I’M FOR YOU
HERE I STAND BEFORE YOU
FEELS LIKE I’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
AND GOD BLESS US BOTH BABE I ADORE YOU
BUT WE BOTH KNOW WE NEEDED MORE MORE MORE MORE….
OVER TIME WE HAVE MADE DO
THROUGH ALL THE MANY BROKEN HEARTS
YOU KNOW WE BOTH HAVE HAD A LONG ROAD
HEALING’S A PATH OF FITS AND STARTS
BUT YOU SAID HEY WILL YOU WALK WITH ME TILL TIME IS THROUGH
AND I SAID HONEY I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN SEE MY WAY THROUGH
TO A PLACE WHERE I FEEL FREE OF ALL THIS LIFE HAS MADE ME DO AND YOU SAID HEY IT’S OKAY BABY I’M HERE FOR YOU
ONE FOOT IN AND ONE STEP ON
ONE DAY AT A TIME MAYBE I CAN TAKE THIS
BUT WHERE MY HEART LONGS TO SING ITS SWEET SONG HONEY
SURVIVAL AIN’T THE GOAL I’M MAKING
BUT YOU SAID HEY WILL YOU WALK WITH ME TILL TIME IS THROUGH AND I SAID HONEY I DON’T KNOW IF I CAN BE THE ONE FOR YOU I AM SO AFRAID I CAN’T TURN ONE AND ONE TO TWO
AND YOU SAID HEY IT’S OKAY BABY LET ME HELP YOU
HERE WE ARE
I CAN’T BELIEVE WE’VE COME THIS FAR
HANGING ON A SHOOTING STAR
YOU AND ME MORE THAN A TEAM WE ARE A LOVE THAT BROKE THE BAR
AND YOU SAID HEY WILL YOU WALK WITH ME
COME ON NOW HONEY WILL YOU WALK WITH ME
COME ON AND WALK WITH ME AND DANCE AND SING AND TALK WITH ME
COME ON BABY WON’T YOU ROCK WITH ME
WE’RE GONNA TAKE A LITTLE WALK AND SEE NOW
HEY WILL YOU WALK WITH ME TILL TIME IS THROUGH
AND I SAID HONEY HOLD ME CLOSE SO I CAN FIND MYSELF IN YOU
I DON’T KNOW IF I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED TO MAKE THIS TRUE
AND YOU SAID HEY IT’S OKAY BABY I LOVE YOU
HEY IT’S OKAY BABY I’M HERE FOR YOU

I DIDN’T MEAN IT
WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT
I DON’T WANT TO FIGHT, SIT AROUND LIKE THIS ALL NIGHT
WONDERING WHY OH WHY OH WHY, I CAN’T SEEM TO DO ANYTHING RIGHT
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO CONNECT, BELIEVE ME I DIDN’T THINK IT WOULD GO LIKE THIS
CUZ WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN
AND I DON’T KNOW HOW CUZ I DIDN’T MEAN
WHAT YOU THINK I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT
AND I CAN’T BELIEVE, OH WHAT YOU MUST BE THINKING OF ME
I'VE BEEN WAITING WAITING WAITING, FOR YOU TO SEE THINGS LIKE I SEE
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO CONNECT, BELIEVE ME I DIDN’T WANT IT TO GO LIKE THIS
OH BABY BUT WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN
AND I DON’T KNOW HOW CUZ I DIDN’T MEAN
WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID BABE IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT
EVERY TIME TURNS OUT THE SAME, CRAZY BOY I FEEL INSANE
WHY MUST YOU READ ME THIS WAY
IT’S LIKE WE’RE SPEAKING A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT LANGUAGE
CAN WE TURN IT AROUND, LET’S NOT STAY HERE CULTIVATING FROWN AFTER FROWN
I KNOW WE CAN GET BACK TO COMMON GROUND
CUZ WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID, OH IT'S IN YOUR HEAD
YOU KNOW BABY I, I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT YOU THINK THAT I SAID
YOU KNOW I, I'VE BEEN MISREAD I'VE BEEN MISREAD
WHAT COMES OUT OF MY MOUTH TURNS YOU UPSIDE DOWN AND INSIDE OUT
AND I DON'T KNOW HOW, CUZ WHAT I SAID IT’S IN YOUR HEAD
AND I BEEN MISREAD YOU KNOW I DIDN’T MEAN IT

