Not To Feel Alone

You might think that my intentions untrue
That what I really want don't have to come from you
I just wanna make this fact well known
The thing I really want is not to feel alone
I painted pretty pictures for you when we were kids
And some of my promises weren't quite what I said
Why I act this way ain't from a heart of stone
The thing I really want is not to feel alone
Give me truth dressed as lies
Make me everything that you despise
Give me love, Give me light
Come on baby keep on looking in my eyes
It's getting late the room's cleared out
I don't know if you got anymore doubt
Come on babe can't you see where we're going
The thing I really want is not to feel alone
Not to feel alone.....

Home To Me

I watched you disappear alone into the night
And all my secret fears played out behind my eyes
Why'd you have to go and do that for
Now I can't see you anymore
I thought that you would be the woman of my dreams
I thought that yours could be the heart that made mine beat
The world is turning, I can hardly sleep
The road is over, this kind of love it don't come cheap
So hold on to me
It might not be quite the way that it seems
And if it plays out like an old movie scene
Then
You'll come home to me
Hold on to me
It might not be quite the way that it seems
And if it plays out like an old movie scene
Then
You'll come home to me

I've Been Dreaming

Another Time Another place
Another hero gone to waste
So many roads So many days
So many chances for paths to stray
I've been dreaming for a while
Just once more can I see you smile
Cause it's for you I cry
and it's for you I'd die
Desert town Stars all out
We said goodbye and your tail lights fade
Cut the scene exit stage
If I write you in will you come back my way
I've been dreaming for a while
Just once more I wanna see you smile
Cause it's for you i cry
And it's for you I'd die
Another time Another place
Another hero gone to waste

Yo Ho Ho
05:26
|

This train leaves in the evening
Barking dogs and rain
And I won't miss a single thing As it's pulling away
Some men want fame and fortune
Something to have and to hold
Some men count the hours of life
Wasted growing old
But me I just want that feeling
Yeah that old yo ho ho
Put my fate with the clouds and the wind
And the places unknown
Well I had me a beauty
The fairest girl around
She came in like a hurricane
with them fiery eyes of brown
Summer turned to fall and then
She was nowhere to be found
I touched the stars for a moment
Came crashing right back down
But I still got that feeling.....
Some things seem so familiar
Even the first time around
I could swear that I've been here before
I just can't place it now
So I go to some basement bar
Find me a woman for the night
Anyway I can't stick around
Got an early morning flight
And I've still got that feeling.....

All This Time
05:34
|

So long Walking down the road
Don't know where I started or where I was gonna go
Since I met you I ain't been the same
Sometimes I wish I could forget your face and name
Too much cheap whiskey another fight
The perfect end to this vacant lonely night
But hey what's a man supposed to do
When He's ran out of anything to lose
Back when I started out
Burning bright I had it all figured out
Took a wrong step or two I suppose
Left me wandering with this threadbare soul
Past the landmarks of my youth
And the flaws in justices halls of truth
But it's not so bad I guess
Cause without you babe well everything's a mess
All this time
All this time goes by
Was the fault in the stars or was it mine
Been around the world and back
took a ride in a cadillac
Had some hard luck and some fortune too
Don't mean nothing if I'm not standing next to you
Looking up through this hotel window light
I got the moon right in my sight
I wonder where you are tonight
Under this great big sky
All this time
All this time goes by
Was the fault in the stars or was it mine

Remember Best
05:03
|

The sunlight was falling
Shadows playing tricks on the hill
In the dream like when we went walking
And the city was standing still
But we were just kids then
Nothing better to do
Than seek out our own part
And make something new
We used to stay up laughing as the nights went slowly by
We watched the trains go rolling under full moon light
We used to believe our dreams really might come true
Now I'm on the road alone with a memory of you
When We were younger we had a way
There was a place where we got lost in the sun
Those old days are fading
like pictures on a window sill
What once hung on a gallery wall
Is rolling down the hill
Some friends they come and go
Some disappear
Some friends they walk beside you
In your moment of fear
I'll always remember best
Not having a care
I wonder where you are now
And what you're doing there
I was sitting on my porch
looking at the beyond
When I heard the radio playing
One of our favorite songs
Something about searching
And me and you
Living in the prime of life
but we never knew
We were running down the road
Destiny in our eyes
Now we've gotten past the time
For the long goodbyes
I couldn't sit and wait
For my life to begin
I hope I see you well again
My old friend

Soft Of Your Arm
03:43
|

In you came and I'm thinking 'bout
How it's been so long since I've been without
And All these things that I've come to miss
Something new must be born of this
I planted a kiss in the soft of your arm
Now I can't let nothing do you no harm
You opened up and let me in
Now I can't forget the touch of your skin
What takes my time escapes the crime
And I've been walking a straightened line
I can't repent where I strayed and went
Til this fuel I am starts to burn again
I planted a kiss in the soft of you arm
And I can't let nothing pass me by
I hear the rain as it falls down
It's been too long since you've been around
Look at me just as I am
Ain't I enough to call me your man aw no
I planted a kiss in the soft of your arm
Now I can't let nothing do you no harm
You opened up and let me in
And I can't forget the touch of your skin

Sometimes you feel broken
And love ain't enough
You feel like a stranger to yourself
And all that you've become
Life can be funny
Play tricks on your eye
thought you had it all together
Now you're in some kind of disguise
Some dreams they pass
Never meant to last
You had it all
Until you cracked
So take comfort where you can
One day the road will end
Everyday it's the same thing
Marching one into the next
And you can't help but feeling
How the hell did it come to this
THere's a knock at your door
You don't dare to face
And the city's just a dyin' thing
You can't escape
Some dreams they pass
Never meant to last
You had it all
Until you cracked
So take comfort where you can
One day the road will end
