Love Wins Again
03:18
|

You say you’re done fussin’ and fightin’
Your patience wearin’ way past thin
You’re up to here with all the lonely
This is where we begin
Now this is so much more than romance
Crystal clear right from the start
We fit together now in any kind of weather
You open my heart - whoa my heart
Ain’t no wrong way about it
Honey it’s plain to see
We never need to doubt it
Love wins again!
Sorrow’s all the way over
Baby I guarantee
Walkin’ in four leaf clover
Love wins again!
Babe listen I got news now
The birds are singin’ it from the trees
They ain’t any better time than the present
If you believe … it can be
Like a drunken fighter
You’re swingin’ right with all your might
Better drop the gloves - just feel the love
I swear
We start tonight

Real Slow
03:51
|

Take your time. What’s your rush
Everything moves so fast. Everyone’s so tough
I’ve been down so long
Don’t know which way is up
But what you do to me
I just can’t get enough
And when you takin’ your time
Real slow
And we’re lost in the moment
When you’re lifting me up
So high
And we’re lost in the moment
Free your mind and just let yourself go
I wanna feel you body moving up against me
Real slow!
All those other people
Well they’re acting insane
But you know how how much I want you
Got me feeling deranged
You know I want you so bad
I’ll do anything you want
Your love’s takin me
Up where where I wanna be
Higher and higher we go
Your love’s lifting me
Up where I wanna be
(Darlin’) yeah when you take it real slow
Bridge
All we have is here and now
That’s alright with me
Got time for no regrets
Let’s do it again
Let’s do it again

When You Hold Me
03:57
|
|||
When the lights go lower
And everything feels right
It’s been a long long day now darlin’
But you make it alright
Nobody knows - the places we go
When you hold me - when you hold me
Darlin’ when you hold me
Everything’s alright
Alright, alright, alright
I’m alive - in the moment
Just you and me alone
I’m riding high on this on emotion
In your arms I’m home
Everyone knows, I’m a fool for you
Cos it feels so true
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Everything is alright now
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Say You Will
03:50
|

She kept her heart a sacred place
Like the center of a spark from a fire flame
She didn’t think there was way
To believe in a man or the words he say
Then she saw the heavens rain - rain down
Answering her prayers that day - she says …
I want a love that won’t run out
And if you’re the one, I’ve been dreamin’ bout
The baby just say you will
Keep me close when the nights get colder
Say you will
Be my strength when I need your shoulder
This life cuts through you heart like
An arrow straight through your soul
Baby please say you will - say you will
When she allowed herself to love
There was always a danger of breakin’ up
Cause that’s all that she’s ever known
Love had never had a place in her home
Then she saw the heavens rain - it rained down
Answerin’ her prayer that day - she said …
I want a love that won’t run out
And if you the one, I’ve been dreamin’ bout
Then baby please say you will …
She’s never gonna look away again
She’s always gonna stand and take her turn
She’s never gonna listen when they say
That maybe this is more than you deserved
She’s always gonna stand and take her turn
She’s never gonna listen when they say
She don’t deserve it

Doorway
03:57
|

Tell me what you think you’re hearin’
The devil tappin’ on your door again?
You wear that guilt like a jacket
A gift from your only friend
Maybe you need to feel a little future
Just walk from the past
If you need some help with this redemption
I’ll give you that
And I’ll stand in your doorway
‘Til all your pain is gone
I swear that I forgive you
It’s been too long
It’s been so long
Tell me what you think you’re doin’
You really gonna walk away again?
You’d think that after a lifetime
You’d be so damn tired of sayin’ when
I’m only here because you see me
I’m not here at all
But if you need a ghost for absolution
I’ll take the fall
And i’ll stand in your doorway
‘Til all your fear is gone
Until your heart is quiet
It’s been too long …
What’s the sound it’s footsteps falling
The devil as he walks away from here
Just get some sleep, when you wake up
I’ll still be here

