1. _ Looking Back
Looking back at public school
Reading playboy magazine
Insisting that the articles
Were the only things we'd read
Thinking then that love was meant to
Conquer
And if a girl said she liked you
Then you'd bonk her
Don't try to lay that mush on me
Looking back a high school
Getting drunk for the local dance
Lonely boys - nervous girls
Grappling with romance
Thinking then that love
Meant something frightening
A sudden end as brutal
As bolts of lightening
Don't know what it was, but it scared me
Chorus:
From one night stands to wedding bands
To struggling to stay free
Watching time move faster
As hold on helplessly
As love smoulders waiting to be tamed
We grow older staying much the same
Looking back a college life
Seemed like such a compromise
Unsure of my direction
Using brains as my disguise
Thinking then that love meant to
Remember
You only felt its warmth
When you surrendered
Don't know what it was, but it scared me

2. _ People
Now there are people
That fall - into my life
Each one can change my world
So slightly
And everyone so different
Yet so much the same
Each and everyone so deep
Inside me
Chorus:
I love i hate
I live i die
For every single day
That passes me by
But for all the pain
That meets my eyes
I still believe in people
Now i've been called naive
Just a reckless dreamer
Destined to drown
In all my feelings
Yet i keep on smiling through my tears
Juggling wonderment with tear
Just trying to find some meaning
Repeat chorus
There are times when i feel
Like giving it all up
I'll look into myself and see a stranger
Oh and nothing can seem stranger
But i know
I'll come around
And like the fool i am
I'll see this world so much stronger cause that's the way my life lights spins
Until the day it dims
Until my life will be no longer
Repeat chorus

3. _ I Dream I Saw Your Face Last Night
As i gaze into the sky
There's a shooting star that's falling
As it dwindles into floating dust
My name i hear it calling
Oh god i'd love to be free
But there's something wrong, you see
I can't make it
Just with me
I'm lonely...
Well i dreamt i saw your face last night
Just an image in the long
While falling through space i felt
Just you and me
And god
I just don't know if i can believe in you
The dreamer deep inside me
Surely wants me to
If only dreams come true
At times i get this feeling
That there's more to my life then greets my eyes
Just a crazy kind of feeling
Then i take a look around
This world's falling down
Only a clown could believe ...believe
Well everyone's had hopes i guess
On how the world should be
Everyone's had dreams that just elude reality
Oh and god your name's been used
For politics for power
God your name's been used
For all the love that towers
But has yet to fall - upon us all
Well i dreamt i saw your face last night...

4. _ Growing Up
Ma cried like a lady
Pa cried like a man
1963 - one less kennedy
And i was too young to understand
And the years flew by in colours
Each one a little faster than before
And as the war caused some to cry
I'd identify
My tv keeping score
Growing up - in the shadow of the u.s.a.
Trying to find - the meaning of life today
America - it's a heavy kind of role you
Play
You're the hero - you're the villain
Your every move is on display
Ma cried like a lady
Pa cried like a man
1963 - one less kennedy
And i was too young to understand
We were all too young to understand

5. _ Welcome
Welcome baby boy
To a brand new world
May the tears fall like a rainstorm
From your eyes
Looks like life kinda took you
By surprise
You're so tiny that it scares me
Your nakedness just stares at me
And i never thought my head
Could spin so high
Welcome baby boy
Don't look so confused
One day i'll try to sit down and explain
That the love that brought you here
Will never change
You're so helpless that it shakes me
Yet so charged with life you make me
So happy that i think i'm gonna cry
Life has come to greet your child
Play it safe- play it wild
Reach for the truth beyond
The rules beyond the games
Life is yours and yours along
Free to settle - free to roam
Free to grow - free to change
Free to fight to stay the same
Welcome baby boy
To a brand new world
May the tears fall like a rainstorm
From your eyes
Looks like life kinda took you
By surprise
Oh surprise

6. _ Fountain
Woman please don't try
Explaining how or why - i understand
Love's too beautiful to explain
And nothing can be wrong
With loving him again
He really loves you
I can see him in your eyes
And like a fountain
You offer no disguise
And babe, i'm glad you've never tried
And the night times that we shared
Made me gratefully aware
That i was happy
So real so undefined
And i just want you to be you
In a lifestyle undefined
You really love him
I can see you in his eyes
And like a fountain
He offers no disguise
And babe, i'm glad he's never tried
I read somewhere
That grown men never cry
Their heart just freezes over
For a day
So instead - here's my masculine
Goodbye
May love be with you all the way
My guitar does all my crying
Anyway
There's happiness combined
With the pain within my mind
You gave me feelings
That i never knew existed
And all you'd do is laugh
And my defenses would be lifted
And i love you
You're sketched so softly in my eyes
And like a fountain
I offer no disguise
And babe, i'm glad i've never tried

