,
Well sing me that song from yesteryear
When we were all right
Cause it's deep in the history
Shoulder to shoulder we will stand over the grave
Watchin' the (notsure) lower him on down
Years ago man, he should have called his truce
He said "Ain't that the truth."
So take me down that open road, light up a fire High
Sing me that song from yesteryear
When we were all right
Cause it's deep in the history
Taking it easy with a friend of mine
Down at the dimond talkin' 'bout the shifty ways of time
You can't get free, unless you make your move...never get free
And he said "Ain't that the truth:"
So take me down that open road, light up a fire High
Sing me that song from yesteryear
Back when we were all right
Cause it's deep in the history
And he said "Ain't that the truth:"
And I said "Ain't that the truth."
And I said "Ain't that the truth."
Counting the 60s hear what I say
drop the bombs on yesterday
can't you see listen your factory
drop the bombs on yesterday
Brothers and sisters you hear what I say
drop the bombs on yesterday
strong with the sounds hear what you say
I know when I first met you, I would wait on your every word
I've slowly let the silence in, and put you second to my world
Sorry without the actions, it's just an empty word
I know you don't need no diamond ring
You need a simple thing, a simple thing
More Our Time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, just you and me together
More our time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, we need some, yeah
I know you'll never say a word, but I can see it in your eyes
I know that you still love me babe, but your hearts been compromised
Let me be what I used to be, let me be your King
I know you don't need no diamond ring
You need a simple thing, a simple thing
More Our Time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, just you and me together
More our time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, we need some, yeah
We need some our time, we need, we need, we need, we need
Just you and me together
We need some our time, we need, we need, we need, we need
Just you and me together
So come, come baby won't you come undone, let my love undress your soul
I know I've not been there for you, I know, I know, I know
Sorry yes I'm sorry, but sorry does get old
I know you don't need no diamond ring
You need a simple thing, a simple thing
More Our Time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, just you and me together
More our time, just you and me, Our Time
We need some, we need some, yeah
We need some our time, we need, we need, we need, we need
Just you and me together
We need some our time, we need, we need, we need, we need
Just you and me together
Together forever, together forever
Oh I'm so sorry baby, I'm so sorry baby
Don’t say too much tonight
I’m still your friend after we fight
Try to remember the love we came from
And where our hearts still want to go
I’m not ashamed to say I’m scared
Don’t think you know I’m suffering
Can’t we make love and reconnect (reconnect yeah)
CHORUS
So if we’re lost
Let’s just find our way
We’re not footprints that wash away
I can’t imagine not saying the words
Darling good morning
If we’re lost
Let’s just find our way
My arms can be a familiar place
I can’t stand here and wonder
Stand here and wonder
Where I stand
Just stop and take a breath
It’s time to lay the past to rest
I’m tired of you looking through me and not into me
my love
You always say I hold you tight
If I let go (tell me) would you fight
Together we’re music
Why would we ever dance alone?
