Born Star
04:55
|
|||
|
Dancing on the inside / But I didn’t know the tune
Another forty-five and change / Another forty-five and change
The rhythm seed was planted / Just wait for it to bloom
Another forty-five and change / But it seemed so far away
Chorus:
And I knew right from the start / That I had it in my heart
I was born to be a star, born to be a star / Born to be a star
I was born / Be a star.
We’ll party on the weekend / We can party every night
Let it shine boy shine / Shine, shine, shine
Every moment I’m not living /Are the times you’ll find me dying
So let’s ride on ride / Ride, ride, ride
[Repeat Chorus]
I’m down on the floor, can you pour me some more / Cuz I
can’t make my way to the bottle
I’ve wasted the day and the night just the same / But I guess it’s
all part of the game
We all may fall, and we all may rise / But we all should be stars
in our own eyes
We all may fall, and we all may rise / We all should be stars
Come dance and feel the beat, feel it / We can set the world on fire
We’ll get high, high and higher / High, high and higher
The doors are always open / And we’ll all be shining bright…
[Repeat Chorus]

Alive
04:32
|
|||
|
Rolling through the dust of an ordinary day
Back against the rack couldn’t see what’s in my way
Smoking like a stack thought I’d take my stake and run
Off without a plan we all need to have some fun
But I’ve taken the turn and I want you to know
That there’s nothing to do but go…
Chorus:
I’m alive / Don’t need to tell me I’m alive
Don’t need to say cuz I’m on it / And I ride like I feel
Taking it all in stride / I’m alive
Just trying to stand high there’s just so much more to see
Restless Joe’s are waiting but they won’t make room for me
So, step right out upside and you’ll get a thing or two
Don’t want to make you nervous it’s just what I seem to do
But I came here to leave and want you to see
That there’s nobody listening but me….
[Repeat Chorus]

Hit the Road
04:12
|
|||
|
Maybe fourteen miles to Boston / Three-thousand cross to sunny LA
Put all my wares behind me / Just a looking for a brighter escape
Still hungry but I’m shaking / Got the wind against my nose
When I get tired of spinning my wheels / Then it’s time that I
hit the road
[Chorus]
Hit the road, hit the road / Not sure where I’m heading today
Going to find my own revolution / And wrangle my worries away
Hit the road, hit the road / Gotta bury my burdenous ways
When I get tired of spinning my wheels / Then it’s time that I
hit the road
Spent all my money on nothing / Spent all my time in vain
When I’m spent from living the doldrums / I’m going to hop a right on that train
Out of boredom or adventure / Always busy looking for something new
When I get tired of spinning my wheels / Then it’s time that I
hit the road
I’ll hit the road when I’m lonely / Hit the road when I’m high
I’ll hit the road and you’ll come with me / So we don’t need to
say goodbye
[Repeat Chorus]

Connections
04:20
|
|||
|
Standing there a waiting / Licking dry her tears
Met her in a parking lot / Just counting down the years
It seemed just like a dream I had / Back when I was ten
I never will forget it / And regret it now and then
But we found the time / Played it right /
And rode the night again
Chorus:
Got one on the counter / Got two in the draw
Got three in my pocket / I forget where I’ve got four
Connecting me, connecting me / I know that I’ll find more
Got five in my suitcase / And I’m heading out the door
Got the letter last night / She sends her smiles to me
The scene was so damn beautiful /I had to turn my cheek
I fell for that one once before / When I was twenty-five
I never will forget it / cuz it sure keeps me alive
And we found the drum / Played it tight /
And rode the night again
[Repeat Chorus]
You’ll never see it coming / So quickly round the bend
Just a simple turning point / Another tale to spin
So, open up your ears / Let what’s to be, just be
And feed upon the beat / That you’ll feel inside of me
And we’ll find the stage / Dance all night /
And ride it once again
[Repeat Chorus]

Fly Someday
05:28
|
|||
|
There needn’t be a reason / Some things happen just the same
Another moment / Another face without a name
I wake up in the morning / And I start it up again
a simple way to make the day flow / And I hope, and I pray that I will…
Chorus:
Fly away / I’m going to fly away someday
And maybe I will find that / wherever I will land / You’ll be there
Fly away / I’m going to fly away someday
And maybe I will find that / Wherever I will land / You’ll take my hand
You’ll take my hand
It’s getting so much harder / Sometimes I just can’t find a friend
Trying take it further / Than my body wants to bend
Gotta go for the gold cuz I’m getting old you know / But it seems so far away
To make it cuz I’m playing it solo / But I hope, and I pray that I will…
[Repeat Chorus]
Hey, I’m falling down / I’ll write my story
Hey, I’m breaking ground /I’ll seek my glory
Hey, got to leave this town / And make my way someday back to you
And I thought I saw you standing there / Thought I had the dime
to call you on the phone
Couldn’t wait another minute cuz you’re slipping, sliding, driving me
out of my mind.
There needn’t be a reason / Some things happen just the same
Another moment / another face for me to frame
I’ll try again tomorrow / Cuz it seems too hard today
To fight against the fears that bind me / But I hope, and I pray that I will…
[Repeat Chorus]

