O.A.R.

Tuesday's coming my baby.
I told you Wednesday morning.
It's not too late for us.
My bags aren't out the door, baby.
Don't you know life's a feeling.
But without you it's nothing.
It's not too late for us.
My bags aren't out the door, baby.
Tuesday's coming.
And I'm not gonna leave you here, darling.

It's a shame you can't hear me.
Scream my lungs out believe me.
The miles burn me up.
I'm living just to watch your fire, darling.
I'm headed out for the road now.
The engines hold me while sleeping.
A road might take me away,
But it's sure enough to bring me home, baby.
Tuesday's coming.
And I'm not gonna leave you here, darling.

Tuesday's coming. Seshambeh dareh meyod.

I'm not quite sure how I got here.
A minute passed and I'm on my feet.
I never knew life could taste so good.
I need a little minute, just a moment to breathe.
No matter where I go, no matter who I see
Well I'm remind of my earlier days.
No matter where I roll, no matter what I know
Well I'm reminded of my earlier ways.
But now I keep asking myself.

Wouldn't it be the best damn day if we all took time to breathe?
Just one stolen paragraph in the book's written history.
Don't you sometimes wonder why people are afraid to smile?
Don't look down we're gonna come around and it always come to back, crack time eventually.
Just ascend with me.

I'm not quite sure when I woke up.
The night flew by as I lay asleep.
Who ever knew that life could feel so good?
I need another minute.
Just a moment to breathe.
No matter where I go, no matter who I see
Well I'm reminded of my ealier days.
No matter what I know, no matter where I roll
Well I'm reminded of my earlier ways.
But now I keep asking myself.
Wouldn't it be the best damn day if we all took time to breathe?
Just one stolen paragraph in the book's written history.
Don't you sometimes wonder why people are afraid to smile?
Don't look down we're gonna come around and it always come to back, crack of time eventually.

Wouldn't it be the best damn day?
Wouldn't it be a wonderful day?
Wouldn't it be a glorious day?
If we all took time to smile, made just a minute for you and me.
Wouldn't it be the best damn day? [repeat 4x]

I know it's been a long, long year.
God forbid you to listen to me now.
I may have laid the pressure on good, but since that day
I'll never ask again.

It's funny, it's come right down to this.
I have to steal my time cause you won't give it up for free.
I've been talking to the Moon all night, but the Stars won't say nothing to me.
And though I feel it's easy for a man to grow up
Much harder for a man to grow out.
You may not appear, but I'm standing here My God.
I'll never ask you.

Where have you been?
You could have told me just.
Where have you been?
Cause if you know me you know.
I won't ask why.
They always told me you'd be right on my time.
We're coming around.

I know you're kind of busy right now.
Been a day, but I haven't heard your call.
I climbed a mountain just to get a better view of you.
But I'll never ask again.

It's crazy that we just can't feel the time
And lay down for awhile.
And let life catch your eye.
I've been relaxing with the Wind all day.
But the Sky won't open up for me.
And though I feel it's easy for a man to stand tall.
Much harder for a man to simmer down.
You may not appear, but I'm standing here my God.
I'll never ask you.

Where have you been?
You could have told me just,
Where have you been?
If you know me you know.
I won't ask why.
They always told me you'd be right on my time.
If you give me just a minute of your day,
I see now why you choose to stay away.

Up here life seems more like living,
And living mirrors love.
And love just leaves me breathless.
On we go.

I'll never ask you.
Where have you been?
You could have told me just,
Where have you been?
If you know me you know.
I won't ask why.
They always told me you'd be right on my time.
We're coming around.

You act like you can't see me.
You act like you don't know me.
I just wish you would show me
That you'll be right on my time.

You act like you can't see me.
You act like you don't know me.
I just wish you would show me
That you'll be right on my time. [repeat 4x]

A little boy, alone, he relies on fairytales.
And the moon is his castle late tonight.
Smiling down upon our war, it's funny when you're far away.
But Mr. Moon why you laughing at me?

