Same Time Next Year
03:59

miles to go
behind the wheel tonite
chasing lines through sleeping towns
rollin up on a place I dreamed of
givin up on the street behind
while the stars hold the night sky
feel the sun begin to rise
on a scene in a door I walked through
long ago with a friend of mine
maybe then we’ll see
what we made and what we missed
I’ll be back same time next year
we were new and burned out
on the street
twice as hot as summer sun
listening hard to a distant beat
gettin down to a different drum
soon enough we could make
our own reasons
didn’t need anyone at all
we could live and die for free
we could live our fantasy
maybe then we’ll see
what we made and what we missed
I’ll be back same time next year
isn’t everything the same?
maybe then I’ll see you
sitting right down next to me
and you’ll whisper in my ear
you wanna take a walk
maybe then i’ll see
what we made and what we missed
I’ll be back same time next year

Make it Last

for every baby born
there’s a reason why
you learn to breathe
you learn to cry
can you show me where
the lucky child is born
never gonna say goodbye
that’s all I wanted
just to make it last
hold on tight
baby hold on fast
that’s all I wanted
it was too much to ask
hold on tight
make it last
hold your breath
and we’ll walk through the land
of make believe
I’ll pretend like I know the way
all my life I never stopped running
in your arms I was home to stay
that’s all i wanted
just to make it last
hold on tight
baby hold on fast
that’s all i wanted
it was too much to ask
hold on tight
make it last
go on have your way
I’ll make it through another day
sometimes I just can’t dance
there might come a day
nothing matters anyway
but the time
we made it last

Miss Ecstasy
04:04
|

the last time I looked in your eyes
I heard fearless angels call
send me a heart unbroken
and I’ll show you how to fall
into the aching valley
where lovers come to crawl
roll your eyes miss ecstasy
lay your body down with me
float into the mystery
and we’ll fly...
listen up my frightened child
there’s no use playing small
nothing real is out here
just mirrors in the hall
wait beside your daydream
hang your masters on the wall
we’re waiting there for you
roll your eyes miss ecstasy
lay your body down with me
float into the mystery
and we’ll fly...ever fly high
realize your body
has a truth it needs to tell
get into the way you move
it will serve you well
see those who try and break you
and recognize their spells
blow them all away
roll your eyes miss ecstasy
lay your body down with me
float into the mystery
and we’ll fly...
forever fly high

Justified
03:50
|

I have lived underground
in the ruins of a factory town
the silk is gone
the brick is old
and the waters of the night run cold
I have seen amazing grace
holy men hold their faith
while beggars walk without a place
to rest their head
or wash their face
I’ve seen it in the faces
I thought I knew
living in places
we’ve all been through
justified
justified
out of love
I’ve been lost in a crowd
no compassion is allowed
where lines are drawn
by the names you wear
and peace of mind
an indifferent stare
I followed in the footstep
like my father did
as they sold out justice
to the highest bid
justified
justified
out of love
come untie my love
burn the night falling from above
no branch waiting for the dove
come untie my love
I’ve been shown left and right
countless souls have seen the light
they all rather fight
with rocks in hand
then live in peace
with people they don’t understand
young and old remember when
we could blame our lives
on other men
it’s not good enough
to compare now and then
once hate shuts you down
it never turns you on again
every generation blames the one before
waving to the children
send them off to war
justified
just a lie
out of love

Consolation Prize
04:25
|
|||
4 a.m. we talked of flying
waiting for the wind
to blow us off this island
it’s 4 a.m. again
I’m trying to make due
with one less dreamer on our side
you’re one of us- don’t be shy
step right up and claim your prize
we’re so sorry we already missed you
this is a consolation prize
go right in why don’t you
you’re right on time
you colored in the gray
like a sparkle in a blind eye
the old north end was cold
climbing down the avenue
the smell alone would get us high
you’re one of us- don’t be shy
step right up and claim your prize
we’re so sorry we already missed you
this is a consolation prize
everybody stay cool
nobody gets hurt
I’m getting tired of that line
you’re one of us- don’t be shy
step right up and claim your prize
we’re so sorry you’ve already left us
this is our consolation prize

