Work to Do

[No lyrics]

. . .


Sometimes I don't know if should even talk at all
Words just fall to pieces banging up against the wall
They don't ever come out right now matter how much I try
Then inside I'm screaming cuz I can't seem to find a way
I can say what I feel inside
I don't want to hide the things I need to tell you
I stumble so out in my throat
I guess you'll never know.

If I could I'd plant a seed and make a blossom grow
Lets colors flow around you and maybe they would show you the way
to my world and what I feel inside.
I don't want to hide and the things I need to tell you
I stumble so out in my throat
I guess you'll never know.

What I feel inside
I don't want to hide
The things I need to tell you
I stumble so out in my throat
I'll guess you'll never know

. . .


I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well, your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair
She broke your throne, she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well, baby, I've been here before.
I've seen this room, and I've walked this floor.
I used to live alone before I knew you.
But I've seen your flag on the marble arch,
And love is not a victory march,
It's a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well, there was a time when you'd let me know
What's really going on below,
But now you never show that to me, do you?
But remember when I moved in you,
And the Holy Ghost was moving too,
And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well, maybe there is a God above,
But all that I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you.
It's not a cry that you hear at night,
And it is not somebody who has seen the light
It's a cold and it is a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

. . .


Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
This time I'm gone forever

I should of seen it coming from a mile away
I guess I wasn't counting on a rainy day
Soon as I could swear the sky was falling down
You were out of ever falling head to ground
Get out of town

Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
This time I'm gone forever
I'm lighter than a feather
Goodbye, so long, Fairweather

I'm really like a flower in a hurricane
But sending us a shower wash away my pain
Clouds are blowing over everything is fine
Rainbow on my shoulder in a sweet sunshine
It is all mine

Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
This time I'm gone forever
I'm lighter than a feather
Goodbye, so long, Fairweather

Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
This time I'm gone forever
I'm lighter than a feather
Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
Goodbye, so long, Fairweather
Be gone
Goodbye, so long, Fairweather

New Years Day

[No lyrics]

. . .


Mornin' comes, she wakes up fore it's light
And starts another day in hell
Tryin' to get her makeup right cause this time she can't tell ‚em that she fell
He's sleepin' off another one so she tiptoes around
She don't make a sound
I don't know how she does it

One handed her a coffee cup
One to get the babies in the car
Cross your fingers, crank it up, hope and pray the piece of shit'll start
Singing with the radio so she don't fall apart
It's just a broken heart
I don't know how she does it

Finally into town the old familiar red light shining in her eyes
Rolls the window down and whispers : how you're gonna take back your life
she usually makes a right to work but turns it to the left
I think she might head west

. . .


If the light in your sky fades and darkness falls upon your face
when it seems you've lost your way and you can't take another day
I will calm all your fears
I will dry all your tears
you'll see it doesn't matter near or far
right next door or to the stars
my heart's already where you are

there's no wall that I can't climb
no road that I won't walk to find
where you wander in the cold I'll get to you and take you home
I'll be right by your side just forget space and time
you'll see it doesn't matter near or far
right next door or to the stars
my heart's already where you are

I'll be right by your side just forget time and space
you'll see it doesn't matter near or far
right next door or to the stars
my heart's already where you are