STRENGTH TO STAY
I’VE BEEN WANTING TO RUN AWAY OH RUN AWAY
LATELY BABY IT’S SO HARD TO STAY, IT’S GETTING SO HARD TO STAY
AND IT SEEMS NO MATTER HOW I TRY SOMETHING JUST AIN’T RIGHT
AND I CAN’T SIT THROUGH ONE MORE ONE MORE LONESOME NIGHT
OH WHEN TIMES GET HARD
TELL ME WE’RE GONNA MAKE IT
I KNOW IT’S JUST ONE STEP ALONG THE WAY
TELL ME WE GOT THE STRENGTH TO STAY
I’M REMEMBERING A LONG TIME AGO BEFORE I SOLD MY SOUL
AND SEEING THE LIFE THROUGH THE EYES OF MY BABY CHILD
I WISH I COULD HAVE ANOTHER GO
OH WHEN TIMES GET HARD
TELL ME WE’RE GONNA MAKE IT
I KNOW IT’S JUST A STEP ALONG THE WAY
TELL ME WE GOT THE STRENGTH TO STAY
STAY IN LIGHT, STAY IN LOVE, WORK TOGETHER MAKE IT BETTER NOW
STAY, STAY AND LEARN, STAY AND GROW, WE’RE GONNA WORK IT TIL WE WORK IT OUT
STAY, THROUGH THE HIGHS, THROUGH THE LOWS, GETTING STRONGER AS WE WRESTLE THROUGH
STAY, WHILE IT’S GOOD, WHILE IT’S HARD, WHILE WE ARE LEARNING TO STAY
OH WHEN TIMES GET HARD
JUST TELL ME WE’RE GONNA MAKE IT
OH WHEN TIMES GET HARD
I NEED TO KNOW WE’RE GOING TO MAKE IT
I NEED TO KNOW IT’S JUST ONE STEP ALONG THE WAY
JUST TELL ME WE GOT THE STRENGTH

STEP OUTSIDE OF YOURSELF AND BREATHE
IS THIS WORLD REALLY AS IT SEEMS

WITH YOUR HEART OPEN ASKING HOW

I SAW YOUR PICTURE ON THE INTERNET
SUCH A FUNNY WAY TO CONNECT OR NOT
AT LEAST FEEL LIKE WE ARE
I THINK ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME NOW
AND EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN’T SEEN YOU IN TEN YEARS
IT STILL FEELS LIKE YOU’RE HERE
I’M SITTING HERE IN MY LITTLE WORLD
IN FRONT OF THE BIG SCREEN
EVEN THOUGH I AM REALLY ALL ALONE
I FEEL SO SEEN
YEAH, I SAW YOUR FACE AGAIN TODAY
AND THAT’S A REALLY CUTE PHOTO YOU’VE GOT THERE
I SEE YOU’VE STILL GOT YOUR HAIR
AND WHEN I GO TO CHECK MY EMAIL
IT’S SUCH A THRILL TO SEE YOU OPEN UP SO DEEP
I USED THINK YOU WERE A CREEP
I’M SITTING HERE IN MY LIVING ROOM
IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE WORLD
AND EVEN THOUGH I AM STILL ALL ALONE
I FEEL SO CURLED UP IN YOUR ARMS
IT’S VIRTUAL
YOU’RE VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING, I EVER WANTED IN A PERSON
SO HOW COULD I, OH HOW COULD I NOT SEE
HOW COULD I NOT SEE IT YEAH WHEN WE WERE FACE TO FACE
CUZ I’M SITTING HERE IN MY LITTLE WORLD
I FRONT OF THE BIG SCREEN
AND EVEN THOUGH I AM REALLY ALL ALONE
I FEEL SO SEEN
I’M SITTING HERE IN MY HOME OFFICE
WATCHING YOU FROM AFAR
EVEN THOUGH THIS MIGHT SOUND A LITTLE STRANGE
I’M IN LOVE WITH YOUR AVATAR
I’M SITTING HERE IN MY LIVING ROOM
IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE WORLD
AND EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE MARRIED WITH TWO KIDS
I FEEL SO CURLED UP IN YOUR ARMS
IT’S VIRTUAL

