Without You
Hey you, wake up, get yourself together yeah you, so you think you made it better 'cause you know it's coming at you While your back is turned Look too long and I can't help you So clear your head, find a way home Better make up your mind First you say that you will Then you say you won't Well I'm just trying to figure Try and figure you out How long can this go on Tell me what is wrong And maybe there's a way That we can work it out There must be some kind of way That we can make it right But I, I just can't do it all Without you, without you Hey fool, wise up, better late than never Yeah you, you know that nothing lasts forever Nobody ever told you that your Time is running out Too bad and I can't help you How long can this go on Tell me what is wrong And maybe there's a way That we can work it out There must be some kind of way That we can make it right But I, I just can't do it all Without you, without you The point i'm trying to make You got to give more than you take You gotta give, give more than you take Gotta, gotta, gotta work it out One I Want

If I cannot see you from afar Look into your eyes, that hint of depth Hidden inside If I cannot hear you from afar Whisper in my ear, rest assured that You are near And I know not what it's like The aforementioned For the distance between us As are the stars, I only have you In my imagination In my imagination Just to love you From afar If I cannot kiss you from afar Press against your lips, taste the sweetness Of your breath If I cannot touch you from afar Hold you in my arms, keep you warm and Safe from harm Though our circumstances Cause separation In the absence, there's a presence in my heart I will surrender, I'll surrender to my Quiet contemplation My quiet contemplation I'll just, I'll just love you From afar There must be a better way (ooo-oooh) A better way (ooo-oooh) of, of passing the time I can't seem to get her out Out of my Get her out of my mind (Guitar Solo) I don't know what it's like The aforementioned For the distance between us As are the stars, I only have you In my imagination In my imagination In my imagination In my imagination Just to love you Just to love you Just to love you Yeah! Dirty Water Dog
No candidate would I support His platform could I endorse Another accomplice slinging dirt Campaign promises falling short I don't belong to any race Pledge allegiance to a place No borderline in the sand I'd trace I'm just a sucker for a pretty face Uncomfortable in the realm of the political Position's always been a little left of cynical I'm fundamentally for the individual Preoccupied purely with the physical When heavy is the weight of the world And the river runs a little too deep Like a hound dog chasing a bird Sometimes a certain tom's gotta peep I'm a peek-a-boy, looking at girls And I think I like, I think I like, I like what I see I don't wanna find religion Or another man's opinion I Can't choose what's not my decision When there's only one under the sun There's no need to be denied Chew before swallowing pride I want to live so let me die Oh by the way, what's your sign? Can't comprehend the meaning of the metaphysical I'd rather leave that to your so-called intellectual But what I do know I know feels only natural I'm just a red-blooded heterosexual When heavy is the weight of the world And the river runs a little too deep Like a dirty water doggin' a bird Sometimes a certain tom's he gotta peep I'm a peek-a-boy, looking at girls And I think I like, I think I like, I like what I see (Guitar Solo) When heavy is the weight of the world And the river runs a little too deep Like a dirty water doggin' a bird Sometimes a certain tom's he gotta peep I'm a peek-a-boy, looking at girls And I think I like, like a hound dog, chasin' a bird And I think I like A dirty water dog And I think I like, I think I like, I like what I see Once
Once embraced, can't ever be let go Once revealed, can't ever be not shown Once believed, can't ever lose faith Once shared, can't ever be separate Once sown, once can't ever be not reaped Like the dawn of a brand new day With the power of deity Well, I can feel it inside of me Feel it. Can you feel it? Once born, can't ever be not conceived Once present, can't ever be past Once first, once can't ever be not everlast Returning home of the prodigal Holding the intangible To believe in a miracle Believe it. Can you believe it? Have you ever been touched? Once whoa, really touched? Could it ever be too much? Whoa-oh-oh, can you tell me? Once seen, can't ever lose sight Once dawn, can't ever be not light Once, once felt, once felt Can't ever be untouched The assurance only hope can bring With the conviction of the unseen See it's greater than everything See it, oh can you see it? Have you ever been touched? Once whoa-oh really, really touched? Could it ever be too much? Whoa-ooh-oh oh, can you tell me? Have you ever really touched love once? (Guitar Solo) (Oh!) Oh! Have you ever been touched? Once whoa-oh-oh really touched? Could it ever be too much? I don't know. Did you tell me? Have you ever really touched Once. Whoa-oh really, really touched? Could it ever be too much? Oh-ooh somebody tell me Have you ever really touched Love once? Ah, have you ever really touched Love once? Have you ever really touched love Touched love? Woooo-ooooo Woooo-ooooo Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Wooo-oooo Wooo-oooo Wooo-oooo-oooo Oh, love once. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Fire In the Hole
