Life In The City

Life In The City

Cut it down go put it away
Take an inside look on the outside
Another day

Take time look at the sunshine
Have mine its better on you anyway

Nobodys perfect all the time
But I know you
And you know me
And its alright

Im waking up gonna buy me some shoes
Take a long walk out of the hindsight start anew

Look around maybe buy a new topcoat
Stop moping the rains gonna rain through
Rain through on you
Yes its true that

Nobodys sunny all the time
But I know you and you know me
And its alright

And its your life
And its my life
Its our life in the city

Get a new place out in the hills
Plant a seed Im in need of a break from the fire drill
Repaint where all the paint aint
Get a clean slate and maybe we can buy a thrill
Ill foot that bill
Yes I will cause

Nobodys busy all the time
But I know you
And you know me
And its alright

Answer Me

Answer Me Lyrics

It seems you’re feeling down
You don’t know how long
But you know you don’t like it
Lost in your room

It seems you’re feeling tired
You don’t know what from
One too many parties
Makeup hides the wounds

[Chorus]
Answer me
Giving up won’t get you out
Can’t you hear me
Come and leave this room of doubt
Answer me

It seems you’re feeling scared
You don’t know how come
Hiding in the shadows
Praying for the sun

[Chorus]

It seems you’re feeling old
You don’t know how long
Holding on to memories
Waiting for the song

[Chorus]

Angel Without Wings

Angel Without Wings

We started out so brand new darling
But now it seems that nothing can change your mind
I have seen your city lights
But have you seen my country skies

Watch the world go twirling by

And perhaps it’s common fears
Or uncommon hearts
That makes us insincere
And torn apart

But when will I learn
Love is just my fantasy disguised

[Chorus]
An angel without wings can hardly fly
And love without a dream it will not survive

But now I can see
I am lucky just to have a heart
Discovery will knock you on your knees
And lonely tears can only hope to freeze
Yeah, they’ll freeze and fall on down

And so our sun is sinking low
And your spirit’s close behind
But there’s something you should know now
That you’re on my mind

But where are you now
When will you share your winter nights

[Chorus]

No it won’t survive

The Man Who Would Be Santa

The Man Who Would Be Santa Lyrics

And the man who would be Santa slips into the room
And the hour of daylight’s yet to come but he hopes they don’t wake too soon
All the presents wrapped in paper and tied with a bow
The children sleep upstairs and Santa works below
And he can hear the children dreaming

[Chorus]
And he says
All I want is for you to have
A life you love and live
Take from me all I have to give
Because you are in my heart

And the man who would be Santa tells his son to write
And to call him if he needs him in the middle of the night
Don’t you worry don’t you cry now you’ll do just fine
Your mother and I love you
We think about you all the time
And he can see the train is leaving

[Chorus]

Now the old man sits and tells of days when time stood still
The hours always seem to fade but the memory never will
All the love that you gave me
All the dreams in the night
And I just want to thank you while the day’s still light
But I can see the sun is setting

[Chorus]

Famous

Famous Lyrics

Oh I know
That things are gonna change
The only thing for certain
Is that nothing stays the same
But all I want
Is love from you
Give me your hand
To hold on to
And if tears fill your eyes
Listen to my music it’s no surprise

[Chorus]
I don’t want to be famous in life
I don’t want to be famous in the world
I just want to be famous
Famous
I want to be famous in your heart

Oh I know
The wind is gonna blow
And in the winter
There’s sure to be snow
But with the warmth of your smile
And the sun of your face
Shine on me in the darkness
With your love and grace
And if time hides my eyes
Listen to my music and recognize

[Chorus]

And if time hides my eyes
Listen to my music
Listen to my music and recognize

[Chorus]

Fragments

Fragments Lyrics

Hold my thoughts I’m at an impasse
Past the place I stopped before
The sweeper’s sweeping fragments
Of my head out the door

And the ice it burns upon my forehead
The calmness starts to scream
Must I always hold the upright
When my soul longs to dream

[Chorus:]
Is it too much to find an answer
Is it too much to hold you close
Is it too much to find a reason
Is it too much to free my soul
From self control

I can’t get it any better
I always end up killing time
Time for love and time for living
Time to find what’s really mine

[Chorus Twice]

And I know you’re always waiting for me
You take me far away
And I know you’re holding me
And it’s better now . . .
And it’s better now . . .
And it’s better now . . .

Wash Away

Wash Away Lyrics

An old man lying by the road
Black is night
Hes got his finger on the trigger
An easy target in sight
Hes got no future, no family tree
Hes got a three dollar bottle
And he drinks till he cant see
All night, all night…..

A young girl waiting on a line
Eight a.m., shes got a six month old burden
Willpowers withering thin
An unwed mother beaten by her trade
Each week her welfare reminds her
Of mistakes she never made
Oh no…..

[Chorus]
Now what has that to say about tomorrow
What has that to show for today
Noah thought to build an ark
Before the heavens washed it all away
Away…

A baby crying through a dream
An afterthought
Mother is seething for pleasure
After the poison is bought
His eyes are tainted, staggered is his breath
Oh god, hes addicted
Addicted to death
Oh, no…

[Chorus]

Heart In Hand

Heart In Hand Lyrics

I know it’s been a long road
To get these towns behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you’re there for me

Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos

[Chorus]
Are you waiting for
Heart in hand
Woman and man
See me where I stand I am
Heart
Heart in hand

These fields may hold a hunting ground
But the wolves are far behind me and I
Hear the howls and the distant sound
Of the messengers lost at sea

Into the morning light
Followed by madness
Reach through the empty fight
Searching through sadness

[Chorus]

I know it’s been a long road
To get these fears behind me and I
Will gladly reap what we may sow I am
There for you and you’re there for me

Pictures and photographs
Memories and windows
Goodbyes and epitaphs
Heartbeats and hellos

[Chorus]
