I had a woman and she had a child It lasted one summer Till this young heart ran wild It seems there is nothing in this world that binds When you're trying to find your place in the line I can remember back in high school days Living for freedom and not for th...

Won't you pick up the phone, 'Cause I know that you're home Too many words have not been said For us to be livin' alone Now all of the fighting All of the tears They don't matter now Another night falls Dark and lonely You're the only one that I can turn to...

It's your life and I'm not gonna live it The change is coming and it's overdue I'm gonna take you over the limit You know I'm only looking out for you (CHORUS) I get lucky I get lucky And I'll see You get lucky too I'll be there when you get into a...

I'll play guitar to make the rent And you can make our family three I might not make a million dollars But a million dollars won't make me I'm looking out on the stars tonight Thinking about this human zoo There's poor old Leo watching the cars roll by Screami...

I'm in the mood for a sad song, one that cries on it's own And we can sing it together, so I don't cry all alone Seems I don't know where to go, since she went away And the room's spinning faster, as the record plays It's the one that reminds me of much better...

Why you wanna break me down Every time I come around You've done all a woman can To make me feel like half a man But something in the sky above Keeps lifting up my heart to love Oh yeah, yeah So baby open up that door 'Cause I'm standing in the rain Begging fo...

It's your choice If you want to go But this time, this time there's no Turning back Or draggin' me down Into your blue ocean Into your ghost town 'Cause I've had enough Of all the words you think you mean This track is long And runs one way from all I've seen...

It's hard to find a reason To keep standing in the rain I owe it to my heart to try again Now I'm standing on the corner In a town that's hard to face 'Cause it feels like I'm drifting Through outer space So was it in, was it out Tell me what it's all about Pr...

I knew Mary when she was a baby One little girl and one big little man Five years younger, she cried like the thunder I watched her reach ten and never saw her again From one boys home to one prison cell Mary I've known this world's bitter hell But come this w...

To watch her walk away was all that I could take I had to stop my feet from making a fool of me Now I make a point of staying far away From this kind of activity 'Cause every time I try, I find I'm only losing heart And I start to wonder why Everyone's in lov...

Fields of patience Mountains of pain Innocence fell from this runaway train Planets of mercy Great skies of hope Send me an angel With a holy rope Daydreams and wishes Tarnish and rust Truth is here somewhere Coughing up dust Crawl through the madness And cli...

I left home on a southbound train One September in the pouring rain A midnight flyer and a girl named Lori Rose Mama said, son it won't last She'll be gone when you're out of cash Hey mama, I need a ride back home All your life you run to love You give your he...

Heaven knows what made my heart go deeper into this love I have tried to do what's right but I could use just a little help from Above 'Cause all I do is dream of her through these lonely, lonely days And when I rise, I see her eyes and I think Jesus, Jesus sh...

Through the shadows, dark as shame I can still hear your voice falling down with the rain Washing memories from the trees Till this road's covered over and lost in the leaves Careless children, fresh as sin I was your trouble and you were my friend Sweet as ra...

Well I'm tired of losing you I'm so tired of losing you The way you come and go You must be wearing out your shoes Well I'm torn Torn in two, torn in two And I'm looking down the tunnel of our love But I can't see through Just a cold dark river and a heart of...

Rain down mercy For the lost and lonely child For the liars and the losers The reckless and the wild There's no more use in pretending I know I never fooled you The deepest darkness I've ever known Comes from living like I do But I swear I'm gonna knock on tha...

The earth was trembling on their wedding day The sun was cold, the sky was chrome They spoke their lines like actors in a play Changed their clothes and hurried home Now in their dreams the season lingers There is no wisdom in this pain She turns the ring arou...

This is the room Where I sat and waited till the morning Watching the door You slammed so hard it broke the window Up and down, I've climed these walls It seems I'm trapped inside this House full of reasons I should be movin on You had me believing This is th...

Go to church on Sunday morning Come home and beat my wife. My name is Joe, and you know me. I've lived here all of my life. (What a life) I've got this pain I cannot speak of. I'm not so bad as people say. Got two kids who look like angels But sometimes Somet...

It's a glorified high school In a Kodak flash Homecoming kings and queens And pretty white trash Graveyard mansions Social x-ray gowns Don't trip in my yard buddy Don't bring me down I won't bleed, I won't bleed anymore, no I won't I won't bleed anymore than...

You could have me sewn Into your blue jean pocket You could have me anyway you want You know Innocence is gold In a world of such large children In this playground we call life You know So why's it gotta be so hard? Why you wanna hurt so bad? Why won't you t...

Poetry and angels Flowers and perfume You fill your house with pretty things Pretty things hide the bitter truth Well there's a fire on the mountain Burning out of control And you're standing at the top now With nowhere left to go So lock your doors up tight A...

"Rain down mercy, for the lost and lonely child, For the liars and the losers, reckless in the wild There's no use in pretending, I know I never fooled you, The deepest darkness I've ever known, it comes from living like I do. But I swear I'm gonna knock on th...