Moth To A Flame
04:44
|
|||
You could have told me baby
That I was never gonna be
The same after you touched me
I should have known it darlin’
But I was just too entranced to see
And all of these nights
And every brand new day
Is proof, pain and simple
That we were meant to stay
But you should have told me baby
That your kiss would be the end of me
How could I see it baby?
When you suddenly appeared
Come that change in the atmosphere.
Temperature's risin’ darlin’
So much heat whenever you come near, so near
And all of this love
In each and every way
Is proof plain and simple
There’ll be no love in vain
You could have told me baby
That your kiss would cast a spell on me
I wasn’t lookin’ baby
But then you, you come along
And your gravity’ just so stong
You’re like a fire darlin’
And I held my hand out too long
And all these new feelings
And every heavy breath
Is proof plain and simple
That you might be the best
But you shoulda told my baby
That your eyes would never let me be … let me be

Your House Is Burnin'
03:57
|
|||
Get up your house is burnin’ down
Somebody needs to fix some things round here
Before it burns down to the ground
Oh get up there ain’t no time to waste
Somebody needs to roll a sleeve up here
And get to work before it’s too late
Too late
Brother to brother and hand to hand
Starting today, I’m gonna say it again
Woman to woman and skin to skin
This is the day that we begin
Take it back, got to try
Cause the whole round world is on fire
See the flames, everywhere
Better raise up your voice if ya dare
Everybody running from place to place
Better stop now or we lose this race
Gotta break it down, gotta break this spell
Dig a little deeper down in your well
Brother to brother and hand to hand
Starting today, I’m gonna say it again
Woman to woman and skin to skin
This is the day that we begin
To get up, break the chain
Make it right, start again
See the flames everywhere
Got to rise on up if you care

Just Another Lesson
03:08
|
|||
Tell me that you’re just frustrated
And you don’t really mean those thing you say
You’re throwin’ words just like a hatchet at a tree
Don’t chop me down today
I guess everybody gets a little leeway
Just not when it makes some others bleed
Do you really throw your love out like a mattress
On the street
When it’s time to leave?
And I know, I should know by now
Sometimes that thing that you fight for
Is gone when you turn around
You might say that it’s all meant to be
But it’s just another lesson to me
Once we were so strong and honest
Then winter came along and took our strength
Soon enough the honest left
Now we’re throwing innuendo
And wondering where our future went
Where it went
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
Say that you’re you’re frustrated
And you don’t really mean those words you say
Or say what you want - it won’t matter
I don’t hear you anyway

Rain Down
04:01
|
|||
Lost my way, in the dark black
Heaven knows, I’d still be there - ‘til this day
Ain’t no grace
In a life long serenade - of this pain
In this place
A familiar bitter taste of contentment - I felt safe
So I prayed
Cause I heard that seasons change - and they
Changed
I’ve been down - done my days with tears and gin
Was bound - by a circumstantial fear within
But now - the waters washed away my sins
Rain down
I escaped, with a locket on a chain
Singing hosana, hosana, hosana
If I’m not safe, you can tell me to my face
I’ll be brave
All I found, all I found was belief
Turns out, it’s all I’ll ever need
|

Put a candle in the window
Cause I feel, I got to move
Oh, I’m gone, gone
I’ll be comin’ home soon
Long as I can see the light
Pack my bag and let’s get movin’
‘Cause I’m bound to drift a while
When I’m gone, gone
You don’t have to worry long
Long as I can see the light
Guess I’ve got that old travellin’ bone
Cause this feelin’, won’t leave me alone
But I won’t, I won’t losin’ my way, no
As long as I can see the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah

Who Will Come For Me
04:38
|
|||
There it goes - running away again
Old man time I guess we should make amends
I was tired before this began
There it goes running
Away again
And as the last light calls I take my place
But as the curtain calls
The question remains
Who will come for me? Who will come for me?
When all my youth is spent - I can’t see where
It went
Who will come for me?
Heaven knows - time can see you bend
We’re just leaves - flowing where the water
Intends
Hands grow old and sun shines gold
As the heart lines deepen
There it goes running away again
Oooooh oooooh oooooh oooooh