In a word to the wisdom tooth To tell, or not the truth (yeah) So open up and say ahh-men Rinse cup, and spit again Forked tongue in double speak Pretty soon you just might Spring a leak Inhale before you begin Your iron lung's a bag of wind There's a fire in the hole Fire in the hole There's a fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) Fire Sweet 'n' sour, filiblister Faucet pouring, fresh 'n' bitter Come on smile and say cheese On a count of three Ya got a mindful of decavities Hey! Chew your words, lest you choke You better watch your mouth Wash it out with soap. Yeah! Tongue tied in a tangled web Your bile inside better left unsaid There's a fire in the hole Fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) There's a fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) Fire! Ah, shoot it! (Guitar Solo) Hey-hey-yeah! Huh! Yeah! Hey-hey-yeah! (hey hey hey hey hey) There's a fire in the hole Fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) There's a fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) Fire in the hole (hey hey hey hey hey) There's a fire, fire, fire A fire! Rudder of ship, which sets the course Does not the bit, bridle the horse Great is the forest, set by a small flame Like a tongue on fire, no one can tame Josephina
Josephina, there's so much I want to know I've known you for all of mine But not all of yours You're not a stranger No, nothing could be further I look back and I wonder What you were like, long before Josephina, if I asked you, would you tell me? The fact from the fancy And the dreams in between Tell me a story All about yours truly Photographs from the past Imagine the mystery Didja get your head lost in a daydream? Cinderella, waiting for her charming Did ya break a heart, like little girls often do? Pigtails and painted toes All dressed up in your mother's clothes Can you shine the light? Ah, can you shine the light? Oh, please can you shine some light? Yeah, can you shine the light? Shine the light on a shadow Josephina, would you lay down your defenses? So i can make sense of Those colors fading to grey It's not that you're hiding Something, I'd never imply Yesteryear I may be gone Can't say the same for today Yeah, Josephina! (Guitar Solo) Ah, Josephina! How else am I to know, that all the while There was a mischievous look, behind that smile? It's hard to tell, when innocence comes and goes I'm sure that there were times, life could be unkind Without a shoulder to cry on Can you shine the light? Ah, can you shine the light? Yeah, please can you shine some light? Yeah, can you shine the light? Yeah, can you shine the light? Shine the light on a shadow (Ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah) Year To the Day
I woke up to yet another day Grown to expect, expect more of the same Except for, for a subtle change And that is, I'm slowly fading away Harvest moon, soon will pass Crop is gone, left only chaff A bitter pill, and an overcast A flag unfurled, at half mast Ahhhhh... A year to the day Since you went away A moment in time When you were last mine I'm here standing still Yeah! With more time to kill Hey! I barely survived Yeah, I barely survived Like pouring salt on an open wound Memory filling, filling this empty room I'm as bare, I'm as bare, as a barren womb Still like the air, in a whitewash tomb Ahhhhh... A year to the day Since you went away A moment in time When you were last mine I'm here standing still Hey! With more time to kill I barely survived Yes, I barely survived (Guitar Solo) Ahhhhh... A year to the day Since you went away A moment in time When you were last mine I'm here standing still Been standin' still. With more time to kill Hey! I barely survived I barely survived A year to the day! Year to the day! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! A year to the day! Three sixty-five! Three sixty-five, five, fiiive! Ahhhhh... Ballot Or the Bullet
Give me liberty or give me death No truer words have ever been said Well are you prepared for your very last breath? Don't you dare start what you cannot finish So when we face, face the adversary No longer are we the minority And when history repeats her hour The pendulum will swing, swing into power Though not in vain like our forefathers Freedom, never had no room for cowards For in the end, there will be equality By any means necessary The ballot or the bullet The choice is up to you The ballot or the bullet Tell me what you gonna do The sword or the pen Can be held by the same hand What's it gonna take to liberate? An emancipation, a false proclamation? All these token words that you legislate Sound a little bit absurd. Hey! And a little too late When a house is divided, it just will not stand Once it's decided, a line drawn in the sand Ah! The ballot or the bullet The choice is up to you The ballot or the bullet Tell me what you gonna do The sword or the pen Can be held by the same hand (Guitar Solo) The ballot or the bullet The choice is up to you The ballot or the bullet Tell me what you gonna do The ballot or the bullet The choice is up to you The ballot or the bullet Tell me what you gonna do The sword or the pen can be The sword or the pen can be The sword or the pen can be The sword or the pen can be The sword or the pen can be held, held by the same hand! How Many Say I
Are you ever so silent, when she wanted to talk? Or couldn't keep quiet, when she needed a hug Come on too strong, when a little's too much How many, how many, say I Go on and say yes, and really mean no Would you rather guess, when you just don't know And then say I love you, but aren't willing to show How many, how many, say I How many, how many, say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I Say live and let live, so quick to judge Slow to forgive, when you're holding a grudge Don't always believe, all you need is love How many, how many, say I How many, how many, say I How many, how many, say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I (String Solo) Have you ever looked down when the homeless walked by? Or changed the channel when you saw a hungry child? Know something to be true, then deny it How many, how many, say I How many, how many, say I How many, how many, say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I How many say I, how many say I
