Way Back When
04:17
|

Way back when, senior high
Me and Mary Beth under Friday night lights
I never told you just what went down but
My heart broke with a brass band sound, and I swore I would, Never love again
Way back when, Southwest state
Me and Eileen, out on canyon lake
Playing love roulette with a loaded gun
We both took a bullet, but I dodged one
Hell her momma was stone cold crazy
And there ain't no way to go way back when, my love
And there aint no love like the love I'm in, I'm yours
I said there ain't no love like the love I'm in
just in time, honey, you rode in
I was a fool then, way back when
Way back when, I saw your face
Me and my heart were caught way off base
In the last inning of a losing game where
You go to steal home, you come in safe
And you win it all,
Honey believe me when I say
There aint no way to go way back when, my love
And there ain't no love like the love I'm in I'm yours
I said there ain't no love like the love I'm in
At the end of the movie, the lovers win
I was a fool then,
And I'm just musing bout it all
To show you how lost I was
Before I let you in
I'm taking it way back
Way back when
Uh huh...take it way back, way back when
Yeah there ain't no way to go way back when, my love
And there ain't no love like the love I'm in, I'm yours
I said there ain't no love like the love I'm in
just in time, honey, you rode in
I was a fool then,
I didn't know you then, way back when

Best Friend
03:52
|

I know this kid, he’s a punk and a dummy
Drinks big red and smokes all his money
He got a broke trampoline in the back yard
Says I'm gonna jump all the way up to heaven
It's so hard
Well, I got a friend, works down at the station
Taking 911 calls every evening
She get off late head to the ocean
Calls me up, says
it's coming in waves that evil emotion
And nobody can help me like you can
Nobody can help me like you can
When I am so low you're my best friend
Nobody can help me like you
Me and my girl, never gonna break up
we know how to fight, we know how to make up
'Cause at the end of a rope you want a knot that'll hold up
Honey in the end, we all want love
We all want love
And nobody can help me like you can
Well nobody can help me like you can
When I am so low you're my best friend
Nobody can help me like you

I Believe The Light
03:59

Come on up now brother
Lay your bones on down
You got trouble in your mind now brother
Weighing heavy as the rock
You're rolling up the mountainside
Fine now brother
I see your candle way in the back
It flickers in the moonlight all blue like heartbreak
Burning in the night
Til the lights all fade to black
When all the fire in your heart is going out
And all the wreckage and the rain starts fallin
You see it all coming apart, still holding out
There's hope on the way, I heard you say
Oh I believe the light's still shining
It's shining through the dark
And the darkness, it has not overcome it
It will not overcome it
Come on up now sister
Lay your body on down
You're shaking like a palm
In a hurricane baby
Bending in the wind til your
Back is touching the ground
Fine now sister
I see that candle in the rain, the light
Flickers in the flood when you hold it like that
Up above your head for a breath
When the water's high
Oh I Believe The Light
You say oh I believe the light's still shining
It's shining through the dark
And the darkness it has not overcome it
It will not overcome it
Oh I believe the light's still shining
It's shining through the dark
And the darkness it has not overcome it
It will not overcome it

Heartbreak City
03:09
|

My part of town is 10 blocks long
Catches the morning light and cuts it
Into the brightest neon sign
That ever hung above a street
You might wander on your own
Or you might bring another down with you
To do that lonely dance of love
Say get up on your feet
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, no love you won't find any
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak
Get off when the sun goes down
Every joint on the strip turns up and
Shadows strum the baddest blues
That ever played half a beat
You might hum along your own
Or you might join another in singing
So do that lonely dance of love
Well you got a front row seat
Step right up, Welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, no love you won't find any
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak
It ain't free baby
Step right up, Welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, no love you won't find any
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak City
Step right up, welcome to Heartbreak

Keep On
03:05
|

Slow motion, and a heartbeat
busting out of the middle of my chest
With the way you're speaking to me
It's a bold notion, I see in your eyes
If we're gonna move, you gotta make a move baby
I'm hanging out on the line
So come on come on the midnight's only laying in the dark til the morning
Don't wait around for too long honey
You can't you can't you can't
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover
In a sea of commotion, you're the calm
I love all the sweet talk...
But turn the walkin on
I don't need the ocean, or a glass of wine
Let that needle go down in the groove of
the record
Put your hand in mine
Come on come on the midnight's only laying in the dark til the morning
Don't wait around for too long honey
You can't you can't you can't
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover that way
Keep on treatin a lover

Set the scene there you are
Evening dress falling hard
For the moment and the man
and the quiet
Enter me, in your head
That one word that he says
If you don't want me there
I suggest you remember
Picture this and the sound of my hair coming down
All the notes in his hands playing in tune
Cause we sounded good, we were (it went bad)bad,
But we forgot (lost)what we had,
My and my other boy we set the dark on fire
Picture this and the sound of my hair coming down
Were the notes in your hands playing in tune
Did we sound good, was it that bad
All I hear is you saying that
You and your other boy (me and my boy
Don't set the dark on fire
Picture this and the sound of my hair coming down
All the notes in his hands playing in tune
Cause we sounded good, we went bad
Why'd you bring up the past

Ain't Gonna Give Up
03:44
|

When them bells start ringing
When that long day is through
When that choir stops singing
When your blues get too blue
Yeah your blues get too blue
I'm gonna be there in that season
In that season of change
When that calm it ain't calming
When that storm starts to rage
Yeah that storm, well it's gonna range
And when it blows your heart around
You know where to go to get back on solid ground
I ain't gonna give up on you
When that politician’s lying
When that weather man is too
Through the rain and the dark
I'll leave the light on in your room
I'll leave the light in your room
Cause it's a hard world to live in, honestly
But don't make it harder than it has to be
I ain't gonna give up on you
When you're grown and you know me
When you're grown you may find
That your raising is only
The blind leading the blind
Lord, I'm blind but I'm trying
You got me on this road to be a better man
And I got this love you gotta understand
I ain't gonna give up on you

Rebel
03:30
|

Momma said don't bite the hand that feeds you
That don't mean you gotta to kiss it too
Child I gotta runaway(getaway) sometimes and do my own thing
find someone wiser to listen to
Everybody breathing down your neck baby
(Telling)Lies on lies
You wanna beat down something stronger
I can sympathize
Oh, there's a little rebel
A little rebel in everyone
Daddy he won't fight unless he has to
He taught me that one long ago
But I've seen him up nights unwrapping his hands, he said
That don't mean I'm not ready to go
'Cause people done talking they start throwing sticks and stones
You can let it all come or use it to light that
Fire in your bones
Oh, there's a little rebel
A little rebel in everyone
So don't go breathing down my neck baby
Not this time
If you're looking for me honey I'll be standing
Right out on that line
Oh, there's a little rebel
A little rebel in everyone

Burn My Heart
04:27
|
|||
All quiet on the shore front tonight
I'm on the boardwalk staring out to nowhere
Fog's heavy I can see your headlights
Coming up behind and vanish into thin air
Heels clicking on the steps to the front door
Heart's locked in the keep, the tide rolls on
Your hair down all battle ready for a war
I don't know how much longer I can hold on
You're at the gates now, I can feel 'em break
The sound of your voice, undermining all my
walls they're shaking, the moves you're making
Surrender I'll listen on one condition
Don't burn my heart to the ground
Shoulda seen it coming down the wire
Arrows fly, a message on the phone
I was so careful of friendly fire
I wouldn't shoot any of my own
And now I'm surrounded by spies
The love in your eyes
Invasion unchecked, victory or death
Radio static, your hands automatically
move under cover
To kill your lover
Don't burn my heart to the ground