CHORUS
So if we’re lost
Let’s just find our way
We’re not footprints that wash away
I can’t imagine not saying the words
Darling good morning
If we’re lost
Let’s just find our way
My arms can be a familiar place
I can’t stand here and wonder
Stand here and wonder
Where I stand
Oh I’m not ready to lose her .. no
If we’re lost
Let’s just find our way
(Oh) My arms should be a familiar place (My arms be your home)
I can’t stand here and wonder (no baby)
Don’t make me stand here and wonder where I stand
I’m not ready (rpt x 2) to lose her
I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhymes
I've acted out my life on stages
With ten thousand people watching
We're alone now and I'm singing this song to you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be, yeah
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Baby can't you see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song to you
You taught me precious secrets of a true love withholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for my life and you’re a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
Oh, we were alone and I was singing this song to you
I love you in a place when there's no space or time
I love you for my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
And we were alone and I was singing this song to you
I'm not gonna cry this Sunday morning
I was hoping if the sky falls in
It would still let me stand
One little pill, big dreams dissolving
It's hard to hold them
I hit the wall so hard
I took the skin off my hands (took the skin off my hands)
It's not who I am, just glad to be still
CHORUS
I really see when I close my eyes
Life will be my motorbike
I'll ride it into the sunset
Let the wind blow dust from me
My journey as it comes
I see fit, I do not run
I'll face it
Look it in the eyes until it bows to me
Fears gonna bow to me
Fears gonna bow to me (yeah)
I'm not gonna share my life with torment
It must be different
And if the sun burns out
I will still warm my hands
A dream will light the furnace
When they say it's hopeless
It's only hopeless
when someone cannot dream (oh yeah)
(burn inside of me we can be still)
CHORUS
I really see when I close my eyes
Life will be my motorbike
I'll ride it into the sunset
Let the wind blow dust from me
My journey as it comes
I see fit, I do not run
I'll face it
Look it in the eyes until it bows to me
Fears gonna bow to me
Fears gonna bow to me (yeah)
Fears gonna bow to me (woo- yeah)
I lived, I've died
I've laughed and cried
I've touched the world
I've crashed and burned
Fucking bitch who gives a shit
I've lost it all and made it back
If pride is light can fade to black
I feel my blood coming back
CHORUS
(Oh)I really see when I close my eyes
Life will be my motorbike (ride it)
I'll ride it into the sunset
My journey as it comes
I see fit I'll never run
I'll face it
Look it in the eyes until it bows
I can see when I close my eyes
Life will be my motorbike (life will be my motorbike gonna ride it)
Into the sunset (into the sunset oh)
Look it in the eyes until it bows to me (yeah)
Fears gonna bow to me (yeah)
Fears gonna bow to me (fears gonna bow to me oh)
Fear's gonna bow to me (all my fears gonna bow gonna bow to me)
Fear's gonna bow to me (REPEAT x 4)
On the beat with cherry blossom streets
Don’t know where to go but I’m going somewhere
I’m feeling high, it’s getting hard to hide
Inhibitions, trying to not to care
I can’t live in fear
It’s left right for the end
Now you’re not here
I guess I’m moving on (yeah)
I can breathe again (yeah)
CHORUS
Its feeling good to forget all the loving words you said
I can’t remember how you smiled or the places that we went
You always said it would never end
Today’s the day I start again
It feels so good (yeah)
It feels so good
To forget the day we met
Feel the ground all these city sounds
so fill my heart right back at ya
so get out of bed it will help you mend
that broken heart and bones you fractured
I found what I wanted when I wasn’t looking
I almost lost it, nearly a man forgotten
I can breathe again ( Yeah Yeah )
CHORUS
Its feeling good to forget all the loving words you said
I can’t remember how you smiled or the places that we went
You always said it would never end
Today’s the day I start again
It feels so good (it feels good) (oh oh)
It‘s feeling good to forget
All the loving words you said
I can’t remember how you smiled or the places that we went
(oh memories)
You always said it would never end
Today’s the day I start again (start again)
It feels so good (feels so good yeah)
It’s taken so long, but finally I’m feeling a little bit better (oh)
(ah-ah-ah, -oh oh-oh-oh-oh...)
(ah-ah-ah, -oh oh-oh-oh-oh...)
