Sing it Loud
04:52
|
|||
There are no handcuffs or cufflinks to bind me
There are no prison cells
If you've hurt me in your passing
I hope you know that I wish you well
Maybe I was born unlucky
A bad star, a black cat too
Maybe I lost everything I hoped for
How in the world did I wind up with you
CHORUS
Sing it loud, from a mountain top
Sing it loud and sing it well
Hell was created for the unbelieving
It worries me but it's just as well
Just as well, it's just as well
I had no food, I had no money
No memory of how it was
I kept believing, I couldn't give up
I know it works, it really does
Your feet are burning on that fiery sidewalk
Your heart is hurting, how did I know?
Forever after you must live your choices
That's just the way, the way it goes
CHORUS
Sing it loud, from a mountain top
Sing it loud and sing it well
Hell was created for the unbelieving
It worries me but it's just as well
Just as well, it's just as well
Why don't you try, try a little harder
Let the hidden voice reveal the way
You already have the time and the trouble
Is there something more that I should say?
You give up at the very worst moment
Just when things are about to change
If you held on then the grave would open
For the living truth is that the truth remains
Yes the living truth is that the truth remains
CHORUS
Sing it loud from a mountain top
Sing it loud and sing it well
Hell was created for the unbelieving
It worries me but it's just as well
It worries me but it's just as well
It worries me but it's just as well

Build me a Castle
04:11
|
|||
White wine on a pony and I'm heading home
Take me as I am or leave me alone
No matter what we come to
We will never be apart
Build me a castle in your heart
Roses in a chandelier from Spain
There's nothing that I wouldn't do again
Whatever comes between us
It will only hold us close
So build me a castle in the place
Where I love you the most
CHORUS
Build me a castle
Build me a home
Build me a wind that will wear away at the stone
Build me a castle
And we will never be apart
Build me a castle in your heart
Path of least resistance lead me in
I am on my way to you again
The moment hangs forever
From the moment that we start
Build me a castle in your heart
White wine on a pony and I'm going home
Take me as I am or just leave me alone
No matter what we come to
We will never be apart
Build me a castle in your heart
CHORUS
Build me a castle
Build me a home
Build me a wind that will wear away at the stone
Build me a castle
And we will never be apart
Build me a castle in your heart

I Don't Love You Anymore
04:57
|
|||
There are sweet dreams and visions and nightmares
There are dishes piled up in the sink
And 'though I know it will only destroy me
I am badly in need of a drink
Some people spend their whole lives in prison
For just what you are doing to me
And If I am going to die with my pants down
Then I know which end of me you will see
CHORUS
Call all the radio stations
The talking heads on TV
Ring out the bells from the ship to the shore
To say I don't love you any more
I worshiped the ground that you walked on
I was glad it was holding you up
If I had only known what was coming
Then I would have been wearing a cup
Well you've broken my heart for the last time
I know that I have said that before
No ones ever come this close to ending my life
So darling I don't love you any more
CHORUS
Call all the radio stations
The talking heads on TV
Ring out the bells from the ship to the shore
To say I don't love you any more
I got some small satisfaction
When you gave my friends venereal disease
And I suppose that I should be grateful
That you weren't sleeping with me
They say that there's one born every minute
So then I've done more than my share of time
And I just hope you don't have a sister
Waiting for me further down this line
CHORUS
Call all the radio stations
The talking heads on TV
Ring out the bells from the ship to the shore
To say I don't love you any more

Peace
03:52
|
|||
If I don't get to sing you
A private serenade
I hope you know I wanted to
It would have made my day
To hold you close as close could be
Until there's only one
If only for a little while
It would have made me young
There's a silken fountain
There's a true release
And if I don't get to show it to you
Then may I wish you peace
If I don't get to kiss you
Ah that would be so sad
It feels like I am supposed to
Like I already have
Life is such a mystery
So deep and so profound
Like looking in your eyes
And watching myself drown
CHORUS
If I don't get to feed you
I hope that you get fed
I wish you all the finest
And blessings on your head
Somewhere we are together
If only in my mind
But I just keep believing
I know what I will find
CHORUS

Who Do You Love
03:07
|
|||
I'm sailing around you
Round and around
Seen from each certain point
With scenes from above
Look into my eyes and tell me
Who do you love?
Will it last forever
Will I leave you when it ends
The story is still unfolding
With scenes from above
Look into my eyes and tell me
Who do you love?
CHORUS
Tell me that you love me
You know that I love you
There's an awful lot of highway
But I think we might get through
Through the loving everlasting
Of this moment we are in
Comes the dawn
And then it's now
So let's celebrate it in
I'm sailing around you
Round and around
Here in this land of dreams
With scenes from above
Look into my eyes and tell me
Who do you love?
Do I get to love you
Or do I love you now?
I'm not sure we can see from above
Look into my eyes and tell me
Who do you love?
CHORUS
Tell me that you love me
You know that I love you
There's an awful lot of highway
But I think we might get through
Through the loving everlasting
Of this moment we are in
Comes the dawn
And then it's now
So let's celebrate it in
I'm sailing around you
Round and around
Seen from each certain point
With scenes from above
Look into my eyes and tell me
Who do you love?

