I feel so extraordinary Something's got a hold on me I get this feeling I'm in motion A sudden sense of liberty I don't care 'cause I'm not there And I don't care if I'm here tomorrow Again and again I've taken too much Of the things that cost you too much I used to think that the day would never come I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun My morning sun is the drug that brings me near To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun When I was a very small boy Very small boys talked to me Now that we've grown up together They're afraid of what they see That's the price that we all pay Our valued destiny comes to nothing I can't tell you where we're going I guess there was just no way of knowing I used to think that the day would never come I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun My morning sun is the drug that brings me near To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun I feel so extraordinary Something's got a hold on me I get this feeling I'm in motion A sudden sense of liberty The chances are we've gone too far You took my time and you took my money Now I fear you've left me standing In a world that's so demanding I used to think that the day would never come I'd see the light in the shade of the morning sun My morning sun is the drug that brings me near To the childhood I lost, replaced by fear I used to think that the day would never come That my life would depend on the morning sun |

I don't mind you comin' here
And wastin' all my darn time 'Cause when you're standin' oh so near I kinda lose my mind It's not the perfume that you wear It's not the ribbons in your hair And I don't mind you comin' here And wastin' all my time I don't mind you hanging out And talkin' in your sleep It doesn't matter where you've been As long as it was deep, yeah You always knew to wear it well You look so fancy I can tell I don' t mind you hanging out And talkin' in your sleep You gave me just what I needed I needed some room to feed You gave me just what I needed I needed some room to bleed You gave me just what I needed I needed some room to feed You gave me just what I needed I needed some room to bleed |

Packing up the dreams God's planted
in the fertile soil of you Can't believe the hopes He's granted means a chapter in our lives is through But we'll keep you close as always It won't even seem you've gone Cause our hearts in big and small ways will keep the love that keeps us strong And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them And a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends And with the faith and love God's given Springing from the hope we know We will pray the joy you'll live in is the strength that now you will show But we'll keep you close as always It won't even seem you've gone Cause our hearts in big and small ways will keep the love that keeps us strong And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them And a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends And friends are friends forever if the Lord's the Lord of them And a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end Though it's hard to let you go, in the Father's hands we know That a lifetime's not too long |

Even now your eyes are courting sleep
I'll stay by your side as I have always been Sleep tonight, may your dreams reveal my love for you Beyond what I must do, do you know my plans for you To separate myself from where my treasure lies Then naked in this cold and lonely unforgiving life Be stripped away of all delusions of the man I'd like to be at the moment I am broken parts sure of only weaknesses with nothing left to show No illusions left to hide behind Burning clean has been both agony and absolute release Can I hope to pass this test, is my destiny the wilderness The hardest part of letting go Is trusting you with everything In laying bare my soul is truly seeing who I really am Father what is man that You are mindful of him Can I pass this test, is my destiny this wilderness To stand alone against a life of wretchedness Impossible to hope and so I plead Your graciousness show me your glory May my life reflect your presence And never again find myself in anything less The hardest part of letting go Is trusting you with everything In laying bare my soul is truly seeing who I really am Father what is man that You are mindful of him |

She wore blue
her back of blue shoes she wore green, they wear it anyway She and the car went back through the red light stop i forgot all my memories I see red when I see you bells ring at 3 Am I get mad, drinks get spilled Five past two I dont feel sad But then I see you and I see red I cant look down Or I might follow you I might follow in your footsteps I see your shoulder the sun down Whats the luck And I had to hunt, I had to hunt you I see red when I see you bells ring at 3 Am I get mad, drinks get spilled Five past two I dont feel sad But then I see you and I see red Dont feel sad But then I see you Dont feel sad But then I see you And I see red He sees the sun come up and she needs to rest Here it comes creeping so close to the bed Goodbye to darkness I see your shining face Shes always thinking about the facts of love I see red when I see you bells ring at 3 Am I get mad, drinks get spilled Five past two I dont feel sad But then I see you and I see red |

Beauty sat bathing by a spring where fairest shades did hide her
the winds blew calm the birds did sing the cool streams ran beside her my wanton thoughts enticed mine eye to see what was forbidden but better memory said "fie" so vain desire was chidden hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny into a slumber then I fell when fond imagination seemed to see but could not tell her feature or her fashion but even as babes in dreams do smile and sometimes fall a weeping so I awaked as wise this while as when I fell a-sleeping hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny say man are you down for doing something positive in the community? well not really well ain't you worried about doing the right thing? well I don't really care Beauty sat bathing by a spring where fairest shades did hide her the winds blew calm the birds did sing the cool streams ran beside her my wanton thoughts enticed mine eye to see what was forbidden but better memory said "fie" so vain desire was chidden hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny hey nonny nonny oh hey nonny nonny |