I won’t surrender, no I won’t surrender, no I won’t surrender to my baby
Never know just when life changes suddenly
Even when you're down
You can start again looking out honestly
You can turn it around
I saw your face and the sky opened up
You smiled at me
You could be the one to bring back the sun
You could be the one who makes me feel whole again
Somewhere in my life I lost my way
Some might say this could be my lucky day
It could be lucky day
The empty glass of wine
Thinking about lonely time
Ain't not here any more
You really find who I am
Understand what I've been thru before
I saw in you something beautiful and pure
And you kissed me
You could be the one to bring back the sun
You could be the one who makes me feel whole again
Somewhere in my life I lost my way
Some might say this could be my lucky day
I will find a way
To find a rose in this winter garden
Even when those devils play with my mind
I'm the one that knows I will find
My Winter Rose, my Winter Rose
Do, do do, do you've gotta use your soul to find it
Kings have lost their way
Through lands of old that were once enchanted
I feel strong today
Smooth like feline, I'm the one that knows I will find
My Winter Rose, my Winter Rose, my Winter Rose, my Winter Rose
Do, do do, do you've gotta use your soul to find it
Perfection is patient, perfection is patient
I feel strong today
Smooth like feline, I'm the one that knows, I will find
My Winter Rose, my Winter Rose
My body's young, but my mind is old
My life is like a story that needs to be told
I feel like a thousand birds locked up in a cage
Let me spread my wings
Let me be saved from these
Decisions naivety made
Part of me wants me to take the blame
If you decide who can win or lose
No more living in this house of accused
Oh oh oh living in the house of accused
I see a man standing on a hill
Just like a general he is standing still
And he looks so innocent, so easy to trust
Little did I know, he had blood on his cuffs, from
Battles he will always win
Emotions are just games to him
I take the blame for lighting the fuse
No more living in this house of accused
Oh oh oh living in the house of accused
Hypnotised by so many words
Stolen heart from a wounded bird
I will fly to a place where dreams are used
Far away from this house of accused
As the night moves in, love takes on new meaning
If you were here, you would know what I mean to say
Circumstance, leaves me only waiting
For the chance, I only want to love you more
Can't you understand it, girl you know how much I care
It's not the way I planned it.
If you could only know my feelings you would know how much I do believe.
If you were with now etc...
As the lights go out, I can not pretend - this beds to big all for me to be
In alone
Can't you understand it
Girl you know how much I care
It's not the way I planned it
If you could only know my feelings you would know how much I do believe
If you were with me now etc..
Every night alone I just wait here anticipating
For the day I won't feel this way baby please don't keep me waiting, come to
I wish you were I wish you were my baby (wish you were with me now)
I wish you were my lady, I wish I was your man, let my body, let your body
Pain can create energies like hate
Just like a grain of sand, becomes a pearl
Pain, pain can hide the love we keep inside
Just like a mountain can hide a thousand worlds
As a tear rolls down my face
Love takes it's place
And as I cry, another demon says goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye another demon says goodbye etc.
Pain can mean revenge
When it's better to make amends
Just like the water can calm a fire
Pain can decide, whether we live or die
Just like a gun that is ready to fire
As a tear rolls down my face
Love takes it's place
And as I cry, another demon says goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, another demon says goodbye etc.
Groove on, extend your dreams, revenge is what
Illness needs
Groove on, and feel the soul
Take your hate, revenge your fears and
Let it go
Rule the world, touch the sun
Put a needle through the moon and watch it bleed
Break the walls, scratch the floors
Take the gold and make it yours
Cos' you're a million miles from the sand that plays
Time's on your and I must say
You can touch the highest star, if you believe
Then you'll go far
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Read the sky, calm the seas
Gotta find your island and plant that seed
Kick the door, open wide, take the glass
And drink the wine
Unanswered questions, leave no secret desire
And for the burning bridges, leave no fire
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Give water to the desert, give salt unto the sea
Lay scent upon a flower, stop the revolution inside of me
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Give water to the desert, give salt unto the sea
Lay scent upon a flower, that's how easy it could be
If I could believe, gotta believe
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
You can do it for yourself
Golden fields, singing trees, conducted by
The wind and breeze
You can have all your dreams, but you've got to believe
But you've gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe
Gotta believe, gotta believe, yes
Oh the writing on the wall
It reminds him of the things that once were
The diamonds, oh the diamonds on her hands
Just one could change his life
And make him a brand new man
Can't you be blind for a minute
So he can take the money that you hand him
Inside, oh he needs it
But his heart's so full of pride
But his heart's so full of pride
And won't allow it
Can't you be blind
Can't you be blind
Even his demons have run away
They're deformed by the pain of that evening rain
His riches that he holds
Mean more and more to him
As his life unfolds
Can't you be blind
Tonight he will fight with his pride
Stony ground catch the diamonds that fall from his eyes
It's just a darker side of truth
A translucent work of art
Are you going to shoot the arrow straight through his heart?