Enough
03:46

did you know you knew
did you see a show
did you end up down on your knees
with a long way to go
did you wonder why
did you sing the blues
did you have it all at once
did you have to choose
why keep looking back
time keeps running on
a million miles away
stage light fade to black
I keep playing on
for all the stars I’ll never see
is enough enough
when is when
did we give enough
are we alright
so much harder to believe
god bless the child who’s free
did you start to stop
did you here the news
did you play that game
with your heart
did you win or lose
are you still playing the fool
did you right your wrong
did you want one too
did you cry did you lie
did you come unglued
are you still singing
why keep looking back
time keeps running on
a million miles away
stage light fade to black
i keep playing on
for all the stars we’ll never see
is enough enough
when is when
did we give enough
are we alright
so much harder to believe
is enough enough
is the end the end
can you break your fall
if you never bend
so much harder to believe
god bless the child whose free...
so much better than he seems to be

So Long
03:47
|

long ago when we were friends
went down to the bitter end
we made our sound
and we knocked them down
on a blanket in the park
caught the sky and felt a spark
coming back again
glowing in the wind
green light turned to red
history on your mind
you were falling backwards
I was flying blind
guess I knew it all along
I can say that I was wrong
but I can’t say so long
back in woodstock laying low
on a bender soon to grow
into another round in lazy town
next in line is next to know
can’t take her anywhere she won’t go
instant karma in the know
guess i knew it all along
I can say that I was wrong but
I can’t say so long
there’s no use pretending
no hollywood ending
no peace in comprehending
just get used to spending
nervous nights alone
the names we carved in faith remain
but roots were compromised w/ rain
in our old playground
so they cut her down
say you want to love again
foolish eye can’t see the end they’re bringing on
until it’s come and gone
talking to myself- better off this way
i’m still trying to forget silly things you used to say
guess I knew it all along
iI can say that I was wrong but
I can’t say so long

High Road

i believe the road least traveled
is a story told
with headlights on an empty street
de ja vu comes shining thru
shows you where
you could have been
I’ve always been a little slow
in letting go
after the lovers meet
young heart play the part
dreamers only know
what a wonderful show
but it’s over now
and I wonder how
I guess I should’ve known
I can fly around the world
I can learn about myself
I can write a million songs
will I love somebody else
I believe that proof’s asleep
deep inside of us
never gonna stop the rain
what you feel words are real
you’re living in disguise
I believed that one fine day
I would come around
come a time I’d understand
I must accept my Juliet
was written in my mind
should’ve read between the lines
but it’s over now
and I wonder how
guess i got to let it go
I can fly around the world
I can learn about myself
I can write a million songs
will I love somebody else

you can’t see the sign you don’t believe in
you can’t find the space you need to
breathe in
stories in the sand
are written in your hand
you want something more than I can give you
you can’t choose the life you want
to live through
voices in the night
shadows in the light
all that ever changes is your mind
all the things we’re giving up
are filling up your buttercup
all the things worth waiting for are here
all the things we’re fighting for
are just the words that come before
you don’t hear the song that I would sing for you
you might listen once but it won’t ring for you
the melody is strange
the voice is out of range
all these words mean something else to you
you might hear if they came from
you know who
the act is off the stage
rhyme is off the page
all that ever changes is your mind
all the things we’re giving up
are filling up your buttercup
all the things worth waiting for are here
all the things we’re fighting for
are just the words that come before
try and understand
singing in a band
all that ever changes is your mind
all the things we’re giving up
are filling up your buttercup
all the things worth waiting for are here
all the things we’re fighting for
are just the words that come before
all light, all life
every nation all creation
all the shit they’re saying
all the shit they’re spraying
all the leaders lying
all the people dying
all the things we’re learning
every wheel is turning
every form of matter
soon enough will scatter
life is living
love is giving life is giving love
is living life is giving love
is living life is
giving love

I’m seeing wrinkled skin
and evening coming on again
raise up all your glasses
and kiss your asses goodbye
I could be a school for you
I could bs a fool for you
raise up all your glasses
and kiss your asses goodbye
when you know
you don’t know
skies are blue
so are you
when you grow
you will sow
all the seeds inside of you
maybe there’s a second chance
maybe this is our last dance
raise up all your glasses
and kiss your asses goodbye
we could run away from here
but the end is always near
raise up all your glasses
and kiss your asses goodbye
take the time between your tears
drink your wine
and your beers
raise up all your glasses
and kiss your asses goodbye
