Say You Don't Love Me
04:54

I dream of things I'll never do
All things in time will come to you
My patience is sure to lie to me
So anxious to know my enemy
And always my heart just sings along
Well, I could be wrong now
Just say you don't love me
Roll with this wave
between love and hate
Well, a heart could save you
Just say you don't love me
All strangers seem so beautiful
I've learned to fear this miracle
All my distance leads me back to one
As all resistance leads to everyone
We always find each other
She loves me, she loves me not
We'll become one another
And if she loves me...

Along The Way

Along the way
I just might stop for a holiday
Where all my family and friends will be
and there ain't no reason to cry
Here in the light
the flash of a memory caught my eye
of all that was lost when the world was mine
And should there be no reason why
Can be such a lonely life
Into the stars
out past the moonlight
beyond the sun
Into the universe I'll become
There ain't no reason to cry
Back in my life
there won't be anything I won't try
Love will turn everything into light
and should there be no reason why
Can be such a lonely life
And all that is now
and all that I thought of before I knew
That everything becomes a part of you
And should there be no reason why
Along the way

One Sunday
04:28
|
|||
|
I'm staring straight ahead
with my eyes shut tight
I see the blood red
I feel the warmth of the sunlight
I'm hiding in my thoughts
No one would ever know
I'm hiding in my heart
I can't let go
It takes me back to a day
The minds pictures never fade
Takes me back to the way it used to be baby
To one Sunday
in 1980
My mind was jumping ahead
to 2010
I swore one day
I'd be through waiting
As sure as I'm alive
I'll be waiting again
I was the smartest man alive
with my mouth shut tight
And every word you said
helped to prove me right
I was hiding in my thoughts
No one would ever know
Was hiding in my heart
I can't let go

The N & The R
03:45

Everyone else has what I want
There's always something new
All I want is time to be alone
and time to be with...
And to roll like that train down the line
Hope it's somewhere new this time
If I had the heart to tell her I know
But this train won't bring me home
And now I know this to be everyone
Everyone and me
And all I want is
for you to come along
to somewhere new with me
And to roll like that train down the line
Hope it's somewhere new this time
If I had the heart to tell her I know
But this train won't bring me home

Wouldn't Be ME
04:26

You say it's tomorrow
It's going your way
Your will and your progress
will be one and the same
I just might meet you there
Along the way
You're packing tomorrow
You're leaving today
What if you found in your life
all your dreams had come true
It wouldn't be me
It wouldn't be you
I know your story
I felt the same
You need it tomorrow
You need it today
I just might meet you there
Along the way
You're leaving tomorrow
You just got here today
What if you found in your life
all your dreams had come true
It wouldn't be me
It wouldn't be you
All of my soul is caught up in it somehow
And found in the sunrise is lost in the sundown
And everything easy is always a letdown

Think Again
04:02
|
|||
|
The gold digging's over
there's nothing in the ground that wasn't here before
It's just we're tired of looking for it
Cause now we're older
than all the things we grew up thinking couldn't end
I guess it's time to think again
There's not enough time in my watch today
Was life meant to wind up and tick away?
I long for the dreams that will leave no scars
When life only burns those who go too far
And all that is changing
and all the things it's hard to see the difference in
In a world that's looking for it
And all the danger
in all the things we thought we learned our lessons in
I guess it's time to think again

This Time
03:16
|

Somewhere...
the perfect life
Well, is it yours?
It sure ain't mine
And had I known
it would come to this
I wouldn't change a thing
I'd leave it like this
If I ever turn around
and ask myself the reason why
If I could change forever
This time
All along
There's been this place
And all I've lost
The bitter taste
And had I known
It would come to this
I wouldn't change a thing
I'd leave it like this
And if I ever turn around
and ask myself the reason why
If I could change forever
This time

