I was waiting for the summer all I had was rain
But I had some things I needed to wash away
So that old sun can take his sweet time
Singin' it's gonna be alright
Now, the Eagle never wastes time tryin' to be a Crow
So be yourself and take it slow
And if someone tells you different, well they gotta go
Singin' it's gonna be alright
And life is your river, it's your give and take
It'll push you up and pull you down
So you better learn to swim, or you'd better learn to drown
Singin' it's gonna be alright
And if you wanna be a star, you'd better learn to shine
To take your place up in the sky
And if you wanna be a Fox, babe, you better be sly
Singin' it's gonna be alright
The Eagle never wastes time tryin' to be a Crow
So be yourself and take it slow
And if someone tells you different, well, they gotta go
Singin' it's gonna be alright

City Window

The reflections of a sunset are burnin' a hole inside my heart
They're bouncin' off a city window
And the light is pourin' down
Shinin' on the darkest corners, of my mind I thought forgotten
Surrounded by all these people, and no one is around
And I'm just another stranger with blue eyes
Now, beside me sits a man so betrayed by his faith
That he gave it all up, yeah, he threw it all away
He was livin' for the chase, now he's chasin' for his soul
But all the rules that he erased won't protect him anymore
And he's just another stranger with blue eyes
It's a cryin' shame you didn't see the wall, before it was too late
Too late to break it down, so now you have your fate
Whether dancin' to the Devil's song or on your knees before your God
It all seems so much the same
As your life fell into the fire, turned around, and saw your dreams runnin' after
There are no easy answers, now I'm old enough to know
That anything worth stealing is worth the hand that took it away
So set your spirits free, let the cards fall where they may
Forget all this eternity, and forget about this place
Where you're just another stranger
Nah, you won't be just another stranger with blue eyes

Birdsong

My life was in a knot
You come along and untie me
I've never had a lot
But I got you and that's okay
I've been dreaming of this angel
'Neath the driving rain
Her heartbeat is a thunder
That takes away the pain
(chorus)
Hey, hey, hey
I got a little bird she's singin' in my ears
And don't ya know, it's the sweetest sound
And hey, hey, hey
I got a little birdsong ringin' in my ears
And don't ya know, it's the sweetest sound
I'll stare into a thousand faces and I'll pick you out of the crowd
I hear their thousand voices, but yours is the one that speaks to me
The way your lips move, it's the sweetest melody
You whispered me to sleep, you put me in your dreams
Chorus
A dark heart might run from love but I'm not runnin' anymore
I'm not sayin' I'm in love with you, but ya never know
You got a light in your soul burnin' bright just like the sun
And it shines through your eyes like a candle in a window
Chorus

Pale Moon

Brother, oh brother, tell me what are we gonna do?
Here we're living in this light of a pale moon
Cryin' 'neath that tree won't get ya very far
Yeah, you gotta stand up on your feet no matter where you are
The Lion and the Tiger, yeah, they both still got to choose
Are they gonna stand and fight? Are they gonna win or lose?
But brother, oh brother, tell me what are we gonna do?
Here we're livin' in this light of a pale moon
I'd free you from your prison, but I ain't got the keys
I'd open all your doors, but that ain't up to me
And in those eyes there's anger and it's hidden dark and deep
But that stick of dynamite won't set you free
Now it's a wild world, take a chance and roll your dice
You might walk a mile through hell for a chance at paradise
But brother, oh brother, tell me what are we gonna do?
Here we're livin' in this light of a blood moon

Little Hands
02:31

|
I've been wasted, and honey, I've been wounded
I've been beat up, and got some scars to prove it
But I'm not losing, no, I'm never losing
As long as you're around
I'll be your morning cup of coffee
You can be my evening glass of wine and
We'll never be thirsty, no, we'll never be thirsty
Cause it's you and me
I'll run a marathon, honey, if you go callin'
I'll be a feather bed if you go fallin'
And I'll be a shade tree, yeah, I'll be a shade tree
When the sun is beating down
So let me hold your little hands, feel your skin against mine
Look into those bright blue eyes, and everything is all right
When it comes to push and shove, if it comes to push and shove
You're the one I'm thinking of, you're the one I love