I went down to the western store
To get myself some clothes
Hand woven denim jeans
Boots made in New York
I want to look like I was there
When the hard, hard work got done
Like I put these miles on my face
Last year when I was young
Its hard to be a cowboy
When you've never punched a cow
That's not the part I'm after
So please don't show me how
Some day I'm going to Texas
When my clothes are broken in
Yeah I'll kick some ass in Dallas
All the way to New Orleans
But Tonight I'm flying to Las Vegas
Into the wind and on my way
I'm gonna dance like there is no tomorrow
'cause my pick-up truck is pregnant
And my wife got towed away
CHORUS
Oh my pickup truck is pregnant
Riding real low to the ground
And now my wife is missing
Sure, I checked the lost and found
The last thing she said was "bull sh** !"
And then she closed the door
And I guess I'll never really know
How come she left me for
Tell me why it makes a difference
If I look like what I'm not
I don't need to be authentic
As long as I look hot
I can drink from the long neck bottles
And talk that western sh**
There may be some pieces missing
But I've got the most of it
Nobody knows what's real or not
And don't nobody care
I can squint like Willie Nelson does
I got Lyle Lovett's hair
You only have to look the part
It's just like in DC
Where they went and made a president
From a cowboy just like me
And Tonight I'm flying to Las Vegas
Into the wind and on my way
I'm gonna dance like there is no tomorrow
'cause my pick-up truck got pregnant
And my wife got towed away
CHORUS
Oh my pickup truck is pregnant
Riding real low to the ground
And now my wife is missing
Sure, I checked the lost and found
The last thing she said was "bull sh** !"
And then she closed the door
And I guess I'll never really know
How come she left me for

All The Things That I wanted
I can't change them now
I can be free in the long run
Or I can be free right now
I could dream about loving you
Or I could love you right now
'cos the whole point of my trying
Is to reach you somehow
To reach out and touch you
And then let you know
That I've been loving you always
From a long time ago
I've been loving you always
You're precious and so fine
And you're the crowning, crowning glory
Of my lifetime
Every woman is an angel
That you treat like one
You look at your victims
See the damage you have done
You could stop, stop the hurting
And the waters would clear
And there in the mirror
Love would appear
All those things that I wanted
I can't change them now
I can be free in the long run
Or I can be free right now
I could dream about loving you
Or I could love you right now
'cos the whole point of my trying
Is to reach you somehow

In That Shape Again
03:42
|
|||
The night is walking sideways
And I'm four sheets to the wind
I promised myself this morning
I would not be like this again
But I had a scotch for lunch
And a few drinks in my car
And I thought about my problems
Now I'm drinking in this bar
CHORUS
How far can you go
To the point of no return
How far can you go
'til you can't come back at all
How far is too far, oh I remember when
But now I can't remember
'cause I'm in that shape again
Someone said go see Jesus
But they didn't tell me where
I probably won't get home tonight
I know that I don't care
Let's have another sip of moonlight
'cause that moon she shines all day
And if you want to forget yourself
There will always be a way
CHORUS
How far can you go
To the point of no return
How far can you go
'til you can't come back at all
How far is too far, oh I remember when
But now I can't remember
'cause I'm in that shape again
She was pretty when I met her
But she's not pretty now
'cause it's the morning after
And I don't remember how
We got to this apartment
Or how we got undressed
Or what we both did afterwards
Now I can only guess
CHORUS
How far can you go
To the point of no return
How far can you go
'til you can't come back at all
How far is too far, oh I remember when
But now I can't remember
'cause I'm in that shape again

Love Goes Home Alone
04:45
|
|||
See them on the street together
Walking in the park
Sitting in a restaurant
Gazing in each others' eyes
The light that never dies
And she is on the telephone
Love goes home alone
See them in the elevator
Going to their room
They touch each other tenderly
Their love is like a melody
They play it out in harmony
And she is on the telephone
Love goes home alone
CHORUS
Love goes home alone
And stares into the night
And dreams about her fortunes
That nothing can make right
She reaches in the darkness
Even though they are far apart
And someone stares beside her
And it just breaks her heart
CHORUS
Love goes home alone
And stares into the night
And dreams about her fortunes
That nothing will make right
She reaches in the darkness
Even though they are far apart
And someone stares beside her
And it just breaks her heart
They're standing at the boarding gate
She swears she will not cry
Sorrow cannot change the truth
She turns away and lifts her head
Love is sleeping, never dead
She just hears a telephone
Love goes home alone
Later on that same day
He's sitting in his home
In another place and time
Image plays on in his mind
The dream is all he left behind
He just sees the telephone
Love goes home alone
CHORUS
Love goes home alone
And stares into the night
And he dreams about his fortune
That nothing will make right
Reaches in the darkness
Even though they are far apart
And someone moves beside him
And it just breaks his heart

Patterns
04:14

The sun comes up
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes out
And the world spins around
And the streets go by
And the lights go on
And then the lights go out
And we all must move on
You know I wonder some
And then I look for signs
Then the sun comes up
And I'm way behind
CHORUS
Life is always weaving the same patterns
Yes, that you, know you must be mistaken
Shadows break on your face
Then I'm certain
I've got to start all over
Start all over again
I've got to start all over
Start all over again
Start all over
Start all over again
Looks like I've got to start all over
Start all over again
You were close to me
Like it was destiny
Then time went by
Now you're a memory
I hear the night birds sing
I watch the fireflies
There's almost change
Is that your alibi?
The tide comes in
Yes, the tide returns
I dance on the shore
And I never learn
CHORUS
That life is always weaving the same patterns
That you know you must be mistaken
Shadows break on your face
And I'm certain
I got to start all over
Start all over again
I have to start all over
Start all over again
The sun comes up
And the sun goes down
And the moon comes out
And the world spins around