Long Dark Road

Long Dark Road
I saw a woman walking in a long black coat
In the dead of early morning on the side of the road
I don’t know where she’s going you know I’ll never know
But in my dreams she’s headed for a better home
A better home than this
What makes a woman leave her home
step out into the darkness totally alone
what kind of desperation moves her weary soul
if she dies before she gets there well at least she’ll know
She did her best to make it down the long dark road
I don’t wanna walk alone
Live without a place called home
I don’t wanna face the long dark road there’s got to be a better way
For someone to find her place
Why must i face the long dark road
This path that I am walking feels just like that road
I keep stumbling and falling and at times i’m losing hope
Though I know that with the sunrise comes the light of growth
I’m just holding to that vision of a better home
A better home than this lies down that long dark road
I don’t wanna walk alone
Live without a place called home
I don’t wanna face the long dark road there’s
Got to be a better way
For someone to find her place
Why must we face the long dark road
We move to the light to walk in the sun
The people we find the places we’ve Gone
The mountains we’ve climbed the things that we’ve done
To try and find our own
The chances gone by the paths we don’t choose
Mistakes that we’ve tried the games that we lose
Afraid to change now what if we don’t make it down that road
I don’t wanna walk alone
Live without a place called home
I don’t wanna face the long dark road there’s
got to be a better way for someone to find her place
Why must we face the long dark road
I don’t wanna walk alone
Live without a place called home
I don’t wanna face the long dark road there’s
Got to be a better way
For someone to find her place
Why must we face the long dark road

KILLING TIME
I never told you how I felt
You barely told me anything and I guess it’s just as well
Cuz you have built up a mountain between us
now you’re living in the valley on the other side where the grass is greener
But tell me baby how does it feel to be alone?
You’re talking to a vacancy on the other end of the telephone
And you can’t even see what’s in the mirror
You think that’s self aware but baby nothing could be nearer to a lie, to a lie…
And how can you call this the truth
How can you look me in the eye
And tell me that everything’s for you
to decide in your time
I thought I was giving everything
Now I know that I was holding back
Cuz how can you give yourself away to someone you know
Won’t ever give it back
You take your truth and you smoke it in your pipe and then you
Take yourself on a shopping spree till you’re barely half alive and then you
Cry in the darkness of your room
You’re half sunk, already skunked, but the game won’t end till you goddamn want it to
No, Till you goddamn want it to
How can you call this the truth
How can you look me in the eye
And tell me you know just what to do
And you’ll get by until it’s time
You’ll get by like this till it’s time
But what is time? who am I? who are we supposed to be to each other?
How can you call this the truth
How can you look me in the eye
Maybe it’s time for me and you to stop killing time getting by
Stop killing hope getting by
Stop killing change getting by
Stop killing time getting by

MAKIN’ PLANS MAKIN’ PROMISES MAKIN’ CHANGES
I FEEL THE WIND THROUGH THE TREES GET UP OFF OF OUR KNEES WE GOT TO GET UP AND
GO GET UP AND GO
WE’RE SITTING ON A LIFETIME OF PENDING SOMEDAYS
AND WORKIN SO HARD TO JUST TAKE CARE OF WHAT’S AT HAND
LIFE’S A CHORE ON THE FLOOR WITH ALL THIS CRASHING DOWN UPON ME
BUT NOW I KNOW I CAN GO AND I WILL NOT BE HELD BACK IN
I’VE GOT TO
GO GET UP AND GO
THE SUN’S ON MY FACE
AND THE BREEZE MOVES ME ON
WE TAKE THE LID OFF THIS CAGE AND THE RAT RACE IS GONE
IS GONE, IT’S GONE, IT’S GONE AND WE’LL
GO, GET UP AND GO
I KNOW TOMORROW THERE’S A PLACE FOR US IN SUMMERLAND