On the road again
I just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is makin' music with my friends And I can't wait to get on the road again On the road again Goin' places that I've never been Seein' things that I may never see again I can't wait to get on the road again On the road again Like a band of gypsies we go down highway We're the best of friends Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way. And our way Is on the road again I just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is makin' music with my friends And I can't wait to get on the road again On the road again Like a band of gypsies we go down highway We're the best of friends Insisting that the world keep turnin' our way.

Lord Almighty
I feel my temperature rising Higher higher It's burning through to my soul Girl, girl, girl You gonna set me on fire My brain is flaming I don't know which way to go Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love Ooh, ooh, ooh I feel my temperature rising Help me, I'm flaming I must be a hundred and nine Burning, burning, burning And nothing can cool me I just might turn into smoke But I feel fine Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love It's coming closer The flames are licking my body Please won't you help me I feel like I'm slipping away It's hard to breathe And my chest is a-heating Lord have mercy I'm burning a hole where I lay Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of a choir You light my morning sky With burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love I got a hunk, a hunk of burning love |

As the minutes pass I look to you
I know you're not all right I'm past the point of thinking straight I can only watch and cry Don't say the words that mean the end Don't tell me to go on Don't leave behind an only song To wish that you weren't gone As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? I lived my life knowing now Imagining you here Knowing what would take your life And counting all my tears Did you see this then? Did you think of how You would tell someone I have to leave now? As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? One step away One step away One step away One step away As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? |

Broke down, derailed
The passion fleeting Misplaced a sense of urgency Do we believe and keep on trying? Do we concede our will to be What will it take for us? The years have led us to this evening And can desire be enough? What else is left for us to say? Two years, we'll walk, we won't look back Two years to never have A love that felt so right So many times we were let down So many times we found A reason to let go We've played this scene, still making efforts One theme, one dream we hope is true Despite ourselves, our careless reasons A mean, a need to carry through What will it take for us? The years have led us to this evening And can desire be enough? What else is left for us to say? Two years, we'll walk, we won't look back Two years to never have A love that felt so right So many times we were let down So many times we found A reason to let go And after you have hit the floor You question to stand up for more The odds are looking very slim There's less of you and more of them Is this for nothing? Do we care? The nameless faces unaware How many times to kiss the ground To get up for another round What will it take for us? The years have led us to this evening And can desire be enough? What else is left for us to say? Two years, we'll walk, we won't look back Two years to never have A love that felt so right So many times we were let down So many times we found A reason to let go |

Sunday night has come again (And still I cannot sleep) Hidden lives have come to a head (No more secrets left to keep) And now that everything is gone (The morning sun seems bittersweet) Has the day begun already? And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me? I try to make it through the day (Too confused to disbelieve) Did it used to be this way? (I try to remember speaking) But you I thought would understand (Appreciate my weekness) Tell me I can be a man And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of... What's left inside to see? These captured thoughts, surrounding jealousy No hope, do you believe? If left alone these words would bury me Still need to sing this boy to sleep In the stillness of his room Present a melody of peace Beckon dreams to follow soon But if there's no one left but him Then the curtain has been drawn A wasted life deserves no song And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me |

It seems so long since we would waste away In the afternoon Give ourselves the reason for the need To shy away from what was true So take All that I am And love me for this You know you can trust me when I say You don't have to try You already are Somebody different so don't Look at them and wait for change I know you're not the same Who are they to you now that you have A life that you respect Old enough to know perfection is Something no one ever has So take All that I am And love me for this You know you can trust me when I say You don't have to try You already are Somebody different so don't Look at them and wait for change I know you're not the same Don't take this The wrong way But I can't help to notice You're trying Way too hard I don't want you... to... go I can say these words I know I am just the same But we can't live Always looking back Wishing there was more to blame Take all that I am And love me for this You know you can trust me when I say You don't have to try You already are Somebody different So take All that I am And love me for this You know you can trust me when I say You don't have to try You already are Somebody different so don't Look at them and wait for change I know you're not the same |