You cannot blame us for lying to you.
You cannot blame us for crying to you.
Why you laughing at me, Mr. Moon?

The wiser man roams the world.
Looks back upon his days
The moon is a wonder late tonight.
Smiling from above our world
It's easy when you're far away.
But Mr. Moon why you laughing at me?

You cannot blame us for lying to you.
You cannot blame us for crying to you no, no.
Why you laughing at me, Mr. Moon?

You don't need me. You don't want me.
Leave me be while I sleep.

You cannot blame us for lying to you.
And you run away, you run away.
Daytime.
But, the night just brings us back together.
You cannot blame us for crying to you no, no.
It's time we laughed at you, Mr. Moon.

Peter sat on a mountaintop, nothern wind blows through his hair all day long.
Peter never took no time for him to stop.
Just stood right there and he stared.
Singing, oh.

He don't need us anymore, cause life is just too good.
He'll be living everyday and loving like we could.
And that's Peter's song.

Have you ever known a boy, lonely as can be?
A lifetime away he was a child of the free.
So here he stand alone crying at the sea.
It listens, and moves, and holds him.
Singing, oh.

He don't need us anymore, cause life is just too good.
He'll be living everyday, and loving like we could.
And that's Peter's song.

Late one day on the mountaintop Peter swept down the side.
He'd been waiting all his life for one more chance to ride.
But the Sun said, "Son, don't you come around up here anymore."
So Peter topped on his hat and head to the west shore.
Singing Ladanday.
And he's singing it all night long.
Singing Ladanday.
And he's singing it all night long.
And that's Peters song.

Have you ever known a boy lonely as can be?
Lifetimes away we were children of the sea.
And if the Sun and Moon come through
Freedom is a guide.
Hoping that one day we will all try.
Singing Ladanday.
And I'm singing it all night long.
Singing Ladanday.
And I'm singing it all night long.
And that's Peters song.

I took this girl out last night and we left around 12,
We walked along lonely streets and got to know ourselves,
I like to read - she likes to write,
She likes to sleep - and I like to stay up all night,
My friends say I'm crazy and I agree,
But that's okay cause that the way she likes to be

Hey girl come with me and let yourself go
Hey girl come with me and let yourself go

Well we went out late that night and we danced through the night
I was holding on to her and she be gripping it tight, she was
But she didn't care, I didn't mind
I was unaware that she liked to act so kind,
My friends say I'm crazy and I agree,
But thats okay cause thats the way I like to be

I say
Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go,
Hey girl come with me and let yourself go, go, go-oh,
Just let yourself go

Later on that night I took her home,
I asked if she felt alright being alone
So I went inside, she didn't mind,
Took two to decide that I wasn't going home tonight
I see we're both crazy, that's alright with me,
The night was kind of hazy that's the way it's gonna be

I say now
Hey girl, come with me and let yourself go,
Hey girl come with me and let yourself go, go, go-oh,
Just let yourself go, go, go-oh,
Just let yourself go, go, go-oh...
Let yourself go

You said, "Young man, don't rely on a sword.
Cause your words will outlive even time."
I've counted my blessings.
The rest are for you.
Please listen close for awhile,
And breathe, breathe, deep for me James.
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years.
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James.
I'm fine with you here.

I made the mistake once of fearing an end.
Is this life that we live just the world's accident?
Not a chance, so I move on with a smile.
Are you surprised where you are?
So breathe, breathe, deep for me James.
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years.
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James.
I'm fine with you here.

I grew up slow on the heels of the rest.
Left my heart back at home, carried you in my chest.
And I don't feel like crying today.
Why can't we talk for awhile?
And breathe, breathe, deep for me James.
Don't you feel that you're free now from pain?
I've heard about heaven for years.
Can't be sure where you are, wander on blessed James.
I'm fine with you here.

You said, "Son, just listen to me."
But I'm doing fine, James.
So you can sit back and just breathe.
And it's time now to let yourself go.
Hold us close, spin the dream, the curtain will fall but behind it
I see that you're here.

