She Belonged To Me (iTunes bonus track)
. . .


We've been waiting,
anticipating your arrival.
Turn the light on,
give us road to ride on
help ensure survival
now there's a new day,
sing with us a new way
or be left behind.
You say, someday
we'll know where to go,
but we don't know
I'm always the last one,
never ready for the fast ones,
well it's time to change
so we make our plans,
set our sites on a new land
one that's kind of strange
you say, someday
we'll know where to go but we don't know
you say, someday
we'll know where to go but we don't know
I'm always the last one
never ready for the fast ones,
well it's time to change
so we make our plans,
set our sites on a new land
one that's kind of strange.

I'll wait for something under a streetlight
It won't be long
Because it's dark it's cold
It's one of those nights where
There's something out there
Keeps me alive

But I don't know where to go
So I think I'll sit and stay here a while
Till I figure it out

So let the wind blow us
To wherever it says
We are supposed to go

When you want something but can't name it
It's under a streetlight
It's something you've never seen before
Open the door
It's something you've always been afraid of
It's under a streetlight
And now all you want is more

But I don't know where to go
So I think I'll sit and stay here a while
Till I figure it out

So let the wind blow us
To wherever it says
We are supposed to go
Let the wind blow us
To wherever it says
We are supposed to go

I don't mind the wait it's fine
As long as you know
It's the wait that could be the something

I don't know where to go
So I think I'll sit and stay here a while
Till I figure it out

So let the wind blow us
To wherever it says
We are supposed to go
So let the wind blow us
To wherever it says
We are supposed to go
We are supposed to go

Here We Go

[No lyrics]

. . .


Say, we'll run away, when things get better, better than today
Blind.....leading blind....never knowing, what we find

Where are we going, who are we now?
Let's decide.

This time you've got to make up your mind,
This life you're living.
This time you've got to make up your mind,
This life's worth living.

Get up, we've got a way's to go......

We......are only getting better
Where we were, that doesn't matter

Lately, everything is hazy, but I know what's true
Lately, everyone seems crazy, but I believe in you

Sun, shines in the eyes, of those who know how to leave the past behind.

This time you've got to make up your mind,
This life you're living.
This time you've got to make up your mind,
This life's worth living

Get up, we've got a way's to go......

We......are only getting better
Where we were that doesn't matter

Lately, everything seems hazy, but I know what's true
Lately, everyone seems crazy, but I believe in you!

This time you've got to make up your mind,
This life's worth living

Get up, we've got a way's to go......

We......are only getting better
Where we were that doesn't matter

Lately, everything seems hazy, but I know what's true
Lately, everyone seems crazy, but I believe in you!

See a mountain, see an ocean, see the years that bring
Rock and tide close together
Settle down I said to myself, things that come with time
Will always be better
Everyone gets what they want too fast, these days
No one knows the way to make things last
Still I say, Hey Baby, I'm through waiting
‘Cause I need you now I'll show you how
Can you take my hand and save me, C'mon save me

Now the moon is in the right place after years of
spinning ‘round the sun, so I'm done with
all the times I strained to find a rhyme left me blind
and busted
Everyone gets what they want too fast, these days
No one knows the way to make things last
Still I say, Hey Baby, I'm through waiting
‘Cause I need you now I'll show you how
You can take my hand and save me, C'mon save me

. . .


Baby you, you got what I need
Baby you, you got my sunshine
Baby you, you got what I need
Baby you, you got my sunshine

When I see you it'™s a beautiful world
But when you'™re gone, I want you in my arms
I'™m telling you the last time

Baby you, you got what I need
Baby you, you got my sunshine

Every night I notice you'™re all alone
Wonder you might
Let me love you I'™m on fire
Can'™t you feel my desire
I want to take you higher

It'™s a simplest thing,
Always so hard to see
I want to be
The one and only making you feel love
Oh darling I need love
It'™s all I can dream of

Baby you, you got what I need
Baby you, you got my sunshine
Baby you, you got what I need
Baby you, you got my sunshine

You got my sunshine

. . .