Music Man
04:14
|
|||
|
Born along the highway, Route 59
Fled across the waters through space and time
I’ve been, broken by the beat / I’ve been, high upon my seat
I’ve been wondering what to do and say / To make you mine
Fingers on the keys looking for a rhyme
Playing just to tease but I’ll blow your mind
You never, wanted it to end / Until, we’re all too spent
To keep it altogether and part / Until the next set
Chorus:
Come and see the show I’m a music man / Don’t always get it right,
but I do what I can
Sometimes sailing along these empty streets / Sometimes frying
in a pan, living in a can
But often times just waiting for the chance / To start it up again
Drifting towards the abbey where I know I’ll get my fix
Putting up this masquerade to show you all my tricks
I’ve been, down and out, up and about / I’ve been lonely, I’ve been high
I’ve been waiting for my time to play / That great gig in the sky
[Repeat Chorus]
Starting to remember the things I should forget
Starting to find comfort through this shadow of regret
But along this empty highway / Like a vast and endless sea
I’m starting to find out / That I’ve got to start / Got to start with me
[Repeat Chorus]

One-Way Town
03:46
|
|||
|
Along the pavement, kicking round got nowhere good to go
The line of people waiting there, but I’ve seen that show
Bar feels empty despite the crowded rooms of drink and style
Seen her many times before but never with that smile
Was hoping that a friend or two would finally come around
Rolling down a one-way street, in this one-way town
I’ve got a bet she hasn’t yet been dying to find out
Ducking through these shadows been making all the rounds
Lost and then I’m found again sitting, doing time
Looking for somebody’s dream because I don’t have one of mine
Fought my way to get here just to be turned down
Rolling down a one-way street, in this one-way town
Buds should be forever, and girls should look my way
Took just one glance and they were gone, and I was left alone
The trying is the hardest when chance is less than none
One more empty evening another night outdone
Packed up my hopes and left them I didn’t make a sound
Rolling down a one-way street, in this one-way town
Fate left me here to make it, but I should be west coast bound
Instead of rolling down this one-way street, in this one-way town

Get You Back
03:18
|
|||
|
There’s no more time for begging / There’s no more time to cry
There’s no more time to listen / To the way you say goodbye
The days are gone for singing / Someone else’s song
I could have done it better / But I didn’t do it wrong
Chorus:
Not crazy about your mother / Not crazy about your dad
Not crazy about your makeup / Or the playthings that you had
Not crazy about the way / You left me in my tracks
But I’m crazy and I know, I’m going to get you back
I’m crazy and I know, I’m going to get you back
You said to take the low road / Cuz you were going high
You said that it was history / But never told me why
But I’m not the kind of man / Whose gonna pack it up and run
Wanna be your one and only / But I’m not the only one
[Repeat Chorus]

Long Daze
04:10
|
|||
|
Hollow halls are echoing sounds like yesterday
Broken strings are begging but I, don’t want to play
I linger on the shadows, and build a barricade
Stuck between my own lies and the choices she made
Chorus:
But I, can’t pull out and I, can’t push through / I doubt I’ll ever make my way back to you
Cuz its four long days since you’ve been gone / Four days since I’m on my own
You’ve been busy, and I’ve been dizzy / Running round this town
with an ache in my heart
Put on my best CD, take in a ten-star movie
Drown out the hectic quiet of my, apparent normalcy
Cigarette smoking and, a friend was joking saying I’d
Be better off with a laugh or two
[Repeat Chorus]
Wonder what it’s going to take to get you back / Wonder what I got to do
to get you back
Wonder what I have to do to get you back / Wonder what I need to do
to get you back
[Repeat Chorus]

Bowlful of Hurt
04:42
|
|||
|
Poking holes in empty spaces
Don’t know just where to turn, cuz the buzz is seeping out again
Slamming doors in smiling faces
Would you leave it all behind, resign and then just walk away?
Sunshine distant, striking panes ablaze then fade
Falling back, beyond the borders that we laid
Bored and scattered creep alone along the rail
To steal a glimpse of scenes that aren’t for sale
Chorus:
Have you heard
If you crawl back in your shell, well it won’t help you change your world
Push it further
Don’t pull back from the game, boy to cry in a bowl full of hurt
Belly shake awake and choose your fame
Stretching past your cozy hideaway
Step right out and make it play on cue
Peel the static state right back away from you
[Repeat Chorus]
When the feeling’s stale / Don’t walk away
If the bleeding stays beyond this phrase / Don’t walk away
As the moments scrape, grab a change of pace, and claim your space
Don’t walk away
Don’t walk away / Don’t walk away / Don’t walk away / Don’t walk away
[Repeat Chorus]

Dead and Gone
05:08
|
|||
|
Chorus:
When I’m dead and gone, don’t say a prayer for me
Just think about tomorrow, and drink a cup of tea
When I’m dead and gone, you know that I’ll be free
So, think about tomorrow, but don’t say no prayer for me.
Left the backwoods for the city, hopped on the old blue line
Found you in the rail car, catching flies to pass the time
You went left and then I followed, you went right, I held on tight
You went crazy I remember, I drove you there that night
But please forgive me if I say, it’s got to be that way
Cuz sunshine I’m certain, there’s bound to come the day
[Repeat Chorus]
Yesterday I met a stranger, and son he said to me
There ain’t no time to fritter away, you’ll surely make history
I looked up at my mama, her gaze so straight and true
She said boy don’t you worry, because I believe in you
But please forgive me if I say, it’s got to be that way
So, take back your predictions, there’s bound to come the day
[Repeat Chorus]
