By You Now 05:52
That time in San Francisco Where I’d get to know your name That time in sweet Arizona Where we’d go to escape the rain After the fog, after the sunshine Our trip unraveled on its own Now all our memories they come together And they won’t leave me alone Tell me, will we have our time again Tell me, will we count the nights till we’re only Just a faded light from the past After the fog, after the sunshine Our summer lovin’ takes a fall And through the weather we’d have each other But now we don’t have much at all Tell me, will we have our time again Tell me, will we count the nights till we’re only Just a faded light from the past Tell me, will we sit and smile again Holding hands across the table like always Like the space between us won’t last I wish that I could be by you now I wish that I could be your good morning call I wish that I could be by you now I wish that we could sit side by side on a hill outside this lonely town Peering down and around at the crowds Feeling glad I’ve got you with me here and now Here and now I wish that I could be by you now I wish that you could see why I’m holdin’ on I wish that I could be by you now I wish that we could walk hand in hand changing all our plans As the sun goes down As the evening wind carries off all hint of the here and now Here and now I wish that I could be by you now I wish that I could be by you now

There were days you felt strong There were moments you held on But now you see, it‘s too hard to breathe You’ve got to move along There were nights where you tried To look up, but you cried Your way home, for those days long gone And now you’ll go alone May you hope, may you heed May the roads set you free Moving you, like they always do Though now it’s hard to see May you fall, may you fly May your faith give you light Through the night, dark as devil’s eyes The sun will be a sight There are days of regret There’s an ache you won’t forget You look back with your baggage packed You’re jaded but you’ve left There are nights painted blue Missing love you once knew Your eyes wide in your bed at night You pray you’ll make it through May you hope, may you heed May the roads set you free Moving you, like they always do Though now it’s hard to see May you fall, may you fly May your faith give you light Through the night, dark as devil’s eyes The sun will be a sight So go on, go on, go on young soul Go on, go on, go on young soul Go on, go on young soul Go on So go on, go on, go on young soul Go on, go on, go on young soul Go on, go on young soul Go on May you hope, may you heed May the roads set you free Moving you, like they always do Though now it’s hard to see May you fall, may you fly May your faith give you light Through the night, dark as devil’s eyes The sun will be a sight I said the sun will be a sight young soul The sun will be a sight young soul Go on, go on young soul Go on I said the sun will be a sight young soul The sun will be a sight young soul Go on, go on young soul Go on

Sad eyes, soft smile, worlds away I felt your longing for the day That you’d fly off and leave your friends behind I promise once, I promised twice That we’d run off before your flight But that’s all lies ‘cause now you’re on your way Sweet love Come find me sometime Come remind me you were mine Wish I could make you stay I know you’ve moved on from here But I feel you with me right now I still hear your voice, it’s clear Close my eyes and see you, somehow Don’t you know that you were my love? Don’t you know that you were my love? But now you’re gone, gone for long You’ve made it home between the sky and sun I wish you well, I wish you right But I really wish I could hold you tight But time is blind to all we wish we could do Sweet love Come visit sometime When it’s warm and you’re feeling right Wish you’d hadn’t gone away I know you’ve moved on from here But I feel you with me right now I still hear your voice, it’s clear Close my eyes and see you, somehow Don’t you know that you were my love? Don’t you know that you were my love? But now you’re gone, gone for long Can you feel my love from here? Can you hear me calling out loud? Do my words ring in your ears? Do you think of me once in a while? Don’t you know that we were the world? Don’t you know that you were my world? But now you’re gone, gone for long Don’t you know that we were the world? Don’t you know that you were my world? But now you’re home between the sky and sun

You saw my youth and you pulled it aside “Get in,” you told me, “let’s take a drive” And it was raining, pouring, storming outside But you and I babe, we’re down for the ride So we drove on and we drove fast And we drove with a thrill we knew we could never outlast My hand on your shoulder, your foot on the gas Just you and I babe, letting time fly past First you came and then you went With booze and fights and words not meant But after all, it was time well spent It’s you and I babe, in the end And first you came and then you’d go You’d hide your face and hit the road But after all, it was all that I know It’s you and I babe, in the end You and I…babe Like the fresh breath of winter brushing your skin I imagine your face and it stings from within So come back to me, won’t you? Come find your old friend I thought I had found you, but I lost you instead First you came and then you went With booze and fights and words not meant But after all, it was time well spent It’s you and I babe, in the end And first you came and then you’d go You’d hide your face and hit the road But after all, it was all that I know It’s you and I babe, in the end And first you came and then you’d go You’d hide your face and hit the road But after all, it was all that I know It’s you and I babe, in the end You and I You and I…babe Be well old friend, be well Be well old friend, be well Be well old friend, be well Be well old friend, be well

Melody Man, you sing me to life every night that you can You know I’ll be gone when your song finally ends Then I’ll sing goodbye to you Gamblin’ Man, you got me alone, a rare card for those hands You’re goin’ all in and you’re no winning man But I’ll blow the dice for you For once, can you please all of me darling? For once, grace me with faith and belonging For once, promise more than your sweet nothings Can you be all I need? Or am I too much woman Am I too much woman Am I too much woman for you? Mystery Man, you hide from the light everytime I draw in Avoiding my eyes and evading all sin But I’ll close my eyes for you For once, can you please all of me darling? For once, grace me with faith and belonging For once, promise more than your sweet nothings Can you be all I need? For once, can you please all of me darling? For once, hold me till I can feel something For once, give all you’ve got or give nothing Can you be all I need? Or am I too much woman Am I too much woman Am I too much woman Can you be all I need? Am I too much woman Am I too much woman Am I too much woman for you?

