We've done our cold time, you and I Fought off the raging of this norther sky And heaven knows I wanna compare the ocean to your eyes Baby, let's fly
Doin' hard time, day to day Huddled beneath this winter sun all frozen grey You lose your freedom while you watch the season slip away But not today
Livin' in the darkness, baby Comin' all undone Been a cruel December, now we're prayin' for the sun By the time the storm rolls in, we could be long gone Baby, let's get lost 'til the days get long Just you and I
Frost on the outside brings a chill within Seems like we hide our hearts away when the days get dim Let's shake it off, let's shake it up We're not the kind who just give in So let's begin
Livin' in the darkness, baby Comin' all undone Been a cruel December, now we're prayin' for the sun By the time the storm rolls in, we could be long gone Baby, let's get lost 'til the days get long Just you and I
Voices in your head say stay I can hear them too But those doubts'll fade away In our room with a view
There's a sweet breeze blowin' somewhere, baby All you gotta do Is tell me that it's time to go And I'll be there with you
Livin' in the darkness, baby Comin' all undone Been a cruel December, now we're prayin' for the sun By the time the storm rolls in, we could be long gone Baby, let's get lost 'til the days get long Just you and I
Livin' in the darkness, baby Comin' all undone Been a cruel December, now we're prayin' for the sun By the time the storm rolls in, we could be long gone Baby, let's get lost 'til the days get long Just you and I
Police cars round in circles The silence gathering You never know what's next down here Close your eyes and shut your mouth And I know I won't last forever If there's nothing left in your heart for me Baby, baby, baby, baby Too young to die and too old To believe in Promises
The ambulance is singing To streetcars in the rain Like barracuda waiting For the guns down in the hood But this ain't no West Side Story And the curtain's comin' down on me Baby, baby, baby, baby Too young to die and too old To believe in Promises It's all sound and all fury It's all reach and no touch It's all life's cold bravado All grown up and old so fast
And I know I won't last forever If there's nothing left in your heart for me Baby, baby, baby, baby Too young to die and too old I'm too young to die and too old To believe in Promises
I look at this mountain So many heartaches wide And I can't help but wonder Where's the other side I've got to be honest I've got my doubts These tears are asking me What's this got to do with love? Baby, I'll tell you something To help us through this long, dark night When this trouble passes over You and I will walk away Knowing that our love survived Another test of faith You and I can walk on water The river rises, we rise above It may not look that way right now But trust me, baby...this is love. Love isn't easy I'm torn, I confess When a heart is uncertain It's bound to second guess This love won't forsake us So dry your tears I promise you When this trouble passes over You and I will walk away Knowing that our love survived Another test of faith You and I can walk on water The river rises, we rise above It may not look that way right now But trust me, baby...this is love. I'm here for you baby There's nothing I want more Our day is coming And we'll reach that peaceful shore When this trouble passes over You and I will walk away Knowing that our love survived Another test of faith Cause you and I can walk on water The river rises, we rise above It may not look that way right now But trust me, baby....this is love One more mountain Hey...so what Trust me baby...this is love.
The walls are thin here in this motel room Some fool is raging overhead He's preaching the gospel according to Johnnie Walker Red Four hundred miles talking to myself Me and your memory end up here I tell myself I'm gonna be alright But it's still not clear Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Is this the only love I'll know Like a Judas kiss Did my heart betray me Back on the road I never chose There are some sins that you can justify But not the one I'm guilty of I had a choice one last chance ago But I turned my back on love Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Is this the only love I'll know Like a Judas kiss Did my heart betray me Back on the road I never chose
I can hear the man upstairs, he's crying out Fall on you knees, the end is near We both may need a saviour, tonight I fear that mine Is the one that I left waiting far from here Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Is this the only love I'll know Like a Judas kiss Did my heart betray me Back on the road I never chose Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Is this the only love I'll know Like a Judas kiss Did my heart betray me Back on the road I never chose
Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Did I just miss My only way out of here Did I just miss The last exit to Eden Did I just miss My only way out
Never seen a sky so blue I've never been happy with anyone Like I am when I'm with you Look at the sun shining up in the sky I feel a little closer to heaven, baby When I'm looking into your eyes Andaslong as we're together boy I'm sitting on top of the world Wanna feel this way forever, boy I'm sitting on top of the world Last night I lay in the dark Tryin' to figure it out Tryin' to talk to my heart But now it's morning and I still don't know why All I know is that you got me feeling so good All I know is that it feels the way that true love should Ain't no one luckier than you and I Andaslong as we're together boy I'm sitting on top of the world Wanna feel this way forever, boy I'm sitting on top of the world
