World That Lasts Forever
03:21
|

There's a place where lovers go
By the sea
And if you try
You could learn to believe
Another time
Another life
Where only love will satisfy
Oh take me there
Where we long to fare
Is there a world that lasts forever?
A world that last forever
Is there a world that lasts forever?
Past the lonely grips of earth
And of time
Past the laws of our world
And our kind
Life goes by
And I wonder why
Heaven lies within our mind
Oh take me there
Where we long to fare
Is there a world that lasts forever?
A world that lasts forever
Is there a world that lasts forever?
Oh take me there
Where we long to fare
Is there a world that lasts forever?
A world that lasts forever
Is there a world that lasts forever?

Safe And Sound Hotel

I’m feeling fine
Finally alone
Biding my time
All on my own
Here at the Safe And Sound Hotel
Nothing to see
Nothing to do
Spending my day
Dreaming of you
Wish you were here
Here in my arms
I wanted you to be happy
So I said goodbye
Softly sung
Lost as love
In the night
I’m feeling fine
Finally alone
Biding my time
All on my own
Here at the Safe And Sound Hotel
Nothing to see
Nothing to do
Spending my day
Dreaming of you
Wish you were here
Here in my arms
I wanted you to be happy
So I said goodbye
Softly sung
Lost as love
In the night
Softly sung
Lost as love
In the night

Goin' Home Real Soon
03:29
|

Goin’ home real soon
Yeah, I gotta get out
See, there’s something more to life
Than living in this town
Gonna find me a girl
Cause I need to be free
I hope there’s a second chance
For a broken man like me
And if you had a lover
Like some will do
I’ll tell you, my dear
I’ve had a few
But if you wanna try
I’d give you my life
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
'Til I die
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
I used to pray to God
So I wouldn’t cuss
But I found my stop too late
And took a different bus
Now I sit by the road
A lone man to my left
His stop never brought him home
I know he wants to impress
And if you had a lover
Like some will do
I’ll to you right now
I’ve had a few
But if you wanna try
I’d give you my life
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
'Til I die
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
But if you wanna try
I’d give you my life
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
'Til I die
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours
Honeypie
I know it ain’t much
But I’m yours

Lullabye
02:02
|
|||
As you know by now
You’ll always be my girl
Always have my world
In your eyes
But maybe it takes time to recognize
It’s all for you
My lullabye
Remember when you left my life
So full of hate
You broke my faith
Right in two
But maybe I’m the one who broke it too
It’s all for you
My lullabye
There will come a day
But never will they take her love away
Did I mean nothing to you?
Whether or not you want me to
Did I mean nothing to you?
Heaven knows why love
Can be your story’s test
You try your best
To be wise
So now I look to you with kinder eyes
It’s all for you
My lullabye
It’s all for you
It’s all for you
It’s all for you
My lullabye

Young To Old
03:17
|

Hold till the seam comes undone
Hold like a body for warmth
You swallow your vows
As the angry man shouts
You’ll never see her again
You’ve taken your share of your bruises
You’ve held onto limbs as your own
Those buried below
And the wholesome widow
Long for the past winter’s snow
Young to old
When a father breaks the mold
I see the love that you gave
I see the scars on your knuckles
Are swollen and callused away
But your heart is strong
As the river runs long
From the mountain that drifts
To the sea
They say the old do grow weary
And set as an oak in their ways
So while I am young
I’ll follow the sun
And gather the wisdom before me
Young to old
When a father breaks the mold
I see the love that you gave
Young to old
When a father breaks the mold
I see the love that you gave
We all confront this enigma
A choice that’s as clear as the day
So follow your soul
Let the truth be told
And never look back in envy
No, never look back in envy

Words they fade away
A melody begins to take
Space beyond a time
When all you had was love
On your mind
You’re as free as the sunshine
Oh am I
Caught up in your shadow?
Harrowed by your love?
Oh tell me
Why’d you ever leave me?
Leave me on my own?
I’ll stay here
Grace will follow footsteps
Lead you back to me
Sure as love
Shapes eternity
I’ll hide you where
No one dares to go

The Way I Dream
03:08
|
|||
You’re talking in your sleep
Tell me of your dreams
There’s a world inside your head
And it’s lovely
I can’t seem to sing
For the pressure that it brings
There’s a world inside my head
But it’s lonely
Hey love
Won’t you let me know
Do you dream the way I dream?
Do you dream the way I dream?
I wonder where we’ll go
All the things we’ll come to know
There’s an ideal in my head
And it’s lovely
I’ll let it slip away
I’ll dream another day
There’s an ideal in my head
But it’s lonely
Hey love
Won’t you let me know
Do you dream the way I dream?
Do you dream the way I dream?
Oh, to rest in the good
Tell me love if you would
Would you follow me?
Would you follow me?
Hey love
Won’t you let me know
Do you dream the way I dream?
Do you dream the way I dream?
Do you?

Two Wolves
03:01
|
|||
Father tells
his son with love
Of a tale
From above
Two Wolves
That live inside
Which wolf wins?
The dark or light?
And if we only knew the answers
And the will of the wolves
Father sighs
Wise to life
Oh, he glows
True and right
Takes his time
And tells his seed
Which wolf wins?
The one you feed
And if we only knew the answers
Faith - Pride
Hope - Lies
Truth - Greed
Peace - The battle for the soul
Vain - Joy
Guilt - Kindness
Hate - Love
Sorrow - The will and the wolves
What’s the point of all the yesterdays?

Do You Ever Wonder?
04:49
|
|||
Remember the world
We painted in the darkness
Counting the days
I could hardly wait
You skipped school
Just so you could do me
Told me you loved me so
It hurt
Did you ever love
Quite like we loved?
Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever wonder?
The morning you cried
You looked just like an angel
Wish I coulda dragged you
To that cab
Now I look back
Yeah, I read your letters
As long as I live
You will never die
Did you ever love
Quite like we loved?
Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever wonder?
We were just kids then
But do you ever miss them?
We were just kids then
Did you ever love
Quite like we loved?
Do you ever wonder?
Do you ever wonder?
Yeah, do you ever wonder?
Yeah, do you ever wonder?
Yeah, do you ever wonder?

When the world
When the world
When the world is worn
And the body’s gone
And the war is lost
And her love is numb
And the souls you dared
For the ones you cared
They will leave you still
They will love you still
All your loss descends
All you life condensed
You will hear a song
The wave, she rises
The bridge, she falls
While all her melody
Surrounds us all
We’ll know it’s over
We’ll smile and cry
A life in loving time
A song for all