Cruising out friday night once again
In my 305 "71 A turbo hydromatic buzzing inside As I wonder what I'll do for fun It's by no means, what I'd call A souped up perfect ride But this baby's mine And the body looks fine So what if it runs slow? You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova The carburetor doesn't fit My six pack always stalls The transmission got a leak to add To the broken mount I saw It's by no means, what I'd call A souped up perfect ride But this baby's mine And the body looks fine So what if it runs slow? You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova I know you think your Honda Hatchback's pretty cool But with that spoiler son you look just like a fool You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova |

Broken on the inside
Laughing on the outside A smile that could break your heart Crying on the bedspread Blacking out brain dead Wondering where you are-are-are This is the way I feel With my hands over my heart I pledge I'm real, bless me Father I am weak I am not strong And it doesn't matter if I get my way Talking heads confuse me They spit out words that knock me down If I could be so disillusioned Maybe I would not care But... This is the way I feel With my hands over my heart I pledge I'm real, bless me Father I am weak I am not strong And it doesn't matter if I get my way So guard my soul Surround my world They took my esteem away And I want this in your name This is the way I feel With my hands over my heart I pledge I'm real, bless me Father I am weak I am not strong And it doesn't matter if I get my This is the way I feel With my hands over my heart I pledge I'm real, bless me Father I am weak I am not strong And it doesn't matter if I get my If I get Doesn't matter if I get my way |

You see our face
And know our name By the way we hold our stare One look at us It's obvious That we don't even care We've been around your kind before You sit around the place And all you ever do is run your mouth We'll rock as you walk out the door But cant you hear the crowd? They're screaming they want more We grind your nerves As you salute The make up of our band And your choice words To bring us down Match the finger in your hand We've been around your kind before You sit around the place And all you ever do is run your mouth We'll rock as you walk out the door But cant you hear the crowd? They're screaming they want more [crowd screaming] We've been around your kind before You sit around the place And all you ever do is run your mouth We'll rock as you walk out the door But cant you hear the crowd?

No take backs No matter how long until this ends The longer this season The harder the steps to forgive What I want I know I can't have You played it safe now you wish she had I'll take the time to mention I hope to stick around You made your name for me Despite your joy and pride Condescend me don't let me down I know you can Ask me a question to prove to you I'm not a man What I want I know I can't have You played it safe now you wish she had I'll take the time to mention I plan to stick around You play your games with me By now I'm not surprised All the love I have is failing for you So please stop pushing me Into this small box that you have made I will not go I'm not the same What I want I know I can't have You played it safe now you wish she had I'll take the time to mention I plan to stick around Don't act so surprised You made your name for me |

When all the lights have left the room
Will you still stand next to me and softly say ""I love you anyway""? My yesterdays are haunting me Reminders of those moments When I could not rely on feelings that would die And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... You've heard this sad story before I'm not the first to have one The pain they left behind When reasons were so hard to find You wait for me to let it go But you won't wait forever I know you've had enough Understand that I am still trying And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... Fall on me Remind my worries That your words mean much more than my Need to always feel this way I want you here inside my fear I want the love I lost in tears I see your beauty, inside grace I know I can't make this mistake And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... |

I haven't seen you for so long Remembering those years we lived And it was always easy We never gave it that much thought Then you noticed my own fears Then it was over Now I see you here Well some things don't last forever I won't pretend How hard was it to leave your closest friend? You grew up way too fast And I never did What have we learned Through all the years since then? I felt that all it took was trust Another victim of ideals No more inside but you could see this You never hid me from your thoughts I made believe to hear Held the blame I know I let you go But some things don't last forever I won't pretend How hard was it to leave your closest friend? You grew up way too fast And I never did What have we learned Through all the years since then? But life will not wait up Still I'm left here thinking I have learned enough Can I set down the past? Ignore what did not last? Will you? I haven't seen you for so long Remembering those years we lived And it was always easy I'm tired of always looking back I've given you my years My life goes on So it's goodbye my dear Some things don't last forever I won't pretend How hard was it to leave your closest friend? You grew up way too fast And I never did What have we learned Through all the years since then? |

Your words are biting
As you keep trying To bleed conviction But tell me who are you To rate on what I do? Well I know what I got And what I feel I said It's alright It's alright It's alright You can knock me down But I know that It's alright It's alright It's alright I feel you coming Just to tell me That I'm nothing But I can't hear you And you can't take me Where I know It's alright It's alright Your cause is your own Disguised to condone What you feel is your right But who is backing you To tell me what to do? Well I know what I got And what I feel I said It's alright It's alright It's alright You can knock me down But I know that It's alright It's alright It's alright I feel you coming Just to tell me That I'm nothing But I can't hear you And you can't take me Where I know It's alright It's alright Well I know what I got And what I feel I said It's alright It's alright It's alright You can knock me down But I know that It's alright It's alright It's alright I feel you coming Just to tell me That I'm nothing But I won't hear you And you can't take me Where I know It's alright It's alright |

