On The Line 03:47
lyrics

Down goes your body I’ll hold you steady this time Never really ready for that which moves the course of your life Then you wake up to find your old life has gone Across the water your new one had begun And you were on the run run run I’ve been having trouble sleeping when you’re gone gone gone Who’d have thought it was you that would right my wrong wrong wrongs I was on the line but I’m okay this time Found all your old letters cut to the core of me Thank God that I changed my ways back in 1983 ‘Cause I remembered who’s protecting me I’ve forgotten shed the pain and grief in me It’s got no hold on me I’ve been having trouble sleeping when you’re gone gone gone Who’d have thought it was you that would right my wrong wrong wrongs I was on the line but I’m okay this time Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh I was on the line I’m okay this time Been having trouble sleeping when you’re gone gone gone Well who’d have thought it was you that would right my wrong wrong wrongs I was on the line I’m okay this time

Eternal Road 02:51
lyrics
buy track
He said he’d always wanted a blonde and blue-eyed girl When he left she was a young soul And it shook the foundation of your world But your hands were made for working And that’s just what you did Head down raised such a strong woman from a scared little kid You couldn’t be more alright so strong over all this time A friend and a shoulder when I want to hold you And you’re still a dreamer You’re such a rock for us still sold out for your cause Over all this time you make it look so light The weight that you hold our heavy load Some things are best left forgotten And some things you’ve got to hold He’ll be so proud of you momma When you meet down that eternal road Our lost love Our lost love Our lost love

Heart Of Stone 02:55
lyrics
buy track
The day you landed the warden turned the key And left you stranded over the Atlantic sea Where’s your momma gone? You used to call her on your cell phone They’ve got a heart of stone you’re a long way from home They’ve got a heart of stone my baby’s not coming home Growing up on the projects you gave what you could get You’ve got all your logic but now you’ve gone and lost your legs Where’s your momma gone? You used to call her on your cell phone They’ve got a heart of stone you’re a long way from home They’ve got a heart of stone my baby’s not coming home Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh They’ve got a heart of stone you’re a long way from home They’ve got a heart of stone my baby’s not coming home They’ve got a heart of stone you’re a long way from home They’ve got a heart of stone my baby’s not coming home

Skylark 03:05
lyrics
buy track
Followed the contours home to lay down my heavy load You know I should’ve known that over time my thoughts would take their toll But after the climb I need to find peace of mind You know things they’ve been looking up it’s got me singing The skylark only calls when it’s climbing Now I depend on grace I got to adjust the pace And now away we go moving along as the river flows Where it leads you know I still don’t know Things they’ve been looking up it’s got me singing The skylark only calls when it’s climbing The road has been a little rough but I’m still moving The skylark only calls when it’s climbing Well I’m still learning to fly The seasons changed like the turning tide Everyday I look to the sky Thanks Micah I think you could be right

The Water 03:28
lyrics
buy track
Sons and daughters would you listen to the sound Running water has got you tied and bound Once forgotten now lapping at your shore Drink the silence it’s coming back for more Before it starts to flow you know The water called you home Touch the bottom it’s what you came here for Can’t be undone once you’re beyond the shore Before it starts to flow you know The water called the water called the water called you home The water called you home The water called you home The water calls you home The water called you home

Another Word For Home 04:56
lyrics
buy track
It was fun another place upon the compass And we’ve come miles on these cheap feet I don’t know where it is or when it’s coming Another place for these dry bones They were over there It was funny another place upon the compass And we’ve come miles on these cheap seats I’m falling apart a little bit around the breeches Another place for these dry bones They were over there You me looking for the missing places When I couldn’t be alone You catch me before I fall to pieces You’re my other word for home Just my other word for home Here it comes another borderline to meet us And we’ve walked miles on these four feet I’m falling apart a little bit around the breeches Another place to call my own They were over there You me looking for the missing places When I couldn’t be alone You catch me before I fall to pieces You’re my other word for home Just my other word for home My other word Just my other word Just my other word

