Live At Ka

He won't think twice about
The little things he can go without
His cares find higher ground
The lives of others around
His lease of time and space
Will not show on his face
With what i've got i'll make do
I'm only passing through
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
Talks about this future place
Says i'll need a lawyer to fight my case
He believes in the master plan
Says he's living in borrowed land
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
With every soul he saves his eyes fill with joy
Another human being the word did not destroy
He shines on days when even the sun's not around
Stands on beliefs that are old tradition found
And he swears on it like he's been there
A warning from the past
And he'll share a tale and convince you
And pray that it will last
He won't think twice about the little things he can go without

I was driving in my car just the other day
Thinking about the times when i used to say
Life is just a game anyone can play
But somehow that thought has seemed to fade away
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
Being nineteen isn't what its supposed to be
Waiting for things to be brought to me
Why'd i have to grow up and see
That this world wasn't made for me
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
I don't need your help
I just need some time
I don't care for your thoughts
Just for mine
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find
I find myself a slave to things i've said
Like in my life i will bring home lots of bread
I'm like a needle without a thread
Cannot understand why these lights are red
I'll close the door on what's behind
I don't know anymore if i can find peace of mind
Can i find some peace of mind
So very very hard to find

Softly i hear you call
And surely you're after it all
You tell me you know just who i am
That's a felony
Cause no one can
I can only look back when i stand all on my own
I know a friend
And i'll tell you when i see one
I'm reaching back again
Can i make it if i run
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you
The train has left the station
With no chartered destination
If you don't have a ticket in your hand
It's too late to ride
Cause i've already closed the ticket stand
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you
Softly i hear you call
And surely you're after it all
You tell me you know just who i am
That's a felony
Cause no one can
And theres something that i really want to know
Its building up inside
Where did you go
Where were you when i was naked in the cold
Where were you when my thoughts were growing old
Where were you

You don't think the way i do
You've got your own point of view
We don't see eye to eye on many things
Even when we try
I find in you what i don't in me
A side of life i never see
So you be you and i'll be me
Its okay if we disagree
I'm learning more and more each day
I'm thinking about the things you say
Why you do the things you do
And why you are the you that's you
I find in you what i don't in me
A side of life i never see
So you be you and i'll be me
It's okay if we disagree
I've been listening to every word you say
Maybe someday i will feel your way
But not today
What i do is what i see
You said when you were just like me
You've grown lot and now you

Here i am as i have been so many times before
Looking back across the water
To my house upon the shore
Turning 'round and 'round again
To face the open air
Bewildered by the here
And the what is over there
Kicking up the surface
Then giving back again
How far out can i reach
Without failing in
'cause i can't walk on water
Standing on my pier upon the ocean
Captured by the notions of possibility
Manufacturing reality
Alone as i seem i am among you
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
I guess i'll never find the puff-the-magic-dragon side
Unless i ride my ship of dreams across the swirling tide
I stare into the chaos that's ahead of me
Frustrated with the path that i have chose to see
Like an arrow shot
My dreaming eye is caught
By the distant shores returning
To just an inch behind
'cause i can walk on water
Standing on my pier upon the ocean
Captured by the notions of possibility
Manufacturing reality
Alone as i seem i am among you
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
Just a little ways out
Just a little ways in
If i was making a bridge this is where i would begin
But i wouldn't have stopped here
If i call out will you walk on water
Will you walk on water
Leaps of faith must suffer the weight of hopes
But then the undertow pulls strongest
To the ones that we have been
Will you walk on water

You say it's not a how
But rather it's a why
If you think you've got the answers
Then get up and try
If my belief comes with an empty hand
Don't call me a sinner
Even though i am
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things
That we concur on
And move along to something else
I'm sitting in the corner
Got my face against the wall
I can't be sold on what i'm told
I'm too scared to fall
Don't disregard me if i don't buy your brand of bread
I cant help it if i don't find strength in what you've said
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things that we concur on
And move along to something else
Hear the preach and praise the speech
Well that's all nice and fine
Understand me when i say
That i'm satisfied with mine
I know you want to help me
But i'll be fine on my own
Now i'm going out to dinner
If i have to all alone
Don't waste your time
My mind is set
Don't hit me up tomorrow
Cause i won't forget
Let's talk of the things that we concur on
And move along to something else

Your eyes look through me
Like you knew what i don't
Your smile's so soothing
When you know
That i won't turn away
Say good-bye on any future day
Lose myself make you cry
And run away and hide
You bring to me security i've never had before
I'm learning to sleep again
'cause i know that you are so sincere
Your lying here and never going away
I can say that today
I'm the happiest man alive
Without you in my life
I'd never be the same
Without you in my life
I'd never feel the same
Now that you're in my life
I'll never be the same
Now close your eyes
And listen to the music
And let it be understood
That this is how i feel
Without you in my life
I'd never be the same
Without you in my life
I'd never feel the same
Now that you're in my life
I'll never be the same
Oh i'm so satisfied
With all that you do
And the way you make me feel
Without you in my life
And the way you make me feel