I breathe you in, you breathe me out Night after night We heaved until our lungs gave out Time after time Oh my, oh my You’d think we’d be tired Oh my, oh why What once, was such innocent fun Has turned around and gone the other way I love you, but I don’t love you like I used to I want you, but I don’t want you like I used to anymore No, it’s not the same old love as before As before I see you, but I don’t see you like I used to I need you, but I don’t need you like I used to anymore No, it’s not the same young love as before As before You call me up, you call me home Day after day Am I awake? Am I alone? You know what I’ll say Oh my, oh my How time works its way Oh my, oh why What once, was such innocent fun Was thrown around and lost along the way I love you, but I don’t love you like I used to I want you, but I don’t want you like I used to anymore No, it’s not the same old love as before As before I see you, but I don’t see you like I used to I need you, but I don’t need you like I used to anymore No, it’s not the same old love as before As before

Missing You 04:31
There you go There you go I leave you all alone There you go There you go I leave you all alone If I see you out at the store buying more time alone Would you say hi? Or would you turn around, leave me in the crowd? If you caught a glance of me out on my own walking home Would you stop fast? Or would you hide your eyes and drive out of sight? Please, please Next time please don’t... Don’t stop, don’t blink, just ask how I’m doin’ Do you think, do you feel I forgot about you? Can you try, can you find, can you look in the mirror? Can you see little pieces of me still in you? Don’t laugh, don’t lie, don’t act like it’s over Don’t tell me I need to move on too Can you try, can you find that same heavy feeling? Do you know that you got me missing you? If I see you out with a lady real late How will I escape the pain? Will my face go white growing numb all while You, hold my gaze I can hear your thoughts cryin’ oh what a shame While we try and hide what you can’t deny Please, please Next time please don’t Don’t stop, don’t blink, just ask how I’m doin’ Do you think, do you feel I forgot about you? Can you try, can you find, can you look in the mirror? Can you see little pieces of me still in you? Don’t laugh, don’t lie, don’t act like it’s over Don’t tell me I need to move on too Can you try, can you find that same heavy feeling? Do you know that you got me missing you? Don’t stop, don’t blink, just ask how I’m doin’ Do you think, do you feel I forgot about you? Can you try, can you find, can you look in the mirror? Can you see little pieces of me still in you? Don’t laugh, don’t lie, don’t act like it’s over Don’t tell me I need to move on too Can you try, can you find that same heavy feeling? Do you know that you got me missing you? There you go There you go I leave you all alone There you go There you go I leave you all alone

Heaven or heartbreak It’s at you again Now you’re looking both ways Knowing that you can’t win ‘Cause no way is better Than the road you came in So heaven or heartbreak Got you choosin again Heaven or heartbreak How will you know what’s right? With all of your mistakes Only you can decide If you can save it If you can keep it alive Is it heaven or heartbreak That you want on your side Is it heaven or heartbreak That you want on your side So can we try, try just a little harder? Or should we go on searching for our long lost peace? Will the fire keep burning? Will we get tired of hurting? Can we try to be fair We try and be good, oh please Can we try and be fair We try to be good, for me Or is this over? Is this over? Heaven or heartbreak Where there’s only one end Will you hold them closely Or be strangers again And though you know better You know you’ll probably cave in Is it heaven or heartbreak That’ll pull you back in Is it heaven or heartbreak That you know you can’t win So can we try, try just a little harder? Or should we go on searching for our long lost peace? Will the fire keep burning when we get tired of hurting? Can we try to be fair We try and be good, oh please So can we try, try just a little harder? Or should we go on searching for our long lost peace? Will the fire keep burning when we get tired of hurting? Can we try to be fair We try and be good, oh please Can we try and be fair We try and be good, for me At the end of the road Two lovers too lonesome to leave So is this over? Is this over? Heaven or heartbreak Heaven or heartbreak Heaven or heartbreak Heaven or heartbreak

You know I’m with you here and now You know I’m here for safety ‘Cause the devil’s trapped you in his house And you can’t escape the feeling Don’t lead me down this road right now It’s made of glass, it’s a mystery It's shattering with every mile And you know, you’ll cut right through me Highways of glass, speeding fast They barely leave you breathing ‘Cause any stone or unknown Could break the road that’s leading us along Shall we go on? Please don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways So will we make it home tonight Or is this road deceiving Will our smiles by day be tears by night On this highway meant for healing Highways of glass, speeding fast They barely leave you breathing ‘Cause any stone or unknown Could break the road that’s leading us along Shall we go on? Please don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Take me back Take me home Are we too far out? Are we too far gone? Please don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways Don’t drive me drive me down, glass highways

He rode off alone again, head resting on the glass He escapes the world in his white caddy from the past He’s running the lights ‘cause he’s run out of time And now he needs a fix He’s greeting the signs, he’s hugging the lines And they calm him down real quick He rode off away again you asked if he’d return He told you he loved you when he knew you’d later learn You’re out of his mind, you’re out of his life And you’d best be moving on And when you won’t know he’ll get up and go ‘Cause he craves life on the open road He can’t break any hearts anymore ‘Cause he can’t promise he’ll stay very long And he won’t feel all the pain in goodbyes And he won’t taste all the joys in this life So now he’s found a true friend in the stars For now he’s traded true love for his car And though he wishes he weren’t alone He’s right at home on the open road You make love for days or more before he packs his things “So what are you living for?” you ask him as he leaves You talk to the stars, you sing to your car But who dreams of you at night? He looks in your eyes, he paused for a while Then he chose life on the open road He can’t break any hearts anymore ‘Cause he can’t promise he’ll stay very long And he won’t feel all the pain in goodbyes And he won’t taste all the joys in this life So now he’s found a true friend in the stars For now he’s traded true love for his car And though he wishes he weren’t alone He’s right at home on the open road He’s right at home on the open road He’s right at home on the open road