To acknowledge makes him bleed
Cut by his own pride
As he stands alone
Have you ever created a place that feels safe to hide
It may not be a room with four walls, just a
Place you've created in the mind
A kind of heaven a kind of hell where we can kiss and tell
I close my eyes and listen
I'd love to get lost in a dream, but I know the
Door in which I came
When I'm sleeping, I get healing
Thinking of the colour blue
When I'm sleeping, I slow down my breathing
Living in dreams, dreams that come true
Thinking of the colour blue
Thinking of the colour blue yes
Sometimes it's good to think aloud, and say to you
See the funny faces up in the clouds
A place to get crazy, where life gets so lazy
There's no no, there's no yes, but everything is maybe
Oh, I'd love to get lost in a dream, wash my fears
In nature's streams
When I'm sleeping, I get healing
Thinking of the colour blue
When I'm sleeping, I slow down my breathing
Living in dreams, dreams that come true
Thinking of the colour blue
Thinking of the colour blue yes
I get healing etc.
I'd love etc.
When I'm sleeping, I get healing
Thinking of the colour blue
When I'm sleeping, I slow down my breathing
Living in dreams, dreams that come true
Thinking of the colour blue
From behind the door, I feel a breeze
A scent of living, that was meant to please me
From behind the door I hear a whisper as
Soft as a picture, carved from water
As I slide the iron plate below the handle
A shaft of light hits me like a million candles
I see the forest, a ballroom, I see an empty street
Like a thousand puzzles ready to complete
I see every colour and colours that aren't invented
I see golden medals that are yet to be presented
For the only time I get pleasure from torment
I cannot touch, I can only see
But the pure desire, to touch the living scent
But to open up the door, I need
I need the key etc.
On statuette, what are you defending
Your marble smile, seems kinda condescending
Don't try the patience of an impatient man
If you can't fight, don't fight a man that can
I see every colour and colours that aren't invented
I see golden medals that are yet to be presented
For the only time I get pleasure from torment
I cannot touch, I can only see
But the pure desire, to touch this living scent
But to open up the door, I need
I need the key etc.
Pure desire to touch the living scent etc.
I’m driving thinking about things to take my mind off of other things
Feels good hiding in this cocoon will fill my room with wheels
I’m watching her fixing her lipstick, it makes me wonder how she tastes
I know it’s very voyeuristic but my rearview mirror entertains me
We’re all kings of different things, this life just makes me smile
I’m stuck in never ending traffic lights: don’t care if they take their
time
Relax with you time; Relax with you time
The music’s turned up so loud that I can’t even hear the phone
It so much more sophisticated then saying can’t you leave me alone
I love this beautiful vacuum with air coming in and out
This rides almost transcendental hey babe, thanks for helping me out
We’re all kings of different things, this life just makes me smile
I’m stuck in never ending traffic lights: don’t care if they take their
time
Relax with you time; Relax with you time
We’re all kings of different things; life just makes me smile
I’m stuck in never ending traffic lights: don’t care if they take their
time
We’re all kings of different things; this life just makes me smile
I’m stuck in never ending traffic lights: don’t care if they take their
time
Relax with you time; Relax with you time
Relax with you time; Relax with you time
Strangers that care, a state of grace and cleaner air
To start these are three things I don’t ever want to be without
And hate, nameless graves, the same mistakes, one hungry face
More things that this world just doesn’t need
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, want, want, want, want, to be free
And hope for, one love, one life
Push the strong, hold the weak, I always love freedom of speech
These are just things that should just be
The truth be told, lack of soul, the hand of Maradona’s Goal
Is nothing, but it still glows
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, want, want,
Yeah I want, want, want, to be free
And hope for, one love, one life
I think it’s cool to be kind, say good morning please and good night
Cause my space is your space and your space is mine
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, (to, to, to) to be free, and hope for, one life one love
Yeah I want, want, want,
Yeah I want, want, want, to be free
And hope for, one love, one life
One love, one life, freedom for this beautiful world that were living in
One love, one life, and some love for this beautiful world that we’re
living in
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
Peace for the World, we need peace for the World