Higher than the Sun

Such a young man for a place like this
Well, come on in boy, see what it is
you think you missed
This place is older than your life will be long
And everybody here knows what it is
to not belong
This is where I've always been
Everything comes back again
So tell us what has brought you here
Could it be that higher than the Sun
That is where the God you made will come from
And only if you do the things we say
will you ever buy your way to heaven
It was more than one thing
when it came to this
You think it was your choice
but it's not a choice if you can't resist
And now you've got your rules
for the bad from good
Here you help someone, because it's in your heart and you know you should
This is where I've always been
Everything comes back again
So tell us what has brought you here
Could it be that higher than the Sun
That is where the God you made will come from
And only if you do the things we say
will you ever buy your way to heaven
Now that you're here don't be afraid
You can think of all the people
that have probably felt this way
Within your conscience stands a fool
If there is a God why should it help you

In This Moment
04:18
|

|
I should have known
that I'd be here again
Up here waiting for this plane to fall
It's not that I'm afraid
of how high I am
But I'm afraid of how fast
I'm gonna fall
When there's nothing left to lose
to lose it all
I've learned enough to know how naive I am
I'm smart enough to see
the things I want to see
It's not that I'm afraid
of how wrong I am
But I'm afraid of how right she's gonna be
when it all comes down here in front of me
I've been waiting
for this life to change
But I've lost my way
In this moment
I guess I should have
seen it there in front of me
Now I'll know it
if and when it comes again
It's not that I'm afraid
of who I want to be
But I'm afraid of all that I could have been
There's nothing worse than starting over again

Something’s the same
And some things don’t change
There’s always love
There’s always hate
There’s always my choice
It's a feeling I know
I know it's just a memory
of a song I used to know
from a place I used to be
Had I known it then
that love was just a mystery
To stop the fool I must have been
To try and change what was to be
Now here I am, another life before me
Now here I am, there must be a lesson for me
In this cold hidden place
I sense the spirit of a man
Whose life became a hiding place
Whose life became where mine began
In this old picture show
with every one I've left behind
It's just a part of letting go
It's just a part of love this time
Now here I am, another life before me
Now here I am, there must be a lesson for me
Turning like the wind always back on myself
All I've ever known is the broken heart
of someone else
Back into the world of an empty man
Turning like the wind to try and love again

Movie In My Mind
02:36
|
|||
|
I'm going to leave this life behind
Walk out of this desert sun
Starring in this movie in my mind
I want to be someone
Horses are known to throw a man
And you'll remember when you're done
But you got to get back on again
Cuz' that horse is just like anyone
And all I ever want from this
is half of what I thought it would be
Well tell me is it something that I missed Or is it all what will be will be
This life is known to throw a man
And you'll remember when you're done
But you got to get back on again
Cause this life is just like anyone
I want to be someone

Somewhere Somehow
06:37
|

I guess I could be anyone
All of my hopes, and all I have yet to come
I never would have thought it would turn out this way
All of my reasons might not have been the same
Maybe I'll head out to that ocean line, live in Hollywood
Where dreams are dreams, and a million to one chance could be half as good
Where all that can happen in one day can turn your life around
Where all of your dreams of yesterday are happening right now
Somewhere somehow
Hey man why aren't you on the radio?
There ain't no reason, I got a friend who knows
He said he knows someone who can help you out
Well, don't you know someone, everybody knows someone now
Maybe I'll head out to that iron city, like I said I would
Where life is hard and they've heard it all, man you better be good
Where all that can happen in one day can turn your life around
Where all of your dreams of yesterday are happening right now
Somewhere somehow
In some unknown place anonymous
Hoping you'll find me, hoping you might notice
that there was a reason I was standing here
Now all of my reasons, now they're just souvenirs
Maybe I'll head out down that highway line, where we broke down once and leave the keys and the car behind and say we've had enough
Where all that can happen in one day can turn your life around
Where all of your dreams of yesterday are happening right now
Somewhere somehow
Always my heart soars above
