I have cried too I have cried too long I have cried too I have cried too long No more sorrow Got to carry on. Found deep water Before I'd even learned to swim Found deep water Before I'd even learned to swim Never thought I'd See the sun again. Once I was a Once I was a man alone Once I was a Once I was a man alone Now I've found a Heart to call my home. Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames No more living Someone else's dreams. I have cried too I have cried too long I have cried too I have cried too long No more sorrow Got to carry on. You almost had me, old lady You almost tied me down good You played the lady in waiting And I waited as long as I could. Too long the songs have been silent Too long the strings have been still I never knew what you wanted And I guess that I never will. Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames Like a Phoenix I have risen from the flames No more living Someone else's dreams. I have cried too I have cried too long I have cried too I have cried too long No more sorrow Got to carry on |

I still recall the place When I first felt yourgypsy wind Playing on my face That summer's long since gone But gypsy winds have ways of staying on. Voices from our past Still insist on arguing That love will never last And though our hearts may turn It's only when you listen that you learn. And I wonder at the ways The strands of love meander Through our close and distant days The blood of passion plays Burns our thirsty souls And chases reason far away... Far away... And still your gypsy wind Will soothe my soul and call me back again. Growing wise with age We come to see the printing Through the pictures on the page Though something's always lost The gain is always tempered by the cost. And I wonder at the ways The strands of love meander Through our close and distant days The blood of passion plays Burns our thirsty souls And chases reason far away... Far away... And still your gypsy wind Will soothe my soul and call me back again |

Living in a house of cards Praying the wind doesn't blow too hard Giving in to differences Straining to keep up appearances. Making believe the thread can be save You're aching to leave but Deathly afraid of letting go The threads entangled you so. Jealousies and legal fees Running away like two refugees Shadowed eyes and alibis Tell you too late you've been victimized. Freedom is near but seems to elude you Trying to change you dreams into What your needs allow It should be easy by now Why is love always the last to know? Falling back on better days Trying your damnedest to laugh You've thrown those childish dreams away It's over, you say, still you ask Why is love always the last to know |

I hear the thunder Three miles away The island's leaking Into the bay The poison is spreading The demon is free And people are running from What they can't even see. Face the fire You can't turn away The risk grows greater With each passing day The waiting's over The moment has come To kill the fire And turn to the sun. They'll take your money And then take your health To line their pockets with Unequaled wealth These men are under The power of gold We won't be safe until we Shut them down cold. Face the fire You can't turn away The risk grows greater With each passing day The waiting's over The moment has come To kill the fire And turn to the sun. The people came to the capitol town One hundred thousand of them Laid their hearts down They screamed in anger And broadcast their fears Just to have them Fall on deaf ears |

How many eyes will you sack in sorrow Seeking to borrow some sight of your own How many lies will you have to suffer Until you discover there's nobody home How many roads will you have to wander How many dead end streets How many dreams will you finally squander Dodging your own defeats. You're wishing on the moon tonight There's not a lucky star in sight Just wishing on the moon tonight. How many doors will you have to open Desperately hoping each one's the last How many more will you close behind you Bitter and blind to the shadows you cast How many fools will you have to follow How many wayward winds How many sins will you have to swallow Until the truth sinks in (That you've been) Wishing on the moon tonight There's not a lucky star in sight Just wishing on the moon tonight You're wishing on the moon. (Repeat first verse and chorus |

Well there's too many windows in this old hotel And rooms filled with reckless pride And the walls have grown sturdy And the halls have worn well But there is nobody living inside Nobody living inside... Gonna pull in the shutters On this heart of mine Roll up the carpets and pull in the blinds And retreat to the chambers that I left behind In hopes there still may be Love left to find Still may be love left to find. Seek inspiration in daily affairs Now you soul is in trouble and requires repairs And the voices you hear at the top of the stairs Are only echoes of unanswered prayers Echoes of unanswered prayers. Well there's too many windows in this old hotel And rooms filled with reckless pride And the walls have grown sturdy And the halls have worn well But there is nobody living inside Nobody living inside... |

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean Higher than any bird ever flew Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens I've been in love with you Stronger than any mountain cathedral Truer than any tree ever grew Deeper than any forest primeval I am in love with you I'll bring fire in the winters You'll send showers in the springs We'll fly through the falls and summers With love on our wings Through the years as the fire starts to mellow Burning lines in the book of our lives Though the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow I'll be in love with you Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean Higher than any bird ever flew Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens I've been in love with you I am in love with you |

I saw her first in a beggar's game
Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame Those people knew her by another name I knew that she'd be mine I knew that she'd be mine. She took me in on a winter's night The air was brittle and the moon was bright My heart was heavy but her touch was light Deep in the dance we wandered Deep in my heart she fell. The candles glistened and the water gleamed She drew a bath and the windows steamed She looked like every woman ever dreamed In the heart of a lonely man. In the heart of a lonely man. She took my blindness and she led me through As night retreated and the daylight grew And with the first rays of the sun I knew Love had another captive Love had another fool. The spell is broken and the chains fall free Finally my heart has come home to me It seems I've waited an eternity. I saw her first in a beggar's game Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame Those people knew her by another name I knew that she'd be mine I knew that she'd be mine. |

Joy at the start Fear in the journey Joy in the coming home A part of the heart Gets lost in the learning Somewhere along the road. Along the road Your path may wander A pilgrim's faith may fail Absence makes the heart grow stronger Darkness obscures the trail. Cursing the quest Courting disaster Measureless nights forebode Moments of rest Glimpses of laughter Are treasured along the road. Along the road Your steps may tumble Your thoughts may start to stray But through it all a heart held humble Levels and lights your way. Joy at the start Fear in the journey Joy in the coming home A part of the heart Gets lost in the learning Somewhere along the road Somewhere along the road Somewhere along the road |