7. _ You Say You're Free
You say you're free
Well your freedom's killing me
And i feel just like a statue
To be admired from a distance
My love collides with your resistance
Then bounces back inside of me
You say you're strong
Well your strength just shatters me
As i scramble for my pieces
But the puzzle keeps repeating
It seems so self-defeating
How we plan each move so carefully
Chorus:
And still we both hang on
We risk a night and greet the down
An affair for you - for me a song
Then suddenly it's over
Two cynics passing through
I blew it - i fell in love with you
The thing i swore i'd never do
And now m love just turns you colder
You say you're trying to find yourself
Well i know how hard that is
And i wish that i could help you
To share while like keeps teaching
To share while you keep reaching
But you prefer to reach out privately
Repeat chorus
You say you're free
Well you freedom's killing me
And i feel just like a statue
To be admired from a distance
My love collides with your resistance
Then bounces back inside of me
The pattern goes on endlessly

8. _ Nobody's Right
The boy left for new york
He left the woods and trees behind
And no one knows just what's on his mind
He says he's lost - he'll pay any cost
Just to find out where he belongs
But the girl left for the country
She left those blaring lights behind
And no one knows just what's on here mind
She says she's lost - she'll pay any cost
Just to find out where she belongs
Chorus:
Nobody's right - nobody's wrong
Everybody's searching
We're all searching for where we belong
The boy lives in a high rise now
He's neighbours with the sky
The mirror in the hallway keeps asking
Why
The silence knows
- that the change will help him grow
Help him to find where he belongs
The girls lives in a cabin now
She gazes at the sky
The shooting stars keep falling
They keep on asking why
The silence knows
The change will help her grow
Help here to find where she belongs

9. _ Seed Of Music
Chorus:
The seed of music within me
Has bloomed into a flower
And though it claims to set me free
I'm lost within its power
Lord don't let this crazy world
Make a jukebox out of me
Let the songs keep flowing
Strong and naturally
The gift of music is the key
To all my tears my laughter
And though it claims to set me free
It reigns my life as master
Lord don't let this crazy world
Make a jukebox out of me
Let the songs keep flowing
Strong and naturally
And oh let me say this peacefully
Forget the dreams forget the fantasies
Let me make it honestly
Or not at all
And oh let me say this peacefully
Forget the dreams forget the fantasies
Let me make it honestly
Or not at all
And ho let me say this forcefully
Forget the dreams erase the fantasies
Let me make it honestly
Or not at all
Repeat chorus

10. _ You Make Me Want To Be
Chorus:
You make me want to be a father
Trade my wandering path of freedom
For your soul
Oh and all i once defied
And locked so deep inside
Is on a roller coaster riding out of control
You make me want to be a teacher
Teach that love is all there is
And still there's more
Oh and everywhere i turn
And everything i learn
Shows me there's something new
I've never seen before
Words can only take a thought so far
And i've almost gone as far as i can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us
As we grow
And we grow
And we grow
You make me want to be a writer
Write this world a crazy love song
For today
Let me glide upon your smile
It beams for miles and miles
Catch it now before it sails away
Oh and words can only take a thought so far
And i guess i've gone as far as i can go
To see each other as we really are
Exploring all around us
As we grow
And we grow
And we grow
Repeat chorus

11. _ Sour Whiskey
Hand me down another whiskey sour
I'm a willing victim to its spell
And i just can't rebel
I'm far too thirsty and too tired
Hold me like you'd hold a broken soldier
Who's forgotten the meaning of war
Please don't' close that door
I'm about as pure as a children's choir
Chorus:
Sunshine
Can you spread your warmth over me
Chase the clouds from the sky casually
Make me feel like a child
Once again
Sunshine
How does it feel lost in the sky
Is it dizzy looking down from that high
Well you know
You've always got a friend
One more drink and this day'll be over
I can already feel the cold
My jacket i sold
For fifteen dollars worth of booze
One more drink and i'll be off on some
Rainbow
Looking down at this world below
I'm so high that i'm low
But this is the only life i'd choose