LISTENING CLOSELY WHILE THE WORLD TURNS
IT’S RAINING OUTSIDE EVEN MORE NOW
FREEZING COLD, BRILLIANT SNOW

WAITING FOR THE LIGHT WAITING FOR THE LIGHT
WAITING FOR THE LIES TO STOP
WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK BEHIND THE WRITING ON THE WALLS
CAN YOU READ THE SIGNS OH NO
IT’S THE POWER OF THE NON-CONSPIRACY CAN’T YOU SEE CAN’T YOU SEE
THEY’VE GOT US WRAPPED AROUND THEIR GRUBBY LITTLE FINGERS
DON’T EVEN HAVE TO ASK - WE’VE BEEN PLAYING PERFECT RINGERS
AND OH IT’S TIME TO BE SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES
EVERYONE’S TALKING SAYING MORE AND MORE
THINGS I DON’T BELIEVE IN HOW COULD THIS BE SO
YOU ARE NOT A BOTTOM LINE THIS WILL CERTAINLY BOTTOM OUT WE CANNOT CARRY ON LIKE WE’LL MAKE IT OUT JUST
WAITING FOR THE LIGHT WAITING FOR THE LIGHT
WAITING FOR THE LIES TO STOP
WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK BEHIND THE WRITING ON THE WALLS
CAN YOU READ THE SIGNS OH NO
IT’S THE POWER OF THE NON-CONSPIRACY CAN’T YOU SEE CAN’T YOU SEE

AND OH IT’S TIME TO BE SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES
SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES
WHAT DO YOU SEE WHEN YOU LOOK
WHEN YOU LOOK BEYOND THE WRITING ON THE WALL
CAN YOU READ ANOTHER SIGN
CAN YOU SEE BETWEEN THE LINES
DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
DO YOU KNOW THAT THE TRUTH IS MORE
IT'S TIME IT'S TIME

MAKE ME HOME
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT’S OVER THE CURTAIN DON’T FALL
THE SHOW NEVER CLOSES, THE PEOPLE DON’T GO
THERE’S NO CRITIC TO TELL YOU TO FOLD, OR TO STAY TWO MORE WEEKS
WHEN YOU’RE DOWN ON YOUR KNEES, TELL ME HOW DO YOU KNOW
I FEEL THE WIND BLOW I HEAR THE RADIO PLAYING
A SONG THAT REMINDS ME OF HOME
I THINK IT’S TIME TO GO HOME
MAYBE I’VE NEVER KNOWN WHAT YOU COULD EXACTLY CALL HOME
SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE ME HOME, WON’T YOU PLEASE MAKE ME HOME
AND I THINK IT’S STRANGE IT’S ALMOST CERTAIN I’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
HOW COULD I FORGET, WOULD YOU FORGET YOUR OWN NAME
THERE’S NO SIGNPOST AHEAD ON THIS ROAD, THAT’LL POINT YOUR WAY BACK
WHEN YOU’RE LOST AND OFF TRACK, OH TELL ME HOW DO YOU KNOW
WELL I FEEL THE WIND BLOW I HEAR THE RADIO
PLAYING, A SONG THAT REMINDS ME OF HOME
I THINK IT’S TIME TO GO HOME
MAYBE I’VE NEVER KNOWN WHAT YOU COULD EXACTLY CALL HOME
SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE ME HOME, WON’T YOU PLEASE MAKE ME HOME

WELL HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT’S OVER
