The Key

Before you walk beside me there’s something that I’ve
got to know.
Are you tryin’ to find me, or are you just puttin’ on a show?

Cause I don’t want to be there when the lights go down,
if you don’t want to be there when the lights go down.
There’s too many people playin’ too many games.
I’d rather shine like the sun light, than cry like the rain.

I can define my meaning but sometimes we like to be alone.
Is it a love that your feeling or are you just puttin’ on a show?

Cause I don’t want to be there when the lights go down,
if you don’t want to be there when the lights go down.
There’s too many people playin’ too many games.
I’d rather shine like the sun light, than cry like the rain.

There’s something deep down inside me that too many people let go.
So come and walk beside me and see why it never will be sold.

No Time

 We hit the highway in the early mornin’ and we ain’t got none to spare.
The lines are drawn and the helmets are on and nobody wants to share.
I saw the sun in a red corvette, and she was makin’ it hard to steer.
But then she noticed I was lookin’ her way and shifted into high gear.
‘Cause…

Everybody wants someone, everybody needs someone, everybody’s lookin’
for love; but we ain’t got no time, and it’s so hard to find.
No we aint got no time, and it’s so hard to find.

We take our cars to the local bars, and everybody’s dressin’ up.
The music’s loud and the hounds are out, showin’ off all there stuff.
A couple of rounds and the race is on you know your name is on the line.
They turn you down so you turn it up, and you wind up in a bind.
‘Cause…

Everybody wants someone, everybody needs someone, everybody’s lookin’
for love; but we aint got no time, and it’s so hard to find.
No we aint got no time, and it’s so hard to find.

Run, run, I’m runnin’ away cause there’s too much goin’ down.
I’ve been trying’ to hide myself ten feet under ground.
But no one wants to leave it alone, they just can’t let it be.
I need some help ’cause I’m so damn lost you know my eyes can’t even
see.
‘Cause…

Everybody wants someone, everybody needs someone, everybody’s lookin’
for love; but we ain’t got no time, and it’s so hard to find.
No we aint got no time, and it’s so hard to find.
Well I wish that we had some time, so I could take you for a ride,
And I could show you how I shine, but we aint got no time.

What You Lost

Had much to say, with little to have seen.
The light was a reason.
The night was the day to climb a mountain, to right a wrong,
to need someone, to be strong.

With love came an answer.
With love came a way.
With love came a question.
Love can fade away.

To climb a mountain.
To write a song.
To find freedom to be wrong.

Yesterday is so much faster than tomorrow.
I don’t know where I belong anymore.
You’ve got to find a way to cry without the sorrow,
so you won’t be afraid to open up the door.

To climb a mountain.
To right a wrong.
To need someone to give you back what you lost.

Tomorrow

They show you the way everyday, everyday.
They want you to say what they want you to say,
but they won’t tell you what to do when you don’t want to follow.
So if you want to be free like the earth or the sea,
you have to learn what you need without being seen.
Here is a phrase that you might one day need to borrow:

Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.
Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.

You wake up one night and everything is all right,
cause you’re holding her tight and she turns on your light.
You better not fight cause you know that today is tomorrow.
Then something goes wrong like a word in a song and then your hearing
the sounds from a love song that ended in sorrow.

Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.
Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.

The politicians are scared and the people don’t care.
We all want our share no matter what’s fair.
We better beware cause soon we’ll all be too sick to swallow.
So if you want to be free like the earth or the sea,
you’ve got to give what you need without all the greed.
Here is a phrase that you may someday want to borrow:

Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.
Yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s, yesterday’s today’s tomorrow.

A Song of Hope

No one wants to realize, until all the trees are gone.
The air we’re breathin’ is fadin’ away.
The writin’ is on the wall.
Money may be the answer to all the short term tolls,
but in the end you’ll find that the beauty lies in the rainbow not the
pot of gold.

I want to see what’s never been seen.
I want to fly like a bird above the sea.
I want to write with an effort that won’t leave,
and I want you to believe in me.