Daddy was a coalminer.
He worked the pits all day.
In Rock Springs, Wyoming.
It was meant to be a stop for a day, became his home nothing more I can say.

Daddy was a part time farmer.
He worked the field for pay.
But he'd rather have new shoes for them horses.
But late one day, them horse run away.
Shouldn't have put the shoes on that way.

Too bad for daddy.
Such a shame he took it all.
So me and mom took the high road.
But it's not like we had a choice at all.

Daddy was a guitar player.
He'd play that joint all night.
Out back in the shack the six-string was his demon.
Maybe one day I could run away, join my dad in a band to play.

Now it's just me and mom here.
Oh, we sit alone all night.
But if you listen close you can hear my daddy playing.
It was meant to be a stop for a day, left us here, now he's on his way.

Too bad for daddy.
Such a shame he took it all.
So me and mom, we took the high road.
But it's not like we have a choice at all.

It's too bad for daddy.
Such a shame he took it all.
So me and mom took the high road.
But it's not like we had a choice at all.
Daddy was a coalminer.

I have been falling again for so long, for so long.
I've been off that track. There's a mystery in that and it's strong.
But once more I'm asking for your time.
A few between the two then I'm gone.
I don't think I'll be coming back.
I'm not coming back.
It seems to me, You & me, aren't where we're supposed to be.
We're lost somewhere on the seventh sea.
I found Time, at least I thought I did.
You slipped away, yeah you slipped my grip.
So this day that I stood my ground, wait for
Old Man Time.

Once again a day's flown by.
On a journey roads got hot.
So hot, I'm walking around unclothed.
Heated to the bone I'm bare-boned.
Bare-boned I'm thrown, dethroned again.
I missed the man by a minute again.
But next time gonna have my shot.
Gonna see me with Time.

It seems to me, you & me, aren't where we're supposed to be.
We're lost somewhere on an endless sea.
I found Time, at least I thought I did.
You slipped away, yeah you slipped my grip.
So this day that I stood my ground
You saw me lost but forget it I'm found.
Right here at the Black Rock lay your cards down.
Mr. Old Man Time.

Oh, I tracked you down old man.
When I walk at night I see you and I follow you old man.
But the Black Rock is never too far away.
I'm dying just to hear what you say.
So next time I'll be comin' round,
Gonna see me with Time.

It seems to me, you and me, where we're supposed to be.
We're lost somewhere on an endless sea.
I found Time, at least I thought I did.
You slipped away, yeah you slipped my grip.
So this day that I stood my ground
You think you lost me, but forget it I'm found.
So right here at the Black Rock lay your cards down Old Man Time.

You're not too far for me.
I've waited my life for just a minute to see.

Never say that nothing ever came from a mouse, anyway.
Might crawl to your house, take that cat away.
Don't let the world tell your mouth that it must say.
Nothing ever came from a mouse, anyway, anyway.

Never say that nothing ever came from a gnat, anyway.
Might fly in your ear, and then he done flown away.
Oh that aggravation can't you ever say.
Nothing ever came from a gnat, anyway, anyway.
Anyway.
Something always comes from the music, anyway.
Came into my life, ripped my blues away.
Oh that stereo is my best friend everyday.
Something always comes from the music anyway, anyway.
Anyway.

Don't you feel the music going to your bones.
And don't you feel that music is life.
Well, I do.
It's like blood ever flowing.
But I pray to God that the music fills the cup.

It gets me off when I'm feeling down.
And I cannot sleep when that music is around.
Well, I live just to move.
So get on up and get that groove back in your move.
A wise man once said.
A wise man once told me he said,
"When music is the one thing that surrounds you.
You feel no pain."

Anyway.

There's a road outside Columbus, Ohio.
Feels like I drove along for years.
this Midwest way of ease it surrounds us.
I can't deny the rhythm here.
And as I pull away from Riverside beside me,
That High Street never looked so good.
I miss my lady even though she often writes me.
She tells me takes of my neighborhood.

