Who's Left To Believe
04:50

He comes to you for all your reasons
Take a trick from the blind man's treason
A show of hands, who here understands?
You have the way promise you'll show me
Don't look away after you own me
Do you have the dream that will come true
Who's left to believe
Everyone on earth has a basic need
If you take away the trust, take away the love
Who's left to believe
You can advertise the answers behind your greed
I won't pay the price to believe in you
I could be a loner or I could have it all
Then you sit back and wait for me to crawl
I don't have to crawl
You shape your world for hire
Form a line to the right
Will our freedom take us through the night

Come Into My Heart
05:29
|
|||
It's quiet on the south end of town tonight
There's nothing to see but what's been left to see
Johnny and Mary out on the town tonight
Thinking of someplace else they'd rather be
If you come into my heart
I can't let you escape
There's just not enough out there to need
It's the ones who are selfish
And the ones who are sane
That find a place in this world to succeed
Don't you know that I can't live my life alone
Don't you know that when you cut me I bleed
If you see the tears roll down my face tonight
Just remember who showed you the way
The way to chip the ice, the way to shout it out
Now only a moment for the light to fade
I see myself too well
I stood and then I fell
No one to blame at all
We stand and then we fall
It's quiet on the south end of town tonight
Nothing to see but who's left holding the key
Johnny and Mary out on the town tonight
Hoping between themselves it's the last place they'll see

Simple Life
04:06
|

Don't need no hubcaps to make it go round
Don't need no landscape to put on the ground
Don't need no linen to make me look nice
Keep your mind open, take a look twice
Don't need no palace on top of the hill
Don't need no hard line to give me a thrill
Haven't got the drive, to go one-eighty-five
I got this thing about stayin alive
The simple life's alright with me
The simple life just lets me be
The simple life I have no doubt at all
the simple life's a luxury
Cause simple's my reality
The simple life's no fantasy to me
I can see you think I'm foolin'
You can say you don't think I'm smooth
I got this line that I can't cross
And my simple days they see me through
Don't need no plastic to give me a charge
Don't need no lights to make me a star
I got a woman that knows who I am
She loves the fact that I'm a simple man

Everything
03:17
|

I wake up and she's not there
I try to hold her but she's not there
Everything she means to me
Is everything I want to see oh year
How I miss her so
I see her smile when she's not here
It takes a while to stop the tears
Everything she means to me
Is everything I want to see again
Why she had to go
Is there something I should know
All I do is sit around a-cryin'
Time keeps ticking away
But the hurt still wants to stay
I could say I'm ok, but I'm a lyin

Girl Like That
03:18
|

Did you see her, did you tell her
Everything's all right
I know how she is, you know how you are
You think she's all right
With all the things that she means to you
I can't believe the life you put her through
I never understood this loyal kind
Who live to prove that love is blind
You don't see her, she needs you near her
But she'll let me know
You say you love her, but you still cover
What you're afraid to show
I don't want to tell her what to do
I'll just tell her when they're finally through
Will she follow when he makes his tracks
You know you don't deserve a Girl Like That
I remember when you held her hand
Situations sometimes spoil your plans
With all the things she means to you
I can't believe the life you put her through
But she waits to take you right back
You don't deserve a Girl Like That

The Last Thing
05:05
|
|||
I feel the symptoms burning up in me
I feel temptation rising in degrees
The last thing I heard was the first thing I saw
You had your mission and I had my law
The last thing I heard was the first thing I saw
I'm behind the wheel driven by my soul
I've seen the destination, it keeps me in control
I was left to your devices; you had me won
I know that I kissed you but you never slipped me the tongue
You don't know now what's inside now

Love's So Far
05:16
|
|||
I have so many games to keep me occupied
If I said I had it all then I would have lied
I just started thinking one solitary day
No one lights my candle; no one shares my flame
When love's so far away
There's one thing you should know, I revolve around the son
It's something that I look for when I'm looking for the one
When love's so far away
Seeing her here (Will I ever know)
Makes it so clear (It was so long ago)
Knowing what to do (Since my something new)
Got to see it, I've got to see it through
Nothing will change (I can't stay the same)
Stages rearrange (I'll find someone to blame)
I laugh on my own (trying to get home)
But it seems like I've never grown
When love's so far away...

Running
05:34
|
|||
Out in the dark of the night
My feelings holding you tight
Unleash the smile to your face
Something to never erase
I want to touch you I hope that I can
And there's something that tells me
It's part of the plan
You see the sunshine all day
And clouds just won't come your way
As you look out to me
You like what you think you see
I'll tell you something I've known from the start
That you can't take a loan from a borrowed heart
Feels like you're running, I know you're running
And I see it's your pride, God knows you've tried
Looks like you're fighting, and it gives up what you're hiding
If I could stay, you might find the way
Seems like your existence puts up a resistance
I know there's times you've been burned
Something to live for is something to die for
I know there's a life to be given that's ours all the way
Out in the dark of the night
Everything seems to be right
Unleash the smile to your face
Somehow it cannot replace
Everything that's been taken away
And there's times that you wonder
What's gonna stay

Fearless
04:42
|
|||
It seems somehow in the dawn
When you're out on the road alone
Cliches of the night can infiltrate, penetrate, inebriate
Turn your head to the sky
Is someone calling your name?
Too scared to go where you're told to go
Living slow, the last to know
Tear off another day
Wipe off some more of the past
Learn to be humble before you're old
The wind blows cold, upon your soul
I'm human just like you
Goodness always knows the mistakes
But I put my fate in a higher hand
Didn't make a plan, gave up my stand
Don't be afraid to be fearless
Freedom comes from letting go
Don't be afraid to be fearless
Find the ones who will know
You can't walk away
He'll always find you
You can't walk away

The Real One
03:30
|
|||
Close the door now turn the key
There's enough of you and me
To satisfy a whole life through
With all the things that we explore
We finally found what we're looking for
And it's as simple as it's meant to be
Don't you know we've found the real one
(Living on it's own)
Don't you know that we can
Live the future, love the past
Know this time it's meant to last
I think of how I used to be
Treasure locked inside of me
I always wanted to let go, and now you know
I've got the symptoms that's for sure
But I ain't looking for no cure
There's nothin' common 'bout the lovin' kind
I think you'll find
