for you to cry

cuz you can't stop livin'
for life
(oh yeah)
prepare for take off
up we go
nice and slow
(yeah)
past the clouds
faster than sound
we depart the ground
(oh yeah)

I took to the skies
I proved my worth
if only to me

While You Got It
03:37

I hope to rectify
all I've said and done.
the strange ways i've lived my life
under the setting sun.
It's out of force of habit
it's rather hard to break.
Better hold on to love while you got it
its getting hard to make.
They say that sunny days,
are just around the bend.
They say that darkened ways,
all must come to end.
But everyday grows a little bit dimmer,
this light we hold.
Better grab on to love while you got it,
fortune favors the bold.
And I hold you
And you see me
And I told you
But you showed me
My eyes are weary,
and my soul can't get no rest.
Don't know if you can hear me,
but i give you my best.
But i see things rather clearly,
it has to be this way.
Didn't hold on to love while i had it,
now its gone away.
And I held you
And you saw me
And I told you
But you showed me

Bad Blood Don't Lie
04:17
|

|
With each generation the same
one after another
steal a dollar
pay in pennies
even envy each other
whether its ego or pride
that you put before your country
we'd sing of pappy too
if he weren't beat by Guthrie
blow off some steam,man
before your orange skin turns pale
The apple dont fall far from the tree
Bad Blood runs in the family
through every test just to turn a blind eye
you and yours proved Bad Blood Don't Lie
Well come on children now
we gotta rally to each other
lest we all see the dark
and accept our fate to smother
while we criticize and victimize
they capitalize and exercise
and soon we'll all be put aside
and there ain't no river deep nor wide
there ain't no truth
when Bad Blood Don't Lie

Hobbit Weed
06:59

Over hill
under dale,
by the river
Anduin
Walks the wizard
who tells his tale
of the hobbit
and the ring
He knows all!
there is to know
where hes been
it surely shows
He waves his staff
He draws is sword
the forces of evil
are no more
lightning crashes
to the ground
it makes such a
deafening sound
with a flash of light
and all his might
the wizard rides
into the night.
Join all on the shire mount
to jam with the hobbit band
and puff out ships
that sail us to undying lands
While daydreaming of songs with string and brass
to get a glimpse of when all turns to silver glass.

Fly On By
04:50
|
|||
|
Just flew past the mountain
can't recall where i've been
a shepherd on wings in the sky
time and time again
But no ones sight can spot me
high above the clouds
through the rain and snow
stills no one knows
it simply goes to show
But you can't see me
I am always there
Reborn again as you were
when your life began
We fly
fly on by
never asking why
never asking why
but we fly on by
But you can't see me
I am always there
Reborn again as you were
when your life began
when your life began
fly
fly on by
and we fly on by
and we fly on by
never asking why
flying oh so high
oh my
and we fly on by
and we fly on by
fly on by
never asking why

Billy Joe we gotta go
gotta find a new piece of mind
take your time
and see all the signs on the way
Mary Jane, is that your name?
I did not mean to cause you any pain
and I feel rather largely to blame
for the way things are
Betty Sue what you gonna do?
killing yourself despite all you been through
maybe one day you'll have a clue
of how to go about it all
Its Names
making up all our lives
Its games
thats covering up all the lies
Well i can't do this anymore today
guess I'll pack up and go my way
and if you need me
just call my name.
Betty Brown, walking round town
loud as a train, but don't make no sounds
everybody just calls her a clown
(but dont ya know!?)
But (that) she's happy
Lazy Steve got everything he need
don't need no friends he just do as he please
living his life in a fantasy
of his own creation
well Billy Joe, what do ya know?
all these people, they come and they go
maybe one day, we'll all know
what it means
Its Names
making up all our lives
Its games
thats covering up all the lies
Well i can't do this anymore today
guess I'll pack up and go my way
and if you need me
just call my name.

And Here We Are
07:26

Been waiting for so long
to relive our stories in this song
for those most close in our lives
to those from way back when
and all more recent friends
I hope they remember too and realize
how far we've come and the cost
and we're more familiar with the loss
as we've all grown in the mind
so for those from way back when
and all more recent friends
since everyone is one of a kind:
When it comes to the people in your life
nothing else matters at all
we've all grown and know regret
after time, change and sweat
yet we reunite again
And Here We Are.
That feeling, unsuspecting
when our eyes met and started dancing
I finally found the better half of me
look how we put each other at ease
not to mention all the memories
we know everything others can't see
all the years we shared together
still everyday with you gets better
no distance can keep us apart
look how we put each other at ease
not to mention all the memories
that made us who we are.
When it comes to the people in your life
nothing else matters at all
after all this time gone and went
if this last sacrifice was spent
here in each other's arms again
And Here We Are.
