How do you feel about being alone It’s a long road to walk by yourself What makes you think that you don’t need love It’s a cold world, but we could warm it up So I say wait, don’t walk away I haven’t yet begun to share my heart And I say please, let me speak I’ve got a story you would love to hear What makes you think that I’m not the one Just look back on the past we’ve had Consider laughter, consider good times Those are the things that will be hard to find So I say wait, don’t walk away I haven’t yet begun to share my heart And I say please, let me speak I’ve got a story you would love to hear

Greater Good 03:30
There’s a greater good just beyond me And there’s a lesser evil at my side I hear an angel’s harp playing sweetly That song grows louder over time Which truth is true? I’ve struggled through some questions But your faithfulness extends beyond my worth Black clouds, they shroud this path with wickedness But the sun, it shines right through Oh and how I’d love to be walking at a perfect pace If only that dark devil’d leave me be Leave me be Well I mustn’t sit here waiting for a miracle Lord knows I’ve got to show some desire Well I’ve tried to live my life by my own strength And I found out submission is my only hope Oh and how I’d love to be walking at a perfect pace If only that dark devil’d leave me be And temptation is a grinding stone wearing on my soul Oh mercy Lord, have mercy on me Oh mercy Lord, have mercy on me On me

Three Cheers 04:00
Hear ye that sound? It’s a train of improbable things Next stop my friend is right where you stand Just step up on board and you’ll see Three cheers once the whistle blows As it’s clearing the way for the bold In earnest you seek what’s troubling your soul And once you find it you’ll be searching no more Fear not for the Lord will provide all the strength that you need Don’t compromise a single step in your stride Brace yourself we’re picking up speed Hold tight while the rails sing and we’re making our way toward the goal Fight your fight with every breath of your life Don’t look down, keep moving forward Triumphant train. Improbable things Only for those who do believe

Losing Game 04:28
You went ahead and ripped me up from the roots And I fell hard when you put me down Evil girl, I shoulda never asked you to come around Now that your damage here is done You just gonna up and leave town When I said I was in love, it was the truth And I believed that you loved me too Oh, what a stupid boy I was For becoming your little fool But now I just sit here thinking to myself How it’s all gonna come back around to you It’s a losing game we play, us foolish lovers Yet we insist on playin it again, and again, and again Oh, just wasting time with somebody Who’s only gonna hurt you in the end Well either we don’t mind losing Or we just don’t know what true loving is
5.
If I were just a little more foolish I’d follow you to Texas And I, I’d try to win your love It took you one day to steal my heart And tomorrow you’ll be gone But I, I can’t go to Texas… California is my home And there’s five, five good reasons I cant chase you It’s too far from family There’s no mountains there The waves are too small And I don’t dance square And there’s one more reason why I’ve got to stick around You got that free spirit woman, and I’d hate to tie you down You gat that free spirit mama, and I’d hate to tie you down It took you one day to steal my heart And tomorrow you’ll be gone But when you think of California Just know you’re always welcome When you think of California Just know you’re always welcome
6.
If only I could hold my breath longer, I would stay under water til my troubles were gone Then I would come up to the surface, take a look at this earth and realize what went wrong Wouldn’t it be nice to have something that would give comfort in the time of your pain Then you wouldn’t have to rely on someone else’s advice You could just keep on living in your dream Oh but it’s not that easy, folks it’s plain to see that there’s no simple way around Yes the cards were dealt no matter how you felt about playin the game So when the hard times come, you’ve just got to stand strong Don’t let temptation win your heart It’s the honest man who’s gonna make a stand no matter what the cost Imagine if our lives were all perfect, not a single disturbance or a tragic event Everything would go real smooth, just like a pleasurable cruise without a bump or a bend Sure that would be awfully convenient, but then what is the meaning for the lives that we spend We’ve got to persevere through the trials and tear and find our hope in the end Because it’s not that easy, folks it’s plain to see that there’s no simple way around Yes the cards were dealt no matter how you felt about playin the game So when the hard times come, you’ve just got to stand strong Don’t let temptation win your heart And that’s what sets the chosen apart Because it’s not that easy, folks it’s plain to see that there’s no simple way around Yes the cards were dealt no matter how you felt about playin the game

March On 03:06
All I ever got from you was rocks in my pockets, dirt in my shoes Now I’ve got these roadside blues What have I got left to do but march on March on, march on I gave you my love, but you took my soul Now I’m standing out in the cold What have I got left to do but march on March on, march on March on, march on March on, march on You wont see me no more (no more) 8x
8.
Out that door, over the mountains, use my legs Get me far from this place You know you can’t keep me here Oh, I’m gonna see the world You know you can’t keep me here Don’t look back, head to the ocean Feel that breeze, feel it with my soul Gonna catch that dream of mine Oh, on the horizon Gonna catch that dream of mine That’s right Well I’m free from misery I’m free from misery Gonna live in peace and give praise to my king Oh, I’m free from misery I’m free from misery Gonna live in peace and give praise to my king I’m free from misery Oh Lord I’m free, oh Lord I’m free from misery Gonna live in peace and give praise to my king

Dreams Awake 04:48
Well I’ve seen those things that one could only see in dreams And I’ve dreamt those dream that one could only dream outside of sleep And tampered minds, they tell me to come down from The very clouds I sit upon But they can’t see me from there And they don’t understand my thoughts As much as they wish they could But I’ve got nothing to fear Because I know there are others here Who feel the same as me And tainted minds, they tell me to come down from The very clouds I sit upon But they can’t hear me from there And they don’t recognize my doubts As well as they think they do But I’ve got nothing to fear Because I know there are others here Who feel the same as me So brothers, sisters let us march Let us show the world our hearts With faith and humility Yes, set your sails put out to sea Rest your fears and come with me We’ll get an eternal view And we have seen those things That one could only see in dreams
10.
Take good care of yourself Don’t waste your time being foolish And don’t you say that it’s not my concern You’re a brother to me, same as blood Make good use of your days Life is too short to live for yourself So don’t you play that game of testing fate Keep in mind, there are those who love you I only fear death if it’s you who’s dying I’m not prepared to bear that loss I couldn’t care less about the number of my years I’d give you my life with a peaceful thought Won’t you try and understand This is true, it’s as real as it gets You’ve had your fill, yet you’re not satisfied Enough is enough of the hard way Stubborn man, won’t you listen to a friend Trying desperately to grab your hand And keep you from a tragic end Stubborn man, stubborn man In agony, I make this plea I only fear death if it’s you who’s dying I’m not prepared to bear that loss I couldn’t care less about the number of my years I’d give you my life with a peaceful thought If I had a choice at all I’d give you my life with a peaceful thought If I ever had to choose You know I’d give my life for you I’d give you my life with a peaceful thought
