1. _ Another Time
You never told me you'd be waiting,
You never told me you'd be there.
Nothing was said, but it was understood.
I never doubted that you'd care.
Another time, another memory,
Like the light from a burning star.
Another time you will come back to me
Like a messenger from afar.
Now the storm breaks without a warning,
With no time for us to prepare.
Now more than ever how i need you.
I never doubted you'd be there.
Oh, the prophecy
Of what it's gonna be
For you and me,
Oh, forgive me if i wander
From the path that we were on.
You never told me you'd be waiting,
You never told me you'd be there.
Now more than ever how i need you.
I never doubted you'd be there.

2. _ Mountainside
It was a night, yeah, the kind of night
Left me pacing 'cross the floor.
It was a dream, like those other dreams,
So many times before.
I went back to the old town,
To the streets i used to roam,
And i looked into my daddy's eyes
And asked that fatal question, "why'd
You have to go?"
You had to go.
There was a time when life was good
And everything felt so right.
I don't know why, i never understood
Why you left us on that night.
I went back, to that day when you left us on our own -
Now i look into my baby's eyes
And i just know there is no way
I'd ever go.
I'll never go.
Take me to the mountainside,
Far away from here,
Where my eyes are open wide -
No one gets too near.

3. _ No Joke
Blue skies in my rear-view mirror,
Well, i've got you on my mind.
Road sign says i'm getting nearer,
And now it's just a matter of time.
Well, now i get to wonder,
Do you take me for a fool?
Do i have to take a number
And wait in line
Just to get to you?
You got the time, i got the money -
This ain't workin' at all.
It's no joke, and it ain't funny -
I think i'm losing control.
Like tumbleweed that's blowin' free
You change direction with the wind.
We both know that this may never be
Nothing more than someplace to begin.

4. _ The Ring
The grey mist ushers in the day.
A beggar walks along the king's highway.
Where does he come from? who can tell?
They can't escape the gaze they know so well.
The dream came true in far off lands.
He always knew she'd understand.
The march of time her love did wane.
Another's crime played on the lady's pain,
And now the ring shines in her hand.
Who's the stranger with her wedding band?
With faith so true, robbed of his lands
He always knew she'd understand.

5. _ Mystery Man
Keep your distance, you'll never know how it feels.
I've been to places that took my mind away from me.
Your aiming questions opens the wound that just won't heal.
I'm just a man that uncle sam gave the dark side of the deal.
So much for the constitution and the home of the free,
Fighting for a nation that's brought me to my knees.
Wherever i go, people wanna know
Who's that mystery man?
I stand all alone, my name carved in stone.
I'm the mystery man.
Out in the jungle, i didn't know then what i know now.
Out in the jungle, i faced the danger next to me.
Deep in the trenches i could have died, it was understood.
I couldn't cry, too afraid to show the fear.
Wherever i go, people wanna know
Who's that mystery man?
I stand all alone, my name carved in stone.
I'm the mystery man.
Wherever i go, people wanna know
Who's that mystery man?
I'm living the pain and stuck with that name,
The mystery man.

6. _ A Thousand Years
Times are changing, we'll soon be facing
A story yet unknown.
Don't deny it, we can't defy it.
It'll happen on its own.
The past behind us, there to remind us
Of what could be again.
Fact or fiction, deep intuition
Of wondering how and when.
Once in a thousand years
The secrets of the past
Will change the way we see.
Across the ocean, the world's emotions
Are in and out of time.
The changing seasons, no rhyme or reason,
The choices, cruel or kind.
One day it's clear, then clouds appear
'cause nothing stays the same.
The thoughts that have conditioned you,
It's how you play the game.
But then the day will come around
We'll turn the world upside down.

7. _ On Your Own
The eagle soars and echoes my name,
Cliff face, granite grain,
Black stone, shining gem -
Don't want to fall in no devil's den.
You're thrown a line, so you hold on tight.
So many wonders to be seen.
It don't come easy and you work to be free -
There is no guarantee.
You're on your own,
Trying your best not to fall.
You're on your own,
Trying to make sense of it all.
Golden path, land of dreams,
Enchanted kingdom
Not all it seems.
Royal realm, rules within.
A sacred journey, where to begin?
You could be home tending the fire,
You could nothing at all,
But if you want to reach for something higher
You gotta scale that wall.
You're on your own....
Jagged edge meets the sky,
Crystal vision flows on by.
As you reach for the stars,
Then you find who you really are.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Nothing ever stays the same.
You search your soul, as yet untamed,it can bring you pleasure or pain.
You're on your own....

8. _ Comfort Zone
Go ahead and cry and weep and moan -
You know the blame is all your own.
You paid your money and you made a choice.
A world out there's waiting to be shown.
Stuck in conformity, something wrong with that.
Searching for sanity, i'm not falling in that trap.
The way you're going, you'll travel alone
'cause i'll never stay in the comfort zone.
You didn't roll the dice, you didn't take the shot,
You're all wrapped up in what you got.
You're crying about the way you feel
To the music of your spinning wheels.

9. _ Crack Of Dawn

10. _ Top Of The World
Living in the shadow of darkness
And wondering why.
Knowing that there but for fortune
Go you and i.
Temptation has turned you
And twisted the knife.
The world that we bought into
Is no longer mine.
Love lost, you pay the cost of a lonely way -
This time you chose to go too far.
How does it feel to be on top of the world?
Looking around, you see the ground below.
How does it feel to be on top of the world?
Living a life that only you can know.
Say goodbye to the old days,
They're over and gone.
Facing up to the realization
That we've got to move on.
This love and attraction
Has taken its toll.
Your lies and illusions
Left me out in the cold.
Love lost, you pay the cost of a lonely way -
This time you chose to go too far.
How does it feel...

11. _ Tales Of The Wise
Any fool must surely know
You plant a seed and it will grow,
But only if you tend it well.
It's as the wise men so do tell.
The end will justify the means
And all the riches of your dreams,
But don't be tempted on the way.
It's as the wise men so do say.
Like trees, children change
As they twist and turn.
You suffer alone for the peace that you yearn.
You can weep and moan, feel the need to run,
But you're leaving behind a loaded gun.

12. _ Wait Out The Storm
There's a light in the distance burning faithfully.
Can't you show your resistance to the enemy?
Make your way under cover of night.
You brave bad weather and you hold on tight.
See the light in the distance burning faithfully.
Why don't you see it burn, it's plain as day.
When will you ever learn that it's better this way.
You point a finger and you turn your back -
There's no disguise for the faith you lack.
There's a light in the distance burning faithfully.
The pale blue yonder is calling me.
These days i wonder where you'll go
And what you'll be.
Wait out the storm, that's all that you can do.
Praying for dawn, let the bell ring true.