Surprise, Surprise, I traveled here.
Four hundred miles from where I'm known.
My friends are here.
A couple years I've spent, I found I have a second home.

As I'm blazing down my trail to education,
There's no bliss in ignorance for me.
I stop and stare, a breath of air might slow me down some.
But that's just fine with me.

Surprise, Surprise, I traveled here.
Four hundred miles from where I'm known.
My friends are here.
A couple years I've spent, I found I have a second home.

I never traveled far.
Two hundred miles to go.
That boulevard will take me home.

Surprise, Surprise, I traveled here.
Four hundred miles from where I'm known.
My friends are here.
A couple years I've spent, I found I have a second home.
Surprise, Surprise, I traveled here.
Four hundred miles from where I'm known.
My friends are here.
A couple years I've spent, I found I have a second home.

Any time now I'm gonna wake up and see the day.
Any time now I'm gonna wake up and find my way.
And by that time now, you're gonna never ever never ever hear me say,
"That was the longest damn day."

Do you ever truly feel that it's a waste of time to live a day?
I mean, deep inside have you convinced yourself there's much more to get out of the way?
But, for me it's that last baby moment before I wake.
It bless my soul, caress my heart, leave me wishing for a brighter day.

Any time now I'm gonna wake up and see the day.
Any time now I'm gonna wake up and find my way.
And by that time now, you're gonna never ever never ever hear me say, "That was the longest
damn day."

Do you ever truly dream and stay inside them before you wake?
I mean, deep inside can you relax the mind and grab the minute like the last one to save?
Well, for me it's that last baby moment before I rise.
It fills me with wonder, it bless my soul, catch the dream before I open my eyes.

Any time now I'm gonna wake up and see the day.
Any time now I'm gonna wake up and find my way.
And by that time now, you're gonna never ever never ever hear me say,
"That was the longest damn day."

One, two, three more days will never be enough for me.
One, two, three more lifetimes will bless my sould for my eyes can see
That I can wake up if I want to.
But I'll just stay inside of my mind.
One, two, three more days will never be enough for me.
One, two, three more lifetimes will bless my mind for my soul is free.

Any time now I'm gonna wake up and see the day.
Any time now I'm gonna wake up and find my way.

A patterned sunrise swept along away the sunrise.
And over these underpasses a towering mountain does rise.
But don't cross the river, not over there.
There will be a mystery revealed and I bet you dare.
And if I am to seek this place y'all can see
Whose Chariot to follow so I can be free?

At night the stars cry.
I gaze upon a lake of backyard.
And under these overpasses a towering mountain does lie.
But don't cross the river, not over there.
There will be a mystery revealed that we're meant to share.
So if I am to seek this place y'all can see
Whose Chariot to follow so I can be free?

Oh no, here we are again.
Oh no, here we are again.

My mamma told me,
"Don't go cross that river."
"Because you might not make it back.
The beast gonna eat your heart."
She said, "Don't go out there.
And stay upon your track."
"This money has torn my family apart and I cannot buy it back."
So of course I built my boat, and I was half upon my way.
And when I got to the other side the water came rushing down.
Washed me away.

Whose Chariot...
Freedom...

Whose Chariot?
Take me home.
Take me home.

Oh no, said I'm out that door again.
I left my house, my money, and my dearest friend.
I'm not going back, Jack, across the river.
Got a little bit of business that I'm doing today.
You didn't fell me, you can't really see no good.
I made my life out of a stack of wood.
I've been moving cross the river today.
But whose chariot take me home?

Whose Chariot?
Take me home.
Hallelujah.
I'm coming home.
Who Chariot gotta will you take me?
Who Chariot will you will you take me?
Who Chariot will you will you take me?
Who Chariot would you pick me up and take me?
Who Chariot gotta will you take me?
Who Chariot just pick me up and take me.
Who Chariot come and get me.
Whose Chariot take me home?
Take me home.