Been stoned, been smoked
Been drunk, been bedded now
We got nowhere to go
We got nowhere else to go
All this time, all we wanna know
Is where are we headed but
We got nowhere to go
We got nowhere else to go

You see, we can be free
If we live in our heads
So let's say let it be
And I won't get left by the wayside
I said I'm gonna turn a blind eye
How you see me
They say that's the key
Oh whoa, yeah
That's how I, that's how I wish I could be

But I need, but I want
So I get something better but
I got a ways to go
I got a ways to go
All this time I've been following life
To the letter, but
That ain't the way to go
That ain't the way to go

You see, we can be free
If we live in our heads
So let's say let it be
And I won't get left by the wayside
I said I'm gonna turn a blind eye
How you see me
They say that's the key
Oh whoa, yeah
That's how I, that's how I wish I could be

But I need, but I want
So I'll get something better but
I got a ways to go
I got a ways to go

You see, we can be free
If we live in our heads
So let's say let it be
And I won't get left by the wayside
I said I'm gonna turn a blind eye
How you see me
They say that's the key
Oh whoa, yeah
That's how I, that's how I wish I could be

. . .


When I am weary and tired
When I am far from home
Think of you in the rain and I kiss you
I can't build you a castle
I can't buy you a ring
I can't see you tonight
So I miss you

Now it's raining, think I'll go inside
Somebody stole my suitcase
Filled with pictures of you
So I forget what your face looked like
When we were just twenty
And it's raining
I think I'll go inside

And I felt this way before
Of walking out your front door
I am a sea without a shore
And its raining
It's really raining
I think I'll go inside

When I miss the sunshine
All I got are clouds
It's your bed I see near the fire
Maybe if you've got room, I can come and see you
Make your favorite tea
And when we tire
Listen to the rain fall
I think I'll go inside

Somebody stole my suitcase
Filled with pictures of you
So I forget what your face looked like
When we were just twenty
And it's raining
I think I'll go inside

I felt this way before
Of walking out your front door
I am a sea without a shore
And it's raining
It's really raining
I think I'll go inside

Ya, it's raining
Baby, it's raining
I think I'll go inside

. . .


The bus is here 'til 3
So we got an hour to see,
The ones tonight,
The ones with the light,
That keeps shining,
She makes her mark; it's clear,
Checks herself, feeds the fear
Of the one tonight, the one with the light
That keep shining,

Johnny puts the whiskey on the table,
Calling out to everyone who's able.

And we will never change,
The way we are here,
I like that we are kinda strange,
So won't you stay near?

The taxi's is filled with 5,
He thanks the world he's alive,
Alive tonight, the beauty is honestly (?),
Blinding, so take a look around, almost lost
We've finally found the ones tonight,
The ones with the light that keep shining,

Johnny puts the whiskey on the table,
Calling out to anyone who's able.

And we will never change,
The way we are here,
I like that we are kinda strange,
So won't you stay near?

Johnny puts the whiskey on the table,
Calling out to everyone who's able.

We will never change,
The way we are here,
I like that we are strange,
So won't you stay near?

You're Not As Young

[No lyrics]

. . .


What if I let myself fall
What if the stars don't agree
Would the world stop, or would it spin 'round without us
Would it spin around you without me

Well our heroes have all been traded in
Can't think of what they used to be
So we look round and pray for salvation
While they search for a light out at sea

So we take one leap for the bottom, and I
Pray your hope's not forgotten
And it's too much to say
I need you this way
But tomorrow, you're already gone
And I can't move on

I talk to you in my mind while I lie down,
I wish you could hear all the words you'd said without knowing
They've traveled the world in my ears

As I take one leap for the bottom, and I
Pray that your hope's not forgotten
And it's too much too say
I need you this way
For tomorrow, you're already gone
And I have to move on

And I've never known of a world where
Someone like me could fall down
To only be caught don't know how, you turned on the light and now
I can see

So I take one leap for the bottom, and I
Know your hope's long forgotten
And it's too much to say
I need you this way
Cause tomorrow, oh tomorrow
You're already gone
And I have to move on

. . .


We're like a painting
And now it's raining down
Watch the colors run till we're almost one
Watch us fading, in this one street town
We'll sleep where we follow no where at all.

Everyone wants something
Well I'm wanted by everyone but you.

Well I've been thinking about the bells with wine
Can't you see how time doesn't count at all
We've been sinking', thumbs to the sky
Sing this lullaby, if you start to fall.

See everyone wants something
Well you wanted everyone, but you.

And sometimes I need the light
To sleep alone on this weary night
And you own the sky, you own the sky
And everyone wants something
Well if we're wanted, it's by everyone but you.

I watch you sleeping', in your parents bed
Near the books you've read, underneath the shroud of
forgiveness.
You look around the crowd, hear the stories loud
So stand up now cause,
Everyone wants something, and if they're wanted,
It's by everyone but you.