It was a soft summer night when you came into my life
I thought it was a dream when your hand reached out for me there was something there that I couldn't compare and I knew that you were the only one for me seasons change It was a cool autumn's eve when you sensed that I was leaving a tear came to your eye but I just let it run dry you said don't go away but I just left you anyway I wasn't sure if you were the one for me seasons change It was a cold winter's morning I had been up all night crying I knew I'd done you wrong, I'd been astray for oh so long I'm on my knees in pain I wish things had stayed the same and I just hope that you will take me back seasons change It was a warm spring's night when you let me back inside I thought it was a dream but you still cared for me your love filled my heart nothing could tear us apart and I knew that you were the only one for me seasons change |

Last night I laid in bed and thought about it all what was it that had made us fall I don't regret anything that I said to you the choice we made was something we already knew and I'm finding... CHORUS: Yesterday you know will never go away it's best to leave behind if we want to find ourselves some piece of mind Yesterday was when we were happy for tomorrow there is hope but today is hard and lonely so it goes I have to set what I want for us all aside without that it would be a lie I know inside now where I am that this is right from here on out it will be hard I can't deny and I'm finding... (chorus) And yes I am afraid, of what I can't foresee will you still be there? will you be the same, will those feeling change? these thoughts I cannot bear Do you stop to think about a time when we were without doubt when love was something new and so unknown? Can we call ourselves just friends cause why should this just have to end and do you know why I must be alone |

She's late for the first time she don't know where she is she doesn't know where to go lost in her driving, angry and crying she don't know what she knows how could this happen she thought she was careful a tear comes into her eye now lost on a strange road she pulls to a dead stop she bows her head and starts to cry She starts to cry, she says, ""Scared Am I"" She gets out of her car she steps out in the cold and thinks of what she's been through no one around her no one to help her to tell her what she should do ""am I alone now?"" ""am I disowned now?"" she stares into the clouded sky rain starts to fall down mixing with her tears she falls on her knees and starts to cry the rain smooth and steady falls on to her face the rain it seems to be quite warm she can't help but wonder the soft rumbling thunder the soothing rain despite the storm is trying to tell her that things will be better there's hope that springs into her eye she knows in her future that things will be all right she lifts her head and starts to cry |

There's just one thing that I love more than anything
I hold it so near to my heart. It has just one gear and a pair of blue training wheels, A headlight to see in the dark. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes. It has pinwheels and a purple banana seat, Loud cards in the spokes as they bend. It has a big horn that I honk when you're in my way, So I don't run over my friends. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes I ride my bike to the girl that I like, And she looks at me and my bike. A tear fills her eye as she's filled with great pride, When I ask her to take a ride. Me and my girl, we ride all over town on it. My guide is the street and the sun. We stop for a shake--I pretend well share all of it, When I hit the eject button. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes. I like my bike. It's not like other bikes. |

Once there was a time when I was too naive
But that was all changed when you set your eyes on me You claimed you were a freind a harmless little touch But then my life shattered when that touch was too much (chorus) I dont know when I will start to feel again The heart insde of me in pain Oh my memories they burn slowly in my mind It's burning what i have away I wrestle with my thoughts becoming more defiled For now there is a hate where love used to reside Now I cannot find the strength to life my head Where there once was honor lies deprivatiy instead (chorus) One day it will shine again This cloud will be no longer When that day comes I'll know why Because I've been made stronger I'm facing whats ahead by what is in my past A terrible chapter for the writer to have grasped The trials that seem so hard are hard to comprehend I face my life keeping a one eye on the end |

So whats the point to stay away
It hurts the same either way We'll hang out when you come home And I'll still end up alone But that's the choice I have made Who thought I would end up here In the same place after three years I never was this way before Never wanted something more And now I can't just walk away Please don't look at me I can't stand to see you cry It kills me to know that I'm the only reason why Sometimes I want to try and forget what I know Instead of watching myself try to let you go Remember when you said to me One two three words and that you'd be Always there so always know That no matter if you go I will still be right here Please don't look at me I can't stand to see you cry It kills me to know that I'm the only reason why Sometimes I want to try and forget what I know Instead of watching myself try to let you go Maybe I'm wrong and maybe I'm right Or maybe we're just fools caught up in something Something that we don't know what to do with Something that we can't handle just yet |

