Shine 03:57
I know a place where we can go I'll see you there later You've got a face everyone knows cause they've seen it in the papers You don't have to run and hide, No You don't have to go You don't have to be alone, you're not so unknown When it started I was holding you, One small kiss, [D]not on the lips When we started everything was new that’s all it took, to lose my grip When you see me in a public place, well you can say "hi there" And when they see that we're holding hands well, we won't deny it Sometimes love is holding you, If you let go, [D]just this one time Suddenly love will pour over you Open up and [D]everything shines Everything shines Everything shines Everything shines and shines and shines and shines shines and shines and shines Everything

Believe 03:09
Dreams of something better. Lost without a clue? Don't give up, no never Believe. Its up to you Sometimes I close my eyes to see Just how this world was meant to be but I can't find it anywhere and I go on breathing the air Bring your friends together Help them make it through Write the world a letter It will call back to you Sometimes the thoughts escape my lips Of motorcars and sailing ships To seek adventure everywhere Just turn the handle if you dare Get yourself together Fighting out of blue Don't give up, no never Believe its up to you.

Big Pockets 03:58
She has great big pockets where she carries all of us No matter what we look like if we're big or if we're small In her great big pockets she carries us along everyone's included, and knows that they belong La la la la La la la La la la la La la La la la la La la la La la la la La la Before she sewed them in we would wander everywhere, dancing on the counters, round the porch and under chairs Totally unsupervised, let loose inside the house, expecting to be trampled or get bitten by a mouse La la la la La la la La la la la La la La la la la La la la La la la la La la She strolls in fields of dewy grass At the breaking of the day, Turns her pockets inside out and urges us to play She smiles to see us hide and seek, counting one to ten, And when the darkness comes around invites us all back in She shines like the sun She looks after everyone When trouble comes she is aware and gently calls us back inside Inside her big pockets are every rare delight, Rainbows, and swimming holes, puppy dogs and kites, Everyone is lost in play, and leaving quite a mess, She yawns and shakes her head, expecting nothing less La la la la La la la La la la la La la

Strong 05:22
I was just a small boy when she left home Riding in the back seat was all that I'd know The day she left us dad sat me down Said there ain't much to it, "boy just be strong" Met her in a small bar outside Tuscon Our love was so strong, The best that I'd known But late nights in a red dress, note by the phone Her parting caress, "lover be strong" Why don't you come back?, Why don't you call? If you don't come back, Where will you go? And if you came back, where would you call home? What is it we lack? How could we know? My daughter smiled sweet and looked up to me we had together all that we'd need But her heart was aching, only to be free and the spirit drew her, far away from me Why don't you come back?, Why don't you call? If you don't come back, Where will you go? And if you came back, where would you call home? What is it we lack? How could we know? My father called me, said "boy come home" My body's aching, it won't be too long I listened, He sang, his final song Once more to teach me, how to be strong Why don't you come back?, Why don't you call? If you don't come back, Where will you go? Worried my whole life, that I did wrong When all I needed, was to be strong, was to be strong, oh to be strong, just to be strong

Somethin 04:19
I know something you don't know Drop what you're doing, get ready to go After midnight, you going somewhere? Mess with your fate - I wouldn't dare Wouldn't dare? You can't talk to me like that! I ain't never seen you before and already I can't stand you This is my place - I get to call the shots here, And I say it's time for you to hit the road. I know something you don't know If you're on the list, you ain't going home This won't take long now, don't be afraid Just do as you're told, is all I can say Do as you're told? Don't tell me what to do! You know, maybe I wasn't quite clear, but I don't like you and you should think seriously about getting gone. Or I suspect you're gonna regret ever setting foot in this town I know something, I can't tell Soon you’ll be going to heaven or hell Listen up, you ain't got much time and that this ain’t no joke - soon you'll be mine Ha, Ha, Ha, Your time sir, your time is up! Wow, I did not see that coming. Sorry, I didn't recognize you at first, and, I guess, I shouldn't have insulted you, right? OK, my bad. I'll be good from now on though, I promise. Hey, why don't you let me go and move on to the next guy on that list? What do you think? Sorry boy, That's not for me to say. Go ahead, pack your bags now. You’re coming with me!

Comin Down 04:17
I saw the world take a mighty fall Couldn’t find nothin left at all Pulled myself up from underground Overwhelmed by what I found When it crashed it made a mighty sound Broke apart when it hit the ground Unknown. I surveyed the land Walking forward with an open hand goin up, goin up, comin down goin up, goin up, comin down I thought I heard a young world's cry A muffled sound, an ocean’s breath No stranger, then, it seemed to be Coming from inside of me I saw a man struggle in the snow Leaving traces miles below rising up when others sleep so blind that he could finally see goin up, goin up, comin down goin up, goin up, comin down down, comin down down, comin down goin up, goin up, comin down down down down down goin up, goin up, comin down

Right Now 03:17
You know I love you since a way back when But you never have time to spend with me If you're home Why not open the door? I'd carry your bags, or give you a ride Just to have you by my side - I would If I could Baby that's what I need Give me your love, Give me your love Right Now You know I love you and I like your style Let's get together for a little while - I know, Ooooh yeah I could make you smile Come on baby look into my eyes Can't you see I don't tell no lies - to you Its true I got nothing to hide ... Give me your love, Give me your love Right now You got married and you moved away Maybe there's nothing left to say - who knows It's fate, I'll wait and see He moved out and left you high and dry Did it matter that you really tried? - Maybe You shoulda listened to me ... Give me your love, Give me your love Give me your love, Give me your love Give me your love, Give me your love, Right now, RIGHT NOW!

Mosey 03:08
Mosey around Give yourself some extra space to walk around And then, when you're done Just return back to where you started from Mosey around Down the street, all the way into town Catch a wink, smile a smile, take a long slow breath And look around you, at all you've found Mosey around After you awake Take life for what its worth After all its what you make of it It seems the worldʼs gone crazy lately Bigger and faster is the way Some say jump in but they canʼt make me Follow this creed and youʼll be saved Mosey around Give yourself some extra space to walk around And then, when you're done Just return back to where you started from