Singin’ a song of hope, for reasons that aren’t to clear.
Sometimes I find myself wishin’ I lived in a world without the fear.
When I think about makin’ money, I think about so much more.
There’s’ one thing I know about high and low, no risk means no reward.

I want to see what’s never been seen.
I want to fly like a bird above the sea.
I want to write with an effort that won’t leave,
and I want you to believe in me.

I want to see what’s never been seen.
I want to fly like a bird above the sea.
I want to write with an effort that won’t leave,
and I want you to believe in me.

Ecstasy

 He don’t want to know the reasons why he’s pulled away. The fire turned
to ice tonight, and he doesn’t know what to say. It don’t get old if
it’s made of gold – it shines like a diamond. Crazy like the man from
space who knows that he aint lyin’.

Ooh, Ooh, he wants to see, what lies behind the mystery.

She don’t want to be afraid of who she’d like to be. Her sickness is
a symptom of our sad society. Pain produced by people locked in chains
of misery. Lose your dreams when you wan to lose your key to being
free.

Ooh, Ooh, she wants to be, in a state of ecstasy..

We don’t have to stand around and wait for what we need. The plane
is fueled, the runway’s clear it’s time for us to leave. It don’t
get old if it’s made of gold – it shines like a diamond. Crazy like
the man from space who knows that he aint lyin’.

Ooh, ooh, I want to be in a state of ecstasy.
Ooh, ooh, I want to see what lies behind the mystery.
Ooh, ooh, I want to be in a state of ecstasy.
Ooh, ooh, I want to see what lies behind the mystery.

The Other Side

I tried tonight for the other side.
I lie in sight of the other side.
I cried inside with the other side.
I’ll die alive on the other side.

To ride the light – the other side.
To tell a lie – the other side.
To see the eye – the other side.
It’ll change your mind – the other side.

It Happens

I remember when the days were long. It was a time for dying with
a smile on, when we walked or ran, we didn’t need a car. We were all
for real, we didn’t need a bar. Then it happened. It happened.

You can meet her on a rainy day, and you can feel the sun when she
looks your way, and you will swear that the stars are shinin’ in her
eyes, and you will never ever want to see her cry. Then it happens.
It happens.

I don’t know when it happened. I don’t know why it happens. I don’t
know when it’s gonna happen. I only know that it happens.

It happens…

I wanna find a way to ride the wave – today, tomorrow, and yesterday.
I’m always quick to run from a simple sound, cause I know right when
my feet are firmly on the ground it’s gonna happen. It’s gonna happen.

The Return

In the deepest depths, despair;

there arises a calm.

The storm, is the return; and in it learned – who you are.

Good luck.

The Light

The union was good. The union is bad. A car is
nightmare I wish I never had.
I hear what you’re sayin’ but who draws the lines? People of paper –
puttin’ up signs.

The forests are falling, our fuels in the air. Check out the city,
there’s shit everywhere.
I’d have to say it seems like nobody cares, but that’s why I’m singing –
that’s why it’s there.

The light. The light. Out of the darkness, comes the light.

They’re runnin’ for office with mud in their hands. I’m not gonna vote
for a kid in big pants.

I hear what you’re sayin’ but who draws the lines? People of
paper – puttin up signs.

Time is escaping though the message is clear. There’s no point in
shouting when no one can hear. I’d have to say it seems like nobody cares, but that’s why I’m singing – that’s why it’s there.

The light, the light, out of the darkness comes the light.
The light, the light, out of the darkness comes the light.

You’re fightin’ for somethin’ – you find out it’s wrong. You feel like a
fool when you thought you were strong. I hear what you’re sayin’ but who draws the
lines? People of paper – who keep puttin’ up signs.

The truth is a secret when it’s blocked by a lie, told by street corner
preachers formin’ clouds in the sky. Pollutin’ the rain with a gleam in their eyes –
they’d sell the sun in a bottle for a buck ninety nine.

The light, the light, out of the darkness comes the light.
The light, the light, out of the darkness comes the light.
