Cold Wind

I know you want to see me crying
You want to see me flying out in a cold, cold wind
I heard you no longer care for me
You want to hurt my feelings and you got your reasons why
Did I treat you so bad?
I've given, given up on winning
Grown tired defending a love we never had
Did I treat you so bad?
Like you're treating me
We could see eye to eye
So easily
What's killing you
Is the same thing killing me
I know you want to see me dying
You want to see me lying out in the drifting snow
Did I treat you so bad like you're treating me?

Becoming

I concede
One day I hold, you'll believe
Go on, let me be
I gotta follow these farfetched dreams
I will come to know
just what I am at the end of the road
It's all vanity
The difference between what is and could be
Such enmity
But what was there ever here between you and me
I will come to know
Just what I am at the end of the road
A long setting sun
Last light reveals just the man I become
I'll come to know...

The Place I'm Going
04:40

Who picks my cards; Who aligns my stars?
I crack my back and I stand up straight; I stand my ground ‘till it becomes my grave
But don’t worry bout me mama and don’t worry bout me dad
The place I’m going, it ain’t so bad
So heat up the oil and dip me in; I ain’t ever turnin back I ain’t ever giving in
I hear my name in the serpent’s mouth; but those who follow don’t ever make it out
But don’t worry bout me mama and don’t worry bout me dad
The place I’m going, it ain’t so bad

Can't Stop

Can't stop till I'm ready to win
Spend my days not trying to sin
I don't believe I'm ready to go
Can't go to sleep till I get that dough
Wondering if I'll ever get there
Damn that woman's got a cold ass stare
I frequent the bar, no reason to change
Damn them blues that I’ve got to tame.
Can't stop
The wheels are good
Decorating sentence
with what we should
Breath slowly focus on the pain
Trying to find the means to be sane, but
People keep talking, words are free
Second sentence will cost yah three.
Gifts are human the present foretold
Life moves fast and I'm getting old
Time keeps moving ever so slow,
At least we still have Rock N' Roll
Can't stop
The wheels are good
Decorating sentence
with what we should

Sweetest Dream
04:06
|
|

When I was a boy I'd sit in the swing
Grandma would come by and she'd talk to me
Say young man listen to me
I'm gonna tell you about this old wedding ring
The sweetest dream of the heart
Hey Grandma I heard your words
And I’m wondering if love is like a flying bird above
Do I have to search high to bring it below
Or do I just wait until one day it comes down on its own?
The sweetest dream
Let's reach out and take hold like we should
We searched high and low for what was good
The sweetest dream
Of the heart

Fool For You
04:17
|
|

|
Pray you wake up in the morning and don't feel this way
Drank too much last night and you got whiskey on your brain
Baby, I've got memories that are driven me insane
Never in my life have I been more aware of my mistakes
Try to write it off
I tried to play it off
Like leaving was an easy thing to do
Fool for you
Honey I'm a fool for loving you like I do
You’re grasping at the breeze when it's pushing past your face
I tried to keep you on the line, but I knew you would not stay
These days I see you and I mostly feel ashamed
And somehow I still find it hard when I hear them speak your name
Try to write it off
I tried to play it off
Like leaving was an easy thing to do
Fool for you
Honey I'm a fool for loving you like I do
Like I do
Steel my mind is all I know to do
And after al the hell that we been through
Fool for you
Honey I'm a fool for loving you like I do
Like I do

As long as I see your face my life will be ok
On the day that we first met my soul shed Light within
All over me, Blue and Green
As long as I’m in this place my mind will stay sane.
Bad luck comes now and then she keeps me right within
All over me, Blue and Green
As long as I am alive my heart gets twice the size.
From the sea to mountain peak she's my world every star I see
All over me, Blue and Green

Three Speeding Tickets
04:17
|
|

It took three speeding tickets to slow me down
The officer he caught me on the outskirts of town
Doing twenty over with expired tags
He asked me honey whatcha runnin way from so fast?
Well Mr. officer that’s a great question and I don’t know what to say
I’ve been running now for 23 years and still can’t seem to escape
So write me a citation it’s fine; I ain't got no fear of dying
Till you lock me away with keys I ain't reducing my speed
I’ll see you in the courtroom at nine
It took three bad nights for me to figure out
What it was my mom was talking about
Looking for something that they hadn’t earned
I know what’s right and I know what I deserve
Please sir keep your hands to yourself; we’ve only just met
I've been running now for 23 years ain't no man caught me yet
So write me a citation it’s fine; I aint got no fear of dying
Till you lock me away with keys I ain't reducing my speed
I’ll see you in the courtroom at nine
It took three long years for me to finally grasp
That you were gone and you weren’t coming back.
The symphony of crickets can still be found
On the beach looking out at the sound
Look down from up above and give me your grace
Just give me 23 more and I’ll come and see your face
So write me a citation it’s fine; I ain't got no fear of dying
Till you lock me away with keys I ain't reducing my speed
I’ll see you in the courtroom at nine

One of a Kind
04:32

I've got a worried mind. Every thought stays with me inside
I'm ever so quite. All the days become night
I'm a hell of a guy. All proceeds end when I die
I'm always right and I'll see ya tonight
No matter what the loss I'll bleed for your cause
I'm one of a kind
I'll be there for you
There's trouble in sight. Every thought becomes a rhyme
I'm ready for a fight. All the lies seem bright
I'll be by your side. A never-ending stream of light
I'm holding tight. With all my might
No matter what the loss, I'll bleed for your cause
I'm one of a kind
I'll be there for you

Fairweather

Just let me think I need time away
Let's not talk about today
I wanna change, I need to change
But Lord I'm afraid
That tomorrow will come and I'll still be the same
I never thought it would end
Never saw you for a fair-weather friend
What to do with the memory of you
I can explain, or I can refrain
Not speak the sound of your name
The words on the page, that look on your face
Says let's not talk about today
For tomorrow will come and we'll go separate ways
I never thought it would end
Never saw you for a fair-weather friend
I never, I have no regrets
Time changes, like clouds rearranging the view
I don’t know what to do
With the memory of you
Even if you wanted to come clean
I can't change the way that I see you now
You can't change the way that you see me
Even if I wanted to be free
I can't chase you from my heart
You're still running through my dreams

Tennessee

I’m leaving
Headed west for Tennessee
These southern shores hold no gold for me
I can't stay, I can't be
I’m gone
I know she's out there somewhere looking for me
I told her I'd return with the falling leaves
I can’t stay, she's waiting on me
I'm coming home
Travel till the dawn
In the morning with the rising of the sun
I'll be with the only one
It's over
This city strife's no kind of life for me
Far from you, winding rivers and tangled trees
I can't sleep if I can't dream
I'm coming home
Travel till the dawn
In the morning with the rising of the sun
I'll be with the only one
