Its so crazy living in this world
Separating the stone and pearl
Like we do in the every day
Turn our attention this way
To ride up on the thing you do
I just walk up straight to you
Tell you what you probably know
Theres a light that always shows
Your Sweet Eyes
I cant turn back anymore
Opportunity at my front door
Showing me I should get this way
You dont get asked every day
Change your mind and you change
Your plans
Then your heart starts to understand
What youve got right next to you
Realize whats coming through
Your Sweet Eyes
All I got to do when Im sad
I just think about the times weve had
And all my fears just drift into space
Theres nothing that can erase
Your Sweet Eyes
Theres a star in the northern sky
Captivating me as I walk by
Showing me what I can become
Leave behind what is lost or won
Somethings different with me, can you see
The truth is starting to come out of me
As I think about the hope I feel
I leave behind the world for something real
Your Sweet Eyes

This Sunday, You were blowin' through my mind.
Like Tuesday, You were burnin' in my eyes.
I hoped today could be just kind of my way
'Cause it so much matters that you're there;
And I'd hoped today could lead me into your way,
But I fell down on some disrepair.
The sparks here, they can lead up the town.
But it's dark here, If I don't have you around.
So I hoped today would lead me kind of your way,
And the sun (would) be shining on my face;
And I'd hoped the road would lead me to your doorway,
But I fell down on some disrepair.
So when the sun, meets the sky,
I'm gonna take a ride,
And get to where I do;
When your love, is gonna call me home,
I will run to you, the way you want me to;
Oh we'll sing.
Oh I hoped today would lead me kind of your way,
With a love, and treasures, we'd find there;
And through all the fog, the cracks, the cogs, a gateway;
There I'd find someone to repair me.
So when the sun, meets the sky,
I'm gonna take a ride, and get to where I do;
With your love, is gonna call me home,
I will run to you, the way you want me to;
So when the sun, meets the sky,
I'm gonna take a ride, and get to where I do;
When your love, is gonna call me home,
I will run to you, the way you want me to;

Long ago, from the wonderland,
was a girl, named Eve.
She came to earth from the mermaid sea,
That is how love began.

Speak of love, inside you
With a mystic smile.
Let us be beside you
Showed us how to be
But she's just here to stay with us awhile
There is much more to see.

I'll be seeing you
Climb into the skyride for a better view
Let's make connection get on back in style
While we are here, in the Venus Isle.
Then Eve said "I miss you"
Now it's time to go
And, "I love you"
This is not my home
and from her isle, she said her goodbyes,
And blasted off to the stars.

So it starts with you
Let there be no secrets, all that we can do
Let's make a symphony of a thousand smiles
While we are here in these Venus Isles.

Oh Elaine, you've broken my dreams
It's not as it seemed before
I can see it don't mean to you
What it could mean to me
Been a long time, as the road winds
I'm sideways in a great haze
I turn, turn the page
Oh Elaine, I'm going insane
It's cold and the rain won't do
I'm told I must make this turn
I guess it won't be with you
Been a long time, as the road winds
I'm sideways in a great haze
I turn, turn the page
So long, I bid you farewell
I wish you the best, you know
Oh Elaine, if you change your mind
It's me you can find again
Turn, turn the page

Take me from these earth bound chains
I must find it once again
The meaning of equality
We will never hide in shame
But forever guard the flame
Burning for eternity

Hundreds of nights
Oh, my body cries
A trail of tears

Promises sometimes don't keep
Freedom, put to sleep, and now I know
(I lay my body down)
Written with the words you tell
Stories, a lesson in life from long ago

Hold on, hold dear
The time is near
When you'll know why
The spirit flies

Children carried on your back
Driven through the wind and cold
How have you become so few
But in the end oh, I will see
Your spiritual liberty
Forever to be with you

Take me from these earth bound chains
I must find it once again
The meaning of equality
We will never hide in shame
But forever guard the flame
Burning for eternity

Hundreds of nights
Oh, my body cries
A trail of tears

Promises sometimes don't keep
Freedom, put to sleep, and now I know
(I lay my body down)
Written with the words you tell
Stories, a lesson in life from long ago

Hold on, hold dear
The time is near
When you'll know why
The spirit flies

Children carried on your back
Driven through the wind and cold
How have you become so few
But in the end oh, I will see
Your spiritual liberty
Forever to be with you

I think this world was made for you,
Because of the wondrous things you do;
I saw an empty name, turn to a brighter fl ame
That was the gift that you gave me,
It was your love that saved me.
Something so rare and tender, deserves complete surrender
I want to place the Sunnaround you.
I dont think that I ever knew my heart
Since that first love, it fell apart.
Not knowing what to do, until that one was you
I kept anticipating, that kept my heart from breaking.
Now that I get to hold you
And say words I havent told you
I want to place the Sunnaround you.
Sometimes, people keep holding out
Until they are sure what its all about.
So long the time, weve had to wait,
Cause theres no more need to hesitate
To start our life to be, I know Ill surely see
Every investigation, shows me the inspiration
That there just is no other, to learn of love together
So I place the sun around you
But not just my heart sways toward you
The whole wide worlds made for you
Thats why I place the Sunnaround you.

Rose and marshall Jacob Miller
Lived in Santa Fe
Jacob never wore his side guns
Till news broke out
Black Bart was back in town
Bart was gunning for the sherriff
Revenge burned in his eyes
Rosie tried to stop the marshall
As he left tears fell from her eyes
Showdown in town
Don't you lose your life
Put down your gun
Stay inside tonight
Jacob's men were on the rooftop
With artillery
Shots rang out Bart's men were fallin'
Someone's callin' marshall's
On the ground
And Rose ran up to him and cried
Oh Lord
Oh will you ever see
Oh what you mean to me
And will we always be together
Oh together
Chorus
Showdown in town
Lord what have they done
Cause in the end
No one really won

There's no such thing as freedom
Without some responsibility
All this shock and surprise
But we've been throwing out a mean boomerang
And now it's coming back at us.

Wouldn't you like to see a change?
Are you willing to pay?
Stopping the screams and guns and pain
I'd like to throw them away.
We put the innocent to test
By all the thoughts we invest
Children learn from what excites us
That's such a sad legacy.

Do you really think no connection?
With the polarity we emit?
And worship walks in the wrong direction
We keep feeding it
And I am thinking something
But I'm really doing nothing.

Wouldn't you like to see a change?
Are we willing to pay?
Stopping the screams and guns and pain
I'd like to throw them away
We put the innocent to test
By all the thoughts we invest
The children learn from what excites us
That's such a sad legacy.

Wouldn't you like to see a change?
Are we willing to pay?
Stopping the screams and guns and pain
I'd like to throw them away
We put the innocent to test
By all the thoughts we invest
Wouldn't you like to see a change?
Bustin' the sad legacy.
