Hey 03:23
I was there when you said what I don't recall If I knew then I would have never called Just tell me all the words that I need to say And everybody said, "Hey, hey, hey..."

Atmosphere 06:00
Its alright I'm here said the man with the long time ago eyes It seems things have changed but that the way the lord enjoys spending time What has passed to make your smile an empty line Is it the sun that comes too strong on these barren winter lives? Its alright the sun isn't coming down Its just the atmosphere It seems the time we had ran out but I guess thats kind of clear If I was that woman over there with the grey in her hair I'd be asking all the young ones where the time had gone Not to find an answer just to see if they say its gone to Hell Cause though they are new here they're fresh from the spirit I still find it hard to tell Its alright the sun isn't coming down Its just the atmosphere It seems the time we had ran out but I guess thats kind of clear No one ever told me that this was it When I gladly took my first step on I guess I would've read it in a pamphlet But the time for revelation's gone Hold my hand I can't stay here anymore Its taking all I've got to be in front of you I understand you just took what was yours Did you ever stop to think of if it was? Don't feel bad we all did it just the same But now curled up shaking without hope Just be glad that the world will stand for justice And she'll decide real soon when we go home Just go home...

Gravel 05:09
Sunshine on my skin, butterflies A kiss in the wind before goodbye I got gravel in my toes singing lullabies The only song that I know all have goodbye You're far away Fighting all your demons Feeling like the world is On fire Maybe I can't feel it Cause I feel like I'm drowning in your love Talking on the phone makes me sigh I can't hear your soul through the line All I can hear is silent cries I'm beginning to feel broken inside You're far away Fighting all your demons Feeling like the world is On fire Maybe I can't feel it Cause I feel like I'm drowning in Your love All the sweetest kisses filling up my lungs so I can Breathe remember how I sing this So slow and sweet so I can hear you Sigh, I love to hear that baby Thats my favorite sound in this life Well I'll hold on to this love It is the one thing that keeps me walking Home where I know truth As I go onward I know I'll always Hold on, hold on, hold on to this love

Backroads 05:18
On the backroads we were driving and I was talking We were going somewhere special for the day I love to do that, when we were happy it seemed to hide away the pain Looking back now, I see your sorrow and what took you far away Here’s some love, here’s some hope Oh, riding roads Oh, riding roads In the driveway you were crying on the steering wheel And I was trying to find that something that burned in you Is it your dad, is it your past is it all my fault Well, just know that you’re exactly perfect and you’re on the right road Here’s some love, here’s some hope Oh, riding roads Oh, riding roads Riding on the backroads sets you free, oh be free, yes be free From all your troubles just be free, oh be free, yes be free From all your sorrow just be free, oh be free, yes be free Riding on the backroads sets you free When the sun shines and the rain leaves, you can lean out the window Let the wind blow all your soul home and your eyes can smile Don’t ask what happened just say nothing and you’ll realize That this is perfect we’re the lucky ones and we’re on the right road Here’s some love, here’s some hope Oh, riding roads Oh, riding roads

Dawn 05:23
Love took a trip out the window Sadness left her things in the hall He put on a smile although she Left him with nothing but dawn If there had been a letter It would be written on an old birthday card Saying I love you always Although I can't be with you till we're gone Shining our love to the oceans Embracing the moon and her stars Watching the sun warm the meadows Watching what we left from the stars Love took a trip out the window Sadness left her things in the hall He put on a smile although she Left him with nothing but dawn

Rain 03:18
And it rained on my doorstep And it rained on my heart

Sing 02:25
I stepped out the city holding two bags with me One with food and the other my guitar I sat near the stream where the wind pulled the trees hair And I sang out this song to my lord I sang Why am I singing If no life can come from this living? I tried to give them What they want but now I'm left with nothing Well the black heart of business had stolen the music That I keep deep within my heart By forgetting to listen they have been missing My truth as they quantify my worth Why am I singing If no life can come from this living? I tried to give them What they want but now I'm left with nothing I won't kneel for money or any of your honey I just want the truth from your heart These songs I am singing are not from me thinking they are given from the heaven above Well I'll keep on singing these songs I am given Even if its only for the trees This stream where I'm sitting holds many more wisdoms Than any of the stages I could play
8.
Nothing 02:05
There will be Hell to pay When I finally get my way And there will be nothing that you could say Nothing you could say
9.
Warm 06:27
It was hard for me to find you You were hiding in your house Your eyes were empty I picked you up so gently You fell into my arms You were still warm You go I'll stay here Walking with my eyes closed You could always guide my feet These dreams aren't walking Empty words without you No one ever tells the truth But you, you told me You lie With skies above You lie instead of getting up You go I'll stay here... It was hard for me to find you You were hiding in my arms You were still warm