And everybody's got an opinion 'bout how this should be But they don't understand it No, no they just can't see That I belong with you and baby, baby, Baby, you belong with me
Andaslong as we're together boy I'm sitting on top of the world
Wanna feel this way forever, boy I'm sitting on top of the world Andaslong as we're together boy I'm sitting on top of the world
Fed up with my destiny And this place of no return Think I'll take another day And slowly watch it burn It doesn't really matter how the time goes by 'Cause I still remember you and I And that beautiful goodbye
We staggered through these empty streets Laughing arm in arm The night had made a mess of me Your confession kept me warm And I don't really miss you, I just need to know Do you ever think of you and I And that beautiful goodbye
When I see you now I wonder how I could've watched you walk away If I let you down Please forgive me now For that beautiful goodbye
In these days of no regrets I keep mine to myself And all the things we never said I can say for someone else 'Cause nothing lasts forever, but we always try And I just can't help but wonder why We let it pass us by
When I see you now I wonder how I could've watched you walk away If I let you down Please forgive me now For that beautiful goodbye
Baby what can I do Oh, to get through to you And sometimes I cry It's a fools lullaby And sometimes I cryIt's a fools lullaby
Indian summer Abilene You were new in town Abilene You were new in town I was nineteen And sparks flew They called us crazy Behind our backs Romantic fools We just let them laugh Because we knew It may be a long shot We may be lonely down the line But love knows no reason And I won't let them make up my mind My money's riding on this dark horse, baby My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one And it's true color's gonna shine through someday If we let this Let this dark horse run
Stars are brighter In a desert sky No need to wonder Or justify Where this will lead I wear your locket Our picture's inside Inscription says The joy's in the ride And I believe Something so sacred Is something worth this kind of fight Cause love knows no patience You can't please everyone all the time My money's riding on this dark horse, baby My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one And it's true color's gonna shine through someday If we let this Let this dark horse run
So rare So sweet Together baby We can be free My money's riding on this dark horse, baby My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one And it's true color's gonna shine through someday If we let this Let this dark horse run My money's riding on this dark horse, baby My heart is sayin' it's the lucky one And it's true color's gonna shine through someday If we let this Let this dark horse run
Indian summer Abilene You were new in town I was nineteen
Lost inside this angeltown Lost like I could not be found No connections of the heart Love was glass that broke apart Gimme faith in dreams And someone to hold Gimme love 'cause I'm out here in the cold There are no secrets No angels at my door
And oh, when you touch my hand I fall from grace And oh, when you reach for me I fall from grace On a steeltown boulevard Life's a promise that doesn't last Resurrections of the past Children come and are gone so fast So gimme faith in love Baby tonight Gimme arms to hold you here so tight There are no secrets No angels at my door And oh, when you touch my hand I fall from grace And oh, when you reach for me I fall from grace
Virgil Spencer's got a 19 inch hitachi, and many demons lingering Friday night he pulled a gun to change the channel, something that he picked up from the King His wife remembers well the man she knew, seems the dreams she had have turned black and blue She's wasted years, no time for tears Cause there's another chance, and someday soon Shining like the Alabama moon She's looking for her promised land Out beyond the lights of Birmingham
It's 3 a.m. and Virgil's passed out on the sofa, a fifth of Jim Beam on the floor She's packed a bag she slips the keys out of his pocket, and she's careful not to slam the door And as she drives she rubs her rosary she's never been so all alone, she's never felt so free She's got miles to go, blind faith and hope Cause there's another chance, and someday soon Shining like the Alabama moon She's looking for her promised land Out beyond the lights of Birmingham
As the rain falls down upon the interstate, any doubts she had are all but washed away One long look back, at Birmingham Cause there's another chance, and someday soon Shining like the Alabama moon She's looking for her promised land Out beyond the lights of Birmingham another chance, and someday soon Shining like the Alabama moon She's looking for her promised land Out beyond the lights of Birmingham
I have given, I have given and got none Still I'm driven by something I can't explain It's not a cross, it is a choice I cannot help but hear his voice I only wish that I could listen without shame Let it rain, let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me
I have been a witness to the perfect crime I Wipe the grin off of my face to hide the blame It isn't worth the tears you cry To have a perfect alibi Now I'm beaten at the hands of my own game Let it rain, let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me
It isn't easy to be kind With all these demons in my mind I only hope one day I'll be free
I do my best not to complain My face is dirty from the strain I only hope one day I'll come clean Rain, let it rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me Come take my hand We can walk to the light And without fear We can see through the darkest night Rain, rain on me Let it rain, oh let it rain Let it rain on me
