Ain't No Time

Listen up boy, that leavin' train is waiting for you
It seems you've got a ways to go so tighten up those shoes
When will you look yourself in the mirror?
You hear it calling out your name
Change it, change it
Draw that line and make it straight
I say, you gotta find what's closest to your heart
Cause there ain't no time, ain't no time to wait
More of this and less of that, read between the lines
An old man's crying, he wishes he could buy back his time
How will you show your sweet sweet lover that another shouldn't take your place?
Change it, change it
Draw that line and make it straight
I say, you gotta find what's closest to your heart
Cause there ain't no time, ain't no time to wait
Listen up boy, I think it's time you reconcile
Behind all the hurting theres a man and he's been there for a while
What will you tell your dear old mother? She wonders where you've been so long.
Change it, change it
Draw that line and make it straight
I say, you gotta find what's closest to your heart
Cause there ain't no time, ain't no time to wait

Don't Ruin a Good Thing
04:20

Don't ruin a good thing now
What you don't know doesn't hurt you
Don't find a way to make it blue
Don't walk along tonight
Just to make friends with the darkness
It only will take the light from you
I've been given a breath today
The night still takes it all away
I'm the man of my decay
Don't you ruin a good thing
Don't shake it all around
Isn't this all that you wanted?
Ask the heart of yesterday
Take your ear off the ground
Listen to what's there inside you
Verity lives there everyday
I've heard cynically said before
Follow the shadows that hide the floor
But I can't follow it anymore
Don't you ruin a good thing
Don't do it, don't ruin a good thing
Don't you ruin a good thing

I Don't Know You

I forgot this feeling I have
Must have dropped it off along the way
Time of mine you're stealing from my hands
Now it seems I've lost another day
But I do find it strange
Why you don't look the same
When you're walking back through my door
I should know of your face, but it's always replaced
I know you, but I don't know you right now
I forgot this feeling I have
Lost inside the trouble that you are
You tend to mislead me from my head
All I ask is don't take me too far
But I do find it strange
Why you don't sound the same
When you're talking back through my door
I should know of your voice and the words of your choice
I know you, but I don't know you right now

Cat's out of the bag
All the dogs are looking at you
I'm talkin' 'bout the ones in the three piece suits
Everybody's looking at you
The porch goes up in flames
Nobody else to blame
Tell me where you got the match, tell me where you got the gas
Before these dogs bite your ass
You're pretty sly, I can't deny
But now you're gonna need an alibi
Look away, away from me
Cause I ain't got what you wanna be
I'm talking' 'bout
What you keep deep inside
I can't hold 'cause it isn't mine
You gotta let got to catch on and watch for what you step on
You've fallen down, you can't deny
And now you're gonna need an alibi
Rat locked up in a cell
The dogs go too and they eat real well
I ain't talkin' 'bout no 5 course
Me I stay in a cheap motel
Can't go home 'cause it burned like hell
Clean up and sign off, looking like a write off
You're hung to dry so say goodbye
Wasn't gonna fly
Probably should've tried
You probably should've cried for an alibi

Love Letter Goodbye
06:55
|
|||
|
Stranded on a wave in my mind
Planets far away they collide
I don't hear a sound
And the falling rain turns to snow
We began to wane so very long ago
Tears freeze to my eyes
And all the streets that I once knew
They disappear the more I roam
I ought to be on my way before I turn to stone
Consider this my love letter goodbye
Call upon the storm in this reality
We begin to mourn in this fatality
All those years they die
Face toward the wind and decay
Waves come crashing in and lovers wash away
Parting ways to the sea
As I fight this urge to drown
In all the ways of what has been
I toss a bottle stuffed with these four words within
For you to find, my love letter goodbye
And for the one that I once knew
That disappeared most every night
I hope she can find a way to mend what's left inside
And lead the tide
And leave behind
My love letter goodbye
Sail on

Who Am I Gonna Be?
03:06
|
|||
|
I've walked for miles and miles
Put all my time on trial
And I just need some place where I can get myself a little rest
I wanna redefine
This worn out name of mine
Just another thing that I can put to the test
And it's 1 2 3, 1 2 3
Who am I gonna be?
I guess I'll figure it out someday
When I turn old and grey
And have more yesterdays
Will I have the answer to the things that I've been looking for?
Oh dear friend of mine
I've gone outside the lines
Maybe in the by and by I'll wonder no more
And it's 1 2 3, 1 2 3
Who am I gonna be?
I guess I'll figure it out someday

Dear Love of My Life
05:22
|
|||
|
It's 4AM and I hear you leave the bed
Before I wake, these words come to my head
"That's the love that will last you all your life"
I open my eyes and to you I start to write
Dear love of my life
To the one who shaped my heart so right
Tied 'til the end so tight
There's nothing I wouldn't do
Dear love of my life
I'll show you all the ways you belong to me
'Cause I just want you to see
Eternally
The dark morning sky is enough to make me cry
I know I'll see you soon, I'm just glad to share it all with you
And though this time I have to stay behind
The world is ours to see 'til the end of time
When I get back to the bed where me lay last night
A note that reads "I love you forever" sits beneath the light
Written in you're beautiful touch, in the morning dew
Written in the same pen that I wrote to you
Dear love of my life
To the one who shaped my heart so right
Tied 'til the end so tight
There's nothing I wouldn't do
Dear love of my life
I'll show you all the ways you belong to me
'Cause I just want you to see
Eternally
It's 2PM and you're flying over Illinois
I lay inside your bed beside your buttoned corduroy
Not too long and we'll be right here again
The note you left will keep your place 'til then
And I hope the words that I scribbled down
For you to read while out of town
Speak as loud as the love I feel for you
And when I get to feel your hands
So softly on my face again
I don't think there are words that will do
Dear love of my life
To the one who shaped my heart so right
Tied 'til the end so tight
There's nothing I wouldn't do
Dear love of my life
I'll show you all the ways you belong to me
'Cause I just want you to see
Eternally