Let Her Go 03:20
lyrics
buy track
If you love her let her go I tried so hard to be a man that takes no further part In any of these games that break your heart But now I want to talk to you I know it’ll do no good for you I just can’t stand it no if I love her I’ll let her go Ooh ooh This time is real I know now what it takes And how you feel so in my time alone I’ll make a deal ‘Cause talking does no good you see to fix what’s going wrong with me I just can’t stand it no if I love her I’ll let her go Oohs x4 Love I’m sorry for hurting you Love I’m sorry for hurting you Love I’m sorry for hurting you Love I’m sorry for hurting you

Sum Of Days 04:24
lyrics
buy track
Leave me walking leave me nothing I’ll make something I can take it slow The world’s still spinning and I’m still learning My head ain’t turning in this space I’m in I won’t wait I won’t hesitate to walk away If this control is here to stay with you It’s okay I’m up for sitting down with anyone Moving on with anyone But I can’t stay in this holding Can’t you see I don’t know what to do? Leave me be my heart's a mystery to anybody Most the time it’s nothing to me my love We’re the sum of days And when we’re gone we’re never coming back to this place Colours slowly fading away my love This day is over never to be lived again Leave me hanging my heart’s still beating I’m still breathing I can take it slow The world’s still spinning and I’m still learning Around and about you there’s only open road I won’t wait I won’t hesitate to walk away If this control is here to stay with you It’s okay you know I’ll batten down with anyone You hang around to spread a little truth I know that you do Well I can’t stay in this holding Can’t you see I don’t know what to do? Leave me be my heart's a mystery to anybody Most the time it’s nothing to me my love We’re the sum of days And when we’re gone we’re never coming back to this place Colours slowly fading away my love This day is over never to be lived again

Will I Ever Learn? 03:20
lyrics
buy track
Strung out low down I’m out of my mind Since I stopped listening to my own advice Oh when will I start listening to myself? I told everybody to take it slow Then jumped head first out of that open window Oh when will I start listening to myself? Everybody been quoting the blues Would somebody anybody clue me what to do Everybody always tell me goodbye Would somebody hold my body ‘fore I break down and cry People they say I got nothing to lose But they can’t see you in my mind turning the screw Oh when will I start listening to myself? Tried so hard to shake you off over all this time You still run through my mind When will I start listening to myself? Oh when will I start listening to myself? Will I ever learn?

For You 03:25
lyrics
buy track
Lonely is how you’re gonna stay if you only ever run away Roaming but you’re not really lost not forgotten by any cost I see you yeah I do I see you All those things that you thought life could give to you But when you stop you see that they’ve run away from you And you didn’t have a clue Wishing you’d found another way when you come home I know you’ll stay Hopeful is how I will remain looking forward to a better day For you yeah I do for you All those things that you thought life could give to you But when you stop you see that they’ve run away from you You didn’t have a clue For you for you

Breeze 03:17
lyrics
buy track
Over the river and the valley deep it came to me I almost missed it like a falling leaf hidden by the tree Money spent heaven sent you right on back to me Across the ocean and the stormy sea it calls to me I almost missed it like a falling leaf caught up on the breeze Money made let’s get away we’ll float out on the breeze I gave away the things I craved they came on back to me I gave away the things I craved they came right on back to me Break of morning with the cold at my feet it calls to me I nearly missed it like a bird in the tree hidden by the leaves Money made the things you saved to come back here for me Opportunity missed opportunity I said missed opportunity I said missed opportunity I said missed opportunity I said missed opportunity I said missed opportunity I said missed

Home 03:28
lyrics
buy track
There were angels waiting for me by your side They came along on this ride but couldn’t get you back home to me My brother was sitting there by your side When the light left your eyes he’ll never get you back home to me Are you proud of your son? Because I’m proud of the war you won The look that was in your eyes face towards the sky I remember waiting and waiting and waiting for you to arise But you were running through that gate with the memories we made Take me back to when we were young and I was my father’s son There were angels waiting for me by your side They came along on this ride but couldn’t get you back home to me My brother was sitting there by your side When the light left your eyes he’ll never get you back home to me My boy don’t you be lonely and thank you for thinking of me ‘Cause you know that I’m willing and able to turn the table For you my dear there’s nothing left to fear I’m home I’m home Home I’m home