Walking up Broadway, face down in the wind The mission bells ring as the night falls in If I had a car, man I'd fill her up and drive Where the bright lights shine and the strong survive You know I call myself a writer but I never get paid Send letters back ho...

Did you have something to say Or were you just drinkin' again Did you call me up to see if I was alone? Drinkin' down those last call blues And wearin' out your wedding shoes Wishin' your life was your own Well I been thinkin' about the way You sparkled when...

Walking the city, we walked a thousand times Everything looks different now Everything has changed somehow I'm talking to strangers and trying so hard to prove That everything will be alright Today I start to live my life But the fool inside my heart won't le...

Rain falls from southern skies I got a river falling from my eyes It's a bad desire for another world I break down in the dark of night Where is she goin' in a dress so tight You should be waiting for me... Victoria Now who do I turn to Oh, I can't keep it in...

Sitting on the back porch Everybody be damned Head in your hands, no particular plans But oh, so many thoughts and dreams unheard Words are nothing but words Words are nothing but words See the little children rolling in the yard And the sun goes down until it...

Dream town, no money down Young girls shine electric in the sun Mirror mirror, up in the sky Tell me, why should I be the lowly one Big splash, low on cash I don't know baby, and I don't care See, it comes and goes It's the highs and the lows of the hundred do...

This conversation is a trance And years fly by at a glance The blame game is the clue That everyone I ever loved is you And you've done nothing wrong And this is more than a break up song It's simple as honesty And honest as the hole in me Eyes that see for...

It's time to greet the world (Time to greet the world) Life size, open your eyes You've picked apart every word she ever spoke (Ah, she ever spoke) Your life's a joke, get out of bed 'Cause you're not dead In fact you're all you've got So move if you're goin'...

Black road, Georgia trees Midnight moon just stay with me Like a lighthouse in the sky Let these eighteen wheels fly I woke up this morning in a Motel Five Brokenhearted, I'm gonna drive through the night Down the open road I asked her where she stood She said...

When the sun comes up on another day And the sidewalk shines and the streetlights sway In the autumn wind, hard like the times I'll dream of yours, peaceful in mine And when the stars fall out of sight A flame will burn in a frozen night With a simple wish in...

Everyone living in their private worlds Looking for love It's a fashionable word, you know love But can you show love Can you show love Show me now a love so deep Take my tears away from me Show me there is honesty Prove me wrong Show me there is still a praye...

Have you heard the news? It's raining on the moon The man in the TV said, "It's raining on the moon" Even the scientists can't believe it's true They're showing diagrams and little moon cartoons Where we are is everything we know All we've got is the love tha...

Sunset on the river Down in old watertown Hear the train whistle blowin' As the leaves kiss the ground Oh, I'm right there now I was just a young boy Going nowhere soon With a dream and a beat-up six-string You're just howling at the moon Oh, I'm right there n...

I'm the old man at the dance hall I'm the young man in his grave I'm the one you're gonna cry for When you find I've gone away There's a phone booth on a corner A thousand miles from here With a thousand miles between us She could whisper in my ear But Sheila...

Don't you ever turn on me I've got something that you need It drives you wild In the mirror, I'm watching you Show me everything you do It drives me wild I like the way you look when there's something that you want Your mind's an open book when there's someth...

Making it real, making it whole Somewhere you and I know We're making believe it's in our control I want to reach up when the dark night comes I want to take you far from here to somewhere we belong Somewhere there's a rainbow Shining along the rivers of old...

Like ghosts on open windows The curtains rise and fall The past is a foreign country At the dark end of the hall And the morning is an offering To the shelter of the day But the violent come and they bury it away Time goes by at the speed of life Slower than a...

Yeah, yeah, uh-huh Well I'm tired of the pressure So tired of the pace Just wanna grab you baby And get out of this place I got no chance of making it Working downtown Just walking slow and talking low And tired of going down, down, down Start the car, we gott...

Through the back door, my heart pounding Up the stairwell it's dark and dingy I can feel the cold sweat on my fingertips What is this power you have over me You with your black eyes and your red dress In the afternoon the sun shines on Temple Street All the Me...

Liven up, loose the chains It's hard to lie down in the driving rain I lost a job I thought I had My friends say, maybe that ain't so bad You gotta lose boy, to learn to win Life's just a game I'll never understand But the ride is rough And when you fall, you...

Something about the way your eyes lately Look up and down and everywhere but me, yeah Something about tonight I know is missing And I know it's more than insecurity, yeah After all, all the time we've spent together Don't you think I'd feel something If I have...

What happened to Joey the strong believer He was a real straight shooter, but he got the fever Now he's cruisin' the downtown queen of the city With a feel for the street and he's dressing pretty 'Cause when she left him behind, something inside said no more T...

I sat on the roof as the night came down Looking out over this pitiful town And thought of you out there Back in the race Looking for someone to take my place That's when it hit me That's when the walls came down You see, I never thought it could happen to us...

You tell me that you're falling apart at the seams You're all talk, talk You're looking for a first class ticket to your dreams So just walk, walk I'm not the one responsible if you never ever find your miracle Baby, I would walk on water, I would do it for y...