As the minutes pass I look to you
I know you're not all right I'm past the point of thinking straight I can only watch and cry Don't say the words that mean the end Don't tell me to go on Don't leave behind an only song To wish that you weren't gone As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? I lived my life knowing now Imagining you here Knowing what would take your life And counting all my tears Did you see this then? Did you think of how You would tell someone I have to leave now? As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? One step away One step away One step away One step away As a boy I held your hand I never wanted you to leave I could not ever understand And now I'm here in disbelief Do you have to say goodbye? |

Sunday night has come again (And still I cannot sleep) Hidden lives have come to a head (No more secrets left to keep) And now that everything is gone (The morning sun seems bittersweet) Has the day begun already? And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me? I try to make it through the day (Too confused to disbelieve) Did it used to be this way? (I try to remember speaking) But you I thought would understand (Appreciate my weekness) Tell me I can be a man And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of... What's left inside to see? These captured thoughts, surrounding jealousy No hope, do you believe? If left alone these words would bury me Still need to sing this boy to sleep In the stillness of his room Present a melody of peace Beckon dreams to follow soon But if there's no one left but him Then the curtain has been drawn A wasted life deserves no song And now ashamed of who I am I missed what everyone could see Always a fight for me to change Into the man you want me to be A better man that shares my name Can I look into his eyes and see a reflection of me |

Cruising out friday night once again
In my 305 "71 A turbo hydromatic buzzing inside As I wonder what I'll do for fun It's by no means, what I'd call A souped up perfect ride But this baby's mine And the body looks fine So what if it runs slow? You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova The carburetor doesn't fit My six pack always stalls The transmission got a leak to add To the broken mount I saw It's by no means, what I'd call A souped up perfect ride But this baby's mine And the body looks fine So what if it runs slow? You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova I know you think your Honda Hatchback's pretty cool But with that spoiler son you look just like a fool You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova You want it Come get it My Chevy Nova |

When all the lights have left the room
Will you still stand next to me and softly say ""I love you anyway""? My yesterdays are haunting me Reminders of those moments When I could not rely on feelings that would die And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... You've heard this sad story before I'm not the first to have one The pain they left behind When reasons were so hard to find You wait for me to let it go But you won't wait forever I know you've had enough Understand that I am still trying And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... Fall on me Remind my worries That your words mean much more than my Need to always feel this way I want you here inside my fear I want the love I lost in tears I see your beauty, inside grace I know I can't make this mistake And will I listen And watch you fade away? Or can I wake up And trust you when you say... |

It was a soft summer night when you came into my life
I thought it was a dream when your hand reached out for me there was something there that I couldn't compare and I knew that you were the only one for me seasons change It was a cool autumn's eve when you sensed that I was leaving a tear came to your eye but I just let it run dry you said don't go away but I just left you anyway I wasn't sure if you were the one for me seasons change It was a cold winter's morning I had been up all night crying I knew I'd done you wrong, I'd been astray for oh so long I'm on my knees in pain I wish things had stayed the same and I just hope that you will take me back seasons change It was a warm spring's night when you let me back inside I thought it was a dream but you still cared for me your love filled my heart nothing could tear us apart and I knew that you were the only one for me seasons change |

"if i understood back then what is so easy to see now
i could have stopped myself from falling far behind the changes i want will only come if i can turn things down so i search my heart where i know he lies but then i turn around chorus: i should have walked away i should have walked away i should have walked away (some "whoa"ing) with each passing day i feel the way i did the day before and the things that haunt me stay the same i wont let them go i pray and ask for help but then walk down that cursed road where one waits with what i crave and my lusting hunger grows chorus sometimes i must give up things that i want so bad but it's these things in the end that i wished i'd never had chorus " |

Got a phone call on this rainy night It was a call that I'd dread for all my life My son was driving on a winding road When he lost control My mind is spinning all around in circles And I think to myself Never I know what tomorrow brings with it Never I know what's in store But all I know is my faith to never lose No never, no never Finally get there, to the twisted wreck I see my son with a bloody broken neck I take his hand and place it near my heart And his last words were ""Don't you worry dad, I'll see you someday"" And he dies in my arms Never I know what tomorrow brings with it Never I know what's in store But all I know is my faith to never lose No never, no never His breath has left him, and his eyes have closed Oh my son, how your body's growing cold Tears are pouring, falling from my face And I shut my eyes So sorrow starts to seep in my sad soul So I say to myself Never I know what tomorrow brings with it Never I know what's in store All I know is my faith to never lose No never, no never |
